AI for diagnosing and treating brain diseases in older adults
This study uses artificial intelligence to help diagnose and treat brain diseases that affect older adults, such as Parkinson's and Alzheimer's. Researchers will compare AI methods with standard care to see if they can improve diagnosis and treatment.
Jinan, ShandongAges 8–100 - NCT07545473Recruiting
Eye Imaging to Detect Brain Disease Markers
This study uses a special camera to photograph the back of your eye in detail. Researchers believe changes in the eye may reflect brain diseases like Alzheimer's or Parkinson's, and this imaging could help detect these conditions earlier.
Melbourne, VictoriaAges 30 years+ - NCT04701177Enrolling by invitation
Smartphone-based study of brain biomarkers in memory clinic patients
This observational study follows people with (or at risk for) Alzheimer’s-related brain changes and a comparison group without them. It uses clinic visits, cognitive testing, questionnaires, and possibly a spinal fluid test to better understand brain biomarkers and how they relate to thinking and daily life.
Corfu, CorfuAges 45 years+ - NCT07774312Recruiting
Comparing tTIS treatment intervals to standard care for Parkinson's
This study compares different schedules of a non-invasive brain stimulation treatment (called tTIS) to standard medication for Parkinson's disease. It aims to find the best timing for tTIS to improve motor symptoms.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 50–85 - NCT07322887RecruitingPhase 2
Study of sul-238 for early untreated parkinson's disease
This study tests whether an experimental medicine called SUL-238 can improve energy levels in the brain cells of people with early, untreated Parkinson's. It uses a special type of MRI to see if the medicine affects brain energy.
GroningenAges 40 years+ - NCT07703137Enrolling by invitation
NAD Supplement for Parkinson's Disease Study
This study tests whether a supplement called NAD (a natural substance that helps cells produce energy) can improve symptoms in people with Parkinson's disease. You would take the supplement daily for several weeks, and researchers will check your movement, thinking, and overall well-being.
Oklahoma City, OklahomaAges 55–85 - NCT07513441RecruitingPhase 1
Testing Lu AF28996 for Parkinson's disease motor fluctuations
This early-stage trial tests a new medication called Lu AF28996 in Chinese patients with Parkinson's disease who experience predictable on-off episodes (times when medication works well versus poorly). The study aims to see if this drug can help reduce those difficult off periods.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 35–85 - NCT06449404Recruiting
7-Tesla MRI study of Parkinson's disease
This study uses a very powerful 7-Tesla MRI machine to take detailed pictures of the brain in people with Parkinson's disease. The goal is to better understand changes in the brain and possibly find new ways to track the disease.
Beijing, Beijing, ChinaAges 18–80 - NCT07174310RecruitingPhase 3
Prasinezumab for early Parkinson's disease
This study tests a new medication called prasinezumab, given through a vein (IV), to see if it can slow the progression of early-stage Parkinson's disease. It is for people who are on only one Parkinson's medication and have not yet developed motor complications.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 50–85 - NCT04994015RecruitingTeam says not enrolling
Genetic registry for people with Parkinson’s
This study builds a genetics “registry” of people diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease who agree to genetic testing. Your information may help researchers understand why Parkinson’s happens and improve future treatments.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT06742450Recruiting
Comparing two ways to stimulate the brain for Parkinson's
This trial compares two methods of deep brain stimulation (constant current vs constant voltage) for people with Parkinson's who already have the device placed but haven't turned it on yet. The goal is to see which method works better.
BeijingAges 18–75 - NCT06982638Recruiting
Speeding up walking in Parkinson's with brain stimulation
This trial tests if a special type of brain stimulation (called TMS) can help people with Parkinson's disease who experience freezing of gait—when your feet feel stuck to the floor. The goal is to see if this treatment can improve walking and reduce those freezing episodes.
Charleston, South CarolinaAges 50–80 - NCT06701955Recruiting
Reliability of a Fluctuation Scale in Parkinson's
This study tests how consistently a new scale measures 'on-off' fluctuations in Parkinson's disease. If you experience motor fluctuations (times when your symptoms change) and are on stable medication, you may help validate this tool.
GrenobleAges 30–75 - NCT07100171RecruitingEarly Phase 1
GM101 injection for advanced Parkinson's disease
This trial tests an investigational gene therapy injection called GM101 for people with advanced Parkinson's disease whose symptoms are not well controlled by standard medications. The study will see if this treatment can help improve movement and quality of life.
ChangshaAges 40–70 - NCT06154356Recruiting
Watching and imagining movements to help Parkinson's
This study tests whether watching guided movement videos and then imagining those movements can improve walking and movement in people with Parkinson's. It may help if you are in early to moderate stages and don't have serious thinking or health problems.
Karaman, KaramanAges 18–65 - NCT07734181Recruiting
Music Therapy for Parkinson's Disease
This trial tests whether music therapy can help people with Parkinson's disease. It might improve movement, mood, or quality of life.
Arlesheim, Basel-LandschaftAges 50–79 - NCT06638944RecruitingPhase 2

To join, you must already have the specific Medtronic device and show good brain signal and symptom response after surgery.
Omaha, NebraskaAges 19–80 - NCT03025334Recruiting
Brain stimulation study for thinking changes in Parkinson’s
This study tests whether a non-invasive brain stimulation approach (tDCS) can improve thinking and memory in people with Parkinson’s disease. You may be invited because your Parkinson’s is typical and your memory testing shows you do not have dementia.
Winnipeg, ManitobaAges 40 years+ - NCT04496973Recruiting

Screening for alpha-synuclein in early Parkinson’s risk
This study looks for changes in a protein called alpha-synuclein in people who may be in the early “prodromal” stage before Parkinson’s symptoms fully appear. It may help researchers find early markers and understand who is more likely to develop Parkinson’s disease.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for parkinson s disease?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 742 recruiting parkinson s disease 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 s disease 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 s disease 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.
