Dual-target brain stimulation for teens with ADHD
Part of Mental health clinical trials.
This trial tests a new brain stimulation method (iTBS) targeting two areas of the brain to help teens with ADHD who haven't improved enough with medication. It aims to see if this approach is safe and effective.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This trial tests if a noninvasive brain stimulation treatment (accelerated iTBS) can improve working memory or impulse control in adolescents with ADHD. It involves MRI scans and TMS sessions to see which thinking skill benefits most.
This trial tests a non-invasive brain stimulation treatment (called rTMS) to see if it can help reduce ADHD symptoms in children and adolescents. It may offer an additional treatment option beyond medication.
This trial tests a personalized, non-invasive brain stimulation method for children aged 5 to 18 with tic disorders who haven't been treated before. It aims to see if this new approach can help reduce tics safely.
This study tests if a type of brain stimulation called TMS can help teenagers with ADHD control their impulses better. The treatment targets a part of the brain that helps with stopping or changing actions.
This study tests whether a faster, brain-guided form of TMS (called iTBS) can help treat depression in teenagers better than standard TMS. You may qualify if you're 16–19, have tried an antidepressant that didn't work well, and have no medical reasons to avoid TMS or MRI.
This trial uses a non-invasive technique called deep transcranial magnetic stimulation (dTMS) to treat ADHD. You will receive either high or low frequency paired stimulation to see if it helps improve symptoms.
