ABBV-951 Infusion for Parkinson's Disease

Mobile, Alabama
Parkinson's disease (PD) is a neurological condition, which affects the brain. PD gets worse over time, but how quickly it progresses varies a lot from person to person. Some symptoms of PD are tremors, stiffness, and slowness of movement. This study will assess how safe and effective ABBV-951 is in adult participants with PD. Adverse events and change in disease activity is evaluated. ABBV-951 is an investigational (unapproved) drug containing Levodopa Phosphate/Carbidopa Phosphate (LDP/CDP) given as an infusion under the skin for the treatment of Parkinson's Disease. Adult participants with advanced PD and who have completed M15-736 or M20-339 study will be enrolled. Approximately 130 participants will be enrolled in the study in approximately 60 sites in the United States and Australia. Participants will receive continuous subcutaneous infusion (CSCI) (under the skin) of ABBV-951 for 96 weeks during the Primary Treatment Period and during the optional Extended Treatment Period. There may be higher treatment burden for participants in this trial compared to their standard of care. Participants will attend regular visits during the course of the study at a hospital or clinic. The effect of the treatment will be checked by medical and remote telephone assessments, blood tests, checking for side effects, and completing questionnaires.

PET Scan with DPA-714 for Parkinson's Disease

Birmingham, Alabama
The primary objective of this substudy is to measure the concentration and the regional brain distribution of activated brain microglia/macrophages using the PET ligand \[18F\]DPA-714 in participants enrolled in the UAB Innate and Adaptive Immunity in Parkinson's Disease (Clinical Research Core) and Longitudinal \[18F\]DPA-714 Imaging in a Parkinson Disease Cohort studies. The PET tracer \[18F\]DPA-714 binds to the 18 kDa translocator protein (TSPO, also known as the peripheral benzodiazepine receptor) in the mitochondria of activated microglia/macrophages and provides a non-invasive measure of neuroinflammation. The amount and distribution of \[18F\]DPA-714 in the brain will be correlated to clinical data acquired through the separate ongoing UAB Innate and Adaptive Immunity in Parkinson Disease (Clinical Research Core) and Longitudinal \[18F\]DPA-714 Imaging in a Parkinson Disease Cohort studies. The primary objective of this study is to determine if patients with PD have higher levels of neuroinflammation than healthy controls as measured with \[18F\]DPA-714-PET/MRI.

NE3107 for Parkinson's Disease

Pensacola, Florida
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if bezisterim can treat movement symptoms of Parkinson's disease in patients that are 45 to 80 years old, in generally good physical and mental health, and are nearing the need for treatment to relieve their symptoms but have not yet been prescribed any form of levodopa or drug with similar activity. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Will bezisterim decrease movement symptoms of Parkinson's disease? * What medical problems do participants have when taking bezisterim? Researchers will compare the effects of bezisterim treatment to placebo (a look-alike substance that contains no drug) to see if bezisterim works to treat movement symptoms of Parkinson's disease. Participants will * have a physical examination that includes an electrocardiogram * take drug or placebo twice daily for four months * visit a clinical site or receive an at home visit seven times over the course of five months

Movement-2-Music Exercise Program for Mobility Disabilities

Birmingham, Alabama
The purpose of this study is to test the effects of an innovative exercise program referred to as movement-2-music (M2M) on health and fitness outcomes in adults with physical/mobility disabilities. One hundred and eight participants with physical/mobility disabilities will be recruited and randomly enrolled into one of two groups: a) M2M or b) waitlist control. The primary aim of this study is to determine the effects of a 12-week M2M program on health and fitness in participants with physical/mobility disabilities who are in one of three functional mobility groups: 1) Group I - only able to exercise while sitting, 2) Group II - able to exercise sitting and standing with/without support, and 3) Group III - able to exercise one side of the body more than the other side. The second aim is to compare the observed effects of the program in this study to a previous M2M study that groups participants based on disability type. The third aim of this study is to test whether adherence (defined as attendance to the 12-week program) affects the effects of M2M in participants with physical/mobility disabilities. The potential influences of different functional mobility and disabilities of participants on how the program affects participants' health and fitness outcomes will also be tested. \*\*In response to COVID-19, the 12-week M2M intervention and all assessments have been modified from being delivered in-person at Lakeshore Foundation to being delivered remotely in real-time through videoconferencing technology.\*\*

Brain Stimulation for Parkinson's Disease

Birmingham, Alabama
Our goal is to better understand how DBS modifies local neuronal activity and to pioneer device technologies that can record local DBS-evoked potentials (DLEPs) to guide therapy. Our vision is for a patient's unique electrophysiology to guide both electrode targeting during surgery and programming in clinic, eventually as an integrated component of the implanted pulse generator. Our results will inform directional DBS for PD and serve as a model for translation to other diseases where knowledge on DBS circuit interactions is at an even earlier stage.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much do Parkinson's Disease clinical trials in Alabama pay?

Each trial will compensate patients a different amount, but $50-100 for each visit is a fairly common range for Phase 2–4 trials (Phase 1 trials often pay substantially more). Further, most trials will cover the costs of a travel to-and-from the clinic.

How do Parkinson's Disease clinical trials in Alabama work?

After a researcher reviews your profile, they may choose to invite you in to a screening appointment, where they'll determine if you meet 100% of the eligibility requirements. If you do, you'll be sorted into one of the treatment groups, and receive your study drug. For some trials, there is a chance you'll receive a placebo. Across Parkinson's Disease trials in Alabama 30% of clinical trials have a placebo. Typically, you'll be required to check-in with the clinic every month or so. The average trial length in Alabama for Parkinson's Disease is 12 months.

How do I participate in a study as a "healthy volunteer"?

Not all studies recruit healthy volunteers: usually, Phase 1 studies do. Participating as a healthy volunteer means you will go to a research facility in Alabama several times over a few days or weeks to receive a dose of either the test treatment or a "placebo," which is a harmless substance that helps researchers compare results. You will have routine tests during these visits, and you'll be compensated for your time and travel, with the number of appointments and details varying by study.

What does the "phase" of a clinical trial mean?

The phase of a trial reveals what stage the drug is in to get approval for a specific condition. Phase 1 trials are the trials to collect safety data in humans. Phase 2 trials are those where the drug has some data showing safety in humans, but where further human data is needed on drug effectiveness. Phase 3 trials are in the final step before approval. The drug already has data showing both safety and effectiveness. As a general rule, Phase 3 trials are more promising than Phase 2, and Phase 2 trials are more promising than phase 1.

Do I need to be insured to participate in a Parkinson's Disease medical study in Alabama?

Clinical trials are almost always free to participants, and so do not require insurance. The only exception here are trials focused on cancer, because only a small part of the typical treatment plan is actually experimental. For these cancer trials, participants typically need insurance to cover all the non-experimental components.

What are the newest Parkinson's Disease clinical trials in Alabama?

Most recently, we added NE3107 for Parkinson's Disease, CVN424 for Parkinson's Disease and PET Imaging for Parkinson's Disease to the Power online platform.
