AI-guided posture training for Parkinson's disease
This trial tests whether a special training program that uses artificial intelligence can help improve posture in people with Parkinson's disease who have a forward bend or lean to one side. If you have Parkinson's and a noticeable postural problem, this might be a way to try a new approach to rehabilitation.
Pavullo nel Frignano, PaviaAges 18 years+ - NCT07010783Recruiting
Breathing exercises for Parkinson's disease
This study looks at how Parkinson's disease affects breathing. It tests exercises that might help people with Parkinson's breathe better and feel healthier.
AnkaraAges 50–80 - NCT07001150RecruitingPhase 2
Silymarin for nerve protection and symptom control in Parkinson's
This trial tests if silymarin, a natural plant extract, can help protect nerves and improve symptoms in people with Parkinson's disease who are already taking dopamine replacement therapy. It aims to see if adding silymarin can provide extra benefits.
Tanta, Tanta, Qism 2Ages 45–65 - NCT06999330Enrolling by invitation
TMS for anxiety in Parkinson's disease
This study tests whether transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS), a non-invasive brain treatment, can help reduce anxiety in people with Parkinson's disease. You may qualify if you have both Parkinson's and significant anxiety symptoms.
Saint Paul, MinnesotaAges 40–90 - NCT06978920RecruitingPhase 1
Stem cell therapy for Parkinson's disease
This early-stage trial tests a new stem cell treatment called NCR201 for people with Parkinson's. It aims to see if the treatment is safe and might help improve symptoms.
Hefei, AnhuiAges 40–75 - NCT06976268RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Testing BHV-8000 for early Parkinson's disease
This study tests a new once-daily pill called BHV-8000 in people who were recently diagnosed with early Parkinson's disease and are not yet on medication. The goal is to see if it can slow the progression of symptoms and improve quality of life.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 40–80 - NCT06957405Recruiting
Mental practice for freezing in Parkinson's disease
This trial tests whether remote mental practice can help reduce freezing of gait in people with Parkinson's disease. If you experience freezing episodes, you may be able to participate from home through video calls.
São Paulo, São PauloAges Any age - NCT06950255Recruiting
Cane training for walking in Parkinson's disease
This study tests whether learning to use a simple cane can improve walking in people with Parkinson's disease. You will be trained to use a cane and then your walking will be measured.
Belo Horizonte, Minas GeraisAges 40 years+ - NCT06944522RecruitingPhase 3
Cell therapy for Parkinson's symptoms
This study tests a new cell therapy called bemdaneprocel to see if it can reduce Parkinson's symptoms and “off” time. The treatment involves transplanting special cells into the brain to help replace lost dopamine-producing cells.
Scottsdale, ArizonaAges 45–75 - NCT06383247Recruiting
Precision TMS for parkinson's motor symptoms
This trial tests a precise form of brain stimulation (called TMS) to see if it can improve movement problems like stiffness, slowness, or tremors in people with Parkinson's disease. Participants must have a stable medication routine and no metal implants or brain surgery history.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for parkinson’s disease?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 723 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.
