adaptive deep brain stimulationconventional deep brain stimulation
adaptive deep brain stimulation: adaptive deep brain stimulation (aDBS) is a stimulation mode that measuring local field potential (LFP) signal nearby the electrodes of lead in the deep brain and decoding the signal in real-time, automatically adjusts amplitude of stimulation controlled by algorithm embedded in DBS device. aDBS is able to recognize patient status and allocate proper stimulation parameters based on need to treat Parkinson symptoms.
conventional deep brain stimulation: conventional deep brain stimulation is a common stimulation mode that has been used for years. It uses fixed stimulation parameters to treat Parkinson's disease and has been proved effective to motor symptoms.
Study summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of an adaptive deep brain stimulation (aDBS) system for managing Parkinson's disease symptoms. Researchers will compare closed-loop stimulation (which automatically adjusts therapy using real-time brain signals and sleep monitoring) against traditional continuous stimulation (fixed settings) in a randomized, double-blind, crossover study. Participants will undergo surgical implantation of PINS Medical's G1010R neurostimulator, followed by alternating treatment phases where each patient experiences both aDBS and conventional open-loop stimulation modes. Outcomes will assess improvements in without troublesome dyskinesia daily time, motor symptoms (e.g., tremors, rigidity), quality of life, and sleep quality across both therapy periods.

Primary outcome measure(s)
Proportion of aDBS Subjects With "On" Time Without Troublesome Dyskinesia Exceeding the Threshold — about one month each after randomization In the Motor-Sleep Diary, in 30-minute intervals, patients recorded whether they were in the "On" condition (with dyskinesia, with non-troublesome dyskinesia, with troublesome dyskinesia), "Off" condition, or asleep. The "On" time without troublesome dyskinesia combined the categories of "On" time without dyskinesia and "On" time with non-troublesome dyskinesia. The Motor-Sleep Diary was collected at both the cDBS treatment and aDBS treatment during the crossover evaluation phases. The threshold was determined using the hours of "On" time without troublesome dyskinesia for aDBS is no worse than 2 hours per day less than cDBS. The proportion of aDBS subjects exceeding the threshold was the primary endpoint.
