Brain pacemaker trial aims to cut seizures in kids with severe epilepsy
NCT ID NCT06924086
First seen Jan 03, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether deep brain stimulation (DBS) can safely reduce seizures in children aged 5-14 with Lennox-Gastaut syndrome, a severe form of epilepsy. The trial uses a special device called Picostim to send electrical pulses to the brain. Researchers will track seizure frequency using caregiver diaries and EEG recordings. The goal is to improve seizure control, not to cure the condition.
