Clinical Trial Summary

Idiopathic Parkinson's disease is a common neurodegenerative disease, with a prevalence of around 2% in people over 65 years of age in France. This pathology affects the dopaminergic pathway but also other systems: cholinergic, noradrenergic and serotoninergic. The symptoms of Parkinson's disease are motor but also non-motor with sleep, smell, cognitive, psychiatric, digestive, urinary, dysautonomic, painful disorders. The discomfort can be such that invasive and expensive solutions have been developed. Invasive or expensive techniques (deep brain stimulation, lesional microsurgery by gamma knife or ultrasound, duodopa or apokinon pumps) brought significant benefits to patients. Opportunities for clinical improvement using less expensive and lighter devices should be sought. The Remedee endorphin band device is a device that emits millimeter-band electromagnetic waves on the wrist. The device stimulates subcutaneous nerve endings and activates a physiological response leading to the release of endorphins in the brain. Endorphins are involved in several physiological processes, including pain control. Mu-opioid receptor (MOR) agonists do not only relieve pain, but have effects related to mesolimbic dopaminergic pathways. Indeed, the opioid and dopaminergic systems are closely linked at the cellular level. Endorphins, through inhibition of the release of the neurotransmitter GABA upon binding to the μ receptor, are also linked to an increase in dopamine.

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
