About this study

Official title: Post Market Clinical Follow Up Evaluating the Infinity Deep Brain Stimulation Implantable Pulse Generator System

The purpose of this post-market study is to characterize the clinical performance of the Infinity Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) system, including the Implantable Pulse Generator (IPG), directional DBS leads, extensions, iPad clinician programmer, iPod patient controller and related system components.

Participants in the PROGRESS study are not assigned to interventional therapy groups. Participants in the PROGRESS study are followed in an observational format as they receive omnidirectional and then directional DBS programming that is part of routine medical care. Data on symptoms are collected during two different stages of programming, and those outcomes compared to assess the effect of omnidirectional or directional programming.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Omnidirectional stimulationDevice

    At the 3-month follow-up, therapeutic window, symptom relief and side effect thresholds are evaluated at the best level for omnidirectional stimulation with the Infinity DBS lead.

  • Directional stimulationDevice

    At the 3-month follow-up, therapeutic window, symptom relief and side effect thresholds are evaluated using directional contacts at the best segmented level of the Infinity DBS lead.

Study groups in NCT02989610
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Omnidirectional followed by directional DBSOmnidirectional DBS is used for the first 3 months in all subjects, unless not tolerated. Directional DBS is used for months 3-6 in all subjects with a directional DBS lead. Primary end point is based on double-blind testing of omnidirectional vs. directional DBS in randomized order at 3-month follow-up visit. In this Observational study design, all interventions here are therapeutic interventions that are part of the standard of care, rather than assigned as part of an interventional study.
Receives: Device: Omnidirectional stimulation; Device: Directional stimulation

What is being measured

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

  1. Percentage Of Participants With Wider Therapeutic Window With Directional Programming (Superiority)

    Therapeutic window is the range of stimulation amplitude that produces symptom relief without causing side effects. Proportion of subjects with a wider therapeutic window using directional stimulation, compared to a threshold of 60%. Based on randomized, double-blind evaluation using within-subject control.

    Measured: 3-month follow-up visit after initial programming

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Percentage Of Participants With Wider Therapeutic Window With Directional Programming (Non-Inferiority)

    Therapeutic window is the range of stimulation amplitude that produces symptom relief without causing side effects. The proportion of subjects with wider therapeutic window using directional stimulation will be compared to a performance goal of 60% with a non-inferiority threshold of 40%. Based on randomized, double-blind evaluation using within-subject control.

    Measured: 3-month follow-up visit after initial programming

  2. Change In UPDRS III Score On and Off Stimulation (Medication On) at 3 and 6 Months

    Change with stimulation on vs. off in Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS) part III motor examination at 3 months using omnidirectional stimulation, compared to 6 months using directional stimulation. UPDRS part III contains 27 questions used to measures severity of Parkinson's motor symptoms. The range of scores is 0 to 108, with higher score indicating greater symptoms. Subjects are on medication for the assessment.

    Measured: 3 and 6 Months Follow-Up Visits

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Parkinson Disease, run by Abbott Medical Devices at 41 sites in 8 countries.

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 3 inclusion and 3 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 22 Aug 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 41 sites in United States, Germany, Australia, Italy, Poland and 3 more countries. 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.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 19 Nov 2020). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Percentage Of Participants With Wider Therapeutic Window With Directional Programming (Superiority) (time frame: 3-month follow-up visit after initial programming). 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 22 Aug 2024.
