What is the
Pipeline Project?
The Parkinson Pipeline Project is a grassroots group of advocates
whose goal is to provide the patient perspective in the
treatment development process. Through education,
consultation, and participation with all stakeholders -
including industry and the FDA - the Parkinson Pipeline
Project hopes to increase clinical trial participation and
accelerate approved treatment options. New PD treatments
are followed from pre-clinical development to approval in the
Pd Pipeline Database found on our website. More info...

Declaration of
Clinical Research Rights and Responsibilities
for People With Parkinson’s
Clinical research is essential to
the development of new therapies and treatments for
Parkinson’s disease. Yet, due to a number of factors,
including a lack of awareness and understanding of the
research process, only one percent of people with
Parkinson’s participate. This is far below the number
needed, delaying many promising trials. Read the entire Declaration!
