This study looks at how people with Parkinson's disease regulate their actions. It will test your behavior during 'on' periods (when medication is working well) to understand decision-making and movement control.
Dallas, TexasAges 18–80 - NCT06542991Recruiting
Transcranial magnetic stimulation for Parkinson's disease
This study tests whether repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) can help people with Parkinson's disease. You will receive rTMS and be evaluated for changes in movement and thinking.
Hefei, AnhuiAges 40 years+ - NCT06570824Recruiting
Can repetitive TMS help with levodopa-induced dyskinesia?
This study tests whether a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called repetitive TMS can reduce the involuntary movements (dyskinesia) that some people with Parkinson's disease experience as a side effect of their levodopa medication. If you have Parkinson's and bothersome dyskinesia when your medication is working, this trial may be an option.
HvidovreAges 18–80 - NCT06683365RecruitingPhase 1
Nerve graft trial for Parkinson's or MSA
This trial tests whether grafting a piece of your own leg nerve into a specific part of the brain can improve symptoms of Parkinson's disease or multiple system atrophy (MSA). It aims to help people whose movement problems are moderate but not too severe.
Lexington, KentuckyAges 40–75 - NCT06690931Recruiting
Brain training with electrical stimulation and virtual reality for Parkinson's
This study tests a new type of therapy that combines brain training (neurofeedback), mild electrical stimulation to help with movement, and virtual reality exercises. It aims to improve walking and movement for people with Parkinson's disease.
Schiedlberg, Upper AustriaAges 40–80 - NCT06942533Recruiting
Using SpiroGym app to help Parkinson's breathing
This trial tests whether using a mobile app that gives visual feedback while doing breathing exercises can improve symptoms in people with Parkinson's disease. It may help you if you are on stable medication.
PragueAges 40–80 - NCT06960096Recruiting
Cognitive decline after deep brain stimulation: an MRI study
This study uses MRI scans to see how deep brain stimulation (DBS) affects thinking and memory in people with Parkinson's disease. It may help researchers understand why some people experience cognitive changes after DBS surgery.
Charleston, South CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT06997484RecruitingPhase 1
Testing safety of HL-400 in healthy adults
This study tests a new drug called HL-400 for the first time in people. It checks how safe the drug is and how the body handles it, to see if it could be developed for future patients.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18–65 - NCT07044973Recruiting
Focused ultrasound for Parkinson's disease tremor
This trial uses focused ultrasound to treat tremor and movement problems in Parkinson's disease. It targets a specific brain area without surgery, and may help if your symptoms are worse on one side and not fully controlled by medication.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 22 years+ - NCT07145190Recruiting
Starting Sublingual Apomorphine for Parkinson's OFF Episodes
This study looks at how patients start and adjust a new medicine (sublingual apomorphine, or SL-APO) for Parkinson's disease OFF episodes. OFF episodes are times when Parkinson's symptoms come back between medicine doses. If you are about to start SL-APO for the first time, this trial may be a good fit.
BerlinAges 18 years+ - NCT07172295Recruiting
Low-intensity focused ultrasound for hand tremor
This study uses low-intensity focused ultrasound to stimulate a deep brain area and reduce hand tremors. It is for people with Parkinson's disease, essential tremor, or dystonic tremor whose medications don't work well enough.

- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 496 recruiting parkinson disease (disorder) studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a parkinson disease (disorder) trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a parkinson disease (disorder) trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
