About this study

The purpose of our study is to evaluate Vibrotactile Coordinated Reset stimulation (vCR) and its effects on Parkinson's symptoms. vCR will be administered with a device called the Stanford Glove. vCR is expected to provide patients with a non-invasive alternative to the most widely used treatments such as Levodopa and/or deep brain stimulation. Patients will be followed for 14 months.

Read the detailed description

The purpose of this study is to test the efficacy of vibrotactile coordinated reset stimulation on human subject participants with Parkinson's disease and inform the investigators on whether unilateral stimulation could be as effective as bilateral stimulation at producing clinically significant improvements in symptoms.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Stanford GloveDevice

    The non-invasive neuromodulation hardware system comprises two wireless controllers/battery packs which are fastened to the top of each hand via an adjustable elastic strap. Each controller is equipped with four vibrotactile fingertip stimulators, also known as tappers. There is a total of eight tappers (for index, middle, ring and pinkie of each hand) per system.

What is being measured

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

  1. Change in MDS-Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale Part III Scale Score

    Mean change in the MDS-Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (MDS-UPDRS) Part III score.

    Minimum score - 0 indicates normal functioning Maximum score - 132 indicated severe impairment

    Lower scores indicate greater functionality and higher scores indicate severe impairment in functionality.

    Measured: Baseline and month 6

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Stanford Glove in people with Parkinson Disease, run by Stanford University 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: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 19 Aug 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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

Contact Jessica Yankulova (650-474-9547, jessky@stanford.edu), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Change in MDS-Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale Part III Scale Score (time frame: Baseline and month 6). 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 19 Aug 2024.
