Indications for Use

The Activa®, Percept™ and SenSight™ Deep Brain Stimulation Therapy System is indicated for bilateral stimulation of the internal globus pallidus (GPi) or the subthalamic nucleus (STN) using Medtronic DBS Therapy for Parkinson's Disease is indicated for adjunctive therapy in reducing some of the symptoms in individuals with levodopa-responsive Parkinson's disease of at least 4 years' duration that are not adequately controlled with medication, including motor complications of recent onset (from 4 months to 3 years) or motor complications of longer-standing duration.

Device Story

System uses implantable neurostimulator (INS) to deliver electrical stimulation to brain targets (STN or GPi) for Parkinson's disease. New adaptive DBS (aDBS) feature automatically adjusts stimulation amplitude within clinician-defined limits based on local field potentials (LFPs) in the Alpha-Beta band (8–30 Hz). Input: LFP signals sensed via DBS leads. Processing: Algorithm (Single or Dual Threshold mode) compares LFP power to thresholds; adjusts stimulation amplitude accordingly. Output: Adjusted electrical stimulation. Used in clinic/home; operated by clinician (programming) and patient (pause/monitor). Benefits: Potential for individualized therapy and reduced stimulation energy; allows patient to pause adaptive therapy if needed. Affects clinical decision-making by providing automated, state-dependent stimulation adjustments.

Clinical Evidence

Prospective, multicenter, single-arm, randomized crossover trial (ADAPT-PD, N=85). Evaluated aDBS (Single/Dual Threshold) vs. cDBS. Primary endpoint: proportion of subjects with 'On' time without troublesome dyskinesia exceeding a patient-specific threshold (cDBS baseline minus 2 hours). Success rates: 78.9% (Single Threshold) and 91.0% (Dual Threshold). Secondary endpoints included TEED reduction. Safety profile consistent with previous DBS studies; no device-related infections or suicides reported.

Technological Characteristics

Implantable neurostimulation system (INS, leads, extensions). Sensing principle: LFP detection (Alpha-Beta band 8-30 Hz). Energy source: Battery (rechargeable/non-rechargeable). Connectivity: Clinician/Patient programmers. Software: Embedded firmware (aDBS feature enabled via software update). Sterilization: Standard for implanted components.

Indications for Use

Indicated for adjunctive therapy in individuals with levodopa-responsive Parkinson's disease (PD) of at least 4 years' duration, not adequately controlled by medication, including motor complications of recent onset (4 months to 3 years) or longer-standing duration. Contraindicated for patients requiring diathermy, certain MRI procedures, those unable to operate patient devices, or those requiring TMS.

INDICATIONS FOR USE The Activa®, Percept™ and SenSight™ Deep Brain Stimulation Therapy System is indicated for bilateral stimulation of the internal globus pallidus (GPi) or the subthalamic nucleus (STN) using Medtronic DBS Therapy for Parkinson's Disease is indicated for adjunctive therapy in reducing some of the symptoms in individuals with levodopa-responsive Parkinson's disease of at least 4 years' duration that are not adequately controlled with medication, including motor complications of recent onset (from 4 months to 3 years) or motor complications of longer-standing duration. ### III. CONTRAINDICATIONS General DBS contraindications Implantation of a deep brain stimulation (DBS) system is contraindicated for these situations: Diathermy - Patients exposed to diathermy. Do not use shortwave diathermy, microwave diathermy or therapeutic ultrasound diathermy (all now referred to as diathermy) on patients implanted with a neurostimulation system. Energy from diathermy can be transferred through the implanted system and can cause tissue damage at the location of the implanted electrodes, resulting in severe injury or death. Diathermy can also damage the neurostimulation system components, resulting in loss of therapy and requiring additional surgery for system explantation and replacement. Advise your patient to inform all their health care professionals that they should not be exposed to diathermy treatment. PMA P960009/S478: FDA Summary of Safety and Effectiveness Data Page 2 of 59 {2} Injury to the patient or damage to the device can occur during diathermy treatment when: - the neurostimulation system is turned on or off. - diathermy is used anywhere on the body—not just at the location of the neurostimulation system. - diathermy delivers heat or no heat. - any component of the neurostimulation system (lead, extension, neurostimulator) remains in the body. Certain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) procedures - Use of a full body transmit radio frequency (RF) coil, a receive-only head coil, or a head transmit coil that extends over the chest area is contraindicated for patients with the following implanted DBS systems or system components: - Activa SC Model 37602 Neurostimulator - Model 64001 and Model 64002 pocket adaptors implanted with any DBS system Tissue lesions from component heating, especially at the lead electrodes, resulting in serious and permanent injury including coma, paralysis, or death, can occur if a contraindicated MRI scan is performed on a patient with any of these DBS systems. Refer to the MRI guidelines for Medtronic deep brain stimulation systems Instructions for use manual associated with this product for comprehensive safety information and instructions. Unable to operate patient devices - Patients who are unable, or do not have the necessary assistance, to properly operate the patient control device (e.g., patient programmer, therapy access controller) or a charging system (applicable to rechargeable DBS Systems only). Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) - Contraindicated for use in patients with an implanted DBS System. #### IV. WARNINGS AND PRECAUTIONS The warnings and precautions can be found in the Medtronic DBS System for PD labeling. #### V. DEVICE DESCRIPTION Medtronic DBS therapy uses an implantable multi-programmable neurostimulation system to deliver electrical stimulation to selected areas of the brain. The major components of the DBS systems include: - Leads and Extensions – Conducts electrical stimulation to the intended target as part of a DBS system. The extension connects the lead to the neurostimulator. In PMA P960009/S478: FDA Summary of Safety and Effectiveness Data Page 3 of 59 {3} some cases, a pocket adaptor is also used to connect the extension to the neurostimulator. - Implantable Neurostimulator (INS) – Generates electrical current that is conducted through DBS extensions and leads to the distal lead electrodes. - Burr Hole Device – Used to anchor the lead to the skull. - Clinician Programmer – Used by the clinician to configure and maintain the patient’s therapy through adjustment of the available therapy parameters (amplitude, rate, pulse width, cycling, electrode configuration, etc.) and the creation of programs which consist of a specific set of values for each of the therapy parameters. - Patient Programmer – Used by the patient to maintain their therapy within parameters configured by the clinician. - Patient Recharger – Used by the patient to charge the battery of a rechargeable INS. A plug-in charger recharges the patient recharger. ![img-0.jpeg](img-0.jpeg) Figure 1: Representation of a Bilateral DBS System The following Medtronic DBS system components that can be used with the aDBS software feature have been approved by FDA through the original submission and supplements to PMA P960009.

