Long-term study of levodopa gel for advanced Parkinson's
This trial tests how well a levodopa-entacapone-carbidopa intestinal gel works over time for people with advanced Parkinson's disease who have severe motor fluctuations and dyskinesia. It's for those who've already used a similar treatment (foslevodopa) for at least a month and whose doctor decided to start this gel.
A Coruña, A CoruñaAges 18 years+ - NCT05901818RecruitingPhase 1
Testing a patient’s own stem-cell treatment for Parkinson’s
This Phase 1 study tests whether an “autologous” (from your own body) iNSC-DAP stem-cell treatment is safe and may help symptoms in Parkinson’s disease. It is designed mainly to check safety, while also watching for signs of improvement.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 30–85 - NCT07378722Recruiting
Personalized music therapy for balance in Parkinson's disease
This study tests whether listening to personalized music can help improve balance and walking in people with Parkinson's. If you have mild balance issues and are between 45 and 55, this trial might be a good fit.
Lahore, Punjab ProvinceAges 45–55 - NCT07397377Recruiting
Brain stimulation for slow movement in Parkinson's
This study tests whether a gentle form of brain stimulation (called prTMS) can help improve slow movement in people with Parkinson's. You would come to the Danish Research Centre for Magnetic Resonance for several sessions. The goal is to see if this non-invasive treatment can make daily tasks a bit easier.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for parkinson’s disease?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 740 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.
