Trial summary

The purpose of this study is to provide proof-of-concept that the test product can perform as intended in an intra-operative setting and the responses to the test product are perceivable in a person. The study will also compare results of the test product to the commercially-available product. Read more about this study

Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Subject is indicated for Activa® DBS implant for the treatment of Parkinson's disease and scheduled for surgery at the study site.
  • Subject is willing to sign the informed consent to participate in the study.
  • Subject is 18 years of age or older.
  • Subject is a male or non-pregnant female.
  • Subject has no factors that would put the subject at an additional risk for intra-operative or postoperative bleeding. This includes underlying disorders of the coagulation cascade (eg, hemophilia), disorders that affect platelet count or function (eg, Von Willebrand's disease), as well as administration of any anti-platelet or anti-coagulant medication in the 7 days prior to surgery, or any history of anticoagulant or aspirin use, that in the view of the neurosurgeon or neurologist would place the subject at an increased risk for intra-operative or postoperative bleeding.

Who cannot join

  • Subject is indicated for DBS for treating a disorder other than Parkinson's disease.
  • Subject has any medical contraindications to undergoing DBS surgery, (eg, infection, coagulopathy, or significant cardiac or other medical risk factors for surgery).
  • Subject has a history of hemorrhagic stroke.
  • Subject has a history of a neurosurgical ablation procedure.
  • Subject is currently enrolled in or plans to enroll in any concurrent study that may confound the results of this study, as determined by the investigator or Medtronic.
  • Subject has a diagnosis of acute myocardial infarction or cardiac arrest less than or equal to 6 months prior to the screening testing.

  • Subject has a history of a seizure disorder
  • Subject requires short surgery time due to general health issues, as determined by the investigator.
  • Subject is a woman who is pregnant or planning to become pregnant, or a woman of child-bearing potential, who is not using a medically-acceptable method of birth control. Women of child-bearing potential must undergo a pregnancy test, with a clear negative result, no more than 7 days prior to the investigational procedure visit.

About this study

Official title: Deep Brain Stimulation Effects: Human Proof-of-Concept Study

The purpose of this study is to provide proof-of-concept that the test product can perform as intended in an intra-operative setting and the responses to the test product are perceivable in a person. The study will also compare results of the test product to the commercially-available product.

Hypothesis: the test product will elicit successful test results in over 90% of test product.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. The HFR0001 device can elicit distinct intra-operative responses in subject symptoms.

    Responses include testing parameters and symptom effects

    Measured: 9 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Adverse events that occur with the acute implantation and intra-operative testing of the study device.

    Characterization of all adverse events for all subjects from the beginning of the implant procedure through study discontinuation.

    Measured: 9 months.

Timeline

From the start of the study to its completion; the mark is today. Estimated dates are the sponsor’s plan.

  1. First posted2 Apr 2010 (estimated)
  2. Study startApr 2010
  3. Primary completionNov 2011
  4. Study completionNov 2011

Why it stopped: The goal of collecting proof-of-concept information was met through additional modeling studies, new published evidence and information collected from the study

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Study device HFR0001 in people with Parkinson's Disease, run by MedtronicNeuro at 1 site in Germany.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 9 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 2 Aug 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Germany. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study was stopped early (reason given: The goal of collecting proof-of-concept information was met through additional modeling studies, new published evidence and information collected from the study). Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The HFR0001 device can elicit distinct intra-operative responses in subject symptoms. (time frame: 9 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 2 Aug 2013.
