Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
- Veterans of Post-9/11 military conflicts
- with diagnosis of PTSD based on CAPS-5 related to Post-9/11 military combat
Exclusion Criteria:
- current enrollment in an acute experimental treatment for PTSD or trauma-focused psychotherapy treatment
- PTSD-inducing trauma exposure occurring within the last 3 months prior to pre-enrollment evaluation
- history of epilepsy or seizure disorder, a history of major head trauma,
- any neurologic condition likely to increase risk of seizures,
- brain tumors,
- moderate to severe substance use disorder in last 3 months or any substance use that puts the participant at increased risk or significant impairment
- stroke, and blood vessel abnormalities in the brain,
- dementia,
- Parkinson's disease, Huntington's chorea, or multiple sclerosis
- a high suicide risk
- a lifetime history of psychotic disorder or bipolar disorder
- inability to stop taking any medication that significantly lowers the seizure threshold
- pregnant or nursing
- metal fragments in the head, or any metal objects in or near the head that cannot be safely removed
- We will screen for a history of traumatic brain injury and exclude potential participants from the study if they have a history of severe TBI or are at high risk for seizures.
- history of seizures
- non-English speakers because not all of the screening forms, questionnaires, and tests are available in any language except for English
- cardiac pacemaker, implanted medication pumps of any sort that would increase the risk of rTMS
- any current medical condition that could preclude being able to safely participate in TMS treatment,
- use of prescription medication or illegal substances that lower the seizure threshold

5. Study Description
Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to examine the benefits of combining repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (rTMS) coupled with Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) in treating combat-related Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) symptoms. The study will also examine change in depression, psychosocial functioning, and neurophysiological (i.e., electroencephalography and magnetic resonance images) measures.
Detailed Description
Using three treatment arms, the study will examine Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) symptom reduction when (1) 1 Hz (hertz) repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) to the right dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (rDLPFC) is administered prior to each of 12 Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) sessions compared to when (2) sham rTMS is administered to the rDLPFC is administered prior to each of 12 CPT sessions and to when (3) 1 Hz rTMS is delivered to rDLPFC alone over 12 sessions.
Veterans with combat-related PTSD will be randomly assigned to one of the three treatment arms. Primary outcome PTSD symptom severity measures, secondary neuropsychological, electroencephalography (EEG), and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) outcome measures, and prescreening assessments for study contraindicators will be collected prior to being assigned to a treatment arm (i.e., baseline).
Primary outcome PTSD symptom severity measures and secondary neuropsychological outcome measures will be collected twice within the span of the treatment sessions (i.e., sessions 5 and 9) and at three times following treatment competition (i.e., 1-month, 6-months, and 12-months). EEG also will be collected at the 1-month, 6-month, and 12-month assessments, and MRI will be collected at the 6-month and 12-month assessments.

Model Description
Participants will be randomly assigned to one of three treatment arms: (1) 1 Hz (hertz) repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) to the right dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (rDLPFC) coupled with Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), (2) sham rTMS coupled with CPT, or (3) 1 Hz rTMS to the rDLPFC alone.
Masking
ParticipantCare ProviderOutcomes Assessor
Masking Description
Cognitive Processing Therapists will be blind to the treatment arm to which the participants are assigned.
Baseline and outcome measure neuropsychological assessments will be conducted by an independent, blinded evaluator who is not part of the treatment team.
Electroencephalography and magnetic resonance imaging data will be collected by technicians who are blinded to the arm to which the participants are assigned.
Technicians administering repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) will be blind to whether they are using an active or sham coil and to the treatment arm to which the participants are assigned. The coils are identical and will be setup by a different technician.
Participants assigned to the 1 Hz rTMS coupled with Cognitive Processing Therapy or sham rTMS coupled with CPT will be blind as to whether they are receiving active or sham rTMS.
Participants receiving rTMS only will not be blind to their group assignment.

Other Intervention Name(s)
1 Hz repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation
Intervention Description
A Magstim Rapid2 Stimulator repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) device will be used to deliver 1 hertz (Hz) stimulation to right dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (rDLPFC) at 110% of a participant's rTMS motor threshold. The device passes electric current through a coil generating an alternating magnetic field. When positioned over the skull, the changing magnetic field causes electromagnetic inducted current flow in brain regions subjacent to the coil. Magnetic pulses (1.5-2.0 Tesla) lasting 100-300 microseconds at 1 Hz will be used.
Motor threshold will be defined by the TMS intensity to right motor region required to induce visually perceptible movement of the contralateral abductor pollicus brevis 50 percent of the time.

Other Intervention Name(s)
sham repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation
Intervention Description
A Magstim Rapid2 Stimulator repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) device will be paired with sham coil. The sham coil will induce electrical current flow in the tissue above the skull but will not induce current flow in brain tissue. The sham coil will be placed over the right prefrontal scalp region to target current flow in rDLPFC. Magnetic pulses lasting for 100-300 microseconds at 1 Hz will be used.
For consistency across the rTMS conditions, motor threshold in the sham condition also will be determined by positioning the active rTMS coil over the right motor region and identifying the stimulation intensity required to induce visually perceptible movement of the contralateral abductor pollicus brevis 50 percent of the time.
