This study tests if ketamine can help treat depression in veterans with Parkinson's disease. It involves several in-person and remote visits, and you will need to avoid certain medications and cannabis for a short time before and during some visits.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 40–80 - NCT06232772Recruiting
Biomarkers for early Parkinson's diagnosis
This study looks for new markers in the blood or other samples to help diagnose Parkinson's disease earlier. It compares people with Parkinson's, related conditions (like multiple system atrophy or progressive supranuclear palsy), and healthy volunteers to find differences.
Nanning, GuangxiAges 18–80 - NCT06234995RecruitingPhase 4
Brain activity and movement control in Parkinson's
This study looks at how the brain controls movement in people with Parkinson's disease, including those who have had deep brain stimulation (DBS) surgery. It involves recording brain activity and may help doctors understand how to improve treatment.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 45–75 - NCT06237868Recruiting
TMS for Impulse Control in Parkinson's Disease
This trial tests whether a type of non-invasive brain stimulation called TMS can help reduce impulse control problems (like gambling or compulsive eating) that are caused by Parkinson's medications. It's for people with Parkinson's who are living with these side effects.
Morgantown, West VirginiaAges 18 years+ - NCT06248073Recruiting
Online program and task training for Parkinson's disease
This study tests an online program and task-based training to help people with mild Parkinson's disease improve their movement and reaching ability. It is designed for people who can still sit and reach for objects without major tremors or other health problems.
Linkou DistrictAges 45–70 - NCT06291051Recruiting
Spinal cord stimulation for Parkinson's with painful bent spine
This study tests whether a spinal cord stimulator (a device that sends mild electrical pulses to the back) is safe and can reduce pain and improve the forward-bent posture in people with Parkinson's disease. It is for those whose bent posture has not improved with standard medication and is causing significant pain.
AmiensAges 18 years+ - NCT06295614Recruiting
ARC-IM therapy for walking problems in Parkinson's
This study tests a new therapy called ARC-IM to help with walking issues like freezing or balance problems in people with Parkinson's. It aims to see if the therapy is safe and can improve movement.
Lausanne, Canton of VaudAges 18 years+ - NCT06304285Recruiting
Acupuncture for Parkinson's with chronic appendicitis

Hefei, AnhuiAges 40–70 - NCT06316232RecruitingPhase 4
DBS and Levodopa for Freezing of Gait in Parkinson's
This trial tests whether increasing the dose of levodopa or adjusting deep brain stimulation (DBS) can help reduce freezing of gait in people with Parkinson's who already have good control of other symptoms. It aims to find the best way to manage this common and frustrating problem.
BolognaAges 18–80 - NCT06323278Recruiting
Thinking and memory training for Parkinson's disease
This study tests whether a thinking-and-memory training program (cognitive stimulation) can help people with Parkinson's who have mild memory or thinking problems, but not dementia. You must not have had deep brain stimulation surgery.
