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.

Summary

This study tests whether an online self-management program can help people with early-stage Parkinson's disease maintain their daily activities and quality of life as well as in-person task training. One hundred participants aged 45-70 will be split into three groups: online program, on-site training, or no treatment. The goal is to see if the online option is a practical alternative to clinic visits.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
behavioral interventions: online self-management program and on-site task-related training
What this could lead to
If successful, this could show that online self-management is as effective as in-person training, offering a convenient way for people with early Parkinson's to maintain daily function and quality of life.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage trial with only 100 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The online program's success depends on participants sticking with it at home, and there is no guarantee it will outperform no treatment.

Expected to finish

Dec 2027

An estimate. End dates often move.

Lead sponsor

Other sponsor

The registry's catch-all category, for sponsors it does not file as a company, a government agency, or a research network.
