ExAblate Transcranial MR Guided Focused Ultrasound for the Treatment of Parkinson's Disease

17 september 2020 uppdaterad av: InSightec

A Feasibility Study to Evaluate Safety and Initial Effectiveness of ExAblate Transcranial MR Guided Focused Ultrasound for Unilateral Thalamotomy in the Treatment of Medication-Refractory Tremor Dominant Idiopathic Parkinson's Disease.

This is a feasibility study to evaluate the safety and initial effectiveness of unilateral ExAblate thermal ablation of the Vim thalamic nucleus of subjects suffering from medication-refractory, idiopathic, tremor-dominant PD, using the ExAblate Transcranial system compared to a Sham Vim thalamotomy procedure.

Data will be collected to establish the basic safety of this type of treatment as the basis for later studies that will evaluate its full clinical efficacy. The Sham treatment data will be used to evaluate placebo effect from treatment.

Studieöversikt

Detaljerad beskrivning

Subjects who sign informed consent and pass all eligibility criteria will be randomized to a treatment assignment. During treatment, the assigned treatment (ExAblate Transcranial or Sham ExAblate Transcranial)will be delivered. Subjects are followed in a blinded fashion for three (3) months. After the 3-month assessment, subjects will be unblinded and told their treatment assignment. Subjects receiving Sham ExAblate Transcranial treatment who still meet criteria will be crossed over and receive an active ExAblate Transcranial treatment. Subjects will be followed for up to two (2) years. Follow-up at 1 week, 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, 9 months, 12 months and up to two (2) years includes Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS) scoring, mental and cognitive functional testing and questionnaires.

Tremor Motor Score Percent Change From Baseline.
Tidsram: Baseline, Month 3
The percent change from baseline to Month 3 follow-up in upper extremity Tremor-Motor scores for the treated side is a sub-scale of Clinical Rating Scale for Tremor (CRST) Part A and Part B sum that was used to measure treated-side upper extremity tremor changes over time. Tremor-motor scores range from 0-32 points. Individual subject's scores at Baseline and 3 Months were used to calculate percent change from baseline and averaged across subjects. High percent change from baseline is better (shows improvement).
Baseline, Month 3
Tremor Motor Scores - Clinical Rating Scale for Tremor - Treated Side Upper Extremity Parts A & B.
Tidsram: Baseline, Month 3, Month 12
Upper extremity Tremor-Motor score for the treated side is a sub-scale of Clinical Rating Scale for Tremor (CRST) Part A and Part B sum that measures treated-side upper extremity tremor changes over time. Tremor-motor scores range from 0-32 points for each side with lower scores being a better outcome. Subject's Tremor-Motor scores for the test and sham control groups were averaged at each study visit.
Baseline, Month 3, Month 12
Functional Disabilities - Clinical Rating Scale for Tremor Part C - Functional Disabilities
Tidsram: Baseline, Month 3, Month 12
The Clinical Rating Scale for Tremor (CRST) Part C is a measure of functional disability due to tremor. The Clinical Rating Scale for Tremor Part C consists of 8 items each scored from 0 to 4. Thus, the total score summed ranges from 0 to 32 and provides an overall assessment of activities of daily living. Low scores on the Clinical Rating Scale for Tremor (CRST) Part C are better. Low scores show improvement in functional disabilities compared to higher scores.
