Axonics rechargeable sacral neuromodulation system (Model 5101 R20) for overactive bladder
Official title: Post-Market Clinical Follow-up Study of the Rechargeable Axonics SNM System Model 5101 (R20) for the Indication of Overactive Bladder (OAB)
Run by Axonics, Inc. · NCT06789406 · Data updated 2026-11-12
This study will test whether the rechargeable Axonics sacral neuromodulation system (Model 5101 R20) stays safe and continues to control symptoms over time in adults with overactive bladder, including urgency incontinence and frequent urination.

Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Adults aged 18 or older with primary overactive bladder symptoms (UUI or urinary frequency) who are candidates for or have been implanted with the Axonics Model 5101 R20 and can comply with follow-up visits are ideal participants.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients with significant neurological or psychiatric disorders that interfere with device evaluation, or those who previously failed an external SNM trial or were implanted with an SNM device without benefit, are unlikely to receive benefit from participating.

What this trial studies
This post-market clinical follow-up enrolls adults with overactive bladder who have received the rechargeable Axonics SNM System INS Model 5101 (R20) to monitor long-term safety, device performance, and clinical benefit. Participants attend scheduled follow-up visits at participating centers where investigators collect safety data, device functioning metrics, and symptom/outcome measures. The protocol excludes patients with major neurological or psychiatric conditions that could confound results and patients previously deemed non-responders to sacral neuromodulation. The multicenter program includes sites in the United States and the United Kingdom and is sponsored by Axonics, Inc.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, the study could confirm durable symptom control and a favorable long-term safety profile for the rechargeable Axonics SNM system, giving patients a reliable, lower-maintenance option for managing OAB.
How similar studies have gone: Sacral neuromodulation is an established therapy for OAB and prior studies and real-world experience with Axonics devices have shown sustained symptom improvement, so this PMCF builds on earlier positive evidence.

Any significant medical condition that is likely to interfere with procedures, device operation, or likely to confound evaluation of endpoints (i.e., neurological conditions such as multiple sclerosis) 2. Any psychiatric or personality disorder that is likely to interfere with procedures at the discretion of the participating physician; this may include poor understanding or compliance with requirements 3.
