New magnetic and electrical brain stimulation for mild Alzheimer's
Part of Brain & nervous system, Mental health clinical trials.
This trial tests a new, noninvasive treatment that combines magnetic and electrical stimulation to target a specific brain network in people with mild Alzheimer's disease. It aims to slow memory decline and improve brain function.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a diagnosis of mild Alzheimer's disease confirmed by a spinal fluid test or a special brain scan.
- Your mini-mental score is between 21 and 27.
- You have a caregiver who lives with you or can help regularly.
- Your memory has been getting worse for at least 6 months.
- You are not taking any medications that are not allowed, and your other medicines have been stable for a month.

This study tests a non-invasive brain stimulation method (temporal interference stimulation) to see if it can improve memory in people with early signs of Alzheimer's disease. It aims to understand how the stimulation affects brain function.
This study tests a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS) to see if it can improve memory and thinking in people with early Alzheimer's disease. It may offer a new way to help manage symptoms.
This trial is testing whether a non-invasive brain stimulation treatment, called transcranial magnetic stimulation (using magnetic fields to activate brain cells), can help improve memory and thinking in people with Alzheimer's disease. It is a potential option for those looking to explore additional treatment approaches.
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 study tests whether a new type of brain stimulation (called repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation, or rTMS) with a larger coil can improve memory and thinking in people with mild to moderate Alzheimer's disease. It involves multiple sessions of rTMS and MRI scans.
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.
