Temporal Interference treatment for moderate-to-severe depression
Part of Mental health clinical trials.
This study tests temporal interference (TI), a brain stimulation method, to treat depression. You may be a candidate if you have moderate-to-severe major depression and can follow the study schedule and safety screening.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study tests a type of brain stimulation (guided iTBS) to improve depression when standard antidepressant treatments haven’t helped. It also checks that the treatment is safe for people who can meet the study and scan safety requirements.
This study tests a new type of brain stimulation called temporal interference (TI) that uses weak electrical fields to target depression. It is for people who are not currently on medication or have been off antidepressants for at least 2 weeks.
This trial tests a non-invasive brain stimulation treatment (TIS) for teenagers aged 12–22 with depression who injure themselves without wanting to die. The goal is to reduce depression symptoms and self-injury urges.
This study uses non-invasive brain stimulation (like TMS) and EEG brain recordings to measure how the brain’s “reward” system works in people with major depression. It may help researchers understand which stimulation approaches best affect depression-related reward processing.
This trial tests a new type of brain stimulation called theta-burst stimulation to see if it helps treat depression. It is for people aged 18-50 who are currently experiencing a major depressive episode and are on a stable antidepressant regimen.
This trial tests a new type of brain stimulation called temporal interference stimulation to see if it can safely and effectively improve symptoms of bipolar depression. It may be an option for people who are not taking medication or who are willing to stop their current medication for a short time.
