Evaluation of NeoSync EEG Synchronized TMS For the Treatment of Major Depressive Episode in Bipolar Disorder and Associated Neural Response: An Open Label Trial
This study is designed to evaluate the safety and preliminary efficacy of synchronized
transcranial magnetic stimulation (sTMS) using the NeoSync EEG Synchronized TMS device (NEST)
in subjects with Bipolar Disorder type I in a Major Depressive Episode. This is an open label
study in which subjects will receive treatment 5 days per week for 6 weeks.

in subjects with Bipolar Disorder type I in a Major Depressive Episode. This is an open label

Inclusion Criteria: Subjects must meet all of the following inclusion criteria to qualify
for enrollment into the study:
1. 18 - 70 years of age;
2. DSM-5 primary diagnosis of Bipolar Disorder type 1 (with a documented past manic
episode), currently in a Major Depressive Episode by diagnostic criteria elicited by
structured clinical interview (SCID-5-RV);
3. MADRS score ≥ 20;
4. Duration of current episode >4 weeks
5. YMRS score ≤ 12;
6. baseline EEG of sufficient quality for quantitative analysis processing;
7. willing and able to adhere to the intensive treatment schedule and all required study
visits;
8. currently on adequate dose of mood stabilizer with significant evidence base or FDA
approval as antimanic or for maintenance therapy of bipolar disorder (e.g, valproic
acid/divalproex, carbamazepine, lithium, aripiprazole, ziprasidone, risperidone,
quetiapine, olanzapine, asenapine, haloperidol, chlorpromazine, paliperidone,
cariprazine).
Exclusion Criteria: Subjects will be excluded from study participation if one of the
following exclusion criteria applies:
1. unable or unwilling to give informed consent;
2. diagnosed with current primary psychotic disorder (rather than BD);
3. diagnosed with current mania or hypomanic mood episode;
4. history of moderate to severe substance use disorder within the past 6 months (except
nicotine and caffeine);
5. currently being treated with a stimulant;
6. clinically defined major neurological disorder; including, but not limited to, seizure
disorder and history of loss of consciousness due to head injury for greater than 10
minutes, or with documented evidence of brain injury;
7. increased risk of seizure for any reason, including diagnosis of increased
intracranial pressure, comorbid neurological disorder, use of certain medications,
highly unstable use of alcohol or benzodiazepines;
8. initiation of new antidepressant treatments (new medication, new device-based
stimulation, or new psychotherapy) within 6 weeks prior to study baseline;
9. active suicidal intent or plan as detected on screening assessments, or in the
Investigator's opinion, is likely to attempt suicide within the next six months;
10. presence of implanted cardiac pacemakers, implanted medication pumps, or intracardiac
lines;
11. intracranial implant (e.g., aneurysm clips, shunts, stimulators, cochlear implants,
stents, or electrodes) or any other metal object within or near the head (excluding
the mouth), which cannot be safely removed;
12. clinically significant unstable medical condition;
13. if female: pregnant, not using medically acceptable means of birth control, or
currently breastfeeding;
14. other condition, which in the judgment of the Investigator could prevent the subject
from completion of the study;
15. for participants in the MRI study: ferromagnetic metal implant or other
contraindication to imaging in a 3 Tesla MRI;
16. past treatment with TMS therapy.
