Publication Rates and Characteristics of Clinical Trials in Deep Brain and Responsive Neurostimulation.
Introduction: Prompt dissemination of clinical trial results is essential for ensuring the safety and efficacy of intracranial neurostimulation treatments, including deep brain stimulation (DBS) and responsive neurostimulation (RNS). However, the frequency and completeness of results publication, and reasons for reporting delays, are unknown. Moreover, the patient populations, targeted anatomical locations, and stimulation parameters should be clearly reported for both reproducibility and to identify lacunae in trial design. Here, we examine DBS and RNS trials from 1997 to 2022, chart their characteristics, and examine rates and predictors of results reporting.
Methods: Trials were identified using ClinicalTrials.gov. Associated publications were identified using ClinicalTrials.gov and PubMed.gov. Pearson's χ2 tests were used to assess differences in trial characteristics between published and unpublished trials.
Results: Across 449 trials, representing a cumulative cohort of 42,769 patient interventions, there were 37 therapeutic indications and 44 stimulation targets. The most common indication and target were Parkinson's disease (40.55%) and the subthalamic nucleus (35.88%), respectively. Only 0.89% of trials were in pediatric patients (11.58% were mixed pediatric and adult). Explored targets represented 75% of potential basal ganglia targets but only 29% of potential thalamic targets. Allowing a 1-year grace period after trial completion, 34/169 (20.12%) had results reported on ClinicalTrials.gov, and 107/169 (63.31%) were published. ∼80% of published trials included details about stimulation parameters used. Published and unpublished trials did not significantly differ by trial characteristics.
Conclusion: We highlight key knowledge and performance gaps in DBS and RNS trial research. Over one-third of trials remain unpublished >1 year after completion; pediatric trials are scarce; most of the thalamus remains unexplored; about one-in-five trials fail to report stimulation parameters; and movement disorders comprise the most studied indications.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
