What is a clinical trial?
- Clinical trials are research studies that explore whether a medical strategy, treatment or device is safe and effective for people. Before people are given a new intervention (drug, device, or treatment), it is carefully studied in the laboratory or in animals. Studies with the most promising results are then moved into clinical trials with people. Clinical trials are used to evaluate new and better ways to treat, prevent, detect, diagnose, and manage symptoms of diseases.
Why Participate?
- By participating in clinical research, you help medical science by providing valuable information about treatments and prevention of disease. Most treatments we use today are the result of past clinical trials. One way to gain access to promising new interventions is to participate in a clinical trial while also helping science.
Eligibility
- Researchers follow clinical trials guidelines when deciding who can participate in a study. These guidelines are called Inclusion/Exclusion Criteria. These criteria are based on factors such as age, gender, the type and stage of a disease, treatment history, and other medical conditions. Trial coordinators can provide additional information about individual trials.
What are the benefits and risks of participating in a clinical trial?
- By being in a clinical trial you help advance medicine and help future patients. You may also have access to promising treatments by joining a clinical trial. However, all clinical trials have risks. There may be side effects or other risks, which may or may not be worse than those from regular care. The intervention (drug, device, treatment) may not work for you, even if it helps others and you may get a placebo. Joining a research trial may be more burdensome due to more frequent visits. However, more visits may give you more attention and monitoring which you would not normally get by your regular doctor.
Are the research staff vaccinated against Covid-19?
- Yes. All staff are compliant with mandates set forth by the state and Stanford University unless the staff have a valid exception
Are research staff wearing protective equipment?
- Yes. All research staff are required to wear masks and may have additional requirements based upon each building protocol. All buildings for clinical care such as our Stanford Neuroscience Health Center (SNHC) have requirements for Health Screening, physical distancing, and masks.
Are there safety protocols required due to the Covid-19 pandemic?
- Yes. Stanford University has safety requirement protocols and some buildings locations have additional protocols as mandated by Stanford Healthcare.
Are there safety protocols for visitors arriving to buildings?
- Yes. There are requirements for masks for all visitors. There may be additional requirements based upon Stanford University, county, and state mandates. All research participants are required be tested for covid-19 within 72 hours of arriving to a University building or are required to be vaccinated against covid-19. All visitors are required to answer health screenings before arriving. This may be subject to change according to local and state mandates.

PARKINSON'S DISEASE
The Role of the Gut Microbiome in Parkinson’s Disease
Purpose: The primary purpose of the study is to determine how changes in the gut microbiome of Parkinson’s patients relate to changes in peripheral inflammation and metabolism, which are shown to play a role in the development of Parkinson’s disease. We will determine which features of the gut microbiome change in Parkinson’s patients and how these relate to the levels of inflammatory markers and serum metabolites. The goal of the study is to inform current understanding of how gut molecules made by gut microbes may modulate onset and progression of Parkinson’s disease. Future implications may include the identification of microbiome-derived biomarkers for earlier and more accurate diagnosis and targets for disease prevention and treatment. This study will include collection of small amounts of stool and blood as well as a brief lifestyle survey. We are enrolling people with confirmed diagnosis of Parkinson’s Disease and as well as healthy individuals from the same household.

Vibrotactile Coordinated Reset: A Non-invasive Treatment for Parkinson's Disease
Purpose: The purpose of our study is to evaluate Vibrotactile Coordinated Reset stimulation (vCR) and its effects on motor ability within Parkinson's patients. vCR will be administered with a device called the VT Brain 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. This study will include a dedicated sham that will aid in understanding true treatment effects from vCR.

Crest 2 - Carotid Revascularization And Medical Management For Asymptomatic Carotid Stenosis Trial
The main purpose of the study is to find out if the incidence of stroke or death is different or the same between subjects that receive medical management alone compared to subjects that receive medical management in combination with carotid endarterectomy (CEA) or carotid artery stenting (CAS). The occurrence of stroke and death may be higher, lower, or the same between groups.

