The initial prescription for Cala Trio therapy includes a
stimulator, a three-month band supply, and a base station
for charging. A reill prescription for Cala Trio therapy
includes a three-month band supply every three months
for one year.
There are three steps in writing a prescription:
1. Select hand to treat
2. Determine band size
3. Select “Tremor Task”
4.1 Choosing the Hand to Treat
Cala Trio is indicated to aid in the transient relief of hand
tremors in the treated hand following stimulation in adults
with essential tremor (ET).
Cala Trio is designed to stimulate nerves in the left OR
right wrist. The device is not interchangeable between
the left and right hand.
4.2 Determining Band Size
Cala Trio Band comes in three sizes: Small, Medium,
and Large. To determine the appropriate band size,
measure the subject’s wrist circumference of the
hand chosen for treatment.
To select the correct band size:
1. Measure the subject’s wrist circumference with
a wrist measurement device/measuring tape.
Measure over the wrist bone.
2. Wrap the measuring tape around the wrist. There
should be no visible gaps between the measuring
tape and the skin.
3. Select the appropriate band size according
to the following:
Small: 13.6 – 16.4 cm
Medium: 16.5 – 18.4 cm
Large: 18.5 – 20.4 cm
OR
Outstretched
postural hold
Wing-beating
postural hold
Before using the device, assess both postural holds with
your patient and determine their tremor task. Choose the
more severe postural hold. Advise the patient that this
speciic “Tremor Task”, either the outstretched OR wing-
beating hold, will be done when the device prompts them
for a tremor task.
PRESCRIBING Cala Trio™

4.3 Determining “Tremor Task”
The “Tremor Task” is a postural hold that helps
characterize the patient’s tremor. It is integral to the
therapy as the patient will perform the hold:
• during setup to deine the patient’s baseline
tremor before starting therapy and to calibrate the
individualized therapy.
• before and after therapy to characterize its impact.
You shall determine the tremor task to be the more
severe of the following two postural holds:
outstretched OR wing-beating.

9.1 Study Overview
The study was multi-center, prospective, randomized,
double-blinded, and sham-stimulation controlled. Each
subject was seen for a single three-hour appointment at
a study site. Subjects were randomized one-to-one to
either the investigational TAPS stimulation (“treatment”
group) or sham stimulation (“sham” group). The TAPS
stimulation amplitude for the treatment group was based
on each subject’s stimulation threshold. The sham group
received 0-amplitude stimulation. The study site personnel
and investigator were not blinded and knew the subject’s
therapy allocation. However, the subject and the raters
assessing the primary effectiveness endpoint were blinded.
The subjects’ tremor severity was assessed before, during,
and immediately after the 40-minute stimulation session
using various metrics. Safety was assessed using adverse
event data collected during the study.
9.2 Key Inclusion Criteria
1. At least 22 years of age
2. A diagnosis of essential tremor as conirmed from
clinical history and examination by a movement
disorder neurologist
3. At least one hand exhibiting kinetic tremor ≥ 2 as
assessed by the Essential Tremor Rating Assessment
Scale (TETRAS) Archimedes spiral task completed
during the baseline evaluation, as assessed by the
Investigator in-person.
4. Score of 3 or above in any one of the items of the
Bain & Findley Activities of Daily Living Scale
9.3 Key Exclusion Criteria
1. Implanted electrical medical device, such as a
pacemaker, deibrillator, or deep brain stimulator
2. Previous thalamotomy procedure, including
Stereotactic Thalamotomy, Gamma Knife
Radiosurgical Thalamotomy, and focused
ultrasound, for the treatment of tremor
3. Suspected or diagnosed epilepsy or other
seizure disorder
4. Pregnant
5. Swollen, infected, inlamed areas, or skin eruptions,
open wounds, or cancerous lesions of skin at
stimulation site
6. Peripheral neuropathy affecting the tested
upper extremity

8. Other possible causes of tremor, including
Parkinson’s disease, drug-induced, enhanced
physiological tremor, dystonia
9. Other neurodegenerative disease like Parkinson-plus
syndromes suspected on neurological examination.
These include: multisystem atrophy, progressive
supranuclear palsy, dementia with Lewy bodies,
and cortical basal ganglionic degeneration
10. Changes in medication for tremor within 1 month prior
to study enrollment
11. Change in antidepressant medication within 3 months
prior to study enrollment
12. Botulinum Toxin injection for hand tremor within 6
months prior to study enrollment
13. Alcohol or caffeine consumption within 12 hours of
study enrollment
Subjects already taking medications for their essential
tremor remained on their medications during the study.
9.4 Study Endpoints
Safety
The primary safety endpoint was an analysis of adverse
events types and rates for all enrolled subjects.
Effectiveness
• The primary effectiveness endpoint was a signiicantly
greater change in the treatment group compared to
the sham group in the TETRAS Archimedes spiral
rating after stimulation compared to baseline. An
analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) model was used to
assess the statistical signiicance of the difference in
the mean change between the treatment and sham
groups. The model included the baseline score as a
continuous covariate, and randomization assignment
as a classiication variable.