This software update introduces the aDBS feature to the FDA approved Percept™ system of deep brain stimulation (DBS) devices (approved by FDA in P960009/S361 (Percept PC) and P960009/S438 (Percept RC). The aDBS feature was embedded (and disabled) as part of the approved Percept INS systems. In order to launch aDBS, the existing aDBS firmware needs to be enabled and no physical changes to the Percept INSs are required. Therefore, when the aDBS feature is enabled in a geography, it can be enabled in previously implanted Percept INSs as well as new Percept INSs. - Model A620 Patient Programmer Application (PPA) (Versions 2.0 and 3.0) The Model A620 PPA is software used by patients to interrogate and adjust stimulation settings of the Medtronic DBS implantable neurostimulators within clinician determined limits. The Model A620 PPA will display aDBS screens once the patient programmer connects with an INS that has aDBS enabled. An important feature of the PPA software when applying aDBS as a programming option is that the Model A620 PPA can be used by patients to “pause” their aDBS therapy. Pausing Adaptive Therapy is not the same as turning stimulation off. When Adaptive Therapy is paused therapy reverts to a fixed cDBS level programmed by the clinician. No updates to the Model A620 PPA are in scope of this submission as the aDBS software was previously developed (and disabled) as part of the Percept PC and Percept RC INS systems. Therefore, the existing aDBS software will simply be enabled in the Model A620 PPA. Additionally, both Model A620 PPA version 2.0 and version 3.0 support the aDBS feature in the same way. Model A620 PPA version 2.0 supports the aDBS feature on Percept PC devices, and Model A620 PPA version 3.0 supports the aDBS feature on both Percept PC and Percept RC INS devices. In this way, existing patients who have a Percept PC INS and a patient programmer with Model A620 version 2.0 do not need to have updated or replacement patient programmers to have access to the aDBS feature. Similarly, patients who have a Percept PC or RC INS and a patient programmer with Model A620 version 3.0 do not need to have updated or replacement patient programmers to have access to the aDBS feature. ### aDBS Software Feature Description Commercially approved DBS is programmed to run continuously (cDBS) at specified programming parameters. The adaptive DBS (aDBS) algorithm individualizes DBS therapy by adjusting stimulation level based on local field potentials (LFPs) which represent population-level neuronal oscillations surrounding the DBS electrode. The aDBS feature automatically adjusts stimulation amplitude, within clinician-defined limits, based on changes in a patient’s brain state measured using Alpha-Beta LFPs (8–30 Hz) as PMA P960009/S478: FDA Summary of Safety and Effectiveness Data Page 6 of 59 {6} a signal of interest (SOI). The aDBS feature can be enabled in one of two modes, Single Threshold Mode or Dual Threshold Mode, as described below. - aDBS Single Threshold Mode Single threshold mode includes a single control threshold for the LFP SOI and aDBS makes changes to the stimulation amplitude based on the measured LFP and whether it is above or below the threshold. In this scheme, when the LFP SOI is above the threshold, then stimulation is incremented and when the LFP SOI is below the threshold, the stimulation is decremented. The maximum stimulation limits are set by the physician on an individual patient basis. This mode has shorter default stimulation ramp up and ramp down durations than dual mode. Figure 2 illustrates this aDBS mode. ![img-1.jpeg](img-1.jpeg) Figure 2: Single Threshold aDBS Mode - aDBS Dual Threshold Mode Dual threshold mode includes both an upper and lower control threshold for the LFP SOI and aDBS makes changes to the stimulation amplitude to attempt to maintain the LFP SOI between the two thresholds. In this scheme, when the LFP SOI is “high”, then stimulation is increased, whereas when the LFP SOI is “low” stimulation is decreased to control the LFP SOI. When the patient tailored LFP Alpha-Beta power SOI remains between the upper and lower thresholds, stimulation amplitude is held constant. When the Alpha-Beta power SOI exceeds the upper threshold, stimulation increments. When the Alpha-Beta power SOI dips below the lower threshold, stimulation decrements. The limits are set by the physician on an individual patient basis. Figure 3 illustrates this aDBS mode. PMA P960009/S478: FDA Summary of Safety and Effectiveness Data Page 7 of 59 {7} ![img-2.jpeg](img-2.jpeg) Figure 3: Dual Threshold aDBS Mode Each mode has a set of default settings, some of which the clinician will have the ability to adjust. With both aDBS modes, the clinician is required to configure the upper and lower stimulation amplitude limits based on safe levels for each patient. Table 2 below lists the key configurable parameters in aDBS. Table 2: Key aDBS Configurable Parameters | Configurable Parameter | Selection Range | | --- | --- | | Sensing Band | 8-30 Hz | | Threshold Mode | Dual or Single Threshold | | Lower LFP Threshold | 0.55-400μVrms Note: in Single Threshold Mode, Lower = Upper LFP Threshold | | Upper LFP Threshold | 0.55-400μVrms Note: in Single Threshold Mode, Lower = Upper LFP Threshold | | Lower Stimulation Limit | 0-25.5 mA | | Upper Stimulation Limit | 0-25.5 mA | | Upper Threshold Onset Duration | Dual Threshold - 0 to 6 min Single Threshold - 0 to 30 seconds | | Lower Threshold Onset Duration | Dual Threshold - 0 to 6 min Single Threshold - 0 to 30 seconds | | Stimulation Ramp Up Duration | 250ms-30 minutes | | Stimulation Ramp Down Duration | 250ms-30 minutes | PMA P960009/S478: FDA Summary of Safety and Effectiveness Data Page 8 of 59 {8} # VI. ALTERNATIVE PRACTICES AND PROCEDURES Several medical and surgical alternatives are available for the symptomatic treatment of Parkinson's disease (PD). The gold standard medical therapy for PD is levodopa combined with a peripheral decarboxylase inhibitor, such as carbidopa. Other medications may be used as an adjunct to levodopa including dopamine agonists, monoamine oxidase-B inhibitors, catechol-O methyltransferase inhibitors, apomorphine, amantadine, etc. Most patients respond to levodopa but "off" periods (increased symptoms when the medication dose wears off) can occur within 2 years of starting levodopa treatment. About 40% of patients experience dyskinesias after 4 to 6 years of levodopa treatment.¹ In patients who no longer respond to medications or experience disabling motor complications, surgical treatments may offer benefit. Surgical treatments can involve destruction of designated brain targets (either radiofrequency or radiosurgery pallidotomy or thalamotomy) which are typically performed unilaterally due to the potential for serious adverse events with bilateral lesion procedures.² Magnetic resonance-guided focused ultrasound (MRgFUS) for thalamotomy in tremor-dominant PD is another therapeutic option and does not require a craniotomy and penetration of the brain.³ Whether performed using radiofrequency, gamma knife or MRgFUS, no lesion procedures can safely address the bilateral nature of Parkinson's Disease progression, and therefore they cannot be considered state-of-the-art treatment for the wider PD population. Furthermore, most unilateral procedures remain classified in guidelines as having insufficient evidence and being investigational for several key symptoms of PD, or having inferior benefit- risk ratios to DBS.⁴ DBS of the subthalamic nucleus (STN) or internal globus pallidus (GPi) is an alternative to lesioning procedures. DBS is the most common surgical treatment for PD and may reduce PD symptoms of bradykinesia, rigidity and tremor in patients who no longer have a predictable response to medication or who have dyskinesias resulting from the medication.⁴ Algorithms for the treatment of motor problems in Parkinson's disease using device-aided therapies have been proposed. For example, Dietrichs and Odin⁵ developed a strategy for how best to treat PD patients at different stages of disease progression, as shown in Figure 4. The algorithm was based on recommendations from the Scandinavian countries and Germany, and, proposes several device-aided treatment options be used for later-stage treatment, including DBS, continuous subcutaneous infusion of apomorphine (CSAI)⁶, or L-dopa-carbidopa intestinal gel (LCIG), which delivers the drug by portable pump through a percutaneous endoscopic gastrojejunostomy (PEG-J) tube, bypassing the stomach to eliminate variability associated with gastric emptying.⁷ Relative to DBS, the other two alternative therapies have accumulated less clinical evidence supporting their use.⁴,⁷ PMA P960009/S478: FDA Summary of Safety and Effectiveness Data Page 9 of 59 {9} ![img-3.jpeg](img-3.jpeg) Figure 4: Algorithm for Medical Treatment of PD Each alternative has its own advantages and disadvantages. A patient should fully discuss these alternatives with his/her physician to select the method that best meets expectations and lifestyle. ### VII.