AXIOMATIC-SSP: Oral Factor XIa Inhibitor for the Prevention of New Ischemic Stroke in Patients Receiving Aspirin and Clopidogrel Following Acute Ischemic Stroke or Transient Ischemic Attack (TIA)
The purpose of this study is to determine if an investigational study drug, BMS-986177, which inhibits factor XIa (one of the components in the clotting process) is safe and effective in preventing future strokes when given daily with antiplatelet medication (aspirin and clopidogrel) for 21 days, then from Day 22 with aspirin alone, for up to 90 days to subjects who recently experienced stroke or TIA due to blood clots.

RECOVERY STUDIES
Cerebral Spinal Fluid Study
Purpose: The Cerebral Spinal Fluid Study looks at the immune cells and proteins found in cerebral spinal fluid, which coats the site of the stroke. We are studying these immune cells and proteins to look for the presence of brain inflammation and to learn if the inflammation is related to memory loss after stroke. We aim to use this research to develop treatments that reduce brain inflammation and prevent memory loss in stroke survivors.
Eligibility: Participants without a history of back surgery and bleeding disorders and are not taking blood thinners or antiplatelet drugs (aside from aspirin).
Study Schedule: Participants will come to Stanford for a one time spinal fluid collection and then annually, for at least 3 years, for memory and thinking tests and a small blood draw.
Status: Enrollment on hold because of the COVID pandemic
PI: Marion Buckwalter, MD, PhD
StrokeCog
Purpose: StrokeCog observes the long-term effects of stroke on a person’s memory and thinking and whether immune responses play a role in changes to memory and thinking after stroke. We hope to use this research to see if there are immune therapies that can be developed to target memory and thinking problems after stroke.
Eligibility: Patients who’ve had a stroke within the past 6-12 months.
Study Schedule: Participants will come to Stanford annually, for at least 3 years, to undergo some memory and thinking tests and a small blood draw.

vREHAB (Virtual Reality Glove for Hand and Arm Rehabilitation After Stroke)
Purpose: vREHAB examines whether the Neofect Smart Glove (a virtual reality biofeedback glove) is an effective, home-based rehabilitation tool for recovering stroke survivors. Participants use the smart glove to interact with a tablet pre-loaded with games and activities that are similar to standard therapy exercises and motions related to activities of daily living.
Eligibility: Patients who’ve have a stroke within the past 30 days.
Study Schedule: Participants will come to Stanford within 30 days of their stroke, and 6, 12, and 24 weeks after their first in-person visit (4 in-person visits in total).
Status: Enrollment on hold because of the COVID pandemic
PI: Maarten Lansberg, MD, PhD; Kara Flavin MD
STRONG (Genetic Variation, Stress, and Functional Outcomes After Stroke Rehabilitation)
Purpose: STRONG studies how genes and stress interact with rehabilitation therapy to affect recovery. There is wide variability in how well people recover after stroke while in rehab and we hope to better understand the biological factors causing this variability. With this research, we hope to better understand how people recover from stroke and to help individualize future rehabilitation care.
Eligibility: Patients who’ve had a stroke within the past 2-10 days.
Study Schedule: Participants will come to Stanford within 2-10 days of their stroke for a short in-person visit and 3, 6, and 12 months after their first visit.
Status: Enrollment Closed
PI: Maarten Lansberg, MD
The Rehab Glove study
Purpose: We have developed a wireless, computerized glove that stroke survivors with hand weakness and spasticity can wear during daily life. The Rehab Glove provides gentile, vibratory stimulation to your affected hand. No exercises are required. We hope that the Rehab Glove will reduce spasticity and improve hand function after stroke.
Eligibility: Patients who have suffered a stroke at least 6 months ago and who have spasticity in their hand (fingers that curl up or form a fist).
Study Schedule: Participants will come to Stanford every two weeks for four to eight months.
Status: Enrollment on hold because of the COVID pandemic
