Deep TMS for alcohol use disorder
Part of Mental health clinical trials.
This study tests whether deep transcranial magnetic stimulation (dTMS) can change brain activity related to alcohol use. It is for people who have moderate to severe alcohol use disorder and are willing to attend clinic visits.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Age 18 to 75
- Diagnosed with moderate to severe alcohol use disorder (at least 4 symptoms)
- Able to attend scheduled visits and follow the study plan
- No metal implants or devices in your head or body that would make TMS or MRI unsafe
- No recent seizure or history of bipolar disorder or psychosis

This study tests whether a new type of alternating current brain stimulation can help people with alcohol use disorder reduce their drinking. It involves several sessions of non-invasive stimulation while you complete questionnaires and behavioral tasks.
This trial tests whether a noninvasive brain stimulation treatment called transcranial direct current stimulation may change brain and behavior in people with alcohol use disorder. It may help researchers understand safety and potential effects, especially in people who are stable on treatment and not having seizure or severe mood symptoms.
This trial tests a type of noninvasive brain stimulation to see if it can reduce drinking and related “wanting” to drink. It may help people with alcohol use disorder who are currently drinking heavily.
This study uses a brain stimulation technique called TMS combined with MRI scans to treat alcohol use disorder. It aims to see if targeting specific brain connections can help reduce drinking.
This study uses a type of brain stimulation called deep TMS to see if it can help people with methamphetamine use disorder reduce their cravings and use. You would receive daily magnetic pulses to specific brain areas over several weeks.
This trial tests a non-invasive brain stimulation device (Deep TMS) to help people with alcohol use disorder reduce or stop heavy drinking. It uses magnetic pulses to target brain areas linked to addiction.
