How to Get Started: Identifying the Critical Ingredients to Improve Gait Initiation in Parkinson Disease
The purpose of this study is to understand the treatment approach (i.e., targeting gait or targeting the postural adjustment prior to gait) that is most effective at improving gait initiation dynamics in people with Parkinson disease. Ten adults with idiopathic Parkinson disease who self-report difficulty initiating gait will complete the study. The investigators will be using a randomized crossover design, where the participants will participate in two series of training (i.e., postural trainin ...
A Study to Assess the Safety of BIIB122 Tablets and if it Can Slow the Worsening of Early-Stage Parkinson's Disease in Participants Between the Ages of 30 and 80
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 part ...
Analysis and Suppression of Tremor During Grasp Using Ultrasound Imaging and Electrical Stimulation
Individuals experiencing tremors face difficulty performing activities of daily living caused by involuntary oscillation of the muscles in the hands and arms. Current solutions to help suppress tremors include medication, surgery, assistive devices and lifestyle change. However, each of these has a drawback of its own including cost and unwanted side effects. Aside from the solutions listed, it has been shown that functional electrical stimulation(FES) is a possible solution to help suppress tre ...
Investigating Central Neurophysiologic Correlates of Non-Motor Symptoms of Parkinson's Disease
This is a randomized, single-blinded, triple crossover study focused on determining the feasibility of using transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) for treatment of Parkinson's disease related autonomic dysfunction and depression. Participants will undergo TMS to three brain regions: medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) (experimental site), dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) (alternative experimental site), or primary sensory cortex (S1) (control site) in a triple crossover design. Participants ...
STEM-Parkinson's Disease
This is a double-blinded, controlled, randomized clinical trial (RCT) to establish the safety and efficacy of a non-invasive neuromodulation device for treating symptoms associated with Parkinson's disease.
Use of a Non-Invasive Brainstem Neuromodulation Device to Improve Neurovascular Status in Parkinson's Disease
This study is a single-site, double-blinded, randomized clinical trial designed to elucidate mechanism(s) of action for symptomatic benefits observed in Parkinson's disease (PD)
Flexible-Dose, Adjunctive Therapy Trial in Adults With Parkinson's Disease With Motor Fluctuations
The purpose of this study is to assess the effect of tavapadon on the change from baseline in total daily hours of "on" time without troublesome dyskinesia in L-Dopa-treated participants with Parkinson's Disease (PD) who are experiencing motor fluctuations.
Fixed-Dose Trial in Early Parkinson's Disease (PD)
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the clinical efficacy, safety and pharmacokinetics (PK) of 2 fixed doses of tavapadon and placebo in participants with early PD.
Trial of Parkinson's And Zoledronic Acid
This home-based study is a randomized (1:1) placebo-controlled trial of a single infusion of zoledronic acid-5 mg (ZA) for the prevention of fractures in men and women aged 60 years and older with Parkinson's disease and parkinsonism with at least 2 years of follow-up. A total of 3500 participants will be enrolled and randomized in the United States. Participants, follow-up outcome assessors, and study investigators will be blinded to assigned study treatment. This trial is funded by the Nationa ...
Rostock International Parkinson's Disease Study (ROPAD)
Rostock International Parkinson's Disease Study - An International, multicenter, epidemiological observational study aiming at identification of LRRK2-positive patients, the recruitment of 25,000 PD participants and the establishment of a candidate biomarker in the LRRK2-positive cohort.
Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) Retrospective Outcomes Study
The primary objective of this study is to characterize real-world clinical outcomes of Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) using retrospective review of de-identified patient records.
OCTA in Mild Cognitive Impairment and Alzheimer's Disease
This study aims to develop and evaluate biomarkers using non-invasive optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) to assess the structure and function of the retinal microvasculature in persons with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and Alzheimer's Disease (AD), Parkinson's Disease (PD) or other neurodegenerative disease, multiple sclerosis, and Huntington's disease.
