Photopharmics To Feature Photo Neurostimulation At The 2025 Movement Disorders Society International Congress
In the company’s Phase 2 study, photo neurostimulation demonstrated promising results for both non-motor symptoms (e.g., sleep, alertness, urinary regulation, mood, apathy, fatigue) and persistent motor symptoms (many of which are inadequately addressed by standard dopaminergic therapy). The device is designed for home use, in parallel with patients’ existing PD treatments. It has received FDA Breakthrough Device designation.“
Many people with Parkinson’s continue to live with both non-motor and motor symptoms that aren’t fully managed by existing medications,” said Kent Savage, CEO and co-founder of PhotoPharmics. “Our Photo Neurostimulation approach aims to address the unmet needs for people with PD, and we’re eager to share our progress and engage with the movement disorders community at the Congress.”
At Booth #732, visitors can expect:
• Updates on the Light for PD pivotal trial (double-blind, randomized, n ≈ 350, anticipated completion April 2026)
• Highlights from Phase 2 clinical results, including improvements in both motor and non-motor endpoints
• Conversations about partnerships and collaborations with clinicians, researchers, and patient advocacy groups
“Photo Neurostimulation is unlike any other light device in the market — it’s engineered for disease-specific pathways in PD,” said Dan Adams, Science Officer and co-founder. “We believe pairing our device with standard therapy will broaden the scope of symptomatic control without adding systemic burden.”
