Neural Circuit Biomarkers of Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation Study (NCT04663841)
Mechanistic Circuit Markers of Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation Outcomes in Pharmacoresistant Depression
🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
This study is currently recruiting Veterans only. The objective of this observational study is to test whether neuroimaging biomarkers of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) can be prospectively replicated in a large ecologically valid sample. We focus on cognitive network connectivity as a predictive biomarker of the clinical effect of TMS, and as a response biomarker of change with TMS. We address this objective through a pragmatic approach in which we recruit patients undergoing routine clinical care and program evaluation in a Veterans Administration multi-site clinical TMS program.