»TETRAS Archimedes Spiral Task
The TETRAS Archimedes Spiral Task requires
subjects to copy a spiral drawing in a 10-cm sized
square. At baseline, the investigator rated the spiral.
To determine if the subject met the inclusion criteria
of a minimum score of 2, the investigator rated the
spirals on the 5-point (0-4) TETRAS scale with
1-point resolution:
0= normal
1= slight: tremor barely visible.
2= mild: obvious tremor
3 = moderate: portions of igure not recognizable.
4= severe: igure not recognizable
Note: The investigators were required to rate the spirals
using a 1-point resolution to assess inclusion into the
study, whereas the blinded raters could use a 0.5-point
resolution using the same scale for the assessment of
baseline and subsequent measures.
In order to account for multiplicity, the secondary
effectiveness endpoints were to be analyzed using
a stepwise gate-keeping approach, whereby each
subsequent hypothesis would only be tested if the
preceding null hypothesis was rejected and secondary
endpoint hypotheses would only be tested if the
primary endpoint null hypothesis was rejected.
• The secondary effectiveness endpoints were:
- a signiicantly greater change in the treatment
group compared to the sham group in the TETRAS
Archimedes spiral rating during stimulation
compared to baseline
- a signiicantly greater self-reported improvement in
the treatment group (CGI-I scale) compared to the
sham group.
»CGI-I Scale
The Clinical Global Impression-Improvement (CGI-I) scale
is a 7-point self-report scale that required the subject
to assess how much their tremor level has improved or
worsened relative to their baseline ate prior to the
session. The subject reported their improvement on the
7-point CGI-I scale defined as follows:
1= Very much improved
2= Much improved
3= Minimally improved
4= No change
5= Minimally worse
6= Much worse
7= Very much worse
• Additional Exploratory Analyses:
»Bain & Findley ADL Scale
To thoroughly document tremor severity, the
complete 25-item scale was administered at baseline.
A subset of 7 Bain & Findley ADL tasks that can be
performed unilaterally (using one hand) and do not
require the dominant hand were performed by the
subject at baseline and after the session to evaluate
functional improvements in activities of daily living.
These 7 tasks were:
- Use a spoon to drink soup
- Hold a cup of tea
- Pour milk from a bottle or carton
- Dial a telephone
- Pick up your change in a shop
- Insert an electric plug into a socket
- Unlock your front door with a key
The subjects (blinded as to whether they received
stimulation or sham) performed the tasks and rated
themselves from 1-4 on the following Bain & Findley
ADL scale:
1= Able to do the activity without dificulty
2= Able to do the activity with a little effort
3= Able to do the activity with a lot of effort
4= Cannot do the activity by yourself
»TETRAS Upper Limb Tremor (ULT)
The TETRAS Upper Limb Tremor assessment included
three tasks to assess tremor severity: forward
outstretched posture, lateral “wing beating” posture,
and kinetic inger-nose-inger testing. At baseline,
each upper limb was assessed and scored individually
by the investigator using the TETRAS rating scale
(0-4 scale with 8-point resolution) described below.
The TETRAS Upper Limb Tremor tasks were repeated
during and after stimulation, and scored by the
investigator using the same TETRAS rating scale.
0= no tremor
1= tremor is barely visible
1.5 = tremor is visible, but less than 1 cm
2= tremor is 1- < 3 cm amplitude
2.5 = tremor is 3- < 5 cm amplitude
3= tremor is 5- < 10 cm amplitude
3.5 = tremor is 10- < 20 cm amplitude
4= tremor is > 20 cm amplitude

