SYMBYX Research Currently Underway

Trial Location Brief of Research Scientific Partners Status Press Release
Hamilton, Canada (2023)
A clinical trial is underway to assess the effectiveness of the SYMBYX system, which consists of the PDCare laser and the SYMBYX Neuro helmet, in treating motor and non motor symptoms of Parkinson’s disease. The study has been designed as a randomized controlled trial, including a placebo group, and will involve 60 participants who will receive treatment with either the SYMBYX system or a placebo. Participants in the trial will receive exercise physiotherapy as well as light therapy. The aim of the trial is to determine whether the SYMBYX system is an effective treatment option for Parkinson’s disease symptoms.

Adelaide, Australia (2023)
Cinical trial is examining the effectiveness of the SYMBYX system, consisting of the PDCare laser and the Neuro helmet, in treating non-motor symptoms of Parkinson’s disease. The study is designed as a randomized controlled trial, including a placebo group, and involves 36 participants who will receive either the SYMBYX system or a placebo treatment. The aim of the trial is to assess whether the SYMBYX system is a viable treatment option for non-motor symptoms associated with Parkinson’s disease.

Brisbane, Australia (2023)
A clinical trial is being conducted to test the effectiveness of the SYMBYX laser light in reducing symptoms associated with Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) in young adults. The study aims to evaluate the efficacy of the treatment and determine whether the SYMBYX laser light can be used as a potential therapeutic option for managing IBD symptoms in this population.
