A Randomized, Double-Blind Controlled Comparison of NRX-101 vs. Placebo for Adults Being Treated With Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation for Treatment Resistant Depression
NCT07227103 · Status: NOT_YET_RECRUITING · Phase: PHASE2/PHASE3 · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 120
Last updated 2025-11-12
Summary
Major depressive disorder (MDD) is a significant public health problem and leading cause of worldwide disability. Treatment resistance is common in MDD, however, for these individuals, targeted noninvasive brain stimulation is an alternative. Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) and more recently, theta-burst stimulation (TBS), are the noninvasive brain stimulation modalities with the largest evidence base in MDD. Although efficacious, an unacceptable proportion of patients do not significantly improve, and several aspects of the TMS parameter space are under investigation to enhance clinical outcomes.
DCS has been shown in a randomized trial of more than double the percent response and remission from traditional TMS. When the AMPA one day (ONE-D) TMS protocol was combined with DCS, the measured response rate was 87% at one week.
This trial will compare response and remission at six weeks following Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation + D-cycloserine vs. TMS+placebo.
