About this trial

The CYBORG Study is a first-in-human clinical investigation evaluating the safety and performance of the Phantom X System, an implantable electromyography (EMG) sensor array designed to provide control of upper-limb prostheses. The study will assess surgical feasibility, device function, signal quality, and the system's ability to support intuitive prosthetic control during functional tasks. Participants will undergo implantation of the Phantom X sensors and complete a series of in-clinic visits to assess functional performance of the Phantom X system. Patient-reported outcomes will also be collected at various timepoints.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Patient has a unilateral upper-limb difference (congenital or acquired) at the transradial or wrist level.

The patient currently uses a myoelectric prosthesis or is deemed a suitable candidate for fitting with a myoelectric prosthesis.

Patient is a suitable candidate for the implantation of the Phantom X sensor array as assessed by the implanting physician.

Patient is at least 18 years old and can provide written informed consent.

Disqualifiers

Patient has a significant cognitive deficit resulting in inability to follow study directions.

Patient has a neuro-muscular deficit and is unable to initiate substantial muscle contraction in the residual limb as determined by the implanting physician or investigator.

Patient has another medical condition, which, in the opinion of the Investigator, may cause him/her to be non-compliant with the protocol, confound the data interpretation, or is associated with a life expectancy insufficient to allow for the completion of study procedures and follow-up.

The patient has a planned medical procedure (e.g., surgery) during the study period that could interfere with compliance with study visits or assessments.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Safety of Phantom X system during the implantation procedure, peri-procedurally, and 9 weeks thereafter

Safety is characterized by collecting device and procedure related adverse events during device implantation and 9-week study follow-up.
