# Increase time without involuntary movements

**Goal (in five words):** Increase time without involuntary movements

**Official Title:** Adaptive vs Conventional Deep Brain Stimulation for Parkinson's Disease: A Multi-center Randomized Controlled Trial

**Trial ID:** [NCT07635823](https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT07635823)

## Key Facts

- **Phase:** NA
- **Status:** RECRUITING
- **Study Type:** INTERVENTIONAL
- **Sponsor:** Beijing Pins Medical Co., Ltd
- **Target Enrollment:** 60 participants
- **Start Date:** 2026-05-16
- **Completion Date:** 2027-05-31
- **Conditions:** Parkinson Disease(PD)
- **Interventions:** adaptive deep brain stimulation, conventional deep brain stimulation
- **Intervention Types:** DEVICE

## Summary For Families

The goal is to see if PINS Medical's rechargeable implanted closed-loop deep brain stimulation system (called G1010R) can increase daily time without troublesome involuntary movements, reduce periods when medication wears off, and improve movement, sleep, and overall quality of life. Participants will have the device surgically implanted and then try two ways of using it: adaptive closed-loop stimulation that automatically adjusts using real-time brain signals and sleep monitoring, and traditional continuous stimulation with fixed settings, with each person testing both options while blinded. The trial is looking for adults 18 and older with idiopathic Parkinson's whose symptoms are moderate to advanced when off medication (stage 2.5 to 4), either new candidates for bilateral stimulation surgery or existing bilateral stimulation patients with only one battery who respond to conventional therapy and agree to replace their device. Participants must be able to give written consent and complete all study visits and procedures.

## What This Actually Involves

**Placebo** _(From the protocol)_: This is a crossover trial: instead of staying in one group, you move through a sequence of assignments, so you receive the active treatment during at least one period of the study. Ask the coordinator for the exact sequence and how long each phase lasts.

**Visits** _(From the protocol)_: There are nine study visits across five trial phases.
  > "progress through five trial phases: screening/surgery, cDBS optimization, aDBS optimization, crossover evaluation, and long-term follow-up across nine visits."

**Procedures** _(From the protocol)_:
- Brain surgery / implanted device — Invasive
  > "adaptive deep brain stimulation"
- Surgical procedure — Invasive
  > "Participants will undergo surgical implantation of the neurostimulator system and progress through five trial phases: screening/surgery, cDBS optimization, aDBS optimization, crossover evaluation, and long-term follow-up across nine visits."

**Washout** _(Ask the coordinator)_: Ask the coordinator whether you would need to stop or pause any of your current medications before or during the study (a washout period), and for how long.

**Travel & reimbursement** _(Ask the coordinator)_: Ask the coordinator whether travel, parking, or your time is reimbursed or compensated, and what is covered.
