Interventions, Observational Groups

Arm 1:
Implantation with brain neurostimulation EASEE® System per standard of care

Endpoints

Primary outcome:
Evaluate the effectiveness of treatment in terms of seizure control with the EASEE® System compared to historical control in subjects with drug-refractory epilepsy after 1 year
Secondary outcome:
• Quantify and characterize the long-term safety of treatment with the device in terms of device and/or procedure related (serious) adverse events • Characterize seizure control evolution over time • Assess the evolution of Patient Reported Outcomes (Quality of life, mood, neurocognition and device appreciation) over the study period • Evaluate the long-term performance of the device • Evaluate the overall safety of treatment with the device during the study
