Trial summary

Parkinson's disease psychosis encompasses a range of symptoms, including minor phenomena, frank hallucinations, and delusions. Minor phenomena include passage hallucinations (fleeting sense of a person, animal or object passing in the periphery), presence hallucinations (feeling of nearby presence), and illusions… Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Characterization and Progression of Minor Phenomena in Parkinson's Disease

Parkinson's disease psychosis encompasses a range of symptoms, including minor phenomena, frank hallucinations, and delusions. Minor phenomena include passage hallucinations (fleeting sense of a person, animal or object passing in the periphery), presence hallucinations (feeling of nearby presence), and illusions (misrepresentation of external stimuli). Some forms of PD psychosis may be progressive. The primary objective of this study is to:

  1. To determine the cumulative probability of developing hallucinations or delusions over time in individuals with PD minor phenomena followed for 36 months.
Being tested

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Cumulative probability of developing hallucinations or delusions over time

    Kaplan-Meier curves will be used to describe the cumulative probability of hallucinations and/or delusions over time. Participants will be determined to have met the primary endpoint if they have hallucinations and/or delusions on the basis of interview or initiate treatment with an antipsychotic medication.

    Measured: baseline to 36 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Parkinson Disease and Parkinson Disease Psychosis, run by University of Rochester at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 8 Mar 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Cumulative probability of developing hallucinations or delusions over time (time frame: baseline to 36 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 8 Mar 2024.
