This is a multi-center, single arm, prospective, open-label, extendable study for the efficacy and safety of dual-target deep brain stimulation for treatment-resistant alcohol use disorder.
Total of 12 subjects from two centers ( Shanghai Mental Health Center and The Second Xiangya Hospital of Central South University ) who fit inclusion and exclusion criteria are recruited to undergo neurosurgical implantation of dual-target Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) in bilateral nucleus accumbens (NAcc) and anterior limb of internal capsule (ALIC) on a certain date, the DBS system will be turned on for stimulation and parameters adjusted 10-14 days after implantation, treatment purposes are evaluated after DBS system has been turned on for 9-32 weeks. Primary efficacy is evaluated by major alcohol consumption rate, uncontrolled alcohol consumption days, maximum consecutive alcohol suspension days. Safety is evaluated by adverse events (AE) and device related AE, serious adverse events (SAE) and device related SAE, device deficiencies (DD) and device malfunction, physical examination and vital signs, laboratory examination, ECG, imageological examination, scale evaluation and early drop out ratio due to AE.

| Label | Type | Description | Intervention Names |
|---|---|---|---|
| dual-target deep brain stimulation | Experimental | This is a single arm, prospective, open label clinical study, participants who fit inclusion/exclusion standards, completed physical anti-addiction treatments and surgical implantation standard will start DBS system stimulation and adjust parameters after 10-14 days of implantation. Then after stimulation for 9-32 weeks, they will be evaluated for treatment efficacies. This study is extendable, with agreements from participants, long term efficacy and safety follow-up study will be performed after 32 weeks ± 7 days of following, once every 2-3 months. |

| Name | Type | Description | Arm Group Labels | Other Names |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| dual-target deep brain stimulation | Device | DBS electrodes will be implanted into the ALIC and the NAcc, electric stimulation of those areas are used to treat alcohol use disorder and to evaluate the efficacy and safety of DBS system. |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Major alcohol use rate | Calculation formula: 'major alcohol use' times / 56 (total observation times) * 100% | 24 weeks |
| Cumulated uncontrolled alcohol use days |
| 24 weeks |
| Maximum consecutive alcohol suspension days | a) Marked as maximum days of 'Constant alcohol suspension' b) Note: i. Major alcohol use standard: Blow test positive and reported ≥ 5 standard cups daily over the past 3 days. 1 standard cup = 10g of pure alcohol. ii. Minor alcohol use standard: No matter blow test is positive or not, alcohol use is reported over past 3 days but less than 5 standard cups. iii. Constant alcohol suspension standard: Blow test negative and no alcohol use reported over past 3 days. | 24 weeks |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Alcohol use volume | 9-32 weeks after stimulation, change in monthly average alcohol use volume compared to baseline. (Record in every follow-up according to participants. Record alcohol type, amount and experience when drinking throughout 9-32 weeks after stimulation. Increased value implies worse result and reduce of alcohol use volume indicates improvement. | 24 weeks |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Brain electrophysiology study（electroencephalogram） | Electroencephalographic rhythms (theta and beta) were recorded. And theta/beta ratio was compared to before stimulation | Before stimulation and parameter optimization period(1-8 weeks after stimulation) |
| Brain electrophysiology study（Local Field Potentials） |
