Current Clinical Trials
The Parkinson's Institute is currently conducting 29 Clinical Trials. We are a leader in getting answers to the questions about PD. If you would like to see if there is a clinical trial that matches your situation, please contact us at trials@thepi.org or at 408-542-5608.
Some Clinical Trials test safety and efficacy of new or existing drugs. Other trials involve testing non-drug therapies and innovative medical devices.

What are the steps to becoming a Clinical Trials subject?
- Contact one of our coordinators using one of these three ways:
- Complete the Clinical Trials Volunteer Form
- Send an email to trials@thepi.org requesting to participate in clinical trial studies.
- Call our Clinical Trials voicemail box at 408-542-5608 and a Clinical Trials coordinator will contact you within 3 business days
- If you are a Parkinson's or Multiple Systems Atrophy (MSA) patient, once the coordinators have reviewed your eligibility for a study, you will be asked to request from your neurologist your medical records pertaining to Parkinson’s disease or MSA. These records should be sent to The Parkinson’s Institute (Attn: Clinical Trials; Fax: 408-734-9208; 675 Almanor Avenue, Sunnyvale, CA 94085). This step is not necessary for anyone who is already a patient at The Parkinson’s Institute.
- After the coordinators have received and reviewed your records, a coordinator will contact you about your eligibility for current Clinical Trials and potentially schedule a Screening Visit at The Parkinson’s Institute. You may want to consider these questions to ask.
