NeuroPace is committed to continuing to improve the lives of people living with epilepsy.

See below for information on NeuroPace sponsored FDA-approved IDE clinical trials currently open to enrollment.

NAUTILUS Study

RNS System clinical study for adults and teens 12 years and older with idiopathic generalized epilepsy

CLOSED TO ENROLLMENT

Lennox-Gastaut Syndrome Study

RNS System clinical study for adults and teens 12 years and older with Lennox‑Gastaut Syndrome

CLOSED TO ENROLLMENT

RESPONSE Study

RNS System clinical study for teens 12 through 17 years of age with focal onset epilepsy

CLOSED TO ENROLLMENT

RNS System Pivotal Study of Responsive Bilateral Thalamic Stimulation for Idiopathic Generalized Seizures (NAUTILUS) Study

Age

12 or older

Gender

All

Epilepsy Type

Medically Refractory Idiopathic Generalized Epilepsy, Primary generalized seizures

ClinicalTrials.gov:

NCT05147571

Study Intent

The primary intent of the NAUTILUS Pivotal Study is to determine if the RNS System is safe and effective
as an additional therapy in individuals 12 years and older who have drug-resistant idiopathic
generalized epilepsy.

Study Indication for Use & Product Labeling

The RNS System is investigational for the Indications for Use below. The RNS Neurostimulator Model RNS-320 will be used in the NAUTILUS Study.

Clinicians should refer to the investigational protocol for additional product information specific to
the study.

Patients should contact their study physician for additional information specific to participation in
this study.

CAUTION–Investigational device. Limited by United States law to investigational use for the
following Indications for Use:

The RNS® System is intended for thalamic stimulation as an adjunctive therapy for the treatment of
primary generalized seizures in individuals 12 years of age or older who have drug-resistant
idiopathic generalized epilepsy.

RNS System Responsive Stimulation for Teens and Adults with Lennox-Gastaut Syndrome (LGS) Study

Age

12 and older

Gender

Syndrome)

ClinicalTrials.gov:

NCT05339126

Study Intent

The purpose of the RNS System Lennox-Gastaut Syndrome (LGS) study is to generate preliminary safety and effectiveness data for brain-responsive neurostimulation of thalamocortical networks as an adjunctive therapy in reducing the frequency of generalized seizures in individuals 12 years of age or older with LGS who are refractory to antiseizure medications.

Study Indication for Use & Product Labeling

The RNS System is investigational for the Indications for Use below. The RNS Neurostimulator Model RNS-320 will be used in the Lennox-Gastaut Syndrome Study.

Age

12 through 17

Gender

All

Epilepsy Type

Medically Refractory, Partial Onset Seizures

ClinicalTrials.gov:

NCT04839601

Study Intent

The primary intent of this pivotal study is to determine whether the RNS System is safe and effective as an adjunctive therapy in individuals ages 12 through 17 years who have drug-resistant focal epilepsy.

Study Indication for Use & Product Labeling

The RNS System is investigational for the Indications for Use below. The RNS Neurostimulator Model RNS-320 will be used in the RESPONSE study.

Clinicians should refer to the investigational protocol for additional product information specific to the study.

CAUTION—Investigational device. Limited by United States law to investigational use for the following Indications for Use:

The RNS System investigational intended use is as an adjunctive therapy in reducing the frequency of seizures in individuals 12 through 17 years of age 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).

  • Based on your answers, your patient might benefit from the RNS System.

    Get your profile and a list of questions to ask your doctor.

  • Unfortunately it appears your patient is not an appropriate candidate for the RNS® System at this time.

  • The RNS® System is intended for patients who have undergone diagnostic testing that localized no more than 2 epileptogenic foci.

    If your patient has not undergone diagnostic testing, search here to find a comprehensive epilepsy center that can evaluate your patient, including determining if the RNS System is right for them.
