Online Clinical Trials
Observational trials are as the name suggests – researchers follow a group of volunteers, monitoring various aspects of their health. In Parkinson’s disease, this type of data can allow for a deeper understanding of the disease. These factors contribute to its development and the course of the disease for example, all of which help in developing new treatments.
Today, 80 percent of trials fail to recruit enough volunteers within planned timelines.

Improving Parkinson's trials neuroprotective therapies using a Delphi process
Our Partners at Cure Parkinson’s Trust are funding a study looking at the design of clinical trials
Dr Marie-Louise Zeissler and the research team at Plymouth University (UK) are trying to understand the best way to test new treatments that may stop or slow the progression of Parkinson’s.
The aim of the research is to reach an agreement on the design of clinical trials for neuroprotective therapies, hopefully speeding up the process for finding a cure.
What is involved?
Receiving 5 online questionnaires over the next 6 months. Each questionnaire should take approximately 3o minutes to complete.
For more information, please read the participant information sheet.
Who do the researchers need?
30 people with Parkinson’s and 30 partners of people with Parkinson’s.
