Thalamic stimulation's effect on sleep brain waves
This trial studies how electrical stimulation in a deep brain area called the thalamus affects sleep brain waves. It may help people who already need brain recordings for medical reasons.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 5–85 - NCT07210255Recruiting
SAINT TMS for postpartum depression
This trial tests a special type of TMS (brain stimulation) called SAINT for severe depression that started around childbirth. It may help new mothers who are still within a year postpartum and have not found relief from other treatments.
Worcester, MassachusettsAges 18–45 - NCT07198542Enrolling by invitation
Vagus nerve stimulation for somatic symptom disorder
This trial tests if gentle electrical stimulation on the vagus nerve in the ear or neck can help reduce physical symptoms that are closely linked to stress. It is for adults with somatic symptom disorder who are on stable medications.
Douliu, YunlinAges 18–65 - NCT07193407Recruiting
Study of a new system for overactive bladder
This trial tests a personalized nerve stimulation system for women with overactive bladder that hasn't improved with other treatments. It aims to see if the device is safe and works well.
Kogarah, New South WalesAges 18 years+ - NCT07174973Recruiting
New balance training for better stability in MS
This study tests two new balance-training programs for people with Multiple Sclerosis. One program combines balance exercises with mild electrical stimulation on the legs, while the other uses walking exercises on a treadmill with special visual feedback. Both aim to improve balance and help your brain make new connections.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18–65 - NCT07176091Enrolling by invitation
Magnetic brain stimulation for Parkinson's disease pain
This trial tests a special type of magnetic brain stimulation (called TMS) to see if it can help with Parkinson's disease and the pain that often comes with it. You must have had Parkinson's for at least 3 years, have frequent pain, and be on stable medications.
Suzhou, JiangsuAges 40–80 - NCT07171489Recruiting
Wearable device for bowel control after spinal cord injury
This trial tests a wearable device that uses mild electrical pulses to help manage bowel function in people with spinal cord injury. It aims to improve control and quality of life.
Ann Arbor, MichiganAges 18 years+ - NCT07166289Recruiting
Ultrasound treatment for tough depression
This study uses focused ultrasound to stimulate brain circuits in people with treatment-resistant depression. It aims to see if this can help when other treatments haven't worked.
Tulsa, OklahomaAges 18–65 - NCT07161518Enrolling by invitationPhase 4
Testing focused ultrasound on the brain during sedation
This trial uses focused ultrasound to gently stimulate parts of the brain while you are under sedation. It aims to understand how this technology affects brain activity and could lead to new ways to treat brain disorders without surgery.
Palo Alto, CaliforniaAges 18–65 - NCT07116109Recruiting
Brain Stimulation Plus Therapy for Pain and PTSD
This study tests whether a brain-stimulation headband (called tDCS) combined with a proven talk therapy for PTSD can help reduce both chronic pain and PTSD symptoms. It is for adults who have had chronic pain for at least 6 months and also have PTSD.
Charleston, South CarolinaAges 21 years+ - NCT07124390Recruiting
Electroacupuncture for stubborn overactive bladder
This study tests whether electroacupuncture (a type of acupuncture with mild electrical stimulation) can help women whose overactive bladder symptoms have not responded to usual treatments. If you join, you will receive electroacupuncture sessions and be monitored to see if your symptoms improve.
London, United KingdomAges 18 years+ - NCT07111169Recruiting
Brain stimulation and attention in depression study
This study tests whether a non-invasive brain stimulation technique (called iTBS) can improve attention problems in people with major depression. If you have depression and trouble focusing, this trial might help understand a new treatment option.
Chengdu, SichuanAges 18–55 - NCT07113041Recruiting
Brain stimulation and robot balance training after stroke
This study tests if adding a gentle brain stimulation (TMS) to robot-assisted balance training helps improve balance after a stroke. It is for people who had a stroke at least 6 months ago and still have trouble with balance.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for neuromodulation?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 193 recruiting neuromodulation studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a neuromodulation trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a neuromodulation trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
