Testing a new brain stimulation for essential tremor
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This trial tests whether a non-invasive brain stimulation method called Temporal Interference can help reduce tremors in people with essential tremor. It may offer a new way to calm hand shaking without surgery or medication.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 30 and 70 years old
- You have action tremor (shaking when moving) and/or postural tremor (shaking when holding a position) in one or both hands
- You have no history of mental illness
- You are willing to sign a consent form
- You do not have other neurological conditions like epilepsy
- You do not have metal implants in your body (like a brain or heart pacemaker)

This trial tests a noninvasive procedure that uses focused ultrasound waves to target a small area in the brain responsible for tremor. It may offer a new option for people with essential tremor whose symptoms are not well controlled by medication.
This trial tests a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called tTIS to help reduce the shaking associated with essential tremor. Researchers want to see if this approach can improve hand control and quality of life for people with this condition.
This trial is testing whether a device that gently stimulates the nerves in your arm (called non-invasive neuromodulation) can safely reduce hand tremors over a long period. It might help with activities like eating, writing, or dressing.
This Phase 1 study tests a coordinated reset deep brain stimulation program for people with essential tremor. It may help reduce tremor symptoms using a specific implanted brain-stimulation device, along with special high-strength MRI and CT imaging before and after surgery.
This study uses ultrasound to gently stimulate the brain’s cerebellum. It’s checking if this can improve symptoms for people with essential tremor (a shaking condition) or help us understand brain function in healthy volunteers.
This trial tests a new study drug (BP1.4979) to see if it can reduce shaking in people with essential tremor. It's for people who have had arm tremors for at least 3 years and have not had surgery for tremor.
