Data collection takes place prior to as well as 3, 12 and 60 months after the STN-DBS operation. Participation is proposed to all PD patients that are planned to undergo STN-DBS after careful examination of eligibility for this treatment according to standard operation procedures.

NCT ID: NCT06247423 Recruiting - Nerve Block Clinical Trials

High-frequency Alternating Current Stimulation for Tremor in Parkinson's Disease.

Start date: February 1, 2024
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The goal of this randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, crossover study is to test the effectiveness of 10 kilohertz (kHz) high-frequency transcutaneous stimulation for tremor in people with Parkinson's disease. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Compare the effectiveness between sham stimulation and real stimulation (10kHz) for different types of tremors [rest tremor, postural tremor, kinetic tremor], fine motor skills, and maximal isometric handgrip strength. - Register adverse events, the blinding success of participants and evaluator, and subjective perception of tremor improvement. Participants will perform the following tasks in an "off" state (without levodopa and dopamine agonists medication). All of them were performed on the upper limb with more tremor. - Rest Tremor: Forearm on the armrest, count backward from 100 to 0 as fast as possible for 1 minute and 30 seconds. - Postural Tremor: Extend the arm parallel to the floor (90º shoulder flexion with the forearm extended) for 30 seconds. - Kinetic Tremor: Hold a cup by the handle, raise it close to the mouth for 3 seconds, then return to the initial position. - Fine Motor Skills: Complete the nine-hole peg test, placing pegs into holes as quickly as possible. - Handgrip Strength: Squeeze the device as strongly as possible for 3 seconds, then rest for 15 seconds.

NCT ID: NCT06193278 Recruiting - Clinical trials for Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation

Individual Neuromodulation for PDS

Start date: September 1, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Parkinsonian Syndromes (PDS) with predominant motor dysfunction include progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP), multiple system atrophy (MSA) and corticobasal degeneration (CBD). Current treatment options for PDS are extremely limited due to the less understanding of disease pathophysiology and lack of therapeutic targets. Combining the results of previous studies and our group's previous research, sixty qualified PDS patients would be enrolled to conduct a prospective single-center randomized sham controlled clinical trial to verify the new therapeutic options that can improve symptoms and effectively slow the progression of the disease.

NCT ID: NCT06193252 Recruiting - Parkinson Disease Clinical Trials

Slow-SPEED-NL: Slowing Parkinson's Early Through Exercise Dosage-Netherlands

Slow-SPEED-NL
Start date: January 15, 2024
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The goal of this clinical trial is to investigate the feasibility if a remotely administered smartphone app can increase the volume and intensity of physical activity in daily life in patients with isolated Rapid Eye Movement (REM) sleep behaviour disorder over a long period of time (24 months). Participants will be tasked to achieve an incremental increase of daily steps (volume) and amount of minutes exercised at a certain heart rate (intensity) with respect to their own baseline level. Motivation with regards to physical activity will entirely be communicated through the study specific Slow Speed smartphone app. Primary outcomes will be compliance expressed as longitudinal change in digital measures of physical activity (step count) measured using a Fitbit smartwatch. Exploratory outcomes entail retention rate, completeness of remote digital biomarker assessments, digital prodromal motor and non-motor features of PD, blood biomarkers and brain imaging markers. Using these biomarkers, we aim to develop a composite score (prodromal load score) to estimate the total prodromal load. An international exercise study with fellow researchers in the United States and United Kingdom are currently in preparation (Slow-SPEED). Our intention is to analyse overlapping outcomes combined where possible through a meta-analysis plan, to obtain insight on (determinants of) heterogeneity in compliance and possible efficacy across subgroups

NCT ID: NCT06174948 Not yet recruiting - Clinical trials for Multiple System Atrophy

The Use of the CUE1 in People With Parkinson's Disease and Related Disorders

Start date: March 2024
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

People with Parkinson's disease (PD) commonly experience a range of both motor (e.g., bradykinesia, rigidity, tremor, and postural instability) and non-motor (e.g., fatigue, psychiatric and behavioural disturbances, autonomic dysfunction, cognitive impairment, sleep dysfunction and olfactory loss) features. Currently, it is challenging to alleviate these symptoms with first-line treatment, the medications such as levodopa. The CUE1 is a non-invasive device, which is approved for sale in the UK market as a Class I low risk device. It is worn on the sternum or other part of the body such as the forearm and attaches to the skin via an adhesive patch which has been dermatologically tested and approved. The CUE1 delivers pulsing cueing and vibrotactile stimulation to help improve symptoms in people with PD and it has shown to be effective in doing so in previous small case studies. This 9-week feasibility study aims to investigate the feasibility, safety, tolerability and effect of using the CUE1 as an intervention to improve motor and non-motor symptoms in people with PD and related movement disorders. People with clinical diagnosis of idiopathic PD and related disorders including those with progressive supranuclear palsy, multiple system atrophy, corticobasal degeneration, and vascular Parkinsonism as well as atypical dystonias and tremor disorders aged over 18 years old who have the capacity to provide a written consent form to take part in the study, will receive as intervention to wear the CUE1 device at home, on daily basis while carrying out their activities of daily living. Participants will also have to attend four face-to-face appointments of approximately half a day, at weeks -0, -3, -6 and -9 of the study to discuss how they are getting on with using the CUE1 and complete questionnaires on their symptoms, walking, balance, and movement tests as well as a participant's clinical diary.

NCT ID: NCT06171451 Completed - Parkinson Disease Clinical Trials

Prognostic Values of PET Examination With 11 C-Fe_CIT With Voxel-based Analysis Method in Patients With Sporadic Parkonson's Disease and Parkinsonisms (Prot.PD-diagn).

Start date: October 12, 2008
Phase:
Study type: Observational

The role of PET for the in vivo study of the presynaptic dopaminergic system with 11C-Fe-CIT is universally recognized, and its use has also become routine in numerous nuclear medicine centers in Europe. The indication for the examination is provided exclusively by the clinic in the presence of extrapyramidal signs in the suspicion of Parkinson's disease (PD) or for the differential diagnosis of parkinsonisms. The existence of factors that influence the prognosis of patients with PD or parkinsonism associated with other degenerative diseases is known. Given these premises, the possibility of identifying the disease in the early stages appears fundamental. For this purpose the following should be considered: 1. an automatic analysis method based on the measurement of radiotracer uptake at the level of individual voxels, following Statistical Parametric Mapping procedures. 2. the analysis based on regions of interest (ROIs) positioned ad hoc by the operator which will give the value of the ROI to reference region ratio. In particular, ROIs on the basal ganglia (caudate, putamen) towards cerebellum. Both of these methods offer a quantitative measurement of the damage at the level of the structures involved that is absolutely better than the visual investigation of the distribution of radioactivity in the central nervous system. In this study the investigators want to compare results provided by methods 1 and 2 in the populations under examination to evaluate the data relating to the specificity and sensitivity of the test.
