NCT ID NCT05103072
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested whether a software tool (Guide XT) can replace the long, exhausting process of choosing the best stimulation settings for Parkinson's patients with brain implants. Twenty-six patients took part. The goal was to see if the software was at least as good as the standard method for improving movement symptoms.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
directional deep brain stimulation leads
What this could lead to
If successful, this could make programming brain implants faster and less tiring for Parkinson's patients.
What could go wrong
This is a small, completed study with only 26 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. The software may not be better than the standard method.
