Active clinical trials for "Parkinson Disease"

Parkinson's disease (PH); it occurs due to dopamine deficiency due to the loss of dopaminergic neurons in a degenerative process in the substantia nigra found in the middle brain; resting tremor, bradykinesia, trunk and extremities rigidity, mask facial and postural instability characterized by a neurodegenerative disease. These findings are basic and also motor symptoms of Parkinson's Disease. Non-motor symptoms include many problems ranging from autonomic dysfunction to sensory symptoms. Treatment of Parkinson's disease requires a multidisciplinary approach such as medical treatment, physiotherapy and rehabilitation, surgical treatment. Physiotherapy programs applied to patients with Parkinson's disease include classical physiotherapy methods and neurophysiological based methods. Spinal stabilization is an important concept for proper control of body balance and extremity movements. Spinal stabilization training was based on biomechanics, neurophysiology and physiotherapy research. Stabilization exercises, which form the basis of spinal stabilization training, increase the strength and endurance of the postural and stabilizing muscles using the basic principles of motor learning and improve stability control in stable and unstable positions, provides postural smoothness. The cervical region is one of the most affected regions of the musculoskeletal system due to the intensive proprioceptors. Although studies have been carried out to investigate the effect of spinal stabilization exercises in Parkinson's patients, there is no study on the effect of cervical region stabilization exercises in the literature despite these important connections of the cervical region. For these reasons, this study is planned to investigate the effects of cervical spinal stabilization exercises on spinal posture, cervical proprioception and postural instability in Parkinson's patients. Hypothesis 1: When cervical spinal stabilization exercises are added to the traditional physiotherapy program in Parkinson's patients, it will be more effective in correcting spinal posture. Hypothesis 2: When cervical spinal stabilization exercises are added to the traditional physiotherapy program in Parkinson's patients, cervical proprioception will develop better. Hypothesis 3: In the case of Parkinson's patients, when the cervical spinal stabilization exercises are added to the traditional physiotherapy program, postural stability may be more pronounced.

Objective of this study is to investigate the efficacy, safety and pharmacokinetics of KDT-3594 in patients with early Parkinson's disease without a concomitant medication of L-dopa.

Individualization of exercise is recommended but rarely performed in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD). Unusually High Intensity and Individual Sensor Motor with Visuomotor Mobility Trainer The clinical symptoms, mobility and posture of PD patients. After 3 weeks of intensive treatment, treated patients and the control group were subjected to a two-year observation. Objectives: The effect of the unusually highly intense and strictly individualized sensomotor and visuomotor agility program was determined for the clinical symptoms, mobility and stability of non-demented PD patients with a two-year follow-up. Detection and comparison of results of patients undergoing biphasic maintenance with the results of intensively treated patients and the control group. Patients were recalled every 3 months after the first intensive examination and one year after a one-year control. The results of the active group were continuously compared with the results of the passive and control groups, thus determining the effectiveness of our treatment and the deterioration of the other groups in life-quality. The treated groups will be divided into two. One Parkinson's group takes part in a treadmill treatment that takes place 3 times a week for 2 years. The other group does not undergo a special series of exercises after 3 weeks of intensive therapy. Main outcome measures: Movement disorder Society Unified Parkinson Disease Rating Scale, Motor Experiences of Daily Living, a measure sensitive to changes in a broad spectrum of PD symptoms. In group time, repeated measurements of variance analysis were compared to MDS-UPDRS M-EDL, Beck Depression Score, PDQ-39, EQ5D VAS, Schwab & England Scale for Parkinson's Disease. The TUG test and 12 static posturographic measurements are compared and compared to the healthy group as a standard. An at-limit and individualized sensorimotor and visuomotor agility exercise program vs. standard care, will improve non-demeted, stage 2-3 PD patient's clinical symptoms, mobility, and postural stability by functionally meaningful margins. As a long-term solution, a follow-up treatment can slow down the progression of clinical symtoms.

This phase 2b study is designed as multicentre, multinational, randomized, double blind, parallel group and placebo controlled with three doses of Bavisant (0.5, 1, and 3 mg/d) in subjects with excessive daytime sleepiness with Parkinson's disease.

Patients with Parkinson's disease present motor dysfunctions such as stiffness, tremor, postural instability and bradykinesia, which leads to alterations of balance, necessitating specialized physiotherapeutic treatment. In this way this study aims to determine the effectiveness of two tools used in physiotherapy, kinesiotherapy and the Nintendo Wii. 45 patients will be evaluated through the Berg Balance Scale, Dynamic Gait Index, Timed up and go and PDQ-39, and will then be randomized to receive 16 sessions of Exercises or Nintendo Wii alone or together. After this period the patients will be reassessed to verify the effects of the techniques.

This is a Phase I/II randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multiple rising dose study in patients with stable idiopathic Parkinson's disease (PD) to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of ITI-214.

Patients with Parkinson's disease have internal rhythm dysfunction, which may affect the rhythmic movements such as walking. Poor regularity of the rhythmic movement may lead to freezing of gait. This study will apply rhythmic auditory cues on the stepping-in-place training and the investigators will examine if the behavior and neuroelectrophysiology would change after auditory cueing training. The investigators hypothesize the variation of rhythmic movements such as walking and stepping-in-place will be reduced, and the cortical excitability would be modulated after training.

This is a study of single ascending intravenous doses of MEDI1341 or placebo in up to 48 healthy volunteers, aged 18 to 65 years. The study will include up to 6 planned cohorts; each cohort will comprise 8 participants. Each participant will receive a single 60 minute intravenous infusion of MEDI1341 or placebo and will undergo scheduled assessments over a period of 13 weeks. The main aim of the study is to assess the safety and tolerability of single doses of MEDI1341 in healthy volunteers.

The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy of pimavanserin for the treatment of depression in adults with Parkinson's disease.

Robot-assisted gait training can improve gait ability of patients with Parkinson's disease by repeating a normal gait pattern with high intensity. This study is a randomized controlled trial to investigate the effect of robot-assisted gait training on walking ability and functional connectivity of brain in patients with Parkinson's disease using an exo-skeletal robot.
