profiles. The TFEB-mediated autophagy enhancement approach (score: 0.66) emerges as the most mechanistically sound, leveraging existing chemical matter and strong biological rationale, though safety concerns around chronic autophagy activation require careful monitoring. The FOG prediction algorithm (score: 0.70) offers the highest feasibility with clear development pathways, manageable costs, and low safety risks, making it ideal for near-term implementation. Personalized DBS programming (score: 0.52) shows promise but faces significant technical challenges in detecting genotype-specific neural signatures and validating clinical utility across different GBA mutations.\\n\\nThe analysis exposes critical knowledge gaps across all hypotheses, particularly the lack of validated biomarkers linking GBA dysfunction to real-time therapeutic targets, and insufficient understanding of how different GBA mutations create distinct pathophysiological signatures. The most promising development strategy involves parallel tracks: immediate implementation of digital biomarker approaches for freezing prediction, careful clinical testing of existing autophagy enhancers in GBA-positive patients with robust safety monitoring, and foundational research to validate genotype-specific neural signatures before investing in personalized stimulation approaches. Prevention strategies in asymptomatic carriers require substantial risk-benefit recalibration given the incomplete penetrance of GBA mutations and potential long-term safety implications.\"\n}\n```",
