TMS for anxiety in Parkinson's disease
Part of Brain & nervous system, Mental health clinical trials.
This study tests whether transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS), a non-invasive brain treatment, can help reduce anxiety in people with Parkinson's disease. You may qualify if you have both Parkinson's and significant anxiety symptoms.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have been diagnosed with Parkinson's disease by a movement disorder specialist.
- You have anxiety related to Parkinson's (score of 14 or higher on a specific anxiety scale).
- You are between 40 and 90 years old.
- Your Parkinson's is at an early to moderate stage (Hoehn & Yahr stage 3 or less).
- You are on stable medications for Parkinson's, anxiety, or depression for at least 1 month before starting.
- You do not have a seizure disorder, active substance abuse, or certain medical implants (like a deep brain stimulator).

This study uses a type of brain stimulation (cTBS) combined with MRI to look at how the brain responds. It may help researchers learn more about treating anxiety.
This study tests whether a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called theta burst stimulation can help us understand how emotions affect memory. You'll undergo brain imaging and stimulation to help researchers learn more about memory processes.
This study tests if a specific type of magnetic brain stimulation (TMS) can reduce anxiety for people who haven't gotten enough relief from other treatments. You would receive daily TMS sessions over several weeks, and the team will track your anxiety symptoms closely.
This trial tests a precise form of brain stimulation (called TMS) to see if it can improve movement problems like stiffness, slowness, or tremors in people with Parkinson's disease. Participants must have a stable medication routine and no metal implants or brain surgery history.
This study tests whether repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) can help people with Parkinson's disease. You will receive rTMS and be evaluated for changes in movement and thinking.
This study tests whether a non-invasive brain stimulation treatment called TMS (transcranial magnetic stimulation) can help improve apathy, or loss of motivation, in people with Parkinson's disease. You must have had symptoms for at least 4 years and be on stable Parkinson's medications.
