Summary

This trial compares intermittent theta-burst stimulation (iTBS) to low frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (LFR) in regards to depression and anxiety outcomes in 100 patients with treatment resistant depression (TRD).

DEVICE

Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation

rTMS will employ the MagPro X100 stimulator equipped with the cool-B70 coil (MagVenture, Farum, Denmark). The dose will be a 120% resting motor threshold (rMT) in accordance to our latest trial using iTBS. Localization of the right and left DLPFC will follow the well-established Beam F3 procedure. Subjects will then undergo 30 sessions of rTMS, once daily on weekdays for 6 weeks. FDA-approved iTBS protocol will consist of bursts of 3 pulses at 50 Hz, bursts repeated at 5 Hz for 600 pulses total, 2 s on, 8 s off, for 3 min 9 sec, at 120% rMT. LFR will consist of 1 Hz stimulation consisting of a single train of 10min duration for 600 pulses total at 120% rMT.
