Tributyrin for Parkinson's with memory problems
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This trial tests a supplement called tributyrin to see if it can help with thinking and memory problems in people with Parkinson's disease. You may be able to join if you have both Parkinson's and mild cognitive impairment or dementia.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 45 years old or older.
- You have Parkinson's disease and also have some memory or thinking problems (mild cognitive impairment or Parkinson's disease dementia).
- If you take certain medications for memory or mood, you have been on a steady dose for at least 4 weeks.

This trial tests a supplement called tributyrin to see if it can help people with progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP), a condition that affects movement and balance. The study is done virtually, so you can participate from home with a caregiver's help.
This trial tests a type of brain stimulation called iTBS on an area of the brain that may help with thinking and memory problems in people with Parkinson's disease and mild cognitive impairment. If you qualify, you and your caregiver would take part in sessions and answer questions about your daily life.
This trial tests whether a type of noninvasive brain stimulation (tDCS) can improve thinking and memory in people with mild cognitive impairment in Parkinson’s disease. You may be eligible if you have these diagnoses, are on stable medications, and can safely complete brain scan/testing.
This study tests whether a thinking-and-memory training program (cognitive stimulation) can help people with Parkinson's who have mild memory or thinking problems, but not dementia. You must not have had deep brain stimulation surgery.
This trial tests whether a supplement called tributyrin, which may help the gut and brain, can improve symptoms in people with mild Alzheimer's disease. It aims to see if boosting certain gut chemicals can slow the disease's progress.
This study tests whether a supplement called resveratrol (found naturally in grapes and berries) can help slow or improve Parkinson's disease symptoms. You'll take resveratrol pills or a placebo while researchers monitor your memory, movement, and overall health.