»Responder Rate
Additionally, the responder rate by therapy
allocation, was calculated for each of the TETRAS
tasks, where the responder rate was deined as the
percentage of subjects with a ≥ 0.5 point improvement
from baseline.
9.5 Protocol
For each subject’s single in-clinic visit, baseline
measurements of the study effectiveness endpoints
were taken prior to stimulation with treatment or sham.
After 20 seconds at a speciic stimulation level, the device
automatically transitioned into a 40-minute stimulation
session of treatment with TAPS (Cala ONE device will
continue stimulating at the same level) or sham (Cala
ONE device will transition to 0 amplitude stimulation).
The device continued operating for 40 minutes. Endpoint
measurements were taken during and after stimulation.
During stimulation the subject repeated the same set of
TETRAS tasks that were performed during baseline, at 30
+/- 5 minutes into the session. A study-trained neurologist
rated all performed TETRAS tasks in-person, except for
the Archimedes spiral task, which was rated later by
blinded raters.
After the 40-minute stimulation session, the Cala ONE
device automatically turned off. With the Cala ONE
device remaining on the subject’s wrist, the neurologist
instructed each subject to repeat the same set of TETRAS
tasks. The neurologist rated all performed TETRAS tasks
in-person, except for the Archimedes spiral task, which
was rated later by blinded raters.
Next the subject repeated the same Bain & Findley ADLs
completed during baseline, and rated themselves on
each task. The subject also assessed any changes in their
tremor level (compared to baseline) using the Clinical
Global Impression– Improvement (CGI-I) scale.
For the effectiveness endpoints and to assess whether the
subject met the criteria to be included in the Effectiveness
Analysis Population (see below), 3 independent blinded
raters evaluated the Archimedes spirals collected at
baseline, during, and after stimulation as described above.
The raters were board certiied neurologists trained in
movement disorders, and were blinded to the therapy
allocation (sham or treatment) and to the spiral order
(e.g., baseline, during, or after stimulation). The
independent blinded raters rated the spirals using the
5-point (0-4) TETRAS scale using a 0.5-point resolution.
The scores from all three raters were averaged to get the
inal rating for each spiral.
9.6 Statistical Analysis Plan (SAP)
• Analysis populations
»The primary and secondary effectiveness endpoints
were assessed on the Effectiveness Analysis
Population (EAP), which was deined as the enrolled
subjects with a baseline TETRAS spiral rating ≥ 2 as
assessed by the average score from 3 independent
blinded raters.
»Per protocol (PP) analysis set included subjects
who had no major protocol deviation and was
done as sensitivity analysis for primary and
effectiveness endpoints.
»Safety analysis included all enrolled subjects.
• Safety Analysis
Adverse event (AE) rates were planned to be presented
on all enrolled subjects, overall as well as by treatment
group. The rates of events and type were presented and
compared between groups using the Fisher’s Exact test.
• Blinding Assessment
The successfulness of the blinding of subjects was
assessed at the end of the study visit using a blinding
assessment questionnaire. Subjects were asked whether
they thought they were in the active or sham group or
if they do not know on a three-point scale. The sponsor
calculated the distribution of the responses to this
assessment.
9.7 Study Results
Subject Disposition
The irst subject was enrolled on 11-Apr-2016 and the
last subject completed on 4-Nov-2016. The subject
disposition is provided in Figure 9. A total of 111 subjects
were screened for the study, and 93 subjects were enrolled
and randomized. 48 subjects were randomized to receive
TAPS stimulation (“treatment” group), and 45 subjects
were randomized to receive 0-amplitude sham stimulation
(“sham” group). 92 of the 93 enrolled subjects completed
the study; one subject discontinued because the subject’s
wrist circumference was outside the range of wrist
circumferences for which the Cala ONE is designed. Of the
92 subjects who completed the study, 77 (37 in the sham
group and 40 in the treatment group) met the pre-speciied
EAP criteria of having a baseline TETRAS Archimedes
spiral rating ≥ 2, as assessed by the three blinded raters.
As prespeciied in the investigational plan, effectiveness
was assessed on the Effectiveness Analysis Population,

which is deined as the enrolled subjects with a baseline
TETRAS spiral rating ≥ 2, as assessed by the average score
from three independent blinded raters. Due to potential
differences between the in-person spiral rating from
the investigator and the spiral rating averaged across 3
blinded raters, it was possible that a few enrolled subjects
who met the inclusion criteria of a baseline TETRAS spiral
rating ≥ 2 as assessed by the investigator, would not
meet the criteria of a baseline TETRAS spiral rating ≥ 2
as assessed by the average score from the three raters.
In this situation, these subjects were not included in the
Effectiveness Analysis Population (EAP).

on average had moderate tremors, as demonstrated
by an average baseline Bain & Findley ADL total score
of 45.4 (out of 100), an average baseline upper-limb
TETRAS score of 25.3 (out of 64), and an average Quality
of life in Essential Tremor Questionnaire (QUEST) score
of 0.31 (out of 1). There were no statistical differences
between the treatment and sham groups in the enrolled
population related to subject demographics or baseline
characteristics.
In the EAP and PP, there was a statistical difference or
borderline statistical difference between the treatment
and sham groups in their baseline TETRAS Spiral rating
(p = 0.021 and p = 0.065, respectively). Baseline spiral
rating was accounted for in the primary effectiveness
endpoint analysis of covariance model.
Primary Endpoint
After 40 minutes of device use, the treatment group
improved by an estimated 0.56 points, whereas the
sham group improved by an estimated 0.39 points. The
improvement in both groups was highly statistically
signiicant compared to their own baseline (p < 0.0001
and p = 0.0096, respectively), and the baseline score was
not a signiicant covariate. However, the improvement in
the treatment group was not statistically signiicantly

greater than the improvement in the sham group (p =
0.263). Therefore, the primary effectiveness endpoint was
not met. Further, the observed difference in improvement
between the groups (0.17 points) was not considered to be
clinically meaningful.
Sensitivity analyses on the primary effectiveness endpoint
were performed using the Enrolled Population and the
Per-Protocol Population. For both populations, the
treatment group experienced a greater improvement in
tremor compared to the sham group, and the baseline
score was not signiicant in the model; however, the
difference between the treatment and sham groups was
not found to be statistically signiicant.
Secondary Endpoints
To account for multiplicity, the statistical analysis plan
