March 15, 2018 updated by: Zhujiang Hospital

A Clinical Control Study of rTMS Personalized Precision Treatment of Post-stroke Depression Based on Mechanism of Emotional Circuit Imbalance

This is a multicenter, randomized trial aims to reveal the efficacy and safety of Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) individualized therapy based on the 'emotional loop destabilization' mechanism of PSD .One hundred and twenty participants will be recruited from three centers and randomized with a 1:1 ratio to receive "Personalized" rTMS treatment or traditional rTMS treatment in addition to routine antidepressant treatments.The data of neuropsychological tests and MRI will be collected at 0, 2，4 and 8 weeks after the commencement of the treatment.

Detailed Description

This is a multicenter, randomized trial aims to reveal the efficacy and safety of rTMS individualized therapy based on the 'emotional loop destabilization' mechanism of PSD .One hundred and twenty participants will be recruited from three centers and randomized with a 1:1 ratio to receive "Personalized" rTMS treatment or traditional rTMS treatment in addition to routine antidepressant treatments.

Based on inclusion and exclusion criteria, after stroke depression (post-stroke depression, PSD) cases were collected and randomized into two groups: "individualized" rTMS+ drug treatment group and traditional rTMS plus traditional drug treatment group. The main indicators were the effective rate of treatment.Based on inclusion and exclusion criteria, after stroke depression (post-stroke depression, PSD) cases were collected and randomized into two groups: "individualized" rTMS+ drug treatment group and traditional rTMS plus traditional drug treatment group. The main indicators were the effective rate of treatment. The primary outcome is the measurement of 24-item Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HAMD-24) scores, the secondary outcomes include National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS), Activities of Daily Living Scale (ADLs),self-rating anxiety scale(SAS). The record of the adverse reactions and sequelae during treatment and follow-up, with a view to providing a better clinical method for the treatment of PSD.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
response rate
Time Frame: Before treatment.1week, 2weeks, 4weeks, 8weeks after treatment
Compare the HAMD-24 scores from baseline to the end of the treatment.the response to treatment is defined as at least a 30% reduction of the HAMD-24 total score with a final HAMD-24 score. The score decreased by more than 50% for the treatment of good results.The response rate is defined as the percentage of number of response.
Before treatment.1week, 2weeks, 4weeks, 8weeks after treatment

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Neuropsychological tests results of SAS
Time Frame: Before treatment.1week, 2weeks, 4weeks, 8weeks after treatment
Get the change of the result of self-rating anxiety scale (SAS) by Comparing the change of SAS scores from baseline to the end of the treatment in each group.
Before treatment.1week, 2weeks, 4weeks, 8weeks after treatment
Neuropsychological tests results of ADLs
Time Frame: Before treatment.1week, 2weeks, 4weeks, 8weeks after treatment
Get the change of the result of Activities of Daily Living Scale (ADLs) by Comparing the change of ADLs scores from baseline to the end of the treatment in each group.
