Exercise program to improve sleep in Parkinson’s disease
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This study looks at whether an exercise program can improve sleep problems in people with Parkinson’s disease. It’s mainly for those who already have poor sleep quality while taking stable Parkinson’s medicine.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have Parkinson’s disease (not a different “atypical” kind), and it is mild to moderate
- Your Parkinson’s medicines have been the same for at least the last month
- You have poor sleep (high score on a sleep questionnaire and/or sleep complaints that affect sleep)
- You do not have certain other brain/nerve conditions like dementia, stroke, or atypical Parkinson’s
- You do not have severe untreated sleep apnea, major cognitive problems, or very severe depression
- You are able to exercise safely and are not already very physically active or in another exercise/drug study

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study looks at whether changes in “slow wave sleep” (a deep sleep stage) match improvements in thinking for people with Parkinson’s. It uses an exercise/recovery-focused approach and checks sleep and thinking scores to see if these changes go together.
This trial studies whether doing regular moderate aerobic exercise can help protect the brain in people with Parkinson’s disease. It also includes people without Parkinson’s to compare exercise effects, using fitness and safety screening to keep everyone safe.
This trial tests whether a structured exercise program can help people with Parkinson's disease walk better and feel steadier. If you are in the early-to-moderate stages and have some walking issues, you may be able to join.
This trial tests whether a structured exercise program can change how your brain uses energy in Parkinson’s disease. It may help improve symptoms or brain-related measures, especially in people who currently exercise very little.
This study tests whether a specific amount of exercise can slow the development of Parkinson's disease in people who have a sleep condition called iRBD. If you have iRBD and are not very active, researchers will help you start a personalized exercise program and track your progress with a smartphone app.
This trial studies whether a physical activity program can improve brain health and thinking skills in people with Parkinson's disease who also have mild cognitive impairment. It is designed for those who are not already very active.
