Using a smartphone app to predict Parkinson's medication response
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This study uses a smartphone app to track your symptoms and help predict how your medication affects you over time. It aims to improve treatment for people living with Parkinson's disease.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have been diagnosed with Parkinson's disease for 5 to 10 years.
- You are between 40 and 80 years old.
- You are at stage 2 or 3 on the Hoehn and Yahr scale (during ON time, when medication is working).
- You have a compatible smartphone.
- You are not using a device-aided therapy (like deep brain stimulation or pump).
- You take no more than 4 doses of L-DOPA per day and your total daily dose is 1500 mg or less.

This study tests a smartphone app designed to help people with Parkinson's disease improve their walking pattern. If you can walk without help and are comfortable using a smartphone, this app-based approach might help you retrain your gait and potentially improve your mobility.
This study tests a new way to take your Parkinson's medication using a special device and an app, with the goal of making it easier to manage your symptoms. You'll use the device for 12 weeks and share your experiences through questionnaires.
This study uses a smartphone app and a smartwatch to see if it can help predict the risk of developing Parkinson's disease. It is for people who have certain early signs that might be linked to Parkinson's, but who don't have the disease yet.
This study tests whether using a smartphone and wearable device helps people with Parkinson's disease track their symptoms and improve their quality of life. You will use the device to log your medications and symptoms.
This trial tests whether using wearable sensors can help doctors adjust Parkinson's medications more precisely to reduce motor fluctuations (times when symptoms worsen or improve unpredictably). It might help you have more stable symptom control throughout the day.
This trial tests whether a mobile phone app can help improve walking in people with Parkinson's disease. If you have mild to moderate Parkinson's and can use a smartphone, you may be able to join.
