Study in Parkinson's Disease of Exercise: Phase 3 Clinical Trail

The University of Minnesota is one of 27 sites across North America participating in the SPARX3 treadmill exercise study. The purpose of the SPARX3 study is to examine the effects of aerobic exercise on people diagnosed with early-stage, untreated Parkinson's disease. The study will compare the effects of moderate-intensity treadmill exercise to high-intensity treadmill exercise on the progression of Parkinson’s disease.
