TMS-EEG Biomarkers for Chronic Pain

Study Overview

This clinical trial focuses on testing the efficacy of different digital interventions to promote re-engagement in cancer-related long-term follow-up care for adolescent and young adult (AYA) survivors of childhood cancer.

Description

In this study the investigators aim to assess the correlates of neurophysiological measures (measurement of brain magnetically evoked response) using DELPHI system. The DELPHI system device is a computerized, electromechanical medical device that produces and delivers non-invasive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) fields to induce electrical currents directed at regions of the cerebral cortex and records the resultant Electroencephalogram (EEG) brain electrophysiological response. DELPHI analyzes the TMS Evoked Potential (TEP) and produces quantitative output measures. Objectives include: * To use TMS-evoked EEG measures of brain function in patients with chronic pain using the QuantalX DELPHI system to predict patient specific pain diagnoses using machine learning classification methods. * To evaluate longitudinal associations between TMS-evoked EEG measures and ratings of chronic pain. * To monitor associations between TMS-evoked EEG biomarkers and therapy success for three different classes of medications.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Ages Eligible for Study:18 Years to 80 Years
Sexes Eligible for Study:ALL
Accepts Healthy Volunteers:No
Standard Ages:ADULT, OLDER_ADULT
Inclusion CriteriaExclusion Criteria
  1. * Male and female participants aged 18-80 with a diagnosis of chronic pain agreeing to participate in all study procedures. To maximize accrual and phenotypic variability in the sample for planned analyses, we include patients meeting ICD-11 criteria for chronic pain, a duration-based parent code for several common, clinically relevant pain conditions. Patients must have pain lasting more than 6 months.
  1. * Neurologic disorders: Dementia, Severe neurocognitive disorder (MoCA \< 22), Severe aphasia, Seizure disorder, certain structural brain lesions (e.g., intracranial mass lesions, neoplasms, hydrocephalus, sequelae of meningitis, MS plaques), cerebral palsy, or complete paralysis
  2. * Major psychiatric disorders (e.g., Bipolar Disorder, Schizophrenia), suicidal thoughts
  3. * Subjects with any metallic brain implant or fragments (such as shunt, pacemaker, clips, coils, bullet fragments, cochlear implants).
  4. * Subjects with any implanted devices activated or controlled by physiological signals and/or ferromagnetic or other magnetic sensitive metals implanted in the head or anywhere within 12 inches/30 cm from the stimulation coil.
  5. * Subjects using medications that may alter electroencephalography (EEG) waveforms, including ketamine and benzodiazepines, are eligible to participate, but will be asked to hold these medications 4-8 hours prior to the study visits, as appropriate.
  6. * Pregnant or breastfeeding woman.
