What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed This study
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

The study is aimed at developing Digital Therapeutics (DTx) algorithms for personalized PD treatment and medication plan optimization, based on Real World Data (RWD) collected from patients via digital mobile app and wearable sensors. The study design is observational/noninterventional, prospective, single-arm, aimed at collecting data from wearable sensors for validation of symptom detection algorithms, through (1) a supervised in-clinic motor assessment, performed using validated clinical scales (Visit 3, Visit 4), and (2) an unsupervised, home-based, 6-month (Visit 3 to Visit 4) data collection from wearable devices (passive monitoring) for algorithm cross-validation using patient reported outcomes (PROMs) and remote clinical assessments. The devices used in the study will be a commercial smartwatch (Garmin Vivosmart 5) for inertial data collection and a digital application through which subjects will report PROMs via a digital symptom diary. Screening visits (Visit 1 and Visit 2) will be conducted prior to enrollment to verify eligibility criteria through clinical assessments, the subjects' symptom diary, and by assessing adherence to the use of the study tools provided (i.e., mobile application and smartwatch).

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: 1. Written informed consent (IC) obtained. 2. Age \> 18 years. 3. Male or female patients Meeting the MDS clinical diagnostic criteria for Parkinson's Disease (Postuma et al., 2015) 4. At least one motor symptoms OFF-period each day, excluding early morning akinesia. 5. On treatment with Levodopa 6. Stable Levodopa regimen for 4 weeks before Screening Visit; 7. Levodopa Equivalent Daily Dose (LEDD) \> 400 mg, AND/OR Levodopa Intake \> 2 administration/day; 8. The subject is willing and able to attend study procedures and to use wearable and mobile devices. Exclusion Criteria: 1. Secondary or atypical PD. 2. Cognitive problems which significantly impair his/her ability to give an IC and perform the study tasks. 3. Levodopa Equivalent Daily Dose (LEDD) \> 800 mg, AND/OR Levodopa intake \> 8 administration/day; 4. Any condition that in the opinion of the investigator would interfere with the interpretation of the study results or constitute a health risk for the subject if he/she takes part in the study. 5. Concomitant participation to clinical trials with investigational medicinal products. 6. Failure to show, in opinion of the investigator, acceptable/appropriate use of wearable and mobile device (e.g. weekly average daily wearable wear time \< 8 hours). Having an advanced treatment (including Deep Brain Stimulation, Apomorphine, Duodopa), is not an exclusion criterion, as well as the subject decision or capability to attend the exercise and speech training programs within the mobile app.