PMA P960009/S478: FDA Summary of Safety and Effectiveness Data Page 12 of 59 {12} ## **IX. SUMMARY OF NON-CLINICAL STUDIES** All components of the Medtronic DBS System for Parkinson's Disease are commercially approved as part of PMA P960009 and PMA Supplements. Pre-clinical studies (bench and animal) previously submitted to FDA in the Original PMA application (P960009) and supplements continue to support the safety of the commercially available Medtronic DBS System for Parkinson's Disease. The non-clinical testing discussed below has been provided to support the safety and effectiveness of the aDBS software feature of the device as an additional programming option for the therapy. Testing in this submission was limited to those associated with the addition of the aDBS feature. ### **A. Laboratory Studies** N/A ### **B. Animal Studies** N/A ### **C. Additional Studies** - **Software** To verify and validate changes associated with aDBS design verification and validation testing pertaining to aspects of the Model A610 CPA (Version 5.0) and Model A620 PPA (Version 3.0) impacted by the software changes. Acceptable documentation was provided in accordance with the requirements of the following FDA guidance documents: - "Content of Premarket Submissions for Device Software Functions" (June 14, 2023) - "Off-The-Shelf Software Use in Medical Devices" (September 9, 1999) - "General Principles of Software Validation; Final Guidance for Industry and FDA Staff" (January 11, 2002) - "Cybersecurity for Networked Medical Devices Containing Off-the-Shelf (OTS) Software" (January 14, 2005) - **Firmware: Percept PC INS and Percept RC INS** The aDBS feature was developed as part of the Model B35200 Percept PC INS and Model B35300 Percept RC INS Firmware systems. However, the feature was disabled and was not in scope of the previously approved submissions. In order to launch aDBS, the existing aDBS firmware simply needs to be enabled and no firmware changes or physical changes to the Percept INSs are required. There are no physical changes to the Percept PC INS in scope of this submission however, the new INS firmware update capability that is in the scope of this submission will deploy the latest approved firmware to Percept PC devices already in the field. The firmware version to be deployed with Model A610 CPA version 5.0 is PMA P960009/S478: FDA Summary of Safety and Effectiveness Data Page 13 of 59 {13} identical to the version approved in P960009/S445, therefore all testing provided in that submission remains valid. An updated version of firmware is not being deployed to Percept RC INSs because the latest approved version of firmware is currently used in all fielded devices. The Percept RC INS firmware remains identical to the version approved in P960009/S438. - Regression Testing System end-to-end functionality of the Model A610 CPA (Version 5.0) and Model A620 PPA (Version 3.0) was demonstrated successfully via regression testing with unchanged released devices (Percept PC INS and Percept RC INS). The system operated as expected with these devices. - Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) New to this submission is the enabling of the aDBS feature in both Model B35200 Percept PC and Model B35300 Percept RC devices. aDBS is considered essential performance, and behavior of the system while aDBS is operating could potentially pose a patient safety risk if not properly mitigated. Medtronic has performed a risk assessment on the aDBS feature consistent with Section IV.B of the FDA guidance document, “Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) of Medical Devices” (June 2022). This risk assessment addressed the risks associated with the inability to properly detect LFP due to EMI disturbances and demonstrated through testing that the risks are adequately mitigated. It’s important to note that aDBS was not studied in the ADAPT-PD Trial with bilaterally implanted neurostimulators, and only subjects with single INS devices were eligible for the study. In the case that patients do have bilaterally implanted neurostimulators, a Percept device could sense the stimulation present from the opposite neurostimulator and adjust stimulation in response to that signal, rather than the desired response to the LFP SOI. Because of this interaction, the labeling instructs clinicians not to use aDBS with more than one implanted neurostimulator. # X. SUMMARY OF PRIMARY CLINICAL STUDY With the introduction of the aDBS feature, there are no modifications to the existing PD indications, the contraindications, the PD patient population, the disease state, the DBS surgical procedure, the underlying medical condition, the symptoms of PD that are already indicated, or the brain targets already approved for DBS therapy for PD. The intended purpose of the aDBS feature is to be an optional tool for the clinician to use to automatically increment and decrement stimulation amplitude within the clinician-specified range based on the PD patient’s LFPs (Alpha-Beta). DBS PD therapy itself is not changing with the aDBS feature and the clinical data provided in previous submissions under P960009 in support of the PD indications with cDBS is still applicable in support of the Percept system with aDBS. PMA P960009/S478: FDA Summary of Safety and Effectiveness Data Page 14 of 59 {14} The applicant performed a clinical study to establish a reasonable assurance of safety and effectiveness of aDBS as a programming option for adjunctive therapy in reducing some of the symptoms in individuals with levodopa-responsive Parkinson's disease of at least 4 years' duration that are not adequately controlled with medication, including motor complications of recent onset (from 4 months to 3 years) or motor complications of longer-standing duration in the ADAPT-PD Trial under IDE # G200179. The ADAPT-PD Trial evaluated the safety and effectiveness of aDBS in PD subjects with stable cDBS therapy. The study was conducted in 10 centers: 7 centers in the US, and one center each in Canada, the Netherlands, and France. Data from this clinical study were the basis for the PMA approval decision for the programming option of the aDBS. A summary of the clinical study is presented below. Refer to the Limitations of Study (**Section XIV.E**) for a discussion of the limitations associated with the study. ### A. Study Design Patients were treated between December 14, 2020, and March 22, 2023. The database for this Panel Track Supplement reflected data collected through December 15, 2023, and a total of 85 subjects were enrolled in the ADAPT-PD Trial (68 from the Primary Cohort and 17 from Directional Stimulation Cohort). The study was conducted in 10 centers: 7 centers in the US, and one center each in Canada, the Netherlands, and France. The study enrolled 63 (74.1%) subjects in US, 10 (11.8%) in the Netherlands, 7 (8.2%) in Canada, and 5 (5.9%) in France. In total, this study enrolled 22 (25.9%) subjects outside the US. The study was a prospective, multicenter, single-arm, aDBS treatment mode blind, randomized crossover trial in subjects with Parkinson's Disease and DBS leads implanted either in the internal globus pallidus (GPi) or the subthalamic nucleus (STN) connected to a Medtronic