Clinical Trial Summary

The primary goal of this study is to elucidate the impact of disorder provocation on the efficacy of TMS for the treatment of BED. In order to meet this objective, the investigators propose to evaluate this relationship in using a crossover study. Secondary objectives of this study include determining whether TMS with or without BED symptom provocation has effects in altering neurophysiology as detected by fMRI.


Clinical Trial Description

Current literature has demonstrated that transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) targeting the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) has some efficacy in treating binge eating disorder. The investigators believe that TMS may be beneficial in the treatment of binge eating disorder. The purpose of this study is to determine whether TMS has efficacy for binge eating disorder and if symptom provocation affects treatment. This study will be conducted as a pilot study in the Keck Hospital clinics. 32 adult patients with a clinical diagnosis of binge eating disorder will be recruited. ;
