BrainsWay Announces Publication of Study Data on Accelerated Deep Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (Deep TMS™) for Depression

Peer-reviewed Results Suggest Accelerated Deep TMS Outcomes Comparable to Standard Treatment Protocols

BURLINGTON, Mass. and JERUSALEM, Oct. 16, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- BrainsWay Ltd. (NASDAQ & TASE: BWAY) (“BrainsWay” or the “Company”), a global leader in advanced noninvasive neurostimulation treatments for mental health disorders, today announced the publication of new real-world post-marketing data demonstrating the efficacy of accelerated Deep Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (Deep TMS™) for the treatment of major depressive disorder (MDD). The compelling results were published in the peer-reviewed journal, Psychiatry Research, in an article titled, "Real-World Efficacy and Safety of Various Accelerated Deep TMS Protocols for Major Depression."

Deep TMS utilizes specially designed H–Coils to stimulate deep and broad cortical regions associated with depression. The standard FDA-cleared Deep TMS protocol involves one treatment session per day, five days a week for 4 weeks, followed by a maintenance period.   However, there has been recent interest in “accelerated” dosing schedules which involve multiple sessions each day to allow for quicker overall treatment time. Data collected using this approach to treat depression was compiled from clinical sites and analyzed in this study. Key findings from this post-marketing study included:

• Accelerated Deep TMS led to an 80% response rate and a 51% remission rate across all dosing schedules, using the most rated scale (HDRS, MADRS, PHQ-9, BDI-II).
• There was no statistical difference in outcomes seen between the various accelerated dosing schedules, which varied between 2, 3, 5 or 10 Deep TMS sessions per day.
• Subjects undergoing protocols involving more than 2 sessions per day responded and/or remitted typically within 3-5 days, and the durability of treatment was substantial.

“We are firmly dedicated to identifying innovative solutions for various mental health disorders with the goal of transforming lives,” said Colleen Hanlon, Ph.D., Vice President of Medical and Clinical Affairs of BrainsWay. “An accelerated protocol could potentially work better with some patients’ schedules. While additional research is necessary to fully understand the benefits of accelerated protocols, these initial results are certainly promising as they suggest outcomes can be achieved which are comparable to those resulting from longer, traditional protocols.”

BrainsWay Deep TMS is not currently FDA-cleared for accelerated depression treatments. However, these preliminary results could be leveraged to support efforts to expand current labeling for Deep TMS.

“This publication underscores our commitment to scientific excellence and our determination to enhance the quality of life for individuals battling depression,” said Aron Tendler, MD, Chief Medical Officer of BrainsWay. “While TMS has been around for nearly 40 years, we continue to look for ways to optimize the delivery of our Deep TMS therapy and restore hope for the many patients who have not responded to first-line treatments. We intend to further investigate the potential efficacy of accelerated Deep TMS in the treatment of MDD, and look forward to sharing those results.”

About Major Depressive Disorder and Anxious Depression
Major depressive disorder (MDD) is a common and debilitating form of depression characterized by physiological, emotional, and cognitive symptoms. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), depression affects approximately 264 million people worldwide, and the U.S. National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) estimates that 21 million adults in the United States suffer from an MDD episode within a given year. Common symptoms of MDD include loss of interest, depressed mood, reduced energy, disturbed sleep, and changes in appetite. 60-90% of depression patients also exhibit comorbid moderate to severe anxiety, a condition commonly referred to as anxious depression. These anxiety symptoms include nervousness, feelings of panic, increased heart rate, rapid breathing, sweating, insomnia, trembling, and difficulty focusing or thinking clearly. The economic burden in the United States for major depressive disorder totaled $326 billion prior to the recent COVID pandemic.