Percept PC implantable neurostimulator capable of sensing LFPs. The ADAPT-PD trial assessed both Single and Dual Threshold aDBS modes (algorithms). In cases where only one hemisphere had an Alpha-Beta Signal which met the inclusion criteria the following configurations were used to set up aDBS: If only one hemisphere has Alpha-Beta signal $\geq 1.2\mu V_p$ when setting up the Dual Threshold mode, *the clinician configured adaptive therapy in both hemispheres, using sensing from the hemisphere with Alpha-Beta signal $\geq 1.2\mu V_p$*. PMA P960009/S478: FDA Summary of Safety and Effectiveness Data Page 15 of 59 {15} • Single Threshold (ST) Mode: If only one hemisphere has Alpha-Beta signal ≥1.2μVp when setting up Single Threshold mode, the clinician configured adaptive therapy in only that hemisphere with Alpha-Beta signal ≥1.2μVp. cDBS was set up in the hemisphere with the Alpha-Beta signal <1.2μVp. Subjects were assessed in the cDBS Baseline at enrollment, then entered the aDBS Adjustment Phase, followed by the aDBS Evaluation Phase in which subjects were randomized to 30 days of one mode (Single or Dual Threshold aDBS), then crossed over to 30 days of the other mode, if tolerated. A Long-Term Follow Up Phase and Extended Access Phase were also included in the study. See Figure 5. The study consisted of two cohorts: - Primary Cohort (PC): All subjects configured to ring mode monopolar or dual monopolar stimulation using contacts 1 and/or 2 (9 and/or 10) on at least one side. - Directional Stimulation Cohort (DS): All subjects configured to directional monopolar or dual monopolar stimulation using contacts 1 and/or 2 (9 and/or 10). Each cohort followed the same study design. Subjects received PD medications during the study and were expected to remain on stable medications through the aDBS Evaluation Phase. During the Baseline Phase subjects were aware they were receiving cDBS and during the aDBS Setup and Adjustment Phase and aDBS Evaluation Phase subjects were aware that they were receiving either Single- or Dual-Threshold aDBS. Thus, subjects were aware of whether they were receiving an investigational or control treatment throughout the study. However, from the aDBS Setup and Adjustment Phase to the end of the aDBS Evaluation Phase, subjects were blinded to which aDBS mode they were receiving (Single-Threshold aDBS or Dual-Threshold aDBS). # 1. Clinical Inclusion and Exclusion Criteria Enrollment in the ADAPT-PD Trial was limited to patients who met the following inclusion criteria: - Idiopathic PD - Implanted with Percept PC (Model B35200) and Medtronic DBS leads (Model 3387, 3389, B33005 or B33015) and extensions (Model 37085, 37086 or B34000) for directional cohort: Subject is implanted with Percept PC (Model B35200) and Medtronic SenSight DBS leads (Model B33005 or B33015) and extensions (Model B34000), bilaterally in the same target (physician confirmed), STN or GPi PMA P960009/S478: FDA Summary of Safety and Effectiveness Data Page 16 of 59 {16} - In the opinion of the investigator, the subject responds to DBS therapy. - Based on the opinion of the investigator, the subject's cDBS parameters and PD medications were stable and expected to remain stable from enrollment through the end of the aDBS Evaluation phase - Configured to ring mode monopolar or dual monopolar stimulation using contacts 1 and/or 2 (9 and/or 10) on at least one side or, for subjects in the Directional Stimulation cohort, configured to directional monopolar or dual monopolar stimulation using contacts 1 and/or 2 (9 and/or 10). - Willing and able to attend all study-required visits and complete the study procedures (e.g. 1-month recall questionnaires, MDS-UPDRS III) - Ability to understand and provide written informed consent for participation in the study prior to the study-related procedures being conducted. - Male or non-pregnant female. If female of child-bearing potential, and if sexually active, must be using, or agree to use, a medically acceptable method of birth control as confirmed by the investigator. - For subjects with the SenSight leads: Subject was configured to the following stimulation rates: 55, 85, 110, 125, 145, 165 or 180 Hz (as required for sensing/aDBS) LFP Screening Criteria (start of cDBS Baseline visit): Subject had Alpha - Beta band (8-30 Hz) amplitude ≥ 1.2 μVp detected on either left and/or right DBS leads on sensing channels 0-2, 0-3, or 1-3; 8-10, 8-11, or 9-11. Patients were not permitted to enroll in the ADAPT-PD Trial if they met any of the following exclusion criteria: - Subject and/or caregiver were unable to utilize the patient programmer. - More than one lead in each hemisphere of the brain - Cortical leads or additional unapproved hardware implanted in the brain. - More than one INS - At enrollment, the subject's INS had a predicted battery life of <1 year. - Beck Depression Inventory II (BDI-II) > 25 - Required diathermy, transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS), or electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) - Metallic implant in the head, (e.g., aneurysm clip, cochlear implant) - Had, or planned to obtain, an implanted electrical stimulation medical device anywhere in the body (e.g., cardiac pacemaker, defibrillator, spinal cord stimulator) - Had, or planned to obtain, an implanted medication pump for the treatment of Parkinson's disease (e.g., DUOPATM infusion pump) and/or portable infusion pump. - Based on the opinion of the investigator, the subject had an abnormal neurological examination that would preclude them from study participation PMA P960009/S478: FDA Summary of Safety and Effectiveness Data Page 17 of 59 {17} - Breastfeeding - Under the age of 18 years - Currently enrolled in or planned to enroll in any concurrent drug and/or device study that may confound the results of this study as determined by the Medtronic study team. - Unable to use or tolerate wearable watch. - Signal artifact on all 6 aDBS sense pathways (3 each on both DBS leads) which preclude the clinician from setting thresholds. # 2. Follow-up Schedule The study consisted of four phases following enrollment: - The cDBS Baseline Phase (approximately 1 month) included LFP Screening (to ensure adequate LFPs per Inclusion Criteria above), Baseline cDBS data collection, and Off stimulation assessments. - Subjects then entered the aDBS Setup and Adjustment Phase (up to 2 months) which included an aDBS Setup visit and additional optional visits during an aDBS Adjustment period. The purpose of the aDBS Adjustment Phase is to optimize aDBS with a combination of in-clinic and at-home use in which the clinician assesses each participant's response to aDBS while adjusting and optimizing stimulation amplitude ramping and limits and the LFP thresholds during unscheduled clinical visits. - If, at the Setup visit, one aDBS mode cannot be set up, the subject should continue with the study using only the mode that can be set up and the subject will not be randomized. For modes that were setup, clinician, and participant satisfaction with each setup aDBS mode are assessed at the completion of the aDBS Adjustment period, and none, one or both modes are determined to be acceptable as compared to cDBS using a modified