A Study to Evaluate an Investigational Drug (NLY01)Treatment to be used in Early-Stage Parkinson’s Disease
Official TitleMulticenter, Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled Study to Evaluate the Efficacy, Safety, and Tolerability of 36 Weeks of Treatment with NLY01 in Early-stage Parkinson’s DiseasePurposeThis research is studying a new drug, NLY01, in a large number of persons to learn about its effects in people with early-stage Parkinson’s disease (PD). Researchers want to know whether NLY01 helps lessen symptoms and signs of early PD, as well as slow the progression of the disease.

A Study to Evaluate an Investigational Drug (tavapadon) as a Possible Treatment in Early Parkinson’s Disease
Official TitleA PHASE 3, DOUBLE-BLIND, RANDOMIZED, PLACEBO-CONTROLLED, PARALLEL-GROUP, 27-WEEK TRIAL TO EVALUATE THE EFFICACY, SAFETY, AND TOLERABILITY OF TWO FIXED DOSES OF TAVAPADON IN EARLY PARKINSON’S DISEASE (TEMPO-1 TRIAL)PurposeThe main purpose of this study is to learn how well tavapadon (the study drug) works as a possible treatment for Parkinson’s disease and how safe the study drug is.

A Study to Evaluate If Real-Time Visual Feedback on Breathing Influences Time to Exhaustion
Official TitleThe influence of receiving real-time visual feedback on breathing during treadmill running to exhaustionPurposeThe purpose of this research is to assess if receiving real-time visual feedback on your breathing pattern during a run has any influence on time to exhaustion.
The feedback will be provided through animations on a screen placed in front of the treadmill that open and close as the chest and abdomen expand and contract. Research has shown that you want the chest and abdomen to expand and contract at the same time to achieve the most efficient breathing possible, meaning you will want the animations to open and close at the same time.
The ultimate objective is to see if this feedback allowed the participant to last longer until reaching their exhaustion point.
Could this study be right for you?- Healthy adults who run 5 to 20 miles per week
- Have NOT been injured while running in the past six months
- Have NOT been medically diagnosed with breathing deficiencies
- must be age 18 or older
Those who are interested in participating will be directed to complete a survey, found at go.osu.edu/RunningAndBreathing, to ensure that they meet the previously mentioned criteria.Age Range18 and up -
