Vitamin D3 and brain waves in Parkinson's study
Treatments studied
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This study tests whether taking vitamin D3 can improve brain wave patterns in men with Parkinson's disease who have low vitamin D levels. It may help understand if vitamin D supports brain health.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are a man between 51 and 70 years old.
- You have been diagnosed with Parkinson's disease and are at an early to moderate stage (up to stage 3).
- You are currently taking levodopa for your Parkinson's.
- You have low vitamin D levels (blood test result below 30 ng/mL).
- You are not already taking vitamin D supplements.
- You do not have certain other health problems like heart disease, lung disease, seizures, or severe depression, and you are not a smoker.

This study uses digital tools and brain markers to detect Parkinson's disease early. It includes healthy people, those with early Parkinson's, and those with REM sleep behavior disorder (a possible early sign).
This study tests whether taking vitamin D3 supplements can improve the nerve function that controls your heartbeat in men with Parkinson's disease who have low vitamin D levels. If you have mild to moderate Parkinson's and are on levodopa, this trial may help understand if vitamin D can support your heart health.
This trial tests whether taking vitamin D3 supplements changes brain wave activity in men with epilepsy who also have low vitamin D levels. It aims to see if vitamin D could help improve brain function.
This study tests whether vitamin D supplements can improve brain wave patterns in women diagnosed with depression who have low vitamin D levels. Researchers will measure brain activity using EEG (a non-invasive test that records electrical signals from the brain) before and after vitamin D treatment.
This study tests whether taking vitamin D3 supplements can improve how well the nerves controlling your heart work in men with epilepsy who have low vitamin D levels. If you have low vitamin D from taking certain epilepsy medicines, this trial may help understand if vitamin D can support your heart health.
This study looks at brain features linked to dementia in people who have Parkinson disease. It may help researchers understand why dementia happens in Parkinson and how it could be detected or treated in the future.
