Procedure
DBS Surgery for Hand Dystonia
Recruiting1 awardPhase 1 & 2
Bethesda, Maryland
This trial is testing a new procedure to treat focal hand dystonia, a condition that causes involuntary muscle movements. A device is placed in the chest and attached to wires in the brain, which stimulating the areas affected by dystonia can help to block nerve signals and improve symptoms.

DystoniaNet Diagnosis for Dystonia
Recruiting1 award3 criteria
Boston, Massachusetts
This trial aims to validate a computer program called DystoniaNet that helps doctors diagnose dystonia more accurately. It targets patients with isolated dystonia who often experience delays in diagnosis. The program uses artificial intelligence to learn from data and identify signs of the disorder, improving diagnosis speed and accuracy.
Procedure
Deep Brain Stimulation for Parkinson's Disease
Recruiting1 award
Gainesville, Florida
This trial is testing different types of deep brain stimulation to see which is most effective in treating Parkinson's, essential tremor, and multiple sclerosis. The results will help design more effective stimulation patterns and aid in understanding how DBS works.

Trihexyphenidyl for Cerebral Palsy
Recruiting1 awardPhase 1
Kansas City, Missouri
This trial is investigating how a medication called trihexyphenidyl affects children with dystonic cerebral palsy. Researchers want to learn how the body processes this medication in pediatric patients and if genetics play

Procedure
Deep Brain Stimulation for Spasmodic Dysphonia and Tremor
Recruiting1 award3 criteria
San Francisco, California
This trial studies how Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) affects voice control in patients with dystonia and essential tremor. DBS sends electrical impulses to brain areas that manage movement, aiming to improve voice function in these patients. Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) has been used to treat severe movement disorders, including Parkinson's disease, dystonia, and essential tremor.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need insurance to participate in a trial?
Almost all clinical trials will cover the cost of the 'trial drug' — so no insurance is required for this. For trials where this trial drug is given alongside an already-approved medication, there may be a cost (which your insurance would normally cover).
Is there any support for travel costs?
Many of the teams running clinical trials will cover the cost of transportation to-and-from their care center.
Will I know what medication I am taking?
This depends on the specific study. If you're worried about receiving a placebo, you can actively filter out these trials using our search.
How long do clinical trials last?
Some trials will only require a single visit, while others will continue until your disease returns. It's fairly common for a trial to last somewhere between 1 and 6 months.
Do you verify all the trials on your website?
All of the trials listed on Power have been formally registered with the US Food and Drug Administration. Beyond this, some trials on Power have been formally 'verified' if the team behind the trial has completed an additional level of verification with our team.
How quickly will I hear back from a clinical trial?
Sadly, this response time can take anywhere from 6 hours to 2 weeks. We're working hard to speed up how quickly you hear back — in general, verified trials respond to patients within a few days.
