rTMS pro bažení při poruše užívání metamfetaminu

21. září 2026 aktualizováno: Brandon Cornejo MD, PhD, Oregon Health and Science University

Využití opakované transmagnetické stimulace k zacílení bažení při poruše užívání metamfetaminu

The primary aim of this project is to use a randomized single-blind sham-controlled study to investigate if high frequency repetitive transmagnetic stimulation (HF-rTMS) can modulate cue-induced craving in adult methamphetamine (METH) users. The investigators hypothesize that HF-rTMS directed at left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) will result in a reduction in craving for METH compared to sham-controlled rTMS in adults with methamphetamine use disorder (MUD) as evidenced by validated measures of METH craving. Neurobiologically, the investigators anticipate rTMS mediated stimulation of the DLPFC could result in inhibition of cue-induced craving through potential disruption of involved circuitry. The current project proposes that participants who are recently abstinent from METH will be randomized into four experimental groups to provide two rTMS conditions (real versus sham) and two picture cues conditions (METH versus neutral). The experiment will have an induction phase where each subject will receive 10 daily treatments within 2 weeks. Just before each rTMS/sham session participants will be shown visual cues (METH or neutral). Participants will then undergo a maintenance phase for an additional month with assessments to evaluate craving and relapse. Urine samples for urine drug screening (UDS) will be collected at screening day and on days 1, 5 and 10. Just before each rTMS/sham session participants will be shown visual cues (METH and neutral). VAS craving scores will be assessed before and after picture presentation and after the rTMS/sham session. Before the first and 10th treatment session, participants were evaluated by the the Stimulant Craving Questionnaire (STCQ) and the Severity of Dependence Scale (SDS) questionnaires. Participants will then undergo a maintenance phase for an additional month. During the first week of maintenance, three rTMS/sham sessions will be administered. During each of the following 3 weeks, one rTMS/sham session will be given per week. As with the induction phase, urine samples will be collected for screening and STCQ and the SDS questionnaires will be completed at each maintenance session. To evaluate the long-term effects of the rTMS treatment, the investigators plan on contacting participants 6 months after treatment termination for all subjects who completed the 10 treatment sessions. During that phone conversation, craving and relapse will again be assessed.

Experimentální: Treatment rTMS + meth pictures

Participants in this group will receive real repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation treatments. Before each rTMS session they will be exposed to a series of methamphetamine-related pictures to evaluate response to methamphetamine visual cues while receiving real rTMS treatments. This group will be referred to as real METH (RM).

A real magnet will be used during rTMS treatments, which will look identical to the sham magnet. The participants and treatment facilitator will be blinded to which magnet will be used. High frequency repetitive transmagnetic stimulation (rTMS) will be directed at left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) during 10 daily treatments within two weeks then 6 more treatments during the following month.

Popis opatření
Časové okno
Effect of rTMS directed at left DLPFC on craving for methamphetamine as assessed by the Severity of Dependence Scale.
Časové okno: 6 weeks

The Severity of Dependence Scale (SDS) is a 5-item questionnaire that provides a score indicating the severity of dependence on methamphetamine. Each of the five items is scored on a 4-point scale (0-3). The total score is obtained through the addition of the 5-item ratings and will range from 0 to 15. The higher the score the higher the level of dependence. Pre and post differences in craving will be assessed.

6 weeks
Effect of rTMS directed at left DLPFC on craving for methamphetamine as assessed by a Visual Analog Scale (VAS).
Časové okno: 6 weeks

The visual analogue scale (VAS) is a fixed-length horizontal line on which the participant draws a line between the two anchors of "no cravings at all" and "most intense craving imaginable". The distance between the "no cravings at all" anchor and the participants line is measured and reported as a value between 0 and 100. The higher the value, the more intense the participants cravings are. Pre and post differences in craving will be assessed.

6 weeks
Effect of rTMS directed at left DLPFC on craving for methamphetamine as assessed by the Stimulant Craving Questionnaire (STCQ).
Časové okno: 6 weeks

The Stimulant Craving Questionnaire-Brief (STCQ) is a 10-item self-report measure that assesses current craving for methamphetamine, using a seven-point scale, with answers ranging from 0 ("strongly disagree") to 6 ("strongly agree"). A composite score is generated for each participant by averaging the responses over all 10 questions. The scores can range from 0 to 6. The higher the composite score, the stronger the current craving. Pre and post differences in craving will be assessed.

Effect of craving for methamphetamine on relapse status after rTMS directed at left DLPFC.
Časové okno: 5 months

Relapse will be determined by self-report and/or positive urine drug screens.

5 months
Effect of cue type (methamphetamine versus neutral) on methamphetamine craving after rTMS treatment.
Časové okno: 6 weeks

A composite craving score will be generated by adding each of the three craving measure scores (Severity of Dependence, Visual Analog Scale, and Stimulant Craving Questionnaire) for each participant who received real rTMS treatments. The composite score can range from 0 to 121, where 0 indicates no cravings for methamphetamine and 121 is the strongest possible cravings for methamphetamine. Pre and post differences in craving will be compared between participants who were exposed to methamphetamine cues before each session and those who were exposed to neutral cues.
