NCT02136914
This is a multi-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, 2-arm, parallel group study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ADS-5102 extended release (ER) capsules, an investigational formulation of amantadine, dosed once nightly at bedtime for the treatment of levodopa induced dyskinesia (LID) in subjects with Parkinson's disease (PD). The novel pharmacokinetic profile of ADS-5102 is expected to achieve i) maximal concentrations in the early morning through mid-day, when LID can be troublesome, and ii) lower concentrations in the evening, potentially reducing the negative impact of amantadine on sleep. This pharmacokinetic profile could enable higher doses to be tolerated with a once-nightly ER formulation than can be tolerated with an immediate-release formulation. The once-nightly dosing regimen may also provide enhanced convenience and compliance. In a previous clinical study, ADS-5102 met its primary endpoint; LID was significantly reduced as measured by the change in UDysRS score over 8 weeks vs. placebo.
NCT00363727
This study evaluates how effective a new formulation of a marketed drug is in increasing the time to onset of dyskinesia (abnormal twisting, writhing movements) in patients with Parkinson's Disease who have been taking levodopa for less than 2 years.
NCT02066571
Since droxidopa has been approved in Japan for treating freezing of gait in Parkinson's disease patients, this is to confirm and further investigate the safety and efficacy using a similar dose. The possible beneficial effects on cognition in mildly cognitively impaired Parkinson's disease patients will also be tested, since this problem in Parkinson's disease may be associated with decreased brain synthesis of norepinephrine (a neurotransmitter associated with multiple brain functions). During this 11 week study, droxidopa will be slowly titrated up to 600 mg daily. Walking and freezing of gait will be evaluated and rated. Cognitive functions will be evaluated by a computer-based program.
NCT00936676
Eligible participants, who participated in the ADAGIO trial and who sign an approved informed consent form, will be enrolled into the study at their original study locations. participants who have stopped rasagiline therapy and in the opinion of the investigator will gain clinical benefit from restarting treatment can also be considered for enrollment in the Core follow-up study period. Use of any other anti-PD treatment is permitted as deemed necessary by the treating physician (according to the participants clinical status).
NCT01280123
This is a multi-center, double-blind, placebo controlled clinical trial of two dosages of oral pioglitazone (15 milligram(mg) and 45 milligram (mg)) for safety, tolerability, and futility. Subjects who are on stable dose of rasagiline 1 mg/day or selegiline 10 mg/day for at least 8 weeks but no more than 8 months, will be randomized to one of two dosages of oral pioglitazone (15 mg and 45 mg) or matching placebo. The study will measure disease progression by the change in total Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS) score between the baseline visit and 44 weeks.
NCT01744496
This trial is being conducted to compare the impact of Rotigotine and Placebo on Chronic Pain associated with Parkinson's Disease among patients with advanced stages of the disease.
NCT00591344
The goal of this trial is to compare the effect of two different exercise programs on neuro-physiological, motor, functional, and quality-of-life issues in individuals with Parkinson's disease to determine which program is most beneficial.
NCT00522379
The purpose of this study is to show Rotigotine dose response at four doses of Rotigotine used with L-dopa in treating advanced stage Parkinson's disease.
NCT00594165
The objective of this open-label extension is to assess the safety and tolerability of long-term treatment of the rotigotine patch in subjects with early-stage idiopathic Parkinson's disease.
NCT00601523
The general aim of this study is to obtain long-term safety and tolerability data on pramipexole ER, in daily doses from 0.375mg to 4.5mg once daily (q.d), in patients who have previously completed a pramipexole double-blind study in early PD (248.524(NCT00479401) or 248.636(NCT00558025) trial).
NCT00833690
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and tolerability of inosine and its ability to raise urate levels in blood and cerebral spinal fluid in individuals with early Parkinson disease. This will determine whether it is appropriate to proceed with a larger study of inosine's ability to modify the rate of disability progression in PD.
NCT00632736
To evaluate the safety profile of ropinirole XL during long-term treatment in subjects with early and advanced Parkinson's disease
NCT00505687
The objective of this open-label extension is to assess the safety and tolerability of long-term treatment of rotigotine in subjects with idiopathic PD.
NCT01076452
The goal of the second phase of the study is to determine if simultaneous bilateral subthalamic nucleus stimulation or simultaneous bilateral globus pallidus stimulation is more effective in reducing symptoms of Parkinson's Disease.
NCT03306329
This is a randomized, double-blind, two-part placebo-controlled parallel group outpatient treatment study that will utilize standard Parkinson's Disease measures to evaluate the effect of DNS-7801
NCT02224664
This study will be an open label, dose escalation study to investigate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of repeated daily quaque die (QD) doses given over 21 days (Day 3 to Day 23) to sequential cohorts of subjects with Parkinson's disease. Each cohort will have 2 study periods. For each cohort, subjects will enter Period 1 and if they meet criteria, approximately 12 subjects will be enrolled into Period 2 and dosed with PF 06649751. Based on results observed in a previous study, Cohorts 1 and 2 will not be conducted. Cohorts 3 - 6 will test doses uptitrated to 5 mg, 15 mg and 25 mg QD. Doses may be modified based on emerging safety, tolerability and PK data, but the maximum daily dose that will be given in any cohort will have PK predictions at steady state that are anticipated to be below toxicokinetic limits. An option for down titration to the previous dose level is available should the investigator consider that an AE is intolerable. Following down titration, a single up titration to the next dose level may be attempted if the subject remains symptom free for at least 48 hrs. Safety, tolerability and PK data of Cohort 3 will be reviewed prior to initiating the dosing in Cohorts 4 and 5. Available safety, tolerability and PK data up to Day 24 of at least 5 subjects from Cohorts 4 will be reviewed prior to initiating the dosing in Cohort 6.
NCT00357994
The primary objective of this study was to demonstrate the superiority of levodopa - carbidopa intestinal gel over treatment with optimized oral levodopa/carbidopa during 12 weeks.
NCT01738178
Parkinson's disease is a common neurodegenerative disorder in which patients experience progressive motor disability and many disabling non-motor symptoms. Recent studies have consistently found that people who do not use caffeine are at higher risk of developing Parkinson's disease. This suggests that caffeine may have potential as a treatment for PD. In a pilot study of caffeine for daytime sleepiness in PD, there was evident benefit on the motor manifestations of disease. There have been other lines of evidence that have suggested caffeine could be useful in PD. This study is to evaluate the efficacy of caffeine 200 mg BID vs matching placebo for motor and non-motor aspects of disease. This will be in three stages. In the first six-month stage, medications will be held constant, to see whether caffeine does have motor benefits. Then we will perform a four-year extension stage to define if the effects of caffeine persist (or even magnify), and to see if caffeine helps reduce dose of other PD meds and/or prevents their side effects. Finally, we will finish with a six-month stage in which we will place all patients on caffeine - this will allow us to assess caffeine's use in later disease, but more importantly, will assess whether early use of caffeine produces long term changes beyond its immediate effects.
NCT00986414
This phase IIb study is designed to determine the safe and efficacious dose or dose range of AFQ056 for the treatment of patients with moderate to severe Parkinson's disease with L-Dopa induced dyskinesias.
NCT02144220
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the feasibility, efficacy and the value of providing care to individuals with Parkinson disease directly into their homes. The specific aims are: 1. To demonstrate the feasibility of conducting remote evaluations of patients with Parkinson disease nationally; 2. To measure the impact of remote care on each patient's ability to improve his or her quality of life (QoL) and better manage his or her Parkinson disease; and 3. To assess the long-term acceptability to patients in receiving ongoing care remotely via telemedicine.
