NCT06357104

Brief Summary

Apart from electroencephalogram biofeedback and electrical brain stimulation adopted for maintenance treatment, the study utilizes ultra-low frequency transcranial magnetic stimulation (ULF-TMS) for initial γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) stimulation. The cocktail therapy starts after the primary efficacy endpoint, and concomitant therapy is adopted throughout the study.
