(NASDAQ &amp; TASE: BWAY), a global leader in advanced noninvasive neurostimulation treatments for mental health disorders, announced the publication of results from a pilot study evaluating the Company’s proprietary Deep Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (Deep TMS™) technology in patients with co-occurring Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) and early-stage Alzheimer’s disease. The results were published in the peer-reviewed Journal of Geriatric Psychiatry and Neurology. The study, conducted by researchers from the Delray Center for Brain Science and the Department of Psychology at Florida Atlantic University, included 12 patients who received 36 Deep TMS sessions using BrainsWay’s H1 and H7 Coils. The treatment protocol involved stimulation of the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex with the H1 Coil, followed by stimulation of the temporal regions with the H7 Coil. The study reported an 83.3% response rate (defined as a ≥50% reduction on the Patient Health Questionnaire-9 [PHQ-9] rating scale) and a 50% remission rate (defined as a PHQ-9 score of 4 or less) in depressive symptoms following Deep TMS treatment. In addition to the clinical outcomes, researchers observed changes in brain activity using quantitative electroencephalography (QEEG), a technique that compares electrophysiological brain patterns, before and after treatment. This included a reduction of power in the delta frequency band (i.e., 0-3 Hz) in the right temporal lobe after treatment, which could suggest reduced cortical slowing – a common biological phenomenon associated with Alzeimer’s disease. In addition, an increase in alpha coherence – a measure of synchronization and functional connectivity between different brain regions – was observed between several frontal and temporal sites, suggesting an improvement upon the brain dysconnectivity often implicated in Alzheimer’s disease. “Depression in patients living with Alzheimer’s disease represents a particularly complex clinical challenge, with significant consequences for patients, caregivers, and families,” said Hadar Levy, Chief Executive Officer of BrainsWay. “The response and remission rates for depressive symptoms in this study, together with the observed changes in brain activity, provide an encouraging scientific signal that warrants further investigation. We believe this study further validates the broad potential of our Deep TMS platform to noninvasively engage clinically relevant brain networks in patients with complex neuropsychiatric conditions.” The study adds to the continuously growing body of scientific research evaluating BrainsWay’s Deep TMS technology in complex patient populations and exploring its ability to modulate brain networks involved in psychiatric and neurological disorders. Deep TMS is not FDA-cleared for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease. Additional controlled clinical research will be required to further evaluate these preliminary findings.
