The MS pilot study will assess the safety and investigate the remyelinating effects of the SetPoint System (study device) in adult patients diagnosed with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS). The SetPoint System is intended for adjunctive use with standard of care therapy for RRMS. The study device contains a miniaturized stimulator (implant) that is surgically placed under general anesthesia on the vagus nerve through a small incision on the left side of the neck (implant procedure). The study will enroll up to 60 participants at up to 10 sites. All eligible participants will undergo the implant procedure. Two-thirds of the participants will receive active stimulation (treatment) and the one-third will receive non-active stimulation (control). Following treatment evaluations at Week 48, there will be a one-way crossover of control subjects to active stimulation and a 48-week open-label follow-up with all subjects (treatment and control) receiving active stimulation to evaluate long-term safety.
The MS pilot study is a 2:1 randomized, double-blind, sham-controlled, multi-center pivotal study enrolling up to 60 subjects at up to 10 study centers across the U.S. The study will assess the safety and investigate the remyelinating effects of the SetPoint System (study device) in adult patients diagnosed with relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis (RRMS). The SetPoint System is intended for adjunctive use with standard of care therapy for RRMS. The study device contains a miniaturized stimulator (implant) that is surgically implanted inside the left side of the neck on the vagus nerve (impl…
Inclusion Criteria: * Age 22-60 years at informed consent. * Diagnosis of RRMS by revised 2017 McDonald criteria. * MS disease duration does not exceed 15 years from date of diagnosis at the time of informed consent * Latency delay \>116 milliseconds on baseline full-field transient pattern reversal visual evoked potential (VEP) in at least one eye. Both eyes can be included if they meet all inclusion criteria.Patients who do not meet the absolute P100 latency threshold of 116 ms in either eye will qualify if they have an inter-eye difference in P100 latency of \>6 ms * Peri-papillary retinal…
The SetPoint System (study device)contains a miniaturized stimulator (implant) that is surgically implanted inside the left side of the neck on the vagus nerve (implant procedure). All eligible subjects will undergo the surgery under general anesthesia in outpatient settings.
All subjects will continue treatment with standard of care disease-modifying therapies for the duration of the study.
Active stimulation for 1 minute once per day
Non-active stimulation for 1 minute once per day
