24-hour adaptive deep brain stimulation for Parkinson's
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This trial tests a new deep brain stimulation system that adapts in real time to improve symptom control over 24 hours, especially for people with daytime fluctuations or sleep problems despite standard DBS.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 25 and 75 years old.
- You have been diagnosed with Parkinson's disease.
- Your symptoms are not well controlled with oral medications.
- You are considering or already have a deep brain stimulation system that can be upgraded.
- You have at least 2 hours per day of 'off' time or uncontrolled movements (dyskinesias) despite medication.
- You do not have significant memory or thinking problems, untreated depression, or other serious medical conditions.

This study tests a new way to adjust deep brain stimulation (DBS) automatically during the day to better control Parkinson's symptoms. It is for people who already have a Percept DBS device but still have motor fluctuations.
This trial compares two brain targets for deep brain stimulation (DBS), a surgery that uses implanted electrodes to help control Parkinson's symptoms. It aims to see which target works better for people whose symptoms are not well controlled by medication.
This study is for people with Parkinson's disease who already have a deep brain stimulator (a device that sends electrical pulses to the brain) and still have motor fluctuations (times when symptoms come and go). The researchers want to see if adapting the device's settings can better control symptoms than the current standard settings.
This trial tests an adaptive deep brain stimulation (DBS) system designed to improve freezing of gait in Parkinson’s disease. It is for people who still have trouble walking despite medications and are already planning to have DBS surgery.
This study tests a new type of deep brain stimulation (DBS) that adapts to your brain activity in real time. It is for people with Parkinson's disease whose symptoms are not well managed by medication and who are already candidates for DBS surgery.
This study looks at brain activity during sleep in people with Parkinson's who have a deep brain stimulation (DBS) device. It aims to understand how different DBS settings affect sleep, which may help improve treatment.
