Brief Summary: This study aims to investigate the clinical efficacy of continuous theta burst stimulation cTBS on the right DLPFC as an add-on treatment in bipolar depression The study consists of three phases

Phase 1 Bipolar depressed patients will be selected by a certified psychiatrist who will administer semi-structured clinical interviews MINI-Plus 500 HRSD-17 The presence of exclusion criteria will be evaluated Eligible patients will undergo MRI brain imaging for TMS neuronavigation

Phase 2 Baseline clinical cognitive and psychomotor assessments will take place Patients will also undergo blood samples for laboratory and research assessments

TBS involves applying triple-pulse 50 Hz bursts given at a rate of 5 Hz uninterrupted trains 1 Patients will be treated with in total 20 continuous Theta Burst Stimulation cTBS session 900 pulses per session over the right dorsolateral prefrontal cortex which will be spread over 4 days A stimulation intensity of 100 of the subjects resting motor threshold rMT of the right abductor pollicis brevis muscle will used

Patients will be randomized to receive either the real cTBS or sham treatment Sham stimulation will be applied with a sham coil The sham coil produces identical sounds but is not associated with a stimulus sensation compared to the coil delivering real stimulation cTBS The investigators expect that real cTBS treatment and not sham will result in a significant and clinical meaningful response

Phase 3 Two post-treatment assessment moments will take place respectively 3 max 4 days and 10 max 11 days after the last treatment day The assessments are the same clinical cognitive and psychomotor assessments as in phase 2
