RNS® System Post-Approval Study in Epilepsy
The purpose of the study is to follow patients with partial onset seizures prospectively over
5 years in the real-world environment to gather data on the long-term safety and
effectiveness of the RNS System at qualified CECs by qualified neurologists, epileptologists,
and neurosurgeons trained on the RNS System.
5 years in the real-world environment to gather data on the long-term safety and
effectiveness of the RNS System at qualified CECs by qualified neurologists, epileptologists,
and neurosurgeons trained on the RNS System.
NeuroPace, Inc. is sponsoring a post-approval study (PAS) of the RNS System device. The RNS
System is the first FDA-approved closed loop responsive neurostimulator designed to reduce
the frequency of seizures in individuals with partial onset seizures.
The RNS System Epilepsy PAS is a 5 year, non-randomized, open-label, multi-center prospective
observational study. Data regarding safety and efficacy are collected at enrollment and
periodically throughout the 5-year study.
The study is designed to assess the long-term safety and effectiveness of the RNS System as
an adjunctive therapy in reducing the frequency of seizures in individuals 18 years of age or
older with partial onset seizures who have undergone diagnostic testing that localized no
more than 2 epileptogenic foci, are refractory to two or more antiepileptic medications, and
currently have frequent and disabling seizures (motor partial seizures, complex partial
seizures and/or secondarily generalized seizures).
Data from the RNS System Epilepsy PAS will be used to calculate long-term SAE rates, median
percent change in seizure frequency (from pre-implant retrospective data), as well as other
safety and effectiveness endpoints.
