Filter by:To establish the efficacy of 10, 20 and 40 mg/d dose of istradefylline for reducing the percentage of OFF time in patients with advanced Parkinson's disease (PD) treated with levodopa.
To establish the efficacy of a 20 mg/day dose of istradefylline for reducing the percentage of OFF time in patients with advanced Parkinson's disease (PD) treated with levodopa.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of 40 mg a day of istradefylline (KW-6002) for reducing the percentage of awake time spent in the OFF state in patients with advanced Parkinson's disease treated with levodopa.
This is a 1-year, open-label, long-term safety extension for patients who have completed prior istradefylline studies 6002-EU-007, 6002-US-013 or 6002-US-018.
To establish the efficacy of 20 mg/day and 40 mg/day doses of istradefylline for reducing the percentage of OFF time in patients with advanced Parkinson's disease (PD) treated with levodopa.
Assessment of the therapeutic effect of deep brain stimulation of the subthalamic nucleus compared with drug treatment alone in patients with advanced Parkinson's disease.
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety of using a modified virus to transfer a gene called GAD into a region of the brain called the subthalamic nucleus in patients with advanced Parkinson's disease. The overall goal of this approach is to ultimately normalize the flow of information in several brain regions responsible for movement, to ultimately improve function in patients with this disorder. The current study is primarily designed to evaluate the safety of this approach, but patients are also being monitored for possible signs of effectiveness as well.
This study was designed to evaluate the symptomatic effects of Coenzyme Q10 nanodispersed solution in middle-stage Parkinson's disease (PD) patients (Hoehn&Yahr II to III). The treatment phase includes three months period of 300 mg Coenzyme Q10 per day or placebo. The primary outcome measure was the combined Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS) Part II and III. The hypothesis of this study was that Coenzyme Q10 improves the energy status of the diseased dopaminergic neuronal cell type and thus producing more dopamine leading to an improvement of parkinsonian symptoms in PD patients.
We will evaluate the effect of deep brain stimulation on the depression and quality of life in Parkinson’s disease. We aim to compare depression pre-operatively and post-operatively in Parkinson’s patients with deep brain stimulation to Parkinson’s patients evaluated and approved for deep brain stimulation but who did not complete surgery. We will also compare quality of life measures between patients with and without deep brain stimulation.
This is a randomized, double-blind, two treatment, two group, parallel group study. Subjects will be randomized to one of two treatment groups (E2007 or Placebo) in a 3 to 1 ratio and receive treatment for a total of ten weeks (Days 1 to 70).
