Recruiting studies
- NCT06883266Recruiting
Brain stimulation for movement and fatigue in Parkinson's
This study tests whether a gentle brain stimulation technique called tDCS (transcranial direct current stimulation) can help improve movement and reduce fatigue in people with Parkinson's disease. It's an option for those who are not using deep brain stimulation and don't have certain other health conditions.
Fargo, North DakotaAges Any age - NCT06891703RecruitingEarly Phase 1
PET imaging study for Parkinson's and related conditions
This trial uses a new imaging agent (like a dye) to see signs of Parkinson's disease in the brain. If you have Parkinson's or a related condition like Lewy body dementia or multiple system atrophy, this scan may help researchers better understand these illnesses.
SolnaAges 20 years+ - NCT06906276Recruiting
Brain activity during walking in atypical Parkinson's
This study looks at brain activity while walking in people with atypical Parkinsonian syndromes like PSP or MSA. It may help understand how these conditions affect walking and balance.
Solna, SolnaAges Any age - NCT06932692Recruiting
Brain network analysis using 7-Tesla MRI in DBS patients
This study uses advanced brain imaging (7-Tesla MRI and MEG) to understand how deep brain stimulation (DBS) affects brain networks in people with Parkinson's disease or essential tremor. It helps doctors learn how DBS works so they can improve treatment in the future.
Amsterdam, North HollandAges 18 years+ - 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 - NCT06949670Recruiting
Alpha-synuclein PET scan for Parkinson's disease
This trial uses a special brain scan (PET/CT) to look at a protein called alpha-synuclein in people with Parkinson's disease. The goal is to learn more about the disease and how it affects the brain.
Hefei, AnhuiAges 18–80 - NCT06951906RecruitingPhase 4
Brain imaging study of freezing of gait after deep brain stimulation
This trial is for people with Parkinson's disease who experience freezing of gait (feeling like your feet are stuck to the floor) and are already scheduled to have deep brain stimulation surgery. The study will use MRI brain scans to understand how the surgery helps improve walking.
Charleston, South CarolinaAges 40 years+ - 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+ - NCT06962930Recruiting
Online coaching to help people with Parkinson's stay active
This study tests whether online coaching sessions can help people with Parkinson's disease in Qatar become more physically active. You'll receive coaching from home, so it's convenient and safe.
DohaAges 18 years+ - NCT06994728Recruiting
How DBS affects vision and freezing of gait in Parkinson's
This trial looks at how deep brain stimulation (DBS) affects the way you see and move, and how that relates to freezing of gait (when your feet suddenly feel stuck). If you have Parkinson's disease, already have a DBS device, and experience freezing, this study may help researchers understand your symptoms better.
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 - NCT06998303Recruiting
Brain imaging study for Parkinson's DBS patients
This study uses MRI scans to look at brain activity in people with Parkinson's disease who have a Medtronic Percept DBS device. The goal is to better understand how deep brain stimulation works.
Minneapolis, MinnesotaAges 21 years+ - NCT07038486Recruiting
Testing a digital tool for Parkinson's symptoms
This study tests a digital tool (NMS Assist) to help people with Parkinson's and their caregivers track and manage non-motor symptoms like mood, sleep, and thinking changes. Participation takes place from home using a smartphone or tablet.
Newcastle upon Tyne, Tyne and WearAges 18 years+ - 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+ - NCT07056348Recruiting
Brain stimulation to improve movement in Parkinson's or tremor
This study tests brain stimulation in a region called VOP/VIM to see if it can improve motor function. It is for people with movement disorders who are already getting deep brain stimulation (DBS) surgery.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 18–80 - NCT07078422Recruiting
Can a wrist device reduce hand tremors at home?
This study tests a wrist-worn device that uses gentle mechanical stimulation to help control hand tremors caused by essential tremor or Parkinson's disease. You use the device at home and report how well it works for you.
Cambridge, MassachusettsAges 18 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.
Hsinchu, Hsinchu CityAges 18–80 - NCT07187843Recruiting
Parkinson's type study: brain-first vs body-first
This study looks at how Parkinson's disease affects thinking, movement, and brain health differently depending on whether it starts in the brain or the body first. Participants will have tests and scans to track these differences over time.
Reggio EmiliaAges 18 years+ - NCT07193355Recruiting
Motor imagery training for Parkinson's disease
This trial tests if thinking about movements (motor imagery) can help improve hand function in people with Parkinson's disease. It may offer a non-drug way to manage symptoms.
Kahramanmaraş, OnikişubatAges 40–75 - NCT07202494Recruiting
Brain aging and resilience MRI study
This study uses powerful MRI scans to understand how the brain ages and why some people stay healthy while others develop neurological diseases like multiple sclerosis or Alzheimer's. It compares healthy volunteers to people with certain conditions, and all participants get a detailed brain MRI.
MarseilleAges 18–90 - NCT07219927Recruiting
Patient experiences with pump-delivered Parkinson's drug
This study looks at real-world experiences of people with Parkinson's who are using ONAPGO, a medication given continuously under the skin through a pump. The goal is to understand how this treatment works in daily life.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for parkinson?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 749 recruiting parkinson 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 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 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.
