Background: Cue-induced craving precipitates relapse in drug and alcohol use disorders. Theta burst stimulation (TBS) to the left frontal pole of the medial prefrontal cortex (MPFC) has previously been shown to reduce drinking and brain reactivity to alcohol cues. In this randomized, double-blind, sham-controlled target engagement study, we aimed to assess whether TBS has similar effects in individuals with cocaine use disorder.
