Progressive supranuclear palsy

This early-phase trial will test a new radioactive tracer called 18F-FCOB04 in 40 people with neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's or Parkinson's. The tracer targets a brain protein called MAO-B and is used with PET scans to see if it can help diagnose these conditions. Th…

This study will test whether measuring a specific abnormal protein (alpha-synuclein) in spinal fluid can reliably distinguish dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB) from Alzheimer's disease. Researchers will collect samples and perform cognitive tests on 286 older adults with suspected …

Progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) causes problems with movement, thinking, and behavior, including impulsivity that can lead to falls. Researchers are testing a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) aimed at the right in…

Researchers are studying whether navigational memory fades before other spatial memory in people with Parkinson's disease and related conditions. The pilot includes 80 participants: those with mild or advanced Parkinson's, those with parkinsonism, and healthy volunteers. Particip…

This observational study tests whether wearable sensors and digital health tools can reliably measure falls, movement, speech, and thinking skills in people with progressive supranuclear palsy, Parkinson's disease, or multiple system atrophy. Participants wear a pendant sensor an…

This study will test whether wearable sensors can accurately monitor movement problems in people with progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) and dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB). About 60 participants will wear small sensors on their chest, ankles, and wrists while doing simple task…

This observational study will enroll 200 people—100 with Parkinson's disease, 50 with related conditions, and 50 healthy controls—to find molecular markers in blood, urine, and stool that can distinguish Parkinson's from atypical parkinsonism. Participants provide samples and und…

This study will test a wearable device called Syde® in 30 people with progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP-R). The device tracks movement and activity during daily life. Researchers want to see if patients find it easy to use and if the data matches standard clinic tests. The goal…
