Measure
Part 1 Active
Blinded, active repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS): Active treatments with repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) consists of treatment settings of 120% magnetic field intensity relative to the patient's resting motor threshold, at 10 pulses per second (10 Hz) for 4 seconds, with an intertrain interval of 26 seconds for a total of 75 trains per treatment session.
Part 1 Sham
Blinded, sham repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS): Active treatments with repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) consists of treatment settings of 120% magnetic field intensity relative to the patient's resting motor threshold, at 10 pulses per second (10 Hz) for 4 seconds, with an intertrain interval of 26 seconds for a total of 75 trains per treatment session.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Within 5 days after Treatment 30 or Last Treatment

Population: Terminated study. Data was not collected nor analyzed.

The Clinical Global Impression - Severity (CGI-S) is a standardized assessment utilizing a 7-point scale with which the clinician rates the severity of the subject's depressive illness at the time of assessment relative to the clinician's past experience with patients who have the same diagnosis.
