Summary

This study evaluates an accelerated schedule of theta-burst stimulation using a transcranial magnetic stimulation device for treatment-resistant depression. In this open label study, all participants will receive accelerated theta-burst stimulation.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

  • Male or female, 22 to 80 years of age.
  • Able to provide informed consent.
  • Diagnosed with Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) and currently experiencing a Major Depressive Episode (MDE).
  • Participants may currently be on a stable and adequate dose of an antidepressant therapy but the medication must remain stable throughout study enrollment.
  • Participants may also have a history of intolerance to antidepressant medications. These patients with the intolerance history will not be required to be currently taking an antidepressant medication.
  • Meet the threshold on the total HAMD17 score of >/=20 at both screening and baseline visits (Day -5/-14 and Day 0).
  • Meet the threshold on the total MADRS score of >/=20 at both screening and baseline visits (Day -5/-14 and Day 0).
  • Meet the threshold on the total BDI-II score of >/=20 at both screening and baseline visits (Day -5/-14 and Day 0).
  • In good general health, as ascertained by medical history.
  • If female, a status of non-childbearing potential or use of an acceptable form of birth control.
  • Concurrent hypnotic therapy (e.g., with zolpidem, zaleplon, melatonin, or trazodone) will be allowed if the therapy has been stable for at least 4 weeks prior to screening and if it is expected to remain stable.
  • History of ECT intolerance is permitted.

Exclusion Criteria

  • Female of childbearing potential who is not willing to use one of the specified forms of birth control during the study.
  • Female that is pregnant or breastfeeding.
  • Total HAMD score of < 20 at the screen or baseline visits.
  • Total MADRS score of < 20 at the screen or baseline visits.
  • Total BDI-II score of < 20 at the screen or baseline visits.
  • Current diagnosis of a Substance Use Disorder (Abuse or Dependence, as defined by DSM-IV-TR), with the exception of nicotine dependence.
  • Current diagnosis of Axis I disorders other than Dysthymic Disorder, Generalized Anxiety Disorder, Social Anxiety Disorder, Panic Disorder, Agoraphobia, or Specific Phobia (unless one of these is comorbid and clinically unstable, and/or the focus of the participant's treatment for the past six months or more).
  • History of schizophrenia or schizoaffective disorders, or any history of psychotic symptoms in the current or previous depressive episodes.
  • Any Axis I or Axis II Disorder, which at screening is clinically predominant to their MDD or has been predominant to their MDD at any time within six months prior to screening.
  • Has a clinically significant abnormality on the screening examination that might affect safety, study participation, or confound interpretation of study results.
  • Participation in any clinical trial with an investigational drug or device within the past month or concurrent to study participation.
  • Any current or past history of any physical condition which in the investigator's opinion might put the subject at risk or interfere with study results interpretation.
  • Positive screening on the urine test for drugs of abuse at screening: cocaine, amphetamines, barbiturates, opiates.
  • Current (or chronic) use of opiates.
  • History of epilepsy.
  • History of shrapnel or metal in the head or skull.
  • History of cardiovascular disease or cardiac event.
  • History of OCD.
  • History of autism spectrum disorder.
  • History of rTMS exposure
