Apomorphine has a more than 20-year history as a therapeutic adjunct in the management of idiopathic Parkinson disease. And yet, no randomized, placebo-controlled clinical trial to show for it. As of July 2018, now there is. In this week's episode of BrainWaves, Dr. Siegler discusses the relevance, strengths, and weaknesses of the TOLEDO trial.

 

Produced by James E. Siegler. Music by Ondrosik and Rod Hamilton. Sound effects by Mike Koenig, Daniel Simion.
