Study Summary

The purpose of this clinical study is to investigate the safety, tolerability, and feasibility of Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) of the nucleus accumbens (NAc) and ventral internal capsule (VC) for participants with treatment refractory opioid use disorder (OUD) who have cognitive, behavioral, and functional disability.

Primary Outcome

Incidence of Study-Emergent Adverse Events. The safety/tolerability primary endpoint will be assessed comparing Grade 3 and 4 adverse events between the Active (DBS-ON) and Sham (DBS-OFF) arms throughout Phase IV (Outpatient Week 12). We will also categorize adverse events by organ system and assess relatedness to any aspect of this proof-of-concept study. Statistical tests will be performed at the request of the Data and Safety Monitoring Board (DSMB).
