Parkinson’s Disease (PD)

The Accelerating Medicines Partnership® Parkinson’s Disease (AMP® PD) launched in 2018 with the goals of identifying and validating the most promising biological targets for therapeutics, and accelerating the development of novel therapies. The program is providing the resources and tools needed to determine which biomarkers show the greatest potential for predicting Parkinson’s Disease diagnosis, progression, and potential therapeutic targets.

To address these goals, the AMP PD program performed large-scale harmonization of previously collected clinical data and analyzed biospecimens from over 10,000 subjects. Whole genome sequencing, transcriptomics, proteomics, and post-mortem tissue sequencing are now publicly available for use by the scientific community. This resource enables researchers to pursue large-scale biomarker discovery, dissect new targets and disease subtypes, track and predict disease progression, and identify biomarkers of Parkinson’s progression and assess their potential as targets for therapies. The AMP PD program also collaborated with the Global Parkinson’s Genetic Program (GP2) to bring their genotyping data from 150,000+ international patients onto the AMP PD platform to provide a one-stop shop for Parkinson’s Disease omics data.

Data, Analyses & Tools:

• — Contains data from cerebrospinal fluid, RNA, plasma, DNA, and postmortem brain samples from more than 10,000 Parkinson’s disease patients and healthy controls accessible to academic and industry researchers for the identification and validation of biomarkers for Parkinson’s disease.
