Recruiting studies
- NCT07625540Recruiting
Targeted Brain Stimulation for Parkinson's Motor and Non-Motor Symptoms
This trial tests a non-invasive brain stimulation technique (using electrical currents applied through the scalp) aimed at the subthalamic nucleus—a brain region involved in movement control—to help reduce both movement-related symptoms (like tremor and stiffness) and non-movement symptoms (like mood and sleep problems) in people with Parkinson's disease.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 50–85 - NCT07619560Recruiting
Probiotic Cocktail to Slow Early Parkinson's Disease
This study tests whether a special blend of probiotics (good bacteria), an amino acid called tryptophan, and branched-chain amino acids can help slow the progression of early-stage Parkinson's disease. The idea is that these supplements may work through your gut bacteria to help protect your brain.
TaipeiAges 30–85 - NCT07618728Recruiting
Community Exercise Program for Parkinson's Disease
This study tests whether a group exercise program designed for Parkinson's disease patients can be safely and practically run in a community setting. The program combines different types of movement and exercise to help improve function and quality of life.
Alcorcón, MadridAges 18 years+ - NCT07606547Recruiting
Swallowing Strength Training for Parkinson's Disease
This study tests whether a mouth and throat muscle-strengthening device called EMST helps people with Parkinson's disease who have difficulty swallowing. Stronger throat muscles may make swallowing safer and easier.
MünsterAges 18 years+ - NCT07610369RecruitingPhase 2
Psilocybin therapy for depression in Parkinson's disease
This study tests whether psilocybin (a psychedelic compound) combined with therapy can reduce depression in people with Parkinson's disease. If you have moderate-to-severe depression and Parkinson's, this trial may offer a new treatment option.
New Haven, ConnecticutAges 40–80 - NCT07610031Recruiting
Trunk Exercises and Mirror Therapy for Balance in Parkinson's
This study tests whether specific exercises for your trunk (torso) combined with mirror therapy can help improve balance and posture in people with Parkinson's disease. These techniques may help you move more safely and reduce fall risk.
Lahore, Punjab ProvinceAges 50–70 - NCT06710574RecruitingPhase 4
Probiotics for sleep problems in Parkinson's disease
This study tests whether taking probiotics can improve REM sleep behavior disorder (RBD) in people with Parkinson's disease. You will receive either a probiotic supplement or a placebo, and researchers will use brain scans to see how it affects your symptoms.
BeijingAges 40–85 - NCT05820074Recruiting
Neural signals and walking changes in Parkinson’s patients
This study measures brain and nerve “biomarkers” to understand how Parkinson’s affects walking and balance. It may help researchers identify signs that relate to gait problems, and participants with a specific implanted stimulator may be able to take part in testing with stimulation turned off.
Vitznau, Canton of LucerneAges 18 years+ - NCT06629389RecruitingPhase 2
Cannabidiol (Kanbis) for Parkinson's symptoms
This trial tests whether cannabidiol (CBD) can help with Parkinson's disease symptoms. Researchers want to see if it's safe and effective for people with mild to moderate Parkinson's who are already on stable medications.
Mendoza, Mendoza ProvinceAges 40–80 - NCT07592767RecruitingPhase 2
Resveratrol supplement for Parkinson's disease
This study tests whether a supplement called resveratrol (found naturally in grapes and berries) can help slow or improve Parkinson's disease symptoms. You'll take resveratrol pills or a placebo while researchers monitor your memory, movement, and overall health.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 55–85 - NCT07589296Recruiting
Robot-Assisted Walking vs. Electrical Stimulation for Parkinson's
This study compares two ways to help people with Parkinson's disease improve their walking: using a robotic device to guide your legs, or electrical stimulation (mild electrical pulses to leg muscles). The goal is to see which approach helps you walk better and more confidently.
Küçükçekmece, IstanbulAges 40–80 - NCT07585409Recruiting
Physical Activity for Parkinson's Disease Patients
This study tests whether physical activity (like exercise or movement) can help people with Parkinson's disease feel better and move more easily. Researchers want to understand how activity affects Parkinson's symptoms and quality of life.
StockholmAges 18 years+ - NCT07572071RecruitingPhase 1
Cell transplant study for moderate Parkinson's disease
This trial tests whether transplanting specially grown cells (DopaCell) into the brain can safely help people with moderate Parkinson's disease whose symptoms aren't well controlled by medication. The cells are intended to produce dopamine, the chemical that Parkinson's affects.
ShirazAges 30–70 - NCT05385315Recruiting
Blood test study to help detect Parkinson’s disease early
This study looks for a new blood marker that could help doctors detect Parkinson’s disease earlier. Depending on your diagnosis and treatment status, your blood may be compared with other people’s to see how well the test works.
GrenobleAges 18 years+ - NCT07569133Enrolling by invitation
Brain stimulation for depression in Parkinson's disease
This study tests whether a non-invasive brain stimulation treatment called repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) can help improve depressive symptoms in people with Parkinson's disease. If you have Parkinson's and feel depressed, this treatment might be a new option for you.
Daegu, Buk-guAges 40–90 - NCT07567482Recruiting
Exoskeleton-Assisted Walking for Parkinson's and Aging
This study tests whether a wearable robotic exoskeleton (a powered leg device) can help people with Parkinson's disease and older adults walk better and stay active. Researchers want to see if this technology improves mobility and reduces fall risk.
Gatineau, QuebecAges 50 years+ - NCT07567599Enrolling by invitation
Deep Brain Stimulation Surgery for Parkinson's Disease
This study follows people with Parkinson's disease who are having a surgical procedure called deep brain stimulation (DBS), where thin electrodes are placed in the brain to help control movement symptoms. Researchers will track how well the surgery works and how it affects daily activities.
Belo Horizonte, Minas GeraisAges Any age - NCT06528964Recruiting
Skin protein study for Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and related disorders
This study looks at the skin of people with memory or movement disorders (like Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, ALS) to find proteins that may help diagnose these conditions. If you have one of these diseases or are a healthy older adult, you may be able to join by giving a small skin sample.
San Luis Potosí CityAges 45 years+ - NCT07551661Recruiting
Walking With Poles for Parkinson Disease
This study tests whether using walking poles during regular walks helps people with Parkinson disease improve their movement and balance. You'll walk independently on your own schedule while using special poles designed to support your gait.
Johnson City, TennesseeAges Any age - NCT07553845Recruiting
Sleep, Movement, and Brain Health Study in China
This study follows people with sleep behavior problems, movement disorders like Parkinson's, and healthy volunteers to understand how these conditions develop and relate to each other. Researchers will use brain imaging and other tests to learn more about these diseases.
ShanghaiAges 31–79 - 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.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for parkinsonism?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 735 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.
