Udall Project 2 Aim 2A&C

Mechanisms and Effects of Pallidal Deep Brain Stimulation on Levodopa Resistant Motor Signs in Parkinson's Disease; Udall Project 2 Aim 2A&C

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 3 Mar 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

This protocol will leverage the novel (on-label, FDA-approved) local field potential measuring capability of the Medtronic Percept™ PC or RC DBS system to study the effects of globus pallidus internus, globus pallidus externus (GPi, GPe), and subthalamic nucleus (STN) DBS on: the wash-out and wash-in dynamics of motor behavior and local field potentials (LFPs) and correlations between fluctuations in gait and LFPs during activities of daily living (recorded over a minimum of 4 weeks). These experiments will elucidate the relationships between LFPs oscillations, lower limb function, postural control and gait performance.

What you commit to

  • Study type: Observational
  • Planned participants: 36
  • From 1 Jan 2023 to the primary completion date, 1 Mar 2027
  • 1 site in 1 country
  • Visits and tests: ask the trial team, the registry does not list them

Built from the registry fields of ClinicalTrials.gov. It describes the study, not your situation.

Who cannot take part

Copied verbatim from ClinicalTrials.gov and grouped by topic. Only the trial team decides who can take part.

Other illness

  • history of musculoskeletal disorders that significantly affects the ability to perform the motor tasks in the specific experiment in question
  • history of dementia or cognitive impairment
  • other significant neurological disorder as determined by the PI

Other

  • post-operative complications or adverse effects (e.g. ON stimulation dystonias) that affect patient safety or confound the experiment
  • lack of capacity to consent (as identified by MaCAT-CR)

Who the study is looking for

  • Receiving DBS therapy in GP for treatment of PD
  • Implanted with Medtronic Percept DBS system
  • At least 3 months since initial activation of the neurostimulator
  • For the "At Home" experiment only: participants with DBS settings that are sensing compatible.

Sex: All · Does not accept healthy volunteers
