Evaluation of the Use of Machine Learning Techniques to Classify Neurodegenerative PARKinsonian Syndromes (Artificial Intelligence) (PARKIA)

November 28, 2023 updated by: Antoine VERGER, Central Hospital, Nancy, France

The diagnosis of Parkinson's disease (PD) relies mainly on clinical observation of the patient, looking for the three characteristic symptoms and sometimes remains a real challenge. Machine Learning (ML) algorithms could help to diagnose PD early and differentiate idiopathic PD from atypical Parkinsonian syndromes.

In this context, the work of Castillo-Barnes' team provided a set of imaging features based on morphological characteristics extracted from DaTSCAN® or Ioflupane (iodine-123-labeled radiopharmaceutical) single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) scans to discern healthy participants from participants with Parkinson's disease in a balanced set of SPECTs from the "Parkinson's Progression Markers Initiative" (PPMI) data base.

The team of a study evaluated the classification performance of Parkinson's patients and normal controls when semi-quantitative indicators and shape features obtained on the dopamine transporter (DAT) by Ioflupane (123I-IP) single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) are combined as a machine learning (ML) feature.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) based methods can improve diagnostic assessments. Several dopaminergic imaging studies using Artificial have reported accuracy of up to 90% for the diagnosis of PD.

These automated approaches use machine learning methods, based on textural analyses, to (i) differentiate PD and healthy subjects, (ii) differentiate PD and vascular parkinsonism, and (iii) distinguish between different forms of atypical parkinsonism.

A study conducted in 2 centers using a linear support vector machine (SVM) model discriminated patients with PD and healthy subjects with an accuracy of 82.5%.This performance is similar to visual assessment by nuclear physicians A linear SVM model based on voxel values of statistical parametric images was able to differentiate PD from vascular parkinsonism with an accuracy of 90.4%. The Nancy team has extensive experience in the detection of PD in SPECT and SPECT/CT scans with Ioflupane or DaTSCAN™

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years to 85 years (Adult, Older Adult)

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Accuracy of the algorithm
Time Frame: 2 months
Accuracy of the algorithm implemented for the new data in terms of predicting the type of atypical parkinsonian syndrome.
2 months

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Comparison of two networks
Time Frame: 2 months
Comparison of the performance of the semi-supervised network with the supervised network, to recognize the importance of unlabeled data in learning
2 months
Analyze the robustness of the network
Time Frame: 2 months
Analyze the robustness of the network to different data (data from different gamma camera models)
2 months

Study Major Dates

Study Start (Actual)

Study Start

The actual date on which the first participant was enrolled in a clinical study. The "anticipated" study start date is the date that the researchers think will be the study start date.
December 20, 2021

Primary Completion (Actual)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.
