Summary

The goal of this prospective, multi-center, randomized, double-blind, crossover clinical trial is to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of adaptive DBS (aDBS) and conventional DBS (cDBS) delivered through the AlphaDBS system, in levodopa-responsive Parkinson's disease subjects. Data from previous studies conducted in Europe indicate that the use of the AlphaDBS system is safe and effective in both aDBS and cDBS modes. However, such studies suggest that aDBS may lead to more ON-time without troublesome dyskinesias in some patients. The study is designed to first demonstrate safety of effectiveness of cDBS, then to directly compare effectiveness of aDBS relative to cDBS. Subjects enrolled in the study will undergo multiple visits to assess the improvement of PD symptoms and will be randomized to Mode 1 for three months, followed by Mode 2. At the end of Mode 2, subjects will select their preferred mode, which will be maintained for 3 additional months. Subjects will complete patient diaries at different time points to evaluate their symptoms throughout the day.
