Accelerated iTBS for Depression and Suicidality

Официальное название

Radical aiTBS Protocol for Intractable Depression

Обзор

The overall objective of this current study is to evaluate the feasibility, safety, and tolerability of "high dose" aiTBS in psychiatric inpatient and outpatients with treatment-refractory unipolar, non-psychotic major depressive disorder, using patients receiving ECT as an active comparator. Developing a better understanding of the feasibility and tolerability of adapting this treatment to an acutely ill patient population could lead to huge breakthroughs for clinician decision-making and for the further optimization of brain stimulation depression protocols. The results of this study can help guide future confirmatory efficacy trials of high-dose aiTBS by providing a better understanding of how feasibility, safety and tolerability compare to ECT, as well as unforeseen challenges of its use.

Вмешательства

• Устройство Accelerated Intermittent Theta Burst (aiTBS)
  High-dose intermittent theta burst administered at a treatment frequency 10x per day, with each treatment session duration 3x standard TMS (1800 pulses). Delivering 50 sessions in 5 days.
• Устройство Electroconvulsive therapy (ECT)
  ECT as per standard clinical care and management.

Первичные конечные точки

• Retention rate at completion of aiTBS vs the ECT group [Срок оценки: 5 days]
