Proof of Concept Study on BP1.4979 Effect on Essential Tremor
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if drug BP1.4979 works to treat essential tremors in adults. It will also learn about the safety of drug BP1.4979. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does the drug BP1.4979 reduce tremors in individuals with essential tremor? Do participants …
Functional Brain Network Changes in Patients Undergoing Deep Brain Stimulation for Essential Tremor
The purpose of this study is to collect electrophysiological data related to functional brain network changes in patients undergoing deep brain stimulation for the treatment of essential tremor. Participants will either 1) have electroencephalography (EEG) scalp electrodes placed, or 2) remain seated with their head inside of a magnetoencephalography (MEG) …
The STEREO-DBS ET Study: 7-Tesla MRI Brain Network Analysis for Deep Brain Stimulation in Essential Tremor
Rationale: Deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the thalamus is an effective surgical treatment for the patients with advanced essential tremor, despite optimal pharmacological treatment. However, individual improvement after DBS remains variable and 20% of patients experience side effects. To date, DBS-electrode placement and settings in the highly connected thalamus are …
Dual Lead Thalamic Deep Brain Recording (DBR)-DBS Interface for Closed Loop Control of Severe Essential Tremor
This is a feasibility study based on physician-initiated Investigational Device Exemption (IDE) including intraoperative experiments and chronic testing of implanted dual thalamic DBS lead systems. This study will inform protocols for optimal use of implanted next-gen DBS systems for primarily tremor control in refractory essential tremor.If the approach appears to …
Penpulimab Plus Chemotherapy With/Without Anlotinib for Patients With Advanced Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma
Penpulimab plus chemotherapy with or without Anlotinib as first-line therapy for patients with advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (Answer): A randomized two-arm clinical study.
Directional Versus Nondirectional DBS for ET
This will be a single center (OHSU) proof of concept trial to demonstrate that directional deep brain stimulation (DBS) creates a larger therapeutic window for the treatment of essential tremor (ET), effectively treats ET, and minimizes effects on speech, gait and balance compared to nondirectional DBS.
Algorithms for Programming DBS Systems for ET
Deep brain stimulation (DBS) targeting the Vim thalamus (ventralis intermedius nucleus) is an FDA-approved neuromodulation therapy for treating postural and action tremor in individuals with essential tremor (ET). The success of this treatment, however, is highly dependent on the ability of clinicians to identify therapeutic stimulation settings through a laborious …
Elucidating the Temporality of Structural and Functional Connectivity Changes in Essential Tremor After Successful Deep Brain Stimulation to the Dentato-rubro-thalamic Tract
The purpose of this study is to elucidate the structural connectivity of the dentato-rubro-thalamic tract (DRTt) and to detect functional network changes due to DRTt stimulation
Analysis of Clinical Outcomes in Patients Undergoing Magnetic Resonance-Guided Focused Ultrasound for Medication-Refractory Tremor
The goal of this observational study is to evaluate the long-term efficacy and safety of MR-guided focused ultrasound (MRgFUS) thalamotomy in patients with medication-refractory essential tremor. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does MRgFUS thalamotomy provide sustained reduction in tremor severity over 3 years? What are the long-term …
Home Use Study of Targeted Mechanical Stimulation for Tremor Relief
Subjects will receive prototype devices to be used for participation. The study comprises three phases: Alpha phase: Two remote study visits and an in-home period to gather device usability data on the alpha system. The at home period for this phase will be 2 weeks. This phase will be used …
