Good story! There's lots of hope for GDNF throughout the PD research community. Clinical trials were put on hold several years ago when Amgen pulled out; now things are back on track. Better late than never, I guess.

That would be a shame. It had today's date on it. Any idea how old it might be if you are right?

It looks like it is a new story about the same project. The one on the PM website was from when the study was starting; the other is about one of the results.

Yep, it's the old GDNF trial. But revamped by its delivery system. (Partial funding comes from the Cure Parkinson's Trust )
http://www.cureparkinsons.org.uk/professor-steven-gill And it's the same doctor -Dr. Steven Gill - whose original trials using GDNF were successful, except for the catheters, which for this trial have been redesigned. Peg |
