About this study

This is an extension study only inviting subjects who have previously completed the RESTFUL Study (NCT04874155).

Each study subject is enrolled into one of the following Arms:

Arm 1 (Direct Roll-Over Extension): 24-week open-label NPNS followed by 8-weeks of no treatment, no delay after completion of the RESTFUL Study

Arm 2 (Control Group): 24-weeks of no treatment

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • Subject previously completed the RESTFUL Study (NCT04874155).
  • Subject has signed a valid, Institutional Review Board-approved informed consent form, can understand the requirements of the study and instructions for device usage, and can converse in English.
  • [applicable to Arm 1 only] Subject agrees to not change dosage or schedule of any medications that are known to impact RLS symptoms during the study, including RLS medications, antidepressants, sleep medications, or sedative antihistamines.

Exclusion criteria

  • [applicable to Arm 1 only] Subject has active medical device implant anywhere in the body (including but not limited to pacemakers, spinal cord stimulators, deep brain stimulators) or metal implant at the site of study device electrode application.
  • [applicable to Arm 1 only] Subject has been diagnosed with one of the following conditions:
  • Epilepsy or other seizure disorder Current, active or acute or chronic infection other than common cold [and except for acute infections with mild symptoms]
  • A malignancy within the past 5 years (not including basal or squamous cell skin cancer)
  • Stage 4-5 chronic kidney disease or renal failure
  • Severe movement disorder symptoms (Parkinson's disease, Huntington's disease, dyskinesia, dystonia)
  • Deep vein thrombosis
  • Multiple sclerosis
  • Subject has moderate or severe cognitive disorder or mental illness.
  • [applicable to Arm 1 only] Subject has known allergy to device materials, electrode gel, polyurethane foam, or lycra (or severe previous reaction to medical adhesives or bandages).
  • [applicable to Arm 1 only] Subject has severe edema affecting lower legs.
  • [applicable to Arm 1 only] Subject has any of the following at or near the location of device application.
  • Acute injury
  • Cellulitis
  • Open sores
  • Other skin condition
  • [applicable to Arm 1 only] Subject is on dialysis or anticipated to start dialysis while participating in the study.
  • [applicable to Arm 1 only] Subject has received another investigational device or drug within 30 days before study entry, is planning to receive another investigational device or drug during the study, or is planning to change RLS medications during the study.
  • Subject is unable or unwilling to comply with study requirements.
  • [applicable to Arm 1 only] Subject is pregnant or trying to become pregnant.
  • Subject has a medical condition not listed above that may affect validity of the study as determined by the investigator.
  • [applicable to Arm 1 only] Subject has a medical condition not listed above that may put the subject at risk as determined by the investigator.
  • Subject was unwilling or unable to follow instructions in the RESTFUL Study, including missing 2 or more follow-up evaluations.
  • [applicable to Arm 1 only] Subject failed to properly operate the investigational devices during Weeks 5-8 of the RESTFUL Study.
  • [applicable to Arm 1 only] Subject experienced a significantly higher than expected rate of device malfunctions in the RESTFUL Study, such that the malfunctions appeared to be directly related to the subject's pattern of use.

Primary outcomes

  1. Number of Subjects for Which the Clinician Reported "Much Improved" or "Very Much Improved" on the Clinical Global Impressions-Improvement (CGI-I) Scale in Treatment Group (Arm 1) Relative to Baseline.

    Time frame: Week 24

    Responder rate is defined as the proportion of responses of "Much Improved" or "Very Much Improved" relative to baseline on the investigator-rated 7-point CGI-I scale. The outcomes were also evaluated as Treatment Group (Arm 1) at 24 weeks related to Control Group (Arm 2) at 24 weeks. The primary outcome, however, is the measure relative to baseline.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Number of Subjects That Report "Much Improved" or "Very Much Improved" on the Patient Global Impressions-Improvement (PGI-I) Scale in the Treatment Group (Arm 1) Relative to Baseline.

    Time frame: Week 24

    Responder rate is defined as the proportion of responses "Much Improved" or "Very Much Improved" on the Patient Global Impressions-Improvement (PGI-I) Scale in the Treatment Group (Arm 1) Relative to Baseline. Note that the Responder Rate was be calculated relative to baseline for the endpoint but was also be calculated relative to the value for the control group at Week 24.

  2. Mean Change From Baseline in International Restless Legs Syndrome Study Group Rating Scale (IRLS) Score in Arm 1

    Time frame: Week 24

    IRLS is a participant-rated questionnaire that rates RLS severity from 0-40, where 40 is the most severe. Note that the IRLS score was calculated relative to baseline for the endpoint but was also be calculated relative to the value for the control group at Week 24.

  3. Mean Change From Baseline in Medical Outcomes Study Sleep Problems Index II (MOS-II) Score in Arm 1

    Time frame: Week 24

    MOS-II is a subscale of the participant-rated MOS questionnaire that measures subjective sleep quality. The MOS-I (6-items) and MOS-II (9-items) are the two validated subscales of the 12-item MOS Sleep Scale. Both are scored from 0 to 100, where 100 corresponds to the worst possible sleep problems and 0 corresponds to no sleep problems. See https://labs.dgsom.ucla.edu/hays/files/view/docs/surveys/sleep/sleepman-112603.pdf for more information.

    Note that the mean MOS-II score was calculated relative to baseline for the endpoint but was also be calculated relative to the value for the control group at Week 24.

  4. Mean Change From Baseline in Medical Outcomes Study Sleep Problems Index I (MOS-I) Score in Arm 1

    Time frame: Week 24

    MOS-I is a subscale of the participant-rated MOS questionnaire that measures subjective sleep quality. The MOS-I (6-items) and MOS-II (9-items) are the two validated subscales of the 12-item MOS Sleep Scale. Both are scored from 0 to 100, where 100 corresponds to the worst possible sleep problems and 0 corresponds to no sleep problems. See https://labs.dgsom.ucla.edu/hays/files/view/docs/surveys/sleep/sleepman-112603.pdf for more information. Note that the outcome is measured relative to baseline but also relative to the Arm 2 (control group) at 24 weeks.

  5. Days Per Week of RLS Symptoms Based on Question #7 in the International Restless Legs Syndrome Study Group Rating Scale (IRLS) Score in Arm 1

    Time frame: Week 24

    The International Restless Legs Syndrome (IRLS) Question #7 is a participant-rated question that measures the frequency of RLS symptoms in terms of days per week.
