TMS follow-up study for balance changes in Parkinson’s
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This study looks at how “high-frequency TMS” (a brain stimulation treatment) may change balance in people with Parkinson’s disease over a 6-month follow-up. You may be considered if you have mild to moderate Parkinson’s, have not had TMS before, and are medically stable.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have been diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease that fits UK Parkinson’s Brain Bank criteria (idiopathic Parkinson’s).
- Your Parkinson’s symptoms are mild to moderate based on clinician scoring and your stage of disease.
- You’ve had Parkinson’s for about 2 to 5 years.
- You are medically and psychologically stable, with adequate heart function.
- You have never received any rTMS sessions before.
- You can sign a consent form.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial tests a precise form of brain stimulation (called TMS) to see if it can improve movement problems like stiffness, slowness, or tremors in people with Parkinson's disease. Participants must have a stable medication routine and no metal implants or brain surgery history.
This study tests whether repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) can help people with Parkinson's disease. You will receive rTMS and be evaluated for changes in movement and thinking.
This trial tests a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) for people with Parkinson's disease. It uses magnetic pulses to gently stimulate parts of the brain that control movement, and may help improve motor symptoms like stiffness or slowness.
This trial tests a type of brain stimulation called iTBS on an area of the brain that may help with thinking and memory problems in people with Parkinson's disease and mild cognitive impairment. If you qualify, you and your caregiver would take part in sessions and answer questions about your daily life.
This study tests whether a gentle form of brain stimulation (called prTMS) can help improve slow movement in people with Parkinson's. You would come to the Danish Research Centre for Magnetic Resonance for several sessions. The goal is to see if this non-invasive treatment can make daily tasks a bit easier.
This trial uses a type of brain stimulation (called HF-rTMS) combined with balance exercises to see if it improves balance, walking, and brain activity in people with Parkinson's disease.
