ipRGC jako potencjalny biomarker do przewidywania odpowiedzi na leczenie przezczaszkową stymulacją magnetyczną w ciężkim zaburzeniu depresyjnym (BRIGHT)
Oświetlając depresję: ipRGC jako potencjalny biomarker do przewidywania odpowiedzi na leczenie przezczaszkową stymulację magnetyczną w ciężkim zaburzeniu depresyjnym
This research explores the potential of retinal ganglion cells (RGCs), particularly intrinsically photosensitive RGCs (ipRGCs), as biomarkers for predicting response to transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) in treatment-resistant depression (TRD). We also aim to assess the impact of TMS treatment on RGCs and ipRGCs in TRD patients, investigating associations with clinical improvements and cognitive status. A clinical trial involving 44 patients with treatment-resistant depression (TRD) will be conducted. All participants will receive rTMS targeting the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC). Data will be collected pre- and post-intervention, as well as at a 2-month follow-up, using multiple outcome measures, including the post-illumination pupil response (PIPR). The project seeks to confirm the effectiveness of TMS and the potential of RGCs/ipRGCs as predictors of treatment response, thereby facilitating the development of personalized treatment strategies for TRD patients undergoing rTMS therapy.

Eksperymentalny: iTBS
iTBS Group (n=44) will receive high-frequency (50 Hz) left-side DLPFC iTBS (120% RMT stimulation intensity; 50 Hz frequency; 2s on and 8 s off; 600 pulses/session; total duration of 3 minutes). Treatment comprised 20 sessions in total, which consisted of once-daily sessions (on weekdays). |
Each participant's resting motor threshold (RMT) will be determined by visual observation in accordance with standard clinical practice. Intermittent theta-burst stimulation (iTBS) will be delivered over the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) using these parameters: stimulation intensity 120% RMT; bursts at 50 Hz; 2 s on and 8 s off; 600 pulses per session; total stimulation time approximately 3 minutes per session. Stimulation will be delivered using a MagPro X100 stimulator with MagOption, equipped with a B70 butterfly-shaped coil with static cooling (MagVenture, Denmark). Treatment will comprise 20 sessions, delivered once daily on weekdays.
