Clermont-FerrandAges 18 years+ - NCT06582212Recruiting
Managing Hormonal Triggers in Women with Parkinson's
This study helps women with Parkinson's disease who are still having periods learn how hormonal changes may affect their symptoms. You will be guided to identify and manage these triggers better.
Grenoble, GrenobleAges 18–56 - NCT06582355Recruiting
Brain training with MRI for Parkinson's disease
This study tests whether a brain-training technique called neurofeedback can help people with Parkinson's disease. You will learn to control certain brain signals while having an MRI scan, which may improve your symptoms.
CologneAges 18 years+ - NCT06588439Recruiting
Cognitive-motor training for Parkinson's
This study tests a type of training that combines thinking tasks with movement exercises to see if it can improve symptoms in people with Parkinson's disease.
TaipeiAges 40–80 - NCT06588920Recruiting

Tracking markers for neurodegenerative diseases
This study tracks changes in people with Parkinson's disease, other movement disorders, or cognitive decline to find better ways to measure disease progression.
Cassino, FrosinoneAges 10 years+ - NCT06598891Recruiting
Balance training for Parkinson's disease
This study tests a special balance training program for people with Parkinson's disease. It aims to see if it can improve walking and reduce falls.
TaoyuanAges 20 years+ - NCT06598878Recruiting
AR-assisted walking training for Parkinson's
This trial tests walking training with augmented reality (AR) goggles to help with movement in Parkinson's disease. It may help improve your gait and balance.
TaoyuanAges 20 years+ - NCT06087926Recruiting
TMS for apathy in Parkinson's disease

Chapel Hill, North CarolinaAges 55–80 - NCT07213219Recruiting
PET-MRI scan for Parkinson's with sleep behavior disorder
This trial uses a combined PET and MRI scan to study the brain's reward system in people with Parkinson's disease who also have REM sleep behavior disorder (RBD). It aims to understand how the brain changes and may help guide future treatments.

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