Brain stimulation and memory training for glioma patients
Part of Cancer, Mental health clinical trials.
This trial tests a combination of brain stimulation (rTMS) and cognitive strategy training to help improve memory and thinking in people with glioma. If you have a stable brain tumor and notice problems with focus or memory, you may be able to join.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 or older.
- You have been diagnosed with a glioma (a type of brain tumor) that is grade 2, 3, or 4.
- You have problems with memory, concentration, or thinking that affect your daily life.
- Your tumor is not located in the parietal lobe (the top part of the brain).
- You have no implanted medical devices or metal in your body, and you are not claustrophobic.
- Your tumor is stable — you haven't had cancer treatment in the last 2 months, and your MRI shows no new growth.

This trial studies how radiotherapy affects memory and thinking in adults with certain brain or skull-base tumors. It may help doctors understand who is most likely to have thinking changes and how to monitor or support patients.
This study tests a combination of brain stimulation and behavioral therapy to help surgeons remove more of a low-grade glioma (a slower-growing brain tumor) that involves the motor area. It may help improve how much tumor can be taken out during surgery while monitoring safety.
This trial tests whether a special brain stimulation technique (nTMS) before surgery can help the brain reorganize around a tumor. It's for people with aggressive brain tumors near movement areas, who still have good strength.
This study tests whether magnetic brain stimulation before and after surgery can help older adults with mild memory or thinking problems recover their thinking abilities faster. You would receive either real or sham stimulation for a few days around your surgery.
This trial tests whether using EEG monitoring during surgery can help protect memory, attention, and other thinking skills for people with brain tumors (gliomas). If you are scheduled for brain tumor surgery and can complete simple thinking tests, this study may be an option for you.
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.