Global Impression of Change (GIC) score of ≤8 as a threshold for moving on to the Randomization and/or Evaluation Phase. Patients were excluded from the primary analysis set for any aDBS modes which they found unacceptable (GIC score > 8). - The aDBS Evaluation Phase (approximately 2 months) included one-month treatment periods in each acceptable aDBS mode (Dual Threshold and/or Single Threshold) with aDBS evaluation visits at the end of each period. For subjects for whom both aDBS modes were acceptable, single- and dual-threshold aDBS mode evaluation periods were assigned in sequence via randomized crossover. Subjects for whom only one aDBS mode was acceptable underwent a single treatment period with the acceptable mode during the aDBS Evaluation Phase. - The Long-Term Follow Up Phase (approximately 10 months) included four scheduled visits in the preferred aDBS mode. PMA P960009/S478: FDA Summary of Safety and Effectiveness Data Page 18 of 59 {18} An Extended Access Phase was optional and included additional visits in the preferred aDBS mode every 6 months until commercial approval of aDBS. Figure 5 below depicts the study timeline. ![img-4.jpeg](img-4.jpeg) Figure 5: Study Timeline ### 3. Clinical Endpoints #### Primary Safety Endpoints With regards to safety, the following were characterized: - Stimulation-related adverse events during the aDBS Evaluation and the cDBS Baseline Phases. - Serious adverse events, adverse events and device deficiencies throughout the study. #### Primary Effectiveness Endpoint The study contains two primary endpoints, one for each aDBS mode. For each aDBS mode, the primary endpoint is a binary success/failure endpoint derived from a comparison of the subjects “On” time without troublesome dyskinesia (based on PD Home Diary) during the cDBS baseline phase and the aDBS evaluation phase applicable to that aDBS mode. For each aDBS mode, a subject was considered a primary endpoint “success” when their daily average hours of “On” time without troublesome dyskinesia (based on the Parkinson’s Disease Home Diary) during that mode’s aDBS Evaluation Period exceeds a patient-specific threshold. The patient-specific success threshold for these binary success/failure endpoints was revised post-hoc, from cDBS Baseline average “On” time without PMA P960009/S478: FDA Summary of Safety and Effectiveness Data Page 19 of 59 {19} troublesome dyskinesia minus 1 standard deviation to cDBS Baseline average “On” time without troublesome dyskinesia minus 2 hours per day. The change was made due to potential for type-I error inflation associated with formal statistical comparisons of the success rate derived from these endpoints (as they were originally defined) with a 50% performance goal. See Section: Primary Effectiveness Analysis below for more details. The revised success threshold is more conservative (requires more aDBS mode average “On” time without troublesome dyskinesia) than the original, and ameliorates previous type-I error concerns, but the revision precludes formal, confirmatory statistical inference since hypothesis tests are no longer fully prospective. The primary effectiveness endpoint is based on Parkinson’s Disease Home Diary, collected over at least three consecutive days, anytime during the cDBS baseline phase (subjects should be on stable cDBS stimulation from enrollment through the end of this period) and within 14 days of the aDBS Evaluation visit(s). The Parkinson’s Disease Home Diary is a standard home diary to assess functional status in patients with PD. In 30-minute intervals, patients record whether they were in the “On” condition, with or without dyskinesia, “Off” condition, or asleep. In the On condition with dyskinesia, patients record whether they were On with troublesome or non-troublesome dyskinesia. For the purposes of the PD home diary, at least 3 consecutive days means at least 3 consecutive 24-hour periods. During the aDBS Evaluation Phase, if the diary is collected more than 14 days prior to the visit, the diary may be used for analysis if there is no change in aDBS stimulation settings. Complete diary periods are defined as any diary period where at least 21 hours (defined as 42 30-minute records) of diary were completed during the 24-hour period, and only complete periods will be used for analysis. If the diary is collected for more than 3 complete periods, up to 7 which are closest to the visit will be used for the analysis, while if a subject has zero complete periods, their diary will be considered missing. Diaries with at least 1 complete period available will be used for analysis. Data from non-contiguous complete periods may also be used in the analysis. ### Secondary Effectiveness Endpoint The secondary endpoint was to demonstrate decreased total electrical energy delivered (TEED) during the aDBS Evaluation Phase as compared with continuous DBS (cDBS). TEED was defined as the total energy delivered by an electrical system through the DBS leads over an arbitrary period of time. TEED was determined by the stimulation parameters (e.g., pulse width, frequency, amplitude) and the measured impedance. The calculation of TEED when using constant voltage is: $$\text{TEED} = (\text{Voltage}^2 * \text{Frequency} * \text{Pulse width}) / \text{Impedance}$$ The calculation of TEED when using constant current is: PMA P960009/S478: FDA Summary of Safety and Effectiveness Data Page 20 of 59 {20} TEED = Current² * Frequency * Pulse width * Impedance The Total TEED for each mode is calculated as a sum of the energy use in the left and right leads. There will be one value per patient for each mode for which they were evaluated (cDBS, aDBS Dual Threshold, aDBS Single Threshold). Two secondary endpoints, reduction in TEED associated with each applicable aDBS mode, is then calculated for each patient as the Total TEED for that aDBS mode minus the Total TEED during cDBS baseline. Additional Assessments To characterize aDBS during the Evaluation Phase as compared to cDBS (Primary Cohort). Additional objectives will be characterized for the CC unless otherwise specified: - Voice Handicap Index (VHI): “best” and “worst” conditions - Movement Disorder Society Unified Parkinson’s Disease Rating Scale (MDS-UPDRS) Part III subscore (On stim/On med) of tremor, rigidity, and bradykinesia questions where a side can be determined: 3.3 b, c, d, e (rigidity), 3.4 a, b (finger taps/bradykinesia), 3.15 a, b (postural tremor of hands), 3.16 a, b (kinetic tremor of hands), and 3.17 a, b, c, d (rest tremor amplitude) - MDS-UPDRS III (On stim/On med) - MDS-UPDRS II: “best” and “worst” conditions - MDS-UPDRS III speech question (On stim/On med) q 3.1 - MDS-UPDRS IV - European Quality of Life - 5 dimensions (EQ-5D-5L) - Parkinson’s Disease Sleep Score 2 (PDSS-2) - Data collected from wearable (for example: % of wear time tremor was detected, Dyskinesia Score [DKS], Bradykinesia Score [BKS], Fluctuation and Dyskinesia Score [FDS]) - Parkinson’s Disease Questionnaire (PDQ)-39 Summary Index (SI) and subscores: mobility, activities of daily living, emotional well-being, stigma, social support, cognition, communication, bodily discomfort - Parkinson’s Disease Questionnaire 39 (PDQ-39) – speech questions 34 and 35 - % of subjects with at least 25% increase in projected battery longevity as compared with cDBS - Parkinson’s Disease Home Diary: “On” time without troublesome dyskinesia, “On” time without dyskinesia, “On” time with non-troublesome dyskinesia, “On” time with troublesome dyskinesia, “Off” time, and asleep time [This analysis will use the FAS] - Patient preference of aDBS vs cDBS (as assessed by Medtronic-developed patient preference questionnaire) - Patient satisfaction with aDBS (as assessed by a Medtronic developed patient satisfaction questionnaire) PMA P960009/S478: FDA Summary of Safety and Effectiveness Data Page 21 of 59 {21} - Device data from JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) file, including BrainSense data # Long-term Follow-up Phase and Extended Access Phase Assessments Complete adverse event data were collected during the Long-term Follow-up and Extended Access phases of the study. Effectiveness data at each Long-term Follow-up phase visit included the PDQ-39 and EQ-5D-5L and, at the sixth visit only, the patient satisfaction questionnaire (PSQ). The PDQ-39 and EQ-5D-5L were collected at each of the Extended Access phase visits. # 4. Statistical Analysis Methods # Analysis Sets - All-Consented (AC): includes all subjects who properly signed the study-specific informed consent (IC). This patient set will be used to summarize patient disposition. - Single-Threshold Full Analysis Set (FAS): all Primary Cohort subjects who initiated a period of treatment using Single-Threshold aDBS during the aDBS Evaluation Phase. - Dual-Threshold FAS: all Primary Cohort subjects who initiated a period of treatment using Dual Threshold aDBS during the aDBS Evaluation Phase. - Total FAS: all Primary Cohort subjects who initiated the aDBS Evaluation Phase using the randomized treatment assignment for each subject that was randomized and the programmable treatment assignment for those subjects that were configured to one aDBS mode (dual or single threshold). The union of the Single- and Dual-Threshold FASs. - Single-/Dual-Threshold As-treated (AT): all Primary Cohort subjects who are treated with continuous Deep Brain Stimulation (cDBS) and/or adaptive Deep Brain Stimulation (aDBS) during the cDBS Baseline Evaluation Phase, the aDBS Evaluation Phase and/or the Long-term Follow-up Phase; uses the observed treatment used for each subject in each phase. - Single-/Dual-Threshold Complete-Case Sets (CC): Single-/Dual-Threshold FASs without imputation, includes all Primary Cohort FAS subjects with available measures for the respective analysis - All-randomized (AR): all Primary Cohort subjects who were randomized in the aDBS Evaluation Phase - Primary Cohort Single-/Dual-Threshold modified Intention-to-Treat (mITT) Set: all Primary Cohort subjects who were successfully setup for Single-/Dual-Threshold aDBS mode during the aDBS Setup and Evaluation Phase. - Directional Stimulation As-Treated (DSAT)/Complete Case (DSCC): all Directional Stimulation Cohort subjects meeting analogous AT/CC criteria. For each aDBS mode, primary and secondary objectives were analyzed using the mode-specific Full Analysis Set (FAS). PMA P960009/S478: FDA Summary of Safety and Effectiveness Data Page 22 of 59 {22} ### Primary effectiveness analysis No formal statistical inferences are derived from the study’s primary and secondary endpoint data, which are instead analyzed descriptively, because the patient-specific success threshold for these binary success/failure endpoints was revised post-hoc. As discussed in Section: *Primary Effectiveness Endpoint* above, the prespecified patient-specific success threshold was cDBS baseline daily average good “On” time *minus 1 standard deviation*; in the prespecified primary hypothesis test, the resulting success rate was to be compared with a performance goal set to 50% using a one-sided exact binomial test. However, the agency observed that, since the prespecified success threshold depended on the sample standard deviation, two key assumptions underpinning the exact binomial testing procedure were violated, causing type-I error inflation when the distribution of differences in good “On” time was skewed, as was the case for the Single-Threshold aDBS mode comparison. The revised success threshold (cDBS baseline daily average good “On” time *minus 2 hours per day*) is more conservative (requires *more* good “On” time) than the original and ameliorates these type-I error concerns. Still, formal confirmatory inference through hypothesis testing is precluded since the issue was identified post-hoc and addressed through substantive post-hoc revision of the primary endpoint definition. For each aDBS mode, the proportion of subjects who met the primary “success” criteria – aDBS mode daily average “On” time without troublesome dyskinesia exceeding a patient-specific threshold defined as cDBS baseline daily average “On” time without troublesome dyskinesia minus 2 hours per day – is computed on that aDBS mode’s Full Analysis Set (FAS). The lower bounds of 97.5% binomial exact confidence intervals are reported. ### Secondary effectiveness analysis Since formal hypothesis testing for the primary analysis was not possible due to post-hoc revisions to the primary endpoint definition, and the primary analysis was intended to gatekeep secondary hypothesis testing, secondary endpoints are analyzed descriptively. The total stimulation energy (TEED) under each aDBS mode during the aDBS Evaluation Phase is compared to cDBS mode during the cDBS Baseline Phase. Means and associated standard errors are reported for each aDBS mode, derived from the mode’s FAS. ### Missing data handling For each aDBS mode, missing primary endpoint data is imputed using multiple imputation if missingness is unrelated to that aDBS mode’s effectiveness or tolerability, and is imputed as a failure otherwise. Missing secondary endpoint data is imputed using multiple imputation. ## **B. Accountability of PMA Cohort** The ADAPT-PD Trial was conducted at 10 investigational sites in a total of 85 subjects (68 from the Primary Cohort and 17 from Directional Stimulation Cohort). The study enrolled 63 (74.1%) subjects in US and 22 (25.9%) subjects outside US. PMA P960009/S478: FDA Summary of Safety and Effectiveness Data Page 23 of 59 {23} Of the 85 subjects enrolled in the study, 70 subjects completed the cDBS Baseline Phase, 60 subjects entered the aDBS Evaluation Phase (43 were randomized and 17 had only one acceptable mode), and 60 subjects completed the aDBS Evaluation Phase. All active subjects (54) have completed the Long-term Follow-up Phase. Thirty-three (33) subjects were discontinued early from the study. Among these early discontinuations, 25 subjects discontinued prior to the aDBS Evaluation Phase, none during the aDBS Evaluation Phase, and 8 after the aDBS Evaluation Phase. ![img-5.jpeg](img-5.jpeg) Figure 6: Subject Disposition Note: Counts at each visit indicate the number of subjects who completed the visit (denoted as nc) and number of subjects who missed the visit (denoted as nm); PC: Primary Cohort, DS: Directional Stimulation Cohort Table 3 below documents counts of subject discontinuations by Cohort, study phase, and discontinuation type.

