Testing a headband that sends brain pulses for depression
Part of Mental health clinical trials.
This study tests a new headband that sends gentle electrical pulses to the brain (T-PEMF) to lift depression. You might join if you have moderate to severe depression and don't have certain other conditions or implants.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have been diagnosed with moderate to severe depression (without signs of psychosis).
- You do not have suicidal thoughts that would make the study unsafe for you.
- You do not have bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, dementia, or another serious brain condition.
- You have no metal implants like a pacemaker or cochlear implant in your head or body.
- If you are female and could become pregnant, you must have a negative pregnancy test and use effective birth control during the study.
- You can speak and understand Danish (since the study is run in Denmark).

This trial tests if a gentle electrical current applied to the head at home can help reduce symptoms of major depression. You would use a device for short sessions over several weeks, while continuing your usual care.
This trial tests if a gentle electrical current applied to the head can help people with major depression. It's for adults currently in a depressive episode who haven't found relief from at least two previous antidepressants.
This trial tests a new way to use magnetic pulses to target specific brain areas linked to depression. It aims to improve mood by stimulating a circuit that may be overactive in people with major depression.
This trial tests a new way of delivering a non-invasive brain stimulation treatment called iTBS for depression. The treatment is personalized based on brain scans, and the study aims to see if it can help reduce depressive symptoms.
This study tests a personalized, maintenance brain-stimulation treatment (called accelerated TMS) that is fine-tuned for each person to help keep depression from coming back. It also uses wrist-worn sensors and phone surveys to track mood and catch signs of depression early so you can get help sooner.
This study tests if a type of brain stimulation (TMS) can improve brain function in people with depression. It also includes a small group of epilepsy patients who are already having brain monitoring. The goal is to find new ways to treat depression by targeting specific brain areas.
