Minneapolis, Minnesota
Patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) sometimes experience symptoms affecting their movement, such as slowness, tremor, stiffness, and balance or walking problems. Many patients also have other symptoms not related to movement, called non-motor symptoms, which may affect one's mood or emotions, memory or thinking, or cause one to see or hear things that aren't real (hallucinations) or believe things that aren't true (delusions). Hallucinations or delusions, together called psychosis, occur in up to 60% of PD patients at some point in time. Parkinson's disease psychosis can sometimes be associated with decreased quality of life, increased nursing home placement, increased rate of death, and greater caregiver burden. There are approximately 50,000 Veterans with Parkinson's disease receiving care in the VA, and up to 30,000 (60%) of them will experience psychosis at some point in time.
Quetiapine is an antipsychotic drug approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) that is the most commonly used medication to treat PD psychosis, but more studies are needed to determine if it works for this condition and is also well tolerated and safe. Pimavanserin is a newer antipsychotic drug approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) specifically to treat PD psychosis, but more studies are needed to determine if it works and its safety.
The purpose of this research is to gather additional information on the safety and effectiveness of both Quetiapine and Pimavanserin. By doing this study, the investigators hope to learn which of these medications is the most effective course of treatment for people with PD psychosis.

Deep Brain Stimulation for Parkinson's Disease
Minneapolis, Minnesota
Sixty patients will be enrolled in this study who are treated for Parkinson's disease (PD) with bilateral deep brain stimulation of subthalamic nucleus (STN) or globus pallidus (GP), who have a pre- operative 7 Tesla MRI including diffusion tensor imaging for tractography and a postoperative head CT for electrode localization, and in whom at least 3 months have passed since activation of their neurostimulators, for stabilization of clinical stimulator settings. Using their MRI and CT, the investigators will construct patient-specific models of electrical current spread to neuroanatomical tar- gets surrounding the electrode. Then applying nonlinear (particle swarm) optimization, patient- specific stimulator settings will be designed to maximally or minimally activate specific path- ways. In STN DBS: pedunculopallidal vs. pallidopeduncular pathways. In GP DBS: pallidopeduncular pathways at its origin in GP pars interna (GPi) vs. inhibitory afferents to GPi (from GP pars externa GPe). All stimulation falls within the the FDA-approved range for DBS for PD.

Deep Brain Stimulation for Parkinson's Disease
Minneapolis, Minnesota
More than one million people in the United States have Parkinson's disease (PD) and the prevalence is expected to double by 2040. Over 60% of these individuals will develop debilitating postural instability and gait disturbances (PIGD), including freezing of gait (FOG). With disease progression, axial motor symptoms typically become resistant to dopamine replacement therapies (e.g. levodopa) and a primary source of disability and morbidity. While subthalamic (STN) and globus pallidus internus (GPi) deep brain stimulation (DBS) using standard locations and stimulation parameters can be highly effective for the treatment of the cardinalmotorsymptomsof PD, both treatments often fail to control levodopa-resistant motor features of PD such as PIGD. DBS can also impair cognitive function which further exacerbates PIGD, particularly when the task requires attentional resources. Thus, despite considerable improvements in appendicular bradykinesia, rigidity and tremor with conventional DBS, the disease can continue to be dominated by PIGD, leading to increased falls, decreased mobility, and increased rate of hospitalization and morbidity. This is why one of the top NINDS priorities for clinical research in PD is the development of novel therapeutic approaches, such as DBS targeting, to treat levodopa-resistant motor symptoms.
This study will provide crucial information to elucidate the functional properties of the networks involved in Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) treatment. By refining our understanding of the neural networks involved in stimulation of DBS targets, we will improve our ability to program patients to enhance their clinical outcomes and minimize side effects.

Freezing of Gait for Parkinson's Disease
Minneapolis, Minnesota
The purpose of this research is to examine the possible causes and signs of freezing of gait (FOG) secondary to Parkinson's disease (PD). To achieve this, the study will use the novel (on-label and FDA-approved) local field potential (LFP) measuring capability of the Medtronic Percept™ deep brain stimulation (DBS) system to compare oscillatory activity in people who have Parkinson's disease, with and without freezing of gait (FOG). This will be conducted as three separate experiments, participants may volunteer for one or more experiments:
Experiment 1: The first experiment will compare LFPs during gait initiation with and without a cue, in people with (PD+FOG) and without FOG (PD-FOG).
Experiment 2: The second experiment will compare LFPs during the successful movement transitions vs. freezing-events during a FOG provocation course in people with FOG.
Experiment 3: The third experiment will compare LFPs during rapid alternating movements of the wrist and/or foot, in people with and without FOG

