Transmagnetic Stimulation Pilot in Early Stage Alzheimer's Disease
November 7, 2023 updated by: HealthPartners Institute
A Single Arm Study of Resting State Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (Rs-fMRI)-Guided Theta Burst Stimulation (TBS) in Early-Stage Alzheimer's Disease (AD)
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative condition affecting 6.2 million individuals in the United States, resulting in an annual cost of care of $305 billion.
AD is functionally characterized by progressive degeneration of large-scale brain networks (LSBNs), including the default mode network (DMN) presumably from the deposition of amyloid plaques and neurofibrillary tangles.
Available FDA-approved medications for AD such as donepezil and memantine offer limited benefit and modest impact on quality of life.
In combination with resting state functional MRI (rs-fMRI), transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) with intermittent theta burst stimulation (iTBS) offers a non-invasive alternative to pharmacotherapy in persons with AD.
We propose a pilot trial using rs-fMRI to target dysfunctional LSBNs in early stage AD.

Arms and Interventions

Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
Experimental: Intermittent theta burst stimulation
All subjects will receive treatment with intermittent theta burst stimulation (iTBS).
There will be a total of 5 treatments over a 2-week period.
All subjects will receive iTBS to the right TGd region.
TBS treatment will also be provided for two additional sites within the large-scale brain networks (LSBNs) that is found to contain the greatest number of connectivity anomalies.
Total participation will be 10-12 weeks.

Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Change in connectivity measure of the TGd parcellations.
Time Frame: 9 weeks
|
Assessed by calculating the difference and corresponding 95% confidence interval between follow-up and baseline connectivity measures of the TGd parcellations. Range: -1 to 1. Positive values indicate areas where connectivity is higher than healthy controls from the Human Connectome Project. |
