Is gene therapy available as
a treatment?
Gene therapy is not yet available as a treatment option for people with Parkinson’s and is still in
the early stages of clinical research. There are trials currently taking place in humans for new gene therapies for Parkinson’s. These trials are at different stages of development. While most results appear to be encouraging, more research needs to be carried out before we can say if this will be available as a treatment for people with Parkinson’s.
