Safety and Feasibility of FUS Next Generation Dome Helmet (NGDH) to Perform Neuromodulation in Patients With Treatment Refractory Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD)

10 juillet 2026 mis à jour par: Dr. Nir Lipsman, Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre

Assessment of Safety and Feasibility of FUS Next Generation Dome Helmet (NGDH) to Perform Neuromodulation in Patients With Treatment Refractory Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD)

This study evaluates the safety, feasibility, and preliminary efficacy of focused ultrasound (FUS) neuromodulation delivered using the Next Generation Dome Helmet (NGDH) in participants with treatment-refractory obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). Participants will undergo two study sessions, four weeks apart, involving active FUS neuromodulation targeting nodes of the cortico-striato-thalamo-cortical (CTSC) circuit. Outcomes include adverse events, changes in OCD symptom severity, and quality of life.

Armes et Interventions

Groupe de participants / Bras
Intervention / Traitement
Expérimental: Focused Ultrasound Neuromodulation
Focused Ultrasound Neuromodulation: Participants will receive two sessions of Magnetic Resonance-guided focused ultrasound neuromodulation targeting regions within the cortical-striatal-thalamic circuit (CSTC) implicated in treatment-resistant depression. Treatments will be spaced four weeks apart. All participants will receive the same intervention and will be followed for 4 weeks post-treatment to evaluate clinical outcomes, adverse events, and depression symptoms.
Dispositif: Casque de dôme de prochaine génération (NGDH)
Les participants recevront deux séances de neuromodulation échographique focalisée par une résonance magnétique, espacées de quatre semaines d'intervalle, en utilisant le dispositif de casque de dôme de prochaine génération. Les traitements cibleront les régions du circuit CSTC identifiées par des analyses d'IRM avancées. Chaque session comprendra des évaluations de prétraitement, des soniques précises des structures cérébrales profondes, une surveillance de la sécurité en temps réel et une imagerie post-traitement.

Change in Obsessive-Compulsive Symptom Severity Measured by the Yale-Brown Obsessive Compulsive Scale (Y-BOCS)
Délai: Assessments will be conducted at baseline; 24 hours after each treatment; at 1 and 2 weeks after each treatment; and 4 weeks after the second treatment.
Evaluate the effectiveness of FUS Neuromodulation in reducing obsessive-compulsive symptom severity using the Yale-Brown Obsessive Compulsive Scale (Y-BOCS). The Y-BOCS is a clinician-administered scale assessing the severity of obsessive-compulsive symptoms. Total scores range from 0 to 40, with higher scores indicating greater symptom severity (0-7 subclinical, 8-15 mild, 16-23 moderate, 24-31 severe, and 32-40 extreme).

Délai: Assessments will be conducted at baseline; 24 hours after each treatment; at 1 and 2 weeks after each treatment; and 4 weeks after the second treatment.
The Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI) is a 21-item self-report scale assessing the severity of anxiety symptoms. Total scores range from 0 to 63, with higher scores indicating greater anxiety severity (0-7 minimal, 8-15 mild, 16-25 moderate, and 26-63 severe anxiety). Change from baseline will be evaluated at each assessment time point.
Assessments will be conducted at baseline; 24 hours after each treatment; at 1 and 2 weeks after each treatment; and 4 weeks after the second treatment.
Change in Anxiety Symptoms as Measured by the Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7 (GAD-7)
Délai: Assessments will be conducted at baseline; 24 hours after each treatment; at 1 and 2 weeks after each treatment; and 4 weeks after the second treatment.
The GAD-7 is a 7-item self-report questionnaire used to assess generalized anxiety symptoms. Total scores range from 0 to 21, with higher scores indicating greater anxiety severity. Scores of 5, 10, and 15 represent commonly used thresholds for mild, moderate, and severe anxiety, respectively. Change from baseline will be evaluated at each assessment time point.
Assessments will be conducted at baseline; 24 hours after each treatment; at 1 and 2 weeks after each treatment; and 4 weeks after the second treatment.
Change in Patient-Reported Outcomes Using Likert Scales (1-9)
Délai: Assessments will be conducted at baseline; 24 hours after each treatment; at 1 and 2 weeks after each treatment; and 4 weeks after the second treatment.
A brief set of 1-9 Likert scales will be used to assess patient-reported symptoms and subjective experiences. Scores range from 1 to 9, with higher scores indicating greater symptom severity or impact. Change from baseline will be evaluated at each assessment time point.
Assessments will be conducted at baseline; 24 hours after each treatment; at 1 and 2 weeks after each treatment; and 4 weeks after the second treatment.
