This study plans to consecutively enroll the patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) who have confirmed amyloid deposition on amyloid imaging and meet the indications for lecanemab administration. After a thorough explanation of lecanemab administration, patients who consent to the treatment would be enrolled. Patients assinged to the treatment arm would receive standard lecanemab treatment (10mg/kg intravenous infusion every two weeks for 18 months) and standard PD care. Patients who do not consent to the administration of lecanemab would receive stadnard care for PD and be monitored their progress without any further intervention.
