Testing an Accelerated TMS Protocol for Methamphetamine Use Disorder

Part of paid clinical trials in Aurora, Colorado.

Study ID
NCT06320366
Status
Recruiting

Conditions

  • Methamphetamine Use Disorder

Eligibility Criteria

ALL
Age
21 Years - 65 Years
Healthy Volunteers
Not accepted

Interventions

  • Sham TMS — DEVICE
    The TMS Cool-B65 A/P coil on its placebo side delivers electrical stimulation to the scalp (e.g., mimicking sensations associated with real stimulation) but does not provide magnetic stimulation to the targeted cortical structure.
  • Active TMS — DEVICE
    The TMS Cool-B65 A/P coil delivers magnetic stimulation to targeted cortical structure.

Study Details

The investigators will evaluate the effects of an accelerated Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) protocol of the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) for moderate to severe methamphetamine use disorder. This is a randomized parallel group design to assess feasibility and safety, evaluate efficacy (use, craving) and identify magnetic resonance imaging (resting state and cue craving) associated with group/outcomes.

Arms

  • Placebo Comparator: Sham TMS
    Participants have baseline assessments/evaluation, are admitted to the inpatient research unit, randomized via permuted block design to 5 days of sham TMS, and then have weekly study visits for the next 12 weeks.
  • Experimental: Active TMS
    Participants have baseline assessments/evaluation, are admitted to the inpatient research unit, randomized via permuted block design to 5 days of active TMS, and then have weekly study visits for the next 12 weeks.

Primary Outcome Measure

Tolerability [ Time Frame: 5 days ]
