TMS treatment for early Alzheimer's disease
Part of Brain & nervous system, Mental health clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You must be between 40 and 99 years old
- English must be your first language
- You have either mild primary progressive aphasia, mild memory problems (MCI), or very early Alzheimer's without symptoms
- You cannot have had a head injury that caused loss of consciousness
- You cannot have a history of seizures or a close family member with seizures
- You must be willing to have an MRI scan and are not allergic to metal implants or pacemakers

This trial studies a “closed-loop” brain stimulation approach to improve symptoms in people with early Alzheimer’s-related memory problems. It may help by delivering stimulation based on your brain signals, if you meet the safety and diagnosis requirements.
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.
This trial tests whether transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS), a noninvasive brain treatment, can help people with early Alzheimer's or mild cognitive impairment. It aims to see if the treatment is safe and effective for slowing memory decline.
This trial tests a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called deep repetitive TMS on a brain region linked to memory. It aims to see if this treatment can improve symptoms in people with mild-to-moderate Alzheimer's disease.
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 whether magnetic stimulation of the brain can improve memory and thinking in people with Alzheimer's. You would receive a gentle magnetic pulse to a specific area of your head during several sessions.
