Static magnetic brain stimulation for progressive multiple sclerosis
Part of Brain & nervous system, Immune system & allergy clinical trials.
This trial studies whether a noninvasive brain stimulation approach using a static magnetic field can help people with progressive multiple sclerosis. It aims to improve progressive nerve function while keeping other treatments stable.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You can sign a written consent form for the study
- You are 18 to 65 years old
- You have primary or secondary progressive multiple sclerosis (not relapsing-remitting)
- Your mobility disability score (EDSS) is 6.5 or lower
- Your usual MS treatment (disease medicines or rehab) is unchanged for at least 6 months, and you agree not to change it during the study

This study tests two types of non-invasive brain stimulation (tSMS and tDCS) to see if they can help with symptoms like pain, fatigue, depression, or memory problems in people with various neurological conditions. If you have a condition like MS, ALS, Parkinson's, Alzheimer's, or others listed, you may be able to join.
This study tests if transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) can help reduce muscle stiffness (spasticity) and improve balance in people with multiple sclerosis. TMS uses magnetic pulses to stimulate parts of the brain.
This trial tests whether repeated non-invasive magnetic brain stimulation (TMS) can improve symptoms in people with progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP). It may help by targeting brain circuits involved in movement and balance.
This study tests a gentle, non-invasive magnetic stimulation applied to the head to see if it can slow the progression of ALS. It uses a special device that creates a static magnetic field, and researchers will also look for biomarkers in your body that may help predict how the disease will progress.
This study tests whether customized transcranial magnetic stimulation (a non-invasive technique that uses magnetic pulses to stimulate brain activity) can help improve symptoms in people with Parkinson's disease, multiple system atrophy, or progressive supranuclear palsy. The treatment is tailored to each person's brain activity patterns.
This study tests whether a gentle electrical current applied to the scalp (called tDCS) can help people with multiple sclerosis. It involves brain stimulation sessions and MRI scans to see if the treatment improves symptoms or brain function.
