PARKINSONS DISEASE (PD)

This study is testing whether transplanting specially grown brain cells into people with Parkinson's disease can improve their movement and reduce symptoms. About 102 participants will be randomly assigned to receive either the cell transplant or a sham surgery for comparison, an…

This large UK trial is testing whether two existing drugs, telmisartan and terazosin, can slow down the progression of Parkinson's disease. It will involve 1,200 people with Parkinson's who are already on standard medication. The trial uses an efficient design to test multiple tr…

This study is testing whether gentle electrical stimulation applied to the ear can improve thinking skills like decision-making and problem-solving. Researchers want to see if this non-invasive stimulation helps both healthy adults and people with Parkinson's disease. Participant…

This study is testing if a new type of video game exercise can improve hand function for people with early-stage Parkinson's disease. Researchers want to see if adding physical objects like blocks and cups to the games works better than digital games alone. The study will involve…

This study is testing whether a safe, non-invasive brain stimulation technique can help people with Parkinson's disease move better and feel less tired. Researchers will use a device that delivers a very mild electrical current to the scalp to stimulate brain areas involved in mo…

This study uses advanced brain scans to examine a recently discovered brain network called SCAN in people with Parkinson's disease. Researchers want to understand if problems in this network contribute to Parkinson's symptoms like movement difficulties. The findings could help id…

This study aims to understand how common and variable a specific gut bacteria gene is in people with Parkinson's Disease who have a history of gastrointestinal problems. Researchers will collect stool samples from 200 participants to measure this gene over time. The goal is to ga…

This study aims to understand why swallowing difficulties, a common and dangerous problem in Parkinson's disease, occur. Researchers will examine 100 Parkinson's patients using swallowing tests, brain scans, and blood tests to find biological markers and see how the brain might t…
