About this trial

This is an interventional basic science trial for Impulse Control Disorder

Eligibility Criteria

20 Years - 65 Years (Adult, Older Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Impulse control disorders according to DSM-IV criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Other psychiatric disorders
  • Contraindication to Non-invasive brain stimulation and MRI

Sites / Locations

  • Centre Interdisciplinaire de Recherche en Réadaptation et Intégration

Arms of the Study

Arm 1

Arm 2

Arm Type

Active Comparator

Sham Comparator

Arm Label

Noninvasive brain stimulation: active

Noninvasive brain: sham

Arm Description

In active condition, subject will receive stimulation during all the 30-minute stimulation period

In sham condition, subject will receive stimulation only at the beginning and at the end of 30-minute stimulation period.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Change in decision-making from pre to post stimulation assessed with the Balloon Analogue Risk Task

Secondary Outcome Measures

Changes in brain activity assessed between before and during stimulation measured with functional magnetic resonance (fMRI)
Neural metabolites concentrations measured with magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS)
Change in Craving from pre to post stimulation assessed with a single standardized scale
