Summary

A Multi-Center, Controlled Study to Evaluate Use of CereGate Therapy to Reduce Freezing of Gait in Participants Diagnosed with Parkinson's Disease.

Plain Language Summary

Simplified for easier understanding

This study tests a therapy called CereGate to help people with Parkinson's disease who experience 'freezing of gait' — sudden episodes where their feet feel glued to the floor. The therapy works by adjusting settings on an already-implanted deep brain stimulation (DBS) device. **You may be eligible if...** - You have Parkinson's disease with an implanted deep brain stimulation (DBS) device (specifically a Boston Scientific Gevia™ or Genus™ R16 IPG) - You are being treated with carbidopa/levodopa and/or a dopamine agonist at the best doses your doctor has determined - Your DBS settings have already been optimized and show documented improvement in your motor symptoms **You may NOT be eligible if...** - You do not have a compatible Boston Scientific DBS implant - You are unable to understand study procedures or cannot provide written consent - You are unable to attend required study visits Talk to your doctor to see if this trial is right for you.

Interventions

DEVICECereGate Software; BSN cDBS Programmer; BSN Burst Programmer

CereGate's objective is to, with a single DBS system implanted in the standard STN location for PD: (i) deliver conventional tonic DBS stimulation of STN-to mitigate dopamine-responsive symptoms; and concurrently (ii) deliver bursting DBS-induced "cueing" stimulation-to mitigate FOG. The sole function of CereGate Software is to guide the clinician through a systematic investigation of the stimulation parameter space to thereby configure / tune CereGate Therapy for each participant. CereGate Software proposes parameters for the clinician to evaluate and assists in documenting the response. It does not send commands to, nor control the output of, the DBS System.
