BACKGROUND: The nigrostriatal system is especially vulnerable to neurodegeneration in Parkinson's disease (PD) and the blood-brain barrier (BBB) is a limiting factor for delivery of therapeutic agents to the brain. This pilot study aimed to demonstrate safety, feasibility and tissue penetration (by 18F-Choline-positron emission tomography (PET)) of MR-guided focused ultrasound (MRgFUS) simultaneous BBB opening (BBB-O) in the substantia nigra (SN) and putamen in PD.
METHODS: Three patients underwent MRgFUS for midbrain and putamen BBB-O. Patients were evaluated clinically and underwent brain MRI with gadolinium (baseline, 24 hours, 14 days and 3 months postprocedure). In two patients, BBB-O was repeated after 2-3 weeks, and 18F-Choline-PET was performed immediately after.
RESULTS: The right SN and putamen were simultaneously opened unilaterally in 3 patients once and the left SN in 1 patient in a different session. No severe clinical or neuroimaging adverse events developed in any patient. 18F-Choline-PET uptake was enhanced in the targeted SN and putamen regions.
CONCLUSION: BBB-O of the nigrostriatal system is a feasible and well-tolerated approach in patients with PD. 18F-Choline-PET uptake indicates penetration into the parenchyma after BBB-O, which suggests that the opening is functionally effective. This minimally invasive technique could facilitate delivery of putative neurorestorative molecules to brain regions vulnerable to neurodegeneration.
