Active clinical trials for "Parkinson Disease"

This study is a double-blinded randomized study examining the effectiveness of the dual-site repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation on Freezing of Gait (FOG) in patients with Parkinson's disease. The investigators hypothesize that treatment using magnetic stimulation on double site (including M1-LL and SMA) will improve FOG and gait symptoms in patients with Parkinson's disease.

This study investigates the safety and tolerability of drug IkT-148009 in untreated Parkinson's disease volunteers (30 to 80 years old). It also looks at the pharmacokinetics of IkT-148009 in the body and evaluates the effect of IkT-148009 on motor and non-motor features of the disease. This 12 week study is designed to be 3:1 randomized across 3 doses of IkT-148009 or placebo. Each participant will self-administer one of 3 doses or placebo of IkT-148009 once daily (QD) with food for 12 weeks. For more information, visit our website: www.the201trial.com

The purpose of this pilot study is to generate preliminary data on the impact of the dietary protein pattern on markers of skeletal muscle health and drug efficacy in Parkinson disease.

Intermittent theta burst stimulation (iTBS) is an emerging non-invasive neuron regulation technique, which is widely used in neuropsychiatry for a variety of diseases and is widely accepted by patients due to its non-invasive, operable and relatively precise localization. Combining the results of previous studies and our group's previous research, sixty qualified PD patients would be enrolled to conduct a prospective single-center randomized double-blind sham controlled clinical trial to verify the long-term curative effects of iTBS treatment protocol and explore the neuron-protection of iTBS on neuronal loss of PD patients.

This clinical study intends to confirm the results of previous studies showing the positive effect of dance on patients with Parkinson's disease on both mental and physical health via a randomized controlled trial. Patients will be randomized into the intervention group (dance courses in addition to standard care) or in the control group (standard care).

Parkinson's disease affects 1 in 100 people over the age of 60. Parkinson's disease (PD) is a progressive disease of the nervous system that affects movement, produced by the destruction of dopaminergic neurons found in a region of the brain called the basal ganglia Over time, different strategies have been developed to treat and slow the progress of the disease, including pharmacological, rehabilitative and even surgical treatments. Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is a brain stimulation technique that delivers a low-intensity electrical current to the scalp, usually between 1 and 2 mA over approximately 5 to 30 minutes. The tDCS technique is used with the aim of enhancing a specific brain activity through the neuromodulation of neuronal excitability. In pathologies such as PD, these therapies have been shown to induce immediate after-effects in the brain that translate into reduced gait freezing and improvements in executive function and mobility. In addition, the combined effects of tDCS and physical therapy on the walking ability of PD patients have been studied, where it was shown that anodic tDCS and physiotherapy could be used as a combination treatment to improve patients' gait speed. Another potential therapeutic tool in the treatment of PD consists of the use of sound stimulation with beat frequencies similar to the step. Specifically, this technology is characterized by presenting two tones of different frequencies for each ear in order to influence the mood and mental performance of the listener. This protocol is proposed in order to evaluate the effect of tDCS combined with auditory and binaural stimulus strategies during gait therapy in patients with Parkinson's disease.

This study will investigate the impact of three common exercise modalities, cardiovascular, resistance, and multimodal (i.e., a combination of the previous two) training, on sleep quality and architecture in persons with Parkinson's disease (PD). Furthermore, the project will investigate whether the potential positive exercise-induced changes in sleep are associated with improvements in different quality of life (QoL)-related aspects. Participants will perform either cardiovascular training (CT), resistance training (RT), multimodal training (MT), or will be allocated to a control condition (i.e., waiting list - CON) for 12 weeks. Training will be performed three times/week. The assessments will be conducted at baseline, post-intervention, and follow-up (i.e. 8 weeks after the intervention) by assessors blinded to the participants' group allocation.

The goal of this study is to test KM-819 in halting or slowing the progression of Parkinson's disease. The study evaluates the safety and tolerability of multiple ascending doses of KM-819 in healthy older adults and participants with Parkinson's disease.

The purpose of the present research is to examine the effectiveness of a non-invasive, vibrotactile stimulation protocol, known as coordinated reset (CR), for the alleviation of motor symptoms in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD). PD patients exhibit rigidity, slowness (bradykinesia) and poverty (akinesia) of movement as well as other symptoms. Treatment for PD is either pharmacological (first line) or invasive deep brain stimulation. The non-invasive, vibrotactile stimulation approach uses a novel stimulation pattern to disrupt the pathophysiological mechanism that is responsible for PD symptoms and thus restore motor function.

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of PDM608 in healthy adult subjects.
