Active clinical trials for "Parkinson Disease"

The primary purpose of this study is to establish a dosage of isradipine CR that is tolerable and demonstrates preliminary efficacy for utilization in future pivotal efficacy studies.

The purpose of this study is to study different kinds of dyskinesias in advanced Parkinson's disease appearing at different levels of levodopa infusion dose. The hypothesis is that different dyskinesias (dystonia, chorea) correlate to different levels of levodopa concentrations, as detected in plasma.

The purpose of this study is: To determine, in the context of a prospective clinical trial, whether stimulation parameters in PD patients treated with DBS, are associated with antidepressant effects. To determine whether these antidepressant effects are related to or independent of changes in the motor features of PD. To establish a computerized database that includes stimulation parameters and clinical parameters in PD patients treated with DBS. To develop a computer-assisted decision making protocol for programming of DBS parameters in both depressed and non-depressed PD patients.

To compare the efficacy of BF2.649 over placebo (12 week Double-Blind Phase) and assess the long term safety and the efficacy maintenance(9 months Open-Label Extension Phase) of BF2.649 in the improvement of excessive daytime sleepiness in patients diagnosed with Parkinson's Disease.

This study is conducted to evaluate the safety and tolerability of the drug product sNN0031, containing Platelet Derived Growth Factor (PDGF), when administered directly into one of the fluid filled cavities in the brain using an implanted catheter and an implanted SynchroMed® II pump. Patients with a diagnosis of Parkinson's disease will be enrolled.

This study will investigate the effect of TCH346 compared to placebo in delaying the need for symptomatic treatment with dopaminergic agents

This study is a multicenter, randomized, double blind, parallel group study of 3 months' treatment with SLV308 administered as a monotherapy in patients with advance stage PD. An open label safety extension to this study is planned as a separate protocol for patients who are willing and eligible to participate.

This is a randomized, placebo-controlled, 3-period crossover, balanced, single-site, third party-blind study of preladenant (SCH 420814) in participants with Parkinson disease (PD) to be conducted in conformance with Good Clinical Practices. This trial will investigate the effects of single doses of preladenant and placebo on the dyskinesia and antiparkinsonian actions of a levodopa infusion. The study will examine 10 mg ("low dose") or 100 mg ("high dose") study drug, given as single, oral administrations in conjunction with intravenous (IV) levodopa infusion and oral carbidopa.

This study will evaluate the effectiveness of atomoxetine in reducing symptoms of depression in people with Parkinson's disease.

Long term safety and efficacy (12 months) of levodopa-carbidopa intestinal gel.