Deep Brain Stimulation for Parkinson's Disease
Minneapolis, Minnesota
When a patient gets DBS surgery, the neurosurgeon makes a hole in the skull through which they can put the DBS lead down in deep parts of the brain that help control movement. For this study, research participants will also have an ECoG strip put through the same hole (no extra holes are being made for research purposes). The ECoG strip is a little less than half an inch wide, and a little more than 2.5 inches long. It is very, very thin; it is a thin plastic film with flat metal sensors that can record the electrical activity in the brain. The ECoG strips are FDA approved. The neurosurgeon will slide the ECoG strip under the skull but on top of the brain, over another area of the brain that helps control hand/arm movement (motor cortex), so that the study team can record the activity there. The study team will record brain activity from the DBS lead and the ECoG strip simultaneously to try to understand how the brain communicates and sends information. The study team will check that the ECoG strip is in the right place by delivering a very small electrical pulse to the wrist. If the ECoG strip is in the correct location, this electrical pulse will show up on the brain activity being recorded by the sensors in the ECoG strip. Fluoroscopy (i.e. X-ray images that can be taken quickly) will also be done at the end of the surgery to help confirm the location of the ECoG strip. During fluoroscopy, an X-ray beam is used to track a contrast agent ("X-ray dye") through the body, so that the body can be seen in detail. This involves some radiation exposure for the participant, so this is described in the consent form. Patients who want to sign up for the study will not be allowed to do so if they have had other radiation exposures within the past year that would go over a safe limit when added to the amount of radiation expected from the fluoroscopy for this study.

Electrical Vestibular Stimulation for Parkinson's Disease
Minneapolis, Minnesota
Currently, there is a lack of comprehensive knowledge about the role of vestibulospinal drive and cortical activity during self-initiated movement transitions in older adults and people with PD (both with and without FOG). This set of experiments has two primary purposes: to (1) understand the pathological neurophysiology underlying freezing of gait (FOG) during movement transitions and FOG-inducing movements and (2) identify neurological biomarkers associated with FOG and FOG-inducing movements. To achieve this, the investigators will assess vestibular activity using the noninvasive neuromodulation technique of electrical vestibular stimulation (EVS, Experiments 1 and 2) and assess cortical activity by recording via electroencephalography (EEG, Experiments 3 and 4, no stimulation included). These experiments will investigate the vestibular (EVS Experiments) and cortical (EEG experiments) contributions to movement transitions during standing, walking, turning, and changing movement rates. Upon completion of this project, the investigators expect to provide a new understanding of key neural systems (vestibular and cortical) involved in the pathogenesis of movement impairment and freezing episodes during movement transitions including gait initiation, turning, and changing movement rates, in people with PD. An increased understanding of the temporal dynamics of systems involved in FOG and FOG-inducing movements could later guide the development and delivery of novel interventions (e.g. closed-loop deep brain stimulation \[DBS\] or non-invasive brain stimulation) to decrease the incidence and severity of FOG episodes, reducing fall risk and morbidity.

Deep Brain Stimulation for Parkinson's Disease
Minneapolis, Minnesota
This protocol will characterize the effects of deep brain stimulation (DBS) location (both adverse and beneficial) on motor signs in people with Parkinson's disease (PD). This information can be used to inform future DBS protocols to tailor stimulation to the specific needs of a patient. If targeted dorsal GP stimulation is shown to significantly improve motor features that are typically resistant to dopamine replacement therapy, these experiments will likely have major impact on clinical practice by providing a potential strategy to these medically intractable symptoms.

Caregiver Support Technology for Dementia
Rochester, Minnesota
This research is being done to develop a unique matching process for caregivers of persons living with dementia, such as Alzheimer's disease, Lewy body dementia, frontotemporal degeneration, or other dementia syndromes. Dementia caregivers often assume greater caregiving burden than do non-dementia caregivers, and the caregiving duration tends to be longer. Many caregivers do not have the adequate support they need. Peer-to-peer support has been shown to improve quality of life, more engagement with services, improve caregiver health, and reduce hospitalizations in the person they are caring for. This study will help determine whether caregivers of persons with dementia would find a technology-based caregiver matching program valuable for the purpose of emotional support.

Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation for Anxiety in Parkinson's Disease
Saint Paul, Minnesota
Parkinson's disease (PD) is the second most common neurodegenerative disease after Alzheimer's dementia. Anxiety in PD is common, has major effects on quality of life and contributes to increased disability. The reported prevalence of anxiety in PD ranges widely and is estimated up to 40%. Treatment with oral medications is not always effective or tolerated. TMS has been shown to be effective and safe in anxiety and general anxiety disorder (GAD), but there is only limited data available for Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) treatment of anxiety in PD. Area 8Av is a parcellation based on Human connectome project within the left prefrontal cortex and is associated with GAD. Given the area's associations with mood disorders, its functional connectivity with large-scale brain networks involved in PD, and its anatomical accessibility by TMS, this may be an important target for anxiety in PD.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much do Parkinson's Disease clinical trials in Minnesota 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 Minnesota 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 Minnesota 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 Minnesota 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 Minnesota 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 Minnesota?
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 Minnesota?
Most recently, we added Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation for Anxiety in Parkinson's Disease, Freezing of Gait for Parkinson's Disease and Deep Brain Stimulation for Parkinson's Disease to the Power online platform.
