Rapport Therapeutics and NeuroPace Collaboration
Scope of Work and Budget (“SOW”) to support An Open-label, Long Term Study Evaluating RAP-219 in Adult Participants with Refractory Focal Onset Seizures (RAP-219-FOS-901, Phase 2). The Effective Date of this SOW#2 shall be the date of the last signing party’s signature.
Rapport Therapeutics is planning an Open Label Extension study to continue evaluation of patients previously enrolled in the first-in-class TARP-g8 negative allosteric modulator study (RAP-219). NeuroPace’s involvement in the project will focus on continued evaluation of patient-specific biomarkers by way of analysis of RNS System ambulatory electrocorticographic (ECoG) and device diagnostic data. It is estimated that up to [***] patients may be enrolled.
Successful execution and operation of the study will require close collaboration and data sharing between Rapport and NeuroPace. The existing Master Services Agreement (MSA) as executed November 28, 2023, will remain as the enforcing services agreement to this SOW.
Data collected by the NeuroPace® RNS® System and metrics derived from RNS® System data will be provided by NeuroPace to Rapport, as described in Appendix 1. RNS System data are downloaded from the RNS Neurostimulator each time it is interrogated by the patient or clinician, then uploaded to the RNS Patient Data Management System (PDMS). Data and derived metrics will be documented and provided at specified intervals and on demand in CSV formatted text files to facilitate subsequent analysis. Raw RNS System data supporting the derived metrics will not be provided and remains proprietary to NeuroPace. The provided data and derived metrics will be shared with authorized third parties as detailed in the MSA.
The time range and frequency of the data to be provided are detailed under the Deliverables Schedule below. The nature and frequency of in-person data reviews is provided in the Data Review Schedule below.
Under the terms of this collaboration agreement, NeuroPace will not be required to develop or write regulatory submissions, contract with sites, support IRB submissions, develop or perform non-device related statistical analyses or be responsible for clinical trial management. These items will be the responsibility of Rapport.
