No investigational product will be administered in this study, as participants will be treated with the standard of care that medical experts currently consider most appropriate. Parkinson's disease (PD) is a condition that affects the brain and causes problems with movement and other body functions. The symptoms of Parkinson's disease can worsen over time. People with Parkinson's disease may experience shaking (tremor), slow movements, stiff muscles, trouble walking, and problems with balance. They can also have other symptoms, such as difficulty thinking clearly, changes in mood, or difficu