Of the 12 subjects that failed LFP screening, 4 subjects had the peak band amplitude < 1.2μVp on both hemispheres and 6 subjects reported signal artifact. Additionally, there were 2 LFP Screen failures during the aDBS setup and adjustment period through randomization because in one subject aDBS was not able to be set up and in the other an adequate LFP signal was not obtained. No additional subjects exited the study due to the loss of LFP signals starting from the aDBS Evaluation Phase to the Extended Access Phase of the study. See Table 4 below for a summary of all LFP screening results. Table 4: Summary of LFP Screening Result | LFP Screening Results | All Consented (N=85) | | --- | --- | | Success | 72 (84.7%) | | Failure | 12 (14.1%) | | NA | 1 (1.2%) | ## Post-Screening Exclusions from Primary Cohort's Full Analysis Sets The primary and secondary analyses of each aDBS mode is conducted on that mode's Full Analysis Set, defined as the set of subjects in the Primary Cohort who initiated a period of treatment using that mode during the aDBS Evaluation Phase of the study. At the end of the Screening Phase, 53 subjects in the Primary Cohort continued to the cDBS Baseline Phase. 52/53 Primary Cohort subjects continued to the aDBS Setup and Adjustment Phase. Each of these continuing Primary Cohort subjects were potentially eligible for both mode-specific Full Analysis Sets. At the start of the aDBS Setup and Adjustment Phase, investigators attempted to setup each aDBS mode; if subjects could not be setup for an aDBS mode (due to LFP exclusion or other reasons), they were not assigned treatment using that mode during the aDBS Evaluation Phase and were excluded from that mode's FAS and primary analysis. In the Primary Cohort, 3/52 (5.8%) subjects discontinued the study during the aDBS Setup and Adjustment Phase due to logistical reasons and were removed from both Single-Threshold and Dual-Threshold FASs. Additionally, Single-Threshold and Dual-Threshold aDBS modes could not be setup in 6/52 (11.5%) and PMA P960009/S478: FDA Summary of Safety and Effectiveness Data Page 26 of 59 {26} 3/52 (5.8%) Primary Cohort subjects, respectively. See Table 5. After accounting for these exclusions, the Single- and Dual-Threshold mITT sets of all subjects who were successfully setup under Single- and Dual-Threshold mode during the aDBS Setup and Adjustment Phase contained 43 and 46 subjects, respectively. Table 5: Discontinuations and Setup Exclusions from FAS during aDBS Setup and Adjustment Phase | Reason for Exclusion from FAS | Single Threshold FAS | Dual Threshold FAS | | --- | --- | --- | | | N = 52 continued post cDBS Baseline | | | Discontinued study: Logistical Issues | 3 | 3 | | Unable to setup: LFP Screen Fail | 1 | 1 | | Unable to setup: Other | 5 | 2 | | **Total setup** | **43** | **46** | For each successfully setup aDBS mode, stimulation parameters were optimized over additional in-clinic or remote visits as needed during an adjustment period lasting up to 60 days and then assessed using a modified Global Impression of Change (GIC) scale comparing efficacy and side-effects to cDBS. None, one or both modes were determined to be “acceptable” using a GIC score of ≤8 as a threshold. See white and grey shaded boxes in Table 6 below for “acceptable” and “unacceptable” GIC ratings. Patients with an “unacceptable” GIC rating for a given aDBS mode were not assigned treatment using that mode during the aDBS Evaluation Phase and were excluded from that mode’s FAS and primary analysis. In the primary cohort, Single-Threshold and Dual-Threshold aDBS modes were “unacceptable” in 8/43 (18.6%) and 6/46 (13.0%) subjects, respectively, who could otherwise setup the mode and continue participation in the study. See Table 7.

