Brain stimulation for depression after mild traumatic brain injury
This trial studies a noninvasive brain treatment (rTMS) to reduce depression symptoms in people with past mild traumatic brain injury from military service. It may help by changing brain activity, while also requiring stable mental health care and regular follow-up.
Palo Alto, CaliforniaAges 18–55 - NCT06835283Recruiting
Brain stimulation for mood and behavior in Alzheimer's

Testing brain stimulation for laryngeal dystonia symptoms
This study tests whether a noninvasive brain stimulation treatment (referred to as neuromodulation, such as rTMS) can improve symptoms of laryngeal dystonia. It’s meant to see if stimulating certain brain areas can reduce how severely your voice/throat problem affects you.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 21–85 - NCT05489042Recruiting
Brain scan and rTMS study for suicidal thoughts in opioid users
This study looks at brain connectivity using an MRI scan and then treats some people with rTMS (a non-surgical brain stimulation). It’s designed for adults who use opioids and currently have active suicidal thoughts, to better understand and help those symptoms.
Houston, TexasAges 18–64 - NCT05712057Recruiting
Brain stimulation vs therapy for emotion regulation problems
This trial compares a type of brain stimulation (rTMS) to therapy to help people better manage strong emotions. You may be eligible if you have ongoing difficulties with emotion control and meet specific mood, anxiety, or related symptom criteria.
Durham, North CarolinaAges 18–55 - NCT03870672Recruiting
Brain stimulation plus hand practice for severe stroke arm weakness
This trial tests whether using noninvasive brain stimulation, along with guided hand exercises, can improve hand opening and arm function after a stroke. It may help people with severe hand weakness who still have some ability to follow instructions and move the shoulder and elbow.
Cleveland, OhioAges 18–90 - NCT07546877Recruiting
Brain Stimulation to Improve Memory After Stroke
This study tests whether a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called high-frequency repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) can help improve thinking and memory problems that occur after a stroke. If you've had a stroke in the past year and are experiencing cognitive difficulties, this trial may help restore some of your mental abilities.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for rtms stimulation?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 153 recruiting rtms stimulation 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 rtms stimulation 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 rtms stimulation 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.
