It's designed for people with treatment-resistant depression who are already on a stable antidepressant.
ErzurumAges 18–65 - NCT07251816Recruiting
How the brain creates motivation
This study looks at how your brain creates motivation by using brain scans and sometimes gentle stimulation. It is for healthy people who want to help researchers understand normal brain function.
BronAges 18–40 - NCT07233278Recruiting
Brain stimulation for anxiety after miscarriages
This study tests a non-invasive brain stimulation technique (repetitive TMS) to see if it can improve heart health and reduce anxiety in women who have had multiple pregnancy losses and struggle with anxiety. You will receive high-intensity, low-frequency magnetic pulses over a specific area of the brain involved in worry and stress.
Shenyang, LiaoningAges 18–45 - NCT07217444Recruiting
Deep TMS for depression in teens
This trial tests whether a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called deep transcranial magnetic stimulation (dTMS) can help teens with moderate to severe depression feel better. It involves wearing a special magnetic coil on the head during several sessions.
Cincinnati, OhioAges 14–18 - NCT07207239Enrolling by invitation
Brain stimulation for treatment-resistant depression
This trial is testing a type of brain stimulation therapy called theta-burst rTMS to see if it helps with depression that hasn't improved with standard treatments. It also uses brain scans to predict who might respond best.
Budapest, Pest CountyAges 18 years+ - NCT07198438Enrolling by invitation
Deep vs standard brain stimulation for depression
This trial compares two types of brain stimulation (deep vs standard theta burst stimulation) to see which works better for people with depression who haven't gotten enough help from antidepressant medication. It aims to find a more effective treatment option.
Douliu, Yunlin CountyAges 18–70 - NCT06942559Recruiting
Brain stimulation for treatment-resistant OCD
This trial tests a new type of brain stimulation (TMS) that is timed to your brain's natural rhythms, targeting a part of the brain linked to OCD. It may help people whose OCD has not improved with standard treatments.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18–65 - NCT07188376Recruiting
Using magnetic stimulation to reduce alcohol effects

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for transcranial magnetic stimulation?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 342 recruiting transcranial magnetic 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 transcranial magnetic 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 transcranial magnetic 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.
