Summary
This trial is testing Exenatide, a diabetes medication, to see if it can help people with Parkinson's Disease by improving their symptoms and slowing down the disease. The study focuses on people with Parkinson's because they might benefit from these potential effects. Exenatide may help the brain function better and protect brain cells, leading to better movement and slower disease progression. Exenatide has shown potential benefits in improving motor and non-motor symptoms in Parkinson's disease in previous studies.