Of the 85 enrolled subjects, 25 had early discontinuations and 60 entered the aDBS Evaluation Phase. 43 subjects received treatment with both aDBS modes in randomized order, and 17 received treatment with only one mode. Of the 43 randomized subjects, 22 (36.7%) subjects were randomized to receive Single Threshold mode first followed by Dual Threshold mode, and 21 (35%) subjects were randomized to receive Dual Threshold mode first followed by Single Threshold. Of the 17 subjects that received one mode, 5 (8.3%) received Single Threshold and 12 (20%) received Dual Threshold.

All neurostimulator systems (INS, extension, leads) were implanted prior to enrollment. The two lead types are legacy leads (models 3387 or 3389) and SenSight leads (models B33005 or B33015). Each subject had two leads (left and right hemispheres) with two target site locations. Since the two lead types and two target site locations for each subject were the same, summaries of lead type and target site by subject are presented. Most subjects (76.5%, 65/85) were implanted with their first DBS system an average of 0.5 years prior to enrollment. Most subjects (76.5%, 65/85) had the target site in the STN.

All Randomized subjects completed the aDBS Evaluation Phase of the study. However, 3 subjects did not complete the aDBS Evaluation Phase as Randomized. Two subjects were unable to complete the evaluation period for Single-Threshold aDBS mode due to side effects and switched to the Dual-Threshold aDBS mode without completing the required Single-Threshold mode evaluations. One subject was inadvertently reprogrammed to cDBS throughout the aDBS Evaluation Phase. These subjects were included in the analysis for the primary endpoint, imputing data for the subject inadvertently switched to cDBS using multiple imputation, and imputing data for subjects who switched modes due to side effects as failures. Subjects with otherwise missing primary and secondary endpoint data had data imputed using multiple imputation. ### 1. Safety Results The analysis of safety was based on the All-Consented cohort of 85 subjects from enrollment through the Extended Access Phase of the study. The key safety outcomes for this study are presented below in Table 14 to Table 20. ### Adverse effects that occurred in the PMA clinical study: Table 14 below presents an overview of the adverse events (AEs). - Overall, the incidence of adverse events was 78.8%, and 56.5% for adverse device events. - Serious adverse events were reported in 17.6% of subjects with 1 subject experiencing 2 serious adverse device events (fall [1 event], spinal fracture [1 event]) in the Extended Access Phase. PMA P960009/S478: FDA Summary of Safety and Effectiveness Data Page 33 of 59 {33} Table 14: Brief Overview of Adverse Events | Event type | Events (Subjects, % of Subjects) | | | --- | --- | --- | | | All Consented (N = 85) | | | | ADE | Total | | All AEs | 155 (48, 56.5%) | 510 (67, 78.8%) | | SAE | 2 (1, 1.2%) | 23 (15, 17.6%) | Abbreviations: AE=adverse event, SAE=serious adverse event, ADE=adverse device event. Among all consented subjects from enrollment through the Extended Access Phase, there were 23 SAEs in 15 subjects (17.6%, Table 15). All subjects were implanted with a Percept PC device and stable on their medications and programming prior to enrollment in the ADAPT-PD Trial. Table 15: Serious Adverse Events | | Events (Subjects, % of Subjects) | | --- | --- | | | All Consented subjects | | | (N = 85) | | **All Serious Adverse Events** | **23 (15, 17.6%)** | | Fall | 4 (3, 3.5%) | | Pneumothorax | 2 (2, 2.4%) | | Urinary tract infection | 2 (2, 2.4%) | | Abdominal pain | 1 (1, 1.2%) | | Arthritis | 1 (1, 1.2%) | | Choking^{1} | 1 (1, 1.2%) | | Craniocerebral injury | 1 (1, 1.2%) | | Dislocation of vertebra | 1 (1, 1.2%) | | Dizziness | 1 (1, 1.2%) | | Giardiasis | 1 (1, 1.2%) | | Myocardial infarction | 1 (1, 1.2%) | | Nephrolithiasis | 1 (1, 1.2%) | | Radiculopathy | 1 (1, 1.2%) | | Rib Fracture | 1 (1, 1.2%) | | Skull fracture | 1 (1, 1.2%) | | Spinal fracture | 1 (1, 1.2%) | | Spinal osteoarthritis | 1 (1, 1.2%) | | Sternal fracture | 1 (1, 1.2%) | $^{1}$ Choking led to death was unrelated to the study device, procedure, stimulation, or therapy PMA P960009/S478: FDA Summary of Safety and Effectiveness Data Page 34 of 59 {34} ### Significant Adverse Events - **Death** One subject death was reported in the optional Extended Access Phase of the study. This death was assessed by the investigator and the CEC as unrelated to the study device, procedure, therapy or stimulation. - **Suicidality** There were no suicidal ideations, behaviors, or self-injurious behaviors without suicidal intent reported in the study. - **Intracranial hemorrhage** One patient had a skull fracture resulting from a fall. This was classified as an SAE and a CT scan revealed that they had intraparenchymal, subarachnoid, and subdural hemorrhage. The event was considered by the investigator to be unlikely related to the stimulation or therapy and probably related to the disease under study. - **Device-related infections** There were no device-related infections reported in the study. ### *Display of adverse events (All Consented data set)* The most frequently occurring adverse events are summarized in Table 16. A total of 510 adverse events in 67 subjects (78.8%) were reported. The adverse events with the highest frequencies were falls (40.0%), worsening of Parkinson's disease symptoms (34.1%), and dyskinesia (22.4%). Note that documented pre-existing conditions (i.e., Parkinson's disease, Dyskinesia, Tremor) that worsened in intensity, duration, or frequency from the time of enrollment to study exit and/or closure were considered reportable events.
