Active clinical trials for "Parkinson Disease"

The purpose of this study is to describe the following in relation to the safety of Equfina Tablet 50 mg in the post marketing setting: 1. Serious adverse events (SAEs) and adverse drug reactions (ADRs) 2. Unexpected adverse events (AEs) and ADRs not reflected in the precautions for use 3. Known ADRs 4. Non-serious ADRs 5. Other safety and efficacy related information.

The purpose of this study is to clinically validate new measures of the Personal KinetiGraph® (PKG®).

Rehabilitation is crucial in the treatment of people with Parkinson's disease (PD) as it can ameliorate motor and non-motor impairments, improving their clinical profile and quality of life. Considering the complex biological processes occurring in PD brain, the identification of accessible and measurable biomarkers to monitor the events induced by intensive rehabilitation would help in i)testing rehabilitation effectiveness, ii)improving the design of clinical trials and iii)personalizing the rehabilitation strategies by the prediction of patients' responsiveness. The objective of this project is the validation of Raman analysis of saliva and salivary extracellular vesicles (EV) for the differential diagnosis of Parkinson's disease (PD) and atypical Parkinsonism. The proposed diagnostic method can be integrated in the preliminary assessment and monitoring of the patient by providing a quickly and repeatable measurable biomarker. In the end, this will bring tothe personalization of the rehabilitation path and provide an indication on the outcome of the rehabilitation treatment.

Veterans with mid to later stage Parkinson's disease (PD) may not be able to work out as hard as they need to, to prevent brain cell loss. Maybe they could work out longer and more frequently to make up for this during their good times and good weeks and then rest during the bad weeks. We will compare how effective working out a lot one week per month with a break of three weeks is to continuously exercising weekly with no breaks in people with mid stage PD. We will look at how fast they walk per minute, whether they become more physically active, the biochemicals in their blood, and at how stiff their blood vessels are before and after the exercise.

The purpose of the Chinese PD-SNCA Registry(CPD-SNCAR) is to develop a database of patients of Parkinson's disease with a-synuclein (SNCA) gene variants in mainland China.

The purpose of the Chinese Parkinson's disease Registry (CPDR) is to develop a database of patients with Parkinson's disease in China.

Parkinson's Disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disease characterized by a range of disabling motor- and non-motor symptoms caused by a loss of neurons in neuromodulatory brainstem nuclei. Typical motor symptoms include bradykinesia, rigidity and tremor. Non-motor symptoms are diverse and include REM sleep behaviour disorder, hyposmia, autonomic dysfunction, depression, apathy and cognitive impairment. The motor symptoms can in some degree be attributed to degeneration of the substantia nigra (SN) and a deficiency of dopamine (DA) availability, and DA replacement therapy can partially alleviate motor symptoms. The role of nigral degeneration on non-motor symptoms is however less clear. In addition to nigral degeneration, the noradrenergic (NA) locus coeruleus (LC) also undergoes severe degeneration in PD. Again, it is unclear how LC degeneration contributes to motor and non-motor symptoms. Ultra-high resolution structural magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) provides the opportunity to assess alterations of the affected nuclei in detail and functional MRI (fMRI) can map activation in the neuronal populations as a measure of DA and NA function.

The goals of this study are: 1) to identify biomarkers using neuroimaging that are associated with progression rate using statistical methods, and 2) to identify biomarkers that are associated with the differential diagnosis of Parkinson's disease and atypical parkinsonism.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of oral doses of FB418 in healthy adult subjects and healthy elderly subjects.

This is a phase 2, double-blind, multi-center, placebo-controlled clinical study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, efficacy, and PK of FHL-301 in adult patients with early-stage PD. Following screening, qualifying patients who meet all inclusion and exclusion criteria will enter the study and be randomized 1:1 to receive FHL-301 or Placebo at a starting dose of 200 mg BID (30 minutes before the morning and evening meals) during the 3-week titration period. To determine the tolerance of each participant for FHL-301, titration will increase by 200 mg BID every week until the maximum dose of 600 mg BID or the highest tolerated dose of 1200 mg daily is reached and maintained for 1 week. Thereafter, patients who complete the dose Titration Phase of the study will enter the Maintenance Phase and remain on the final titrated dose for up to 48 weeks post titration. If at any stage during the titration phase the participant cannot tolerate the increased dose, the dose will be decreased by 100 mg BID weekly until the highest tolerated dose is reached.
