Trial Outcomes & Findings for Adaptive Deep Brain Stimulation (aDBS) Study (Early Adapter) Part II (NCT NCT07106242)

NCT ID: NCT07106242

Last Updated: 2026-03-19

Results Overview

Comparison of TEED between aDBS and cDBS at aDBS treatment phase (Visit 2 and Visit 3). The TEED was computed using the average stimulation currents from the timeline data during the last 14 days at Visit 2 and Visit 3.

Participant Flow

First enrollment: November 29, 2021 Last patient last visit: October 23, 2023 The study was conducted at two sites located in Japan. Participants were either completed the Early Adapter I study, or they had undergone a standard assessment demonstrating their tolerability of aDBS (preferred mode).

Randomization and Treatment Assignment 7 days or more after cDBS has been set and within 30 days after the baseline visit. 25 subjects were randomly assigned during a randomization to either sequence, the first intervention was aDBS then cDBS (aDBS -\> cDBS) or the first intervention was cDBS then aDBS (cDBS -\> aDBS).

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: First 45-day period after the randomization with aDBS or cDBS treatment as randomized, will be compared to the following second 45-day period of aDBS or cDBS treatment.

Population: Fourteen patients were randomized to aDBS -\> cDBS treatment sequence and eleven patients were randomized to cDBS -\> aDBS treatment sequence.

Comparison of TEED between aDBS and cDBS at aDBS treatment phase (Visit 2 and Visit 3). The TEED was computed using the average stimulation currents from the timeline data during the last 14 days at Visit 2 and Visit 3.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: A 45-day period of aDBS treatment will be compared to a 45-day period of cDBS treatment

Population: Patients with secondary endpoints available were included in the analysis.

The secondary objective is to demonstrate maintenance within an optimal beta LFP threshold of beta LFP power during aDBS mode compared to cDBS. The optimal beta LFP threshold indicates values between upper and lower LFP threshold preset for each patient.
