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
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early This study
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This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.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

This trial tests whether adding augmented reality (AR) to treadmill training can help people with Parkinson's disease who have trouble walking and are at risk of falling. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of three groups: treadmill training with AR, treadmill training with a mental dual-task, or treadmill training alone. Over three weeks, researchers will compare the effects on falls, walking, freezing, and attention for three months to see if AR offers extra benefits.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Augmented reality treadmill training using the C-Mill device, compared with dual-task treadmill training and standard treadmill training
What this could lead to
If effective, this approach could offer a new rehabilitation strategy to reduce falls and improve gait in people with Parkinson's disease.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage trial, and the benefits may not be lasting or may not apply to all patients. The training requires regular sessions and may not be widely accessible.
