Active clinical trials for "Parkinsonian Disorders"

This randomized, trial will tested the hypothesis that nutritional supplementation with whey protein, essential amino acids - mainly leucine - vitamin D and calcium would increase the efficacy of physical rehabilitation in old adults suffering from Parkinson's disease o parkinsonism

This is a phase 3, open-label, multiple-center, non-randomized single dose study to assess the safety and efficacy of [123I]NAV5001 SPECT imaging in aiding in the differentiaion of parkinsonian syndromes from non-parkinsonian tremor.

Objective of the study: To test the efficacy of theta burst cerebellar stimulation on postural instability in progressive supranuclear palsy using a cross-over design and wearing sensors technology Design: Twenty probable PSP patients with no dementia and still able to walk will be recruited for a cross-over sham-controlled study. Each patient will undergo a sham stimulation or a single session of cerebellar theta burst stimulation with a wash out period of at least 14 days. Each patient will be evaluated before and after stimulation by berg balance tests (BBS), Tinetti scale, PSP-rating scale (PSP-RS), and a battery of gait and movement tests. Static balance was assessed by 30-seconds-trials in semitandem and tandem positions with eyes open and closed using wearing sensors technology.

This study will assess the efficacy and safety of AFQ056 in patients that have Parkinson's Disease L-dopa Induced Dyskinesias (PD-LID)

This is a two-center (University of Colorado, University of California San Francisco) community-based comparative effectiveness study of outpatient palliative care for Parkinson's disease (PD) and related disorders (progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP), corticobasal degeneration (CBD), multiple systems atrophy (MSA), Lewy Body Dementia (LBD). In September 2018, the study was amended to also include Alzheimer's disease (AD) and related disorders (Frontotemporal Dementia (FTD), Primary Progressive Aphasia (PPA), Vascular Dementia). It will utilize a randomized stepped-wedge design to compare patient and caregiver outcomes between usual care in the community versus usual care augmented by palliative training and telemedicine support to provide other resources (e.g. social work).

This study is being conducted this study to determine whether injections of Xeomin®, a type of botulinum toxin into the glands that produce saliva (one pair just below and in front of the ear and the other just under the jaw line) are safe and effective to treat excessive saliva, or drooling in patients with Parkinson's Disease (PD)/parkinsonism.

This project aims to clarify the role non-motor symptoms in the development of Parkinson's disease (PD) and to improve diagnostics at very early stages of PD. The project involves multidimensional measures of disease biomarkers together with brain dopamine transporter (DAT) imaging with [123I]FP-CIT single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT).

The purpose of this study is to investigate whether speed-dependent measures of gait can be identified in patients with neurological conditions that affect gait, particularly in subjects with parkinsonian disorders.

Does use of the Mobilaser reduce freezing of gait (FOG) and stride reduction in patients with Parkinson's disease and Parkinsonism.

WestPORTS will recruit a randomly selected population consisting of 25% of all individuals with Parkinson's disease (ICD G209) that have visited any of the seven major outpatient neurology or geriatrics clinics in West Sweden (population 1.7M) during a predefined 12 month period between Sept 2016 and April 2018. Baseline clinical and demographic data will be collected along with a 6 x 24h accelerometry recording using the Parkinson Kinetigraph (Global Kinetics). Repeated data collections will be made with regular intervals of up to 2 years as long as subjects are alive and willing.
