  2. Study First Submitted
  • Stopped: an ongoing trial was terminated, suspended or withdrawn.
  • Notable: the trial’s plan changed such as a big move in its timeline or size, a new primary endpoint, sponsor or phase, or recruiting opened or resumed.
  • Minor: routine progress and housekeeping, such as sites added or enrollment closed.
Aim: The purpose of the study is to establish the non-inferiority of right-sided inhibitory 1 Hz stimulation compared to left-sided intermittent theta burst stimulation (iTBS) in unipolar and bipolar depression. Design: A national, non-inferiority, register-based, randomized trial, unmasked, with two treatment arms. Primary objective: The primary objective is to determine if right-sided inhibitory 1-Hz stimulation to dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) is non inferior to iTBS in treating unipolar and bipolar depression by measuring reduction in Montgomery-Åsberg Depression Rating Scale, self-assessed version (MADRS-S) from baseline to end of treatment. Secondary objectives: Include testing for differences in: * Observer rated response according to Clinical Global Impression Scale-Improvement (≥2 point reduction CGI). * Response to treatment (a decrease of 50% on MADRS-S) * Self-rated global health measured with the EuroQual-group 5 Dimensions Scale Visual Analogue Scale (EQ-5D-VAS). * Drop-out from treatment. * Stimulation site pain measured with the Numerical Rating Scales (NRS). * Adverse events. * Admission and suicides within 6 months. * New treatment course of rTMS or ECT within 6 months * Remission (score \< 11 on the MADRS-S) * Memory impairment measured with the Comprehensive Psychopathological Rating Scale (CPRS). Study population: Patients with unipolar or bipolar depression. Sample size: 350 patients. Inclusion criteria: * At least 18 years of age at the time of inclusion. * A clinical diagnosis of unipolar or bipolar depression according to ICD-10. * Acceptance of rTMS. * A Swedish personal identity number. * Capable of giving informed consent. Exclusion criteria: • If the investigator judges one of the two treatment protocols inappropriate for the patient. Inclusion time: 2025-07-01 to 2029-01-01
