Most neurologists and other clinicians treating people with Parkinson's disease (PD) are still unclear about how best to prescribe exercise despite the fact that it is now axiomatic that exercise is therapeutically beneficial for PD. In contrast, drugs for PD are prescribed with care and specificity due to large scientific…
We are looking for participants for a study on the role of immune response in Parkinsons disease (PD) and Alzheimer's disease (AD). We are inviting people WITH PD, WITH AD, WITH amnestic Mild Cognitive Impairment or WITHOUT PD or AD to come and participate. We will be doing several questionnaires, a motor exam, and a short…

FoxBioNet ECV-004 is an observational study sponsored by the Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson's Research. The purpose of this study is to investigate a gene called LRRK2. Mutations in the LRRK2 gene are associated with Parkinson's disease (PD), and mutation carriers have greater LRRK2…
This study is for patients with Parkinson's disease. For most patients with Parkinsons disease, doctors use levodopa as a treatment to manage their symptoms. Levodopa pills have been used for many years to treat the symptoms of Parkinsons disease patients. However,…

The Parkinson's Progression Markers Initiative (PPMI) seeks to uncover insights into Parkinson's disease (PD) onset and progression that could transform how we diagnose, treat, and potentially prevent PD. PPMI has already contributed to a new understanding around disease biology and experience,…
The purpose of this research is to find out whether an investigational drug called CVT-301, is helpful to people with Parkinson's Disease (PD). The treatment involves a new method for taking levodopa (LD) through an inhaler (which is like an asthma inhaler) to provide relief of motor fluctuations (OFF episodes), which are…
The purpose of this study is to test the effectiveness of investigational drug APL-130277 for patients with Parkinson's disease. APL-130277 is an investigational drug, which means that the study drug is currently being tested. It is not approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The active ingredient in APL-…

This study seeks to understand which areas of the brain play a role in cognitive processes such as memory, attention, and motivation. We hope to learn how these processes work together and the extent to which Parkinson's disease and the dopaminergic medications prescribed to treat the disease can affect the interplay between…
You are being asked to participate in this study because you have a condition known as symptomatic neurogenic orthostatic hypotension (NOH) associated with Primary Autonomic Failure Parkinsons Disease (PD), Multiple System Atrophy (MSA) or Pure Autonomic Failure (PAF), or Non-Diabetic Autonomic Neuropathy (NDAN) or Dopamine…
