NCT02642393
A multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, phase 3 trial to determine whether oral inosine dosed to moderately elevate serum urate (from ≤5.7 mg/dL to 7.1-8.0 mg/dL) over 2 years slows clinical decline in early PD. Clinical decline will be assessed as change in the primary outcome variable of the Movement Disorders Society-Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (MDS-UPDRS), a composite scale comprising patient- and clinician-reported outcomes.
NCT03205488
This study will assess the safety and tolerability of daily oral administration of nilotinib (150-300mg once daily) in Parkinson's Disease.
NCT03710707
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of multiple oral doses of DNL201 in subjects with Parkinson's disease.
NCT03037203
This study is a 4-week, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, ascending dose, 4-period crossover study designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, efficacy, and PK of JZP-110 (75, 150, and 300 mg) in the treatment of excessive sleepiness in adult subjects with idiopathic PD.
NCT00105521
The purpose of this study is to test multiple doses of sarizotan to establish a dose with maximal safety and efficacy for treating treatment associated dyskinesia in Parkinson's disease participants.
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.
NCT00632736
To evaluate the safety profile of ropinirole XL during long-term treatment in subjects with early and advanced Parkinson's disease
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.
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.
NCT02365012
This study will evaluate whether treatment with the α1-agonist, midodrine, reduces subjective orthostatic lightheadedness as measured by the Non-Motor Symptoms Scale for Parkinson's Disease (NMSS) questionnaire, in patients with (positive control group, OH) or without documented orthostatic hypotension(orthostatic intolerance, OI). It will also demonstrate the effect of treatment with an α1-agonist, midodrine, on beat-to-beat blood pressure and heart rate response during Valsalva maneuver (measured by Continuous Non-invasive Arterial Pressure, CNAP) in patients with OI or OH and evaluate the relationship to symptom improvement.
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.
NCT01096186
The purpose of this study is to determine the long term safety and clinical utility of IPX066 in subjects with Parkinson's Disease.
NCT00062738
The goal of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of two antidepressants--nortriptyline and paroxetine, compared to placebo in patients with Parkinson's disease and depression.
NCT01167608
Parkinson's disease (PD) is the second most common neurodegenerative disorder in the elderly. In most people, the illness is complicated by co-occurring psychiatric problems such as depression and anxiety. These non-motor concerns negatively affect the course and management of the disease, often leading to poor outcomes for both patients and their families. Despite these deleterious consequences, psychiatric symptoms in PD are both underreported by patients as well as under-recognized and under-treated by health care providers. The primary purpose of this study is to identify and describe barriers to mental healthcare utilization for people with Parkinson's disease. Secondary objectives include the assessment of attitudes and preferences regarding the need for mental health services in the PD community and the acceptability of telehealth interventions as a method for improving access and quality of care. In order to accomplish these aims, participants will be asked to fill out an anonymous survey which will take about 15-30 minutes to complete. To best accommodate PD patients with varying levels of disability, participants will have the option to complete the survey online, on paper, or over the phone. The information obtained from this study will be used to support future treatment development efforts (i.e., phone and internet based interventions, community based trainings with local providers) intended to improve access and quality of mental health care for people with PD. To the best of the investigators knowledge, this is the first study to systematically examine barriers to mental healthcare utilization in PD in a national sample.
NCT01130493
This is a study to compare the efficacy of IPX066 and CLE in subjects with advanced Parkinson's disease.
NCT02871427
This study seeks to evaluate the long-term safety and effectiveness of nelotanserin for the treatment of visual hallucinations (VHs) and Rapid Eye Movement (REM) Sleep Behavior Disorder (RBD) in subjects with Lewy body dementia (LBD).
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.
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.
NCT01491932
This study is to evaluate long-term safety, tolerability and efficacy for AFQ056 in patients who have completed an AFQ056A study in Parkinson's disease L-dopa induced dyskinesias (PD-LID).
