Testing rTMS to help memory in Alzheimer’s
Part of Brain & nervous system, Mental health clinical trials.
This study tests whether a brain stimulation treatment called rTMS can improve symptoms in people with Alzheimer’s disease. It mainly looks at people with mild to moderate dementia and checks whether results differ based on how the treatment is applied.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- Your dementia stage is mild to moderate (CDR score 1 to 2)
- No other health problems are significantly affecting your thinking
- You can fully take part in all study visits and procedures
- You can and do give consent (you or your legal representative)

This study tests whether a new type of brain stimulation (called repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation, or rTMS) with a larger coil can improve memory and thinking in people with mild to moderate Alzheimer's disease. It involves multiple sessions of rTMS and MRI scans.
This study tests whether a non-invasive brain stimulation treatment called TMS (transcranial magnetic stimulation) can help people with early Alzheimer's disease or related memory problems. It's a safe, gentle way to stimulate brain cells using magnetic pulses.
This study tests whether a noninvasive magnetic brain stimulation treatment can slow down cognitive decline in people with early Alzheimer's disease. You'll receive daily sessions over several weeks, and the goal is to see if it helps preserve memory and thinking skills.
This study tests a non-invasive brain stimulation treatment designed to help with difficult mood and behavior symptoms in people with Alzheimer's disease. If you are a veteran with mild to moderate Alzheimer's and have troubling symptoms like agitation, the treatment may help improve your quality of life.
This study tests if repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (a non-invasive brain stimulation technique) can help improve memory and thinking in people with Alzheimer's disease. It may be an option if you are between 55 and 80, right-handed, and have a confirmed diagnosis of Alzheimer's.
This trial is testing whether a non-invasive brain stimulation treatment, called transcranial magnetic stimulation (using magnetic fields to activate brain cells), can help improve memory and thinking in people with Alzheimer's disease. It is a potential option for those looking to explore additional treatment approaches.
