TMS for dual disorder depression and substance abuse
Part of Mental health clinical trials.
This study tests a new way to use transcranial magnetic stimulation (a non-invasive brain treatment using magnetic pulses) to help people who have both major depression and substance abuse problems, and haven't gotten better with standard medicines.

This study looks at whether certain substances in the blood can help predict how well a type of brain stimulation called intermittent theta burst stimulation (iTBS) works for people whose depression hasn't improved with standard treatments. It may help doctors choose better treatments in the future.
This trial tests a new type of transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) for people with severe depression that hasn't improved with multiple medications or therapy. It uses a different frequency pattern to target brain circuits.
This trial tests whether repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS), a non-invasive brain stimulation treatment, can help people with severe stimulant use disorder reduce their use. You may qualify if you have been off stimulants for 2 to 8 weeks and are medically stable.
This study combines mindfulness practice with transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS)—a non-invasive brain stimulation technique—to help people with depression that hasn't improved with antidepressant medications. The goal is to see if adding mindfulness to TMS improves how well the treatment works.
This study tests whether a brain stimulation technique called TMS can help people with depression, anxiety, OCD, or schizophrenia. It aims to find better ways to target the treatment for each person's specific needs.
This trial tests an accelerated form of transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) for people with treatment-resistant depression who have been referred for ECT. It aims to offer a non-invasive, less intensive alternative with fewer side effects.
