This trial aims at testing a new intensive, personalized functional targeting, transcranial magnetic stimulation technique for elderly patients (aged ≥ 65 years) suffering from a current treatment resistant depressive episode to at least one antidepressant, and suffering from significant secondary cognitive impairment.
The intervention will be based on an accelerated neuromodulation technique using intermittent theta bursts (aiTBS) guided by a personalised funcitonal target within the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC), using the SAINT® technology, which was recently cleared by the FDA.
