Hydroxychloroquine (HCQ)
The intervention involves hydroxychloroquine (HCQ), administered orally in 200 mg tablets, with a dosing schedule of 200 mg twice daily (400 mg per day). The treatment duration is 48 weeks, after which participants will enter a 4-week safety follow-up period. HCQ will be taken alongside stable doses of Parkinson's disease (PD) medications, with no anticipated changes during the study. Monitoring for adverse events, laboratory assessments, and efficacy evaluations will occur regularly throughout the 12-month period. The study does not include a placebo group or other treatment arms.
