Parkinson's disease (PD) is a chronic neurodegenerative disease clinically characterized by bradykinesia, hypokinesia, rigidity, resting tremor, and postural instability. These motor manifestations are attributed to the degeneration and selective loss of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra pars compacta (SNpc), leading to a dopamine (DA) deficiency in the striatum. Neuroinflammation …
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn to what extent daily stimulation of the brain with transcranial pulsed electromagnetic fields (T-PEMF) works to treat persons with Parkinson's Disease. The main questions it aims to answer are: How does 6 months of daily treatment (30 minutes/day) with T-PEMF affects …
This is a prospective, multicenter, randomized, two-period study designed to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the EarStim System for intermittent relief of motor symptoms in patients with Parkinson's disease experiencing wearing-off phenomena. Adult patients with moderate to severe Parkinson's disease (MDS-UPDRS Part III score ≥33) receiving oral dopaminergic therapy …
In Parkinson's disease (PD), there is inflammation in the brain, the gut and the blood, which is thought to contribute to the development and progression of the disease. The Nod-like receptor (NLR) family pyrin domain containing 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome is a complex of proteins which plays a critical role in …
The study tests whether a smart shoe (NUSHU) that provides vibrotactile stimulation can improve walking speed in people with Parkinson's disease. Sixteen participants complete two short walking tests-with and without vibration-to compare gait speed, cadence, stride length, usability, and safety. It is a low-risk pilot study meant to generate first …
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the dose-related safety and tolerability of IPS101A, an adeno-associated virus (AAV) gene therapy, in patients with Parkinson's disease who exhibit severe functional impairment corresponding to Hoehn \& Yahr stages 4-5 and whose symptoms are not adequately controlled despite all available monotherapy and …
The main goal of the study is to investigate how well the new drug SUL-238 works in Parkinson's Disease (PD). This is done by means of an MRS scan. An MRS scan is similar to a regular MRI scan. It will also learn about the safety of new drug SUL-238. …
Care for Parkinson's patients at the end of life is far from optimal, particularly due to specificities linked to the disease itself, often unknown to non-specialists. A study carried out at the CHU Rennes on data covering the period 2006-2018 showed that only 132 patients died in this hospital, two-thirds …
This study aimed to observe the clinical efficacy and safety of single-target transcranial temporal stimulation (tTIS) intervention in Parkinson's disease (PD) patients and explore the neurophysiological mechanism of TIS intervention. The study was designed as a three-arm (A: GPi group, B: STN group, C: Sham group), randomized, double-blind, parallel-controlled trial. …
The clinical manifestations of Parkinson's disease (PD), a chronic neurodegenerative condition, include resting tremor, hypokinesia, bradykinesia, stiffness and postural instability. These motor symptoms are caused by a selective loss and degeneration of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra pars compacta (SNpc) region, which leads to a dopamine (DA) insufficiency in …
