Impulsivity With Borderline Personality Disorder/tMS

Status Recruiting

Clinical Trial Summary

This is a prospective, randomized, double-blind, parallel-group controlled trial. The aim of this research project is to compare the clinical benefits achieved in patients with Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) following two types of intervention: ccPAS active or ccPAS sham.

Clinical Trial Description

Borderline personality disorder (BPD) is a mental disorder characterized by unstable interpersonal relationships, emotional lability and marked impulsivity. The latter manifests itself through risky behaviors such as substance abuse, self-harm and suicidal behavior. Studies suggest that 1.3% of the general population suffers from BPD. However, in clinical settings, BPD patients represent 20% of all inpatients in psychiatric wards and up to 50% of patients hospitalized in emergency departments following a suicide attempt (SA). Moreover, it is estimated that nearly 84% of BPD patients will make at least one SA in their lifetime and up to 10% of them will die by suicide, a rate 50 times higher than the general population. Impulsivity, reflected in difficulties holding back action or stopping an action that has already begun, is one of the key symptoms of BPD. Recent advances in non-invasive brain stimulation have led to the emergence of a new stimulation protocol known as Paired Cortico-Cortical Associative Stimulation (ccPAS), which consists of repeating paired stimulations using two TMS coils placed respectively on two cortical regions of interest. Paired stimulations' repetition induces plasticity by strengthening synaptic connectivity between the two targeted regions. The aim of this project is to test the efficacy of a ccPAS protocol in enhancing effective connectivity between the IFC and pre-SMA in order to reduce impulsivity in BPD patients. The Sponsor hypothesized that one ccPAS session, using two coils simultaneously, targeting the IFC and pre-SMA with a 'physiological' inter-stimulus interval of 4ms will improve motor inhibition abilities (reduce SSRT), compared to the group receiving 'control' ccPAS (100ms inter-stimulus interval (ccPAS100-ms)). ;

Clinical trials are conducted in a series of steps, called phases - each phase is designed to answer a separate research question.

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.
