STOP-TIC Study: Strengthening Tourette Treatment OPtions Using TMS to Improve CBIT
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation and Comprehensive behavioral intervention for Tourette Syndrome. Completed, enrolled 3 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The investigator will apply 16 sessions of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) over 4 consecutive days for adult patients suffering from Tourette's Syndrome. Following rTMS, patients will undergo 8 sessions of Comprehensive Behavioral Intervention for Tics (CBIT) over 10 weeks via telemedicine. Clinical improvement in tic severity will be the primary outcome measure. Secondary outcome measures including underlying physiological effects will be measured via functional magnetic resonance imaginge (fMRI), high-density electroencephalograhy (HD-EEG), and TMS.
Study Details
Timeline
Interventions
rTMS will be delivered using a MagStim Super Rapid2 TMS therapy system.
Patients will receive CBIT with a therapist trained in CBIT. Each session will last about an hour and will be delivered remotely via telemedicine. Sessions will be tailed to the patient's individual needs.
