Exercising to slow Parkinson's in iRBD
Part of Brain & nervous system, Hormones & metabolism, Mental health clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have been diagnosed with a sleep disorder called iRBD (isolated REM sleep behavior disorder).
- You can understand Dutch well enough to follow instructions.
- You can walk around your home on your own without a cane or walker.
- You are not already very physically active (you don't exercise a lot right now).
- You have a compatible smartphone that can run the study apps.

This study tests if increasing physical activity can help slow down cognitive (thinking) decline in people with iRBD, a sleep disorder that often leads to Parkinson's or dementia. You'll use a smartphone and a FitBit to track your activity and receive coaching.
This trial tests whether a motivating phone-based exercise plan can help people with early-stage Parkinson’s move more safely and consistently. You may qualify if you can walk on your own, understand Dutch, and are fairly inactive right now.
This trial tests whether a specific exercise program can slow the early stages of Parkinson's disease in people who have a genetic risk (LRRK2 or GBA variants). You will use a smartphone app to guide your exercise from home.
This study is testing whether a smartphone app can detect early signs of Parkinson's disease by tracking things like sleep and movement. It's for people with a sleep disorder called RBD, people with Parkinson's, and healthy volunteers.
This study uses MRI scans to look at the brain in people with REM sleep behavior disorder (RBD), a condition that can be an early sign of Parkinson's disease. By comparing them with healthy volunteers, researchers hope to find early markers of Parkinson's that could lead to earlier diagnosis and treatment.
This study tests whether playing soft sounds during deep sleep can slow down brain changes in people with REM sleep behavior disorder (a condition linked to Parkinson's disease). It is for people who have this sleep disorder or were recently diagnosed with Parkinson's, and are not yet on Parkinson's medications.
