Huntington's disease and pain study
Part of Brain & nervous system, Genetic & congenital, Mental health, Pain clinical trials.
This study looks at how common pain is in people with Huntington's disease and how it affects daily life. By joining, you will help researchers understand pain in HD better, which could lead to better treatments.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 21 years old or older.
- You have Huntington's disease confirmed by genetic testing, and a doctor says you are in the early or middle stage of the disease.
- You are otherwise in good health, meaning any other health problems (like high blood pressure) are stable and well controlled.
- You are able to understand the study information and give your consent.
- You are not pregnant or breastfeeding.
- You do not have a history of drug or alcohol abuse in the past year that would interfere with the study.

This study tests new ways to measure thinking and memory skills in people with Huntington's disease. It aims to find better tools for tracking the disease and could help you understand your cognitive changes.
This study looks at how people with Parkinson’s, treated either with levodopa or deep brain stimulation (DBS), and healthy volunteers experience pain. The goal is to understand how Parkinson’s treatments affect pain perception.
This study looks at how accurately people can describe their pain and related symptoms. It may help researchers improve how pain is measured in future studies.
This study is collecting tiny particles called extracellular vesicles from blood and spinal fluid to learn more about Huntington's disease. It aims to find better ways to measure the disease in people who have HD and in those who do not.
This study tests whether a gentle brain stimulation device (tDCS) used at home can help improve thinking and behavior in people with Huntington's disease. A caregiver is needed to be present during treatment and help with questionnaires.
This study tests whether a medication called pridopidine can help slow the progression of Huntington's disease symptoms in adults. Huntington's is a genetic disorder affecting movement, mood, and thinking, and this trial aims to see if pridopidine improves daily functioning and quality of life.
