Parkinson's Disease Paid Clinical Trials in Illinois

Study J3Z-MC-OJAA is a Phase 1/2a, multicenter, open-label, ascending dose, first in-human study that will evaluate the safety of intracisternal LY3884961 administration in patients with moderate to severe Parkinson's disease with at least 1 pathogenic GBA1 mutation. Two dose level cohorts of LY3884961 are planned (Dose Level 1 and Dose Level 2). The duration of the study is 5 years. During the first year, patients will be evaluated for the effect of LY3884961 on safety, tolerability, immunogenicity, biomarkers, and clinical efficacy measures. Patients will continue to be followed for an additional 4 years to continue to monitor safety as well as selected biomarker and efficacy measures. Read Less

A Multi-Center, Controlled Study to Evaluate Use of CereGate Therapy to Reduce Freezing of Gait in Participants Diagnosed with Parkinson's Disease. Read Less

The purpose of this registry is to compile characteristics of world-wide outcomes for the use of Boston Scientific's commercially available Vercise DBS System in the treatment of Parkinson's disease. The utilization of Image Guided Programming (IGP), and other commercially available programming features, used as planning tools for the programming of patients with Boston Scientific's Vercise DBS System are also evaluated. Additionally, the utilization of the DBS Illumina 3D feature that may be used for the programming of patients with Boston Scientific's Vercise DBS Systems is also evaluated. Read Less

This study is a Phase 3 multi-site, randomized, evaluator-masked, study of endurance treadmill exercise on changes in the Movement Disorder Society-Unified Parkinson Disease Rating Scale (MDS-UPDRS) Part III score at 12 months among persons with early stage Parkinson disease. 370 participants will be randomly assigned to 2 groups: 1)60-65% HRmax or 2)80-85% HRmax 4 times per week. The primary objective is to test whether the progression of the signs of Parkinson's disease is attenuated at 12 months in among persons who have not initiated medication for Parkinson Disease (PD) when they perform high-intensity endurance treadmill exercise.

The purpose of this randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study is to assess the efficacy of BIA 28-6156 over placebo in delaying clinical meaningful motor progression over 78 weeks in subjects with Parkinson's disease who have a pathogenic variant in the glucocerebrosidase 1 (GBA1) gene (GBA-PD).

The purpose of this international study is to evaluate long-term safety and effectiveness of Abbott deep brain stimulation (DBS) systems for all indications, including Parkinson's disease, essential tremor or other disabling tremor and dystonia. Read Less

Lewy Body Dementia (LBD) is the second most common form of degenerative dementia, affecting at least 2.4 million US adults, and the overwhelming majority of persons living with LBD (PLBD) are cared for by family caregivers. LBD caregiver strain: 1) exceeds that of non-LBD dementia caregivers; 2) worsens caregiver physical and mental health; and 3) increases the risk of PLBD hospitalization and institutionalization. LBD progression is complicated by combined motor, cognitive, and neuropsychiatric decline, and is punctuated by falls, infections, dehydration, and neuropsychiatric symptoms leading to acute healthcare utilization. Although family caregivers are uniquely positioned to identify and manage these challenges, which may avert emergency department visits and reduce morbidity, many caregivers lack the knowledge, skills, confidence, resources, and support to do so. The study team aims to 1) quantify the impact of PERSEVERE on caregiver knowledge, attitudes, mastery, and strain; 2) identify the intervention and mentor factors determining implementation fidelity; and 3) test the effects of PERSEVERE on PLBD quality of life and healthcare utilization. This will be accomplished in an NIH Behavioral Model Stage II national, randomized, attention-controlled, 12-week trial of PERSEVERE in 502 LBD caregivers in partnership with the Lewy Body Dementia Association, Parkinson's Foundation, and LBD Caregiver Advisors. The study team will match intervention arm caregivers with a trained peer mentor who will coach them through a modular, theory-based curriculum on LBD knowledge and social support. Attention-control participants will receive weekly, curated links to educational materials. The study team will identify immediate and delayed intervention effects, including mediators of strain at 12 weeks, and caregiver strain and PLBD outcomes at nine months. Implementation fidelity and PLBD healthcare utilization will be tracked biweekly. Qualitative methods will explore the intervention- and mentor-specific factors predicting fidelity, mentee outcomes, and retention. Remote recruitment, mentoring, and community engagement strategies will maximize accessibility and inclusion of underrepresented caregiver groups. Results will illuminate the extent to which leveraging prior LBD caregivers as expert interventionists can improve current caregiver outcomes, and in turn, PLBD outcomes. These results will inform future adaptation and dissemination of this model for other conditions. Read Less

This is a 17-week double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized, flexible-dosing, parallel-group, multicenter study designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of suvecaltamide for the treatment of moderate to severe residual tremor in adult participants with Parkinson's disease (PD). The target population represents participants who have tremor that is not adequately controlled by PD medications and that interferes with their activities of daily living (ADL) and/or with their performance of tasks.

In this study, researchers will learn more about a study drug called BIIB122 in participants with early-stage Parkinson's disease (PD). In this study: Participants will take 225 milligrams (mg) of BIIB122 or a placebo as tablets by mouth. A placebo looks like the study drug but has no real medicine in it. Participants will take BIIB122 or placebo 1 time a day for up to a minimum of 48 weeks and a maximum of 144 weeks. Certain medications for PD will be allowed at enrollment for a subset of participants. Participants will have to visit at 2-week intervals between baseline and week 12 and at 4-week intervals between week 12 and week 48 and at 12 week intervals between week 48 and week 144. The main question researchers are trying to answer is if taking BIIB122 slows the worsening of symptoms more than placebo in the early stages of PD. To help answer this question, researchers will use a questionnaire called the Movement Disorder Society-Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale, also known as the MDS-UPDRS. Researchers will use the MDS-UPDRS to learn about participant PD symptoms and how they affect their daily life. Researchers will also learn more about the safety of BIIB122. Read Less
