Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation
"Stage 2 \[CURRENTLY ENROLLING\]:~Accelerated rTMS using continuous theta burst stimulation (cTBS) inhibitory paradigms over bilateral M1 including hand, leg, and bulbar regions outputted at 90% of resting motor threshold, using bursts of 3 pulses at 50 Hz. Bursts are repeated at 5 Hz for a total of 600, 1200, 1800, or 3600 pulses over 40 seconds, 1 minute 20 seconds, 2 minutes, or 4 minutes. ALS patients will receive rTMS bilaterally for up to 8 treatment sessions per day, delivered one per hour, over 5 days, followed by single-day maintenance treatments at a frequency of every 2 weeks for 12 weeks, then every 4 weeks for 12 weeks."
