Not a traditional drug phase: electroencephalography, electrocardiogram, pupillometry, evoked potentials, light administration for Refractory Epilepsy

Vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) is an added on top of your current treatment treatment for refractory epilepsy. Although widely used, there is still a substantial number of patients with insufficient response.

Official registry: https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT06304389 · Cliniques universitaires Saint-Luc- Université Catholique de Louvain · enrollment listed as 34

What this phase means

This study does not use the classic phase 1–4 drug ladder. It may be a device, a behavior program, a surgery timing study, or an early feasibility test.

Phase labels are FDA/ICH categories applied to the registry Phase field. They are not a finding that this study succeeded.

What the registry says happens

If you join, the listed intervention(s) are electroencephalography, electrocardiogram, pupillometry, evoked potentials, light administration, or transcutaneous vagus nerve stimulation, electroencephalography, pupillometry, electrocardiogram, light administration. The registry lists allocation as randomized. Vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) is an added on top of your current treatment treatment for refractory epilepsy.

They plan to enroll about 34 people at Woluwe-Saint-Lambert. Taking part typically means study visits and measurements plus check-ins.
