简要总结
To learn if accelerated rTMS (repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation) can be used as a possible therapy for excessive eating.
详细描述
Primary Objectives:
To evaluate the feasibility of using accelerated rTMS as a potential treatment adjuvant, we will assess the following feasibility primary outcomes:
- Recruitment: We will define recruitment as the probability of an eligible patient consenting to participate in the study. We will deem recruitment for this trial feasible if at least 70% of eligible patients consent to participate in the trial. (i.e., considering a pool of 30 eligible subjects, we consent at least 21 participants).
- Tolerability: For each sequence, we will follow an up-titration procedure (from 80% up to 110% of the motor threshold) and define the optimally tolerable dose (OTD) as the dose that at least 70% of participants can tolerate. Tolerability will be computed separately for each rTMS sequence.
- Safety: To consider the treatment safe, there must be no serious adverse events attributable to rTMS.
Secondary Objectives
We will measure:

研究组 & 干预措施
Intermittent theta burst stimulation
Participants undergo rTMS once a week for 2 weeks. In week 1 participants receive intermittent theta burst stimulation (iTBS)" for 3 sessions; in week 2 participants receive continuous theta burst stimulation ciTBS) for 3 sessions. Additionally, participants complete cued food delivery task assessment and undergo saliva sample collection on study.
