PHASE2

Connectomic Targeted TMS Target for Refractory Anxiety

Sponsor: Brigham and Women's Hospital

View on ClinicalTrials.gov

Summary

We will perform a randomized sham-controlled trial of aiTBS to an anxiosomatic circuit in patients with anxiety-related disorders (i.e., panic disorder, generalized anxiety disorder, social anxiety disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder, and post-traumatic stress disorder). 80 participants with an anxiety-related disorder (defined below) will receive 50 active or sham TMS treatments over 5 days (following the SAINT protocol, which is FDA-cleared for MDD. The primary outcome will be the BAI, with a modified recall window to reflect the short treatment interval. Participants randomized to sham will be offered an open-label crossover extension.

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Transcranial magnetic stimulation

Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) is a focal, non-invasive form of brain stimulation that has FDA clearance for depression. In this study, a form of TMS called accelerated intermittent theta burst stimulation will be administered under the supervision of a physician with TMS expertise.

PROCEDURE

Sham transcranial magnetic stimulation

The sham TMS coil mimics the scalp sensation of real TMS by delivering a small amount of electrical current with a pair of surface electrodes.
