简要总结
This pilot study is designed to test feasibility and superiority of rTMS types and target locations for the optimal rTMS intervention for individuals seeking treatment for Alcohol Use Disorder (AUD) or Opioid Use Disorder (OUD).
The critical questions this study seeks to answer are: which rTMS type applied to l-dlPFC in OUD participants will induce the greatest reduction of opioid use post-treatment? Is inhibitory rTMS applied to medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) more effective than excitatory rTMS applied to l-dlPFC at reducing alcohol use post treatment in AUD participants?
详细描述
Aim 1: To assess feasibility of applying rTMS within a residential treatment center. Feasibility will be assessed by 1) recruitment of sufficient numbers of AUD and OUD participants; 2) completion of the rTMS intervention; 3) retention of follow-up at the 4-week interval.
Aim 2: To assess superiority of mPFC cTBS compared to l-dlPFC iTBS to reduce alcohol use in AUD patients post-treatment. Superiority will be assessed by evaluating 1) treatment engagement at the 4-week interval (e.g., number of prescribed AUD treatments addended); 2) reduction of drinks/day post-treatment, compared to pre-treatment; 3) reduction of heavy drinking days (e.g., >5 drinks/day) post-treatment, compared to pre-treatment.
Aim 3: To assess superiority of l-dlPFC iTBS to l-dlPFC cTBS to reduce opioid use in OUD patients post-treatment. Superiority will be assessed by evaluating 1) treatment engagement at the 4-week interval (e.g., number of prescribed OUD treatments addended); 2) reduction of opioids used post-treatment, compared to pre-treatment.

入选标准
- •Be able to give valid informed consent in English.
- •Absence of cognitive impairment: IQ equivalent of ≥ 70 on the WRAT.
- •Receiving treatment for either AUD or OUD
排除标准
- •History of any neurological disorder that would increase seizure risk from rTMS such as stroke, brain lesions, previous neurosurgery, any history of seizure or fainting episode of unknown cause, or head trauma resulting in loss of consciousness, lasting over 30 minutes or with sequela lasting longer than one month.
- •Current meeting withdrawal criteria for alcohol: AUD participants will not meet for clinically significant alcohol withdrawal: Clinical Institute Withdrawal Assessment for Alcohol (CIWA-Ar) ≤
- •First-degree family history of epilepsy or multiple sclerosis.
- •Cardiac pacemakers, neural stimulators, implantable defibrillator, implanted medication pumps or sensors, intracardiac lines, or acute, unstable cardiac disease, with intracranial implants (e.g. aneurysm clips, shunts, stimulators, cochlear implants, or electrodes) or any other metal object in the body that precludes rTMS administration.
- •Current use of anti- or pro-convulsive action.
- •Use of benzodiazepines in the last 48 hours prior to rTMS. Benzodiazepines are used during alcohol withdrawal management but then are discontinued prior to recruitment into the study. Therefore, rTMS eligible participants will not continue taking benzodiazepines.
- •Lifetime history of schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, mania.
- •History of myocardial infarction, angina, congestive heart failure, cardiomyopathy, stroke, or transient ischemic attack.
- •Pregnant or lactating women.
- •TMS contraindications.
- •Treatment center discharge date does not allow for scheduling of all 5 rTMS days
研究组 & 干预措施
AUD
Individuals receiving treatment from HHC for AUD. Participants will be asked to complete a battery of tasks at the prior to the first rTMS session and after the last rTMS session. Each rTMS eligible participant will be scheduled for 5 rTMS visits (to be completed within 2 weeks from start to finish). Each rTMS session will start with finding motor hotspot, the rTMS dose, then application of rTMS. Within AUD participants, random assignment of rTMS site (cTBS at mPFC vs iTBS at l-dlPFC) will occur in sets of 6 thus increasing rTMS site distribution even if a small sample is collected.
干预措施: repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) for AUD (Device)
OUD
Individuals receiving treatment from HHC for OUD. Participants will be asked to complete a battery of tasks at the prior to the first rTMS session and after the last rTMS session. Each rTMS eligible participant will be scheduled for 5 rTMS visits (to be completed within 2 weeks from start to finish). Each rTMS session will start with finding motor hotspot, the rTMS dose, then application of rTMS. Within OUD participants, random assignment of rTMS type (cTBS vs iTBS ) applied to l-dlPFC will occur in sets of 6 thus increasing rTMS site distribution even if a small sample is collected.
