Clinical Trial Summary

The research study is being conducted to test whether using high dose spaced theta-burst rTMS (a form of transcranial magnetic stimulation) produces a significant reduction in depressive symptoms compared with sham. This project will recruit patients aged 18-70 with symptoms of bipolar depression who have failed (or not shown signs of improvement) after at least two prior treatments.


Clinical Trial Description

The research study is being conducted to test whether using high dose spaced theta-burst rTMS (a form of transcranial magnetic stimulation) produces a significant reduction in depressive symptoms compared with sham. This project will recruit patients aged 18-70 with symptoms of bipolar depression who have failed (or not shown signs of improvement) after at least two prior treatments. The null hypothesis is that there will be no difference in reductions in depressive symptoms by the end of a five-day treatment period. The alternative hypothesis is that, compared with sham, active TMS will result in a greater reduction in depressive symptoms by the end of the treatment period. Participants will be randomly assigned to active or sham conditions: 50% to active and 50% to sham. ;
