Magnetic brain stimulation for stimulant use disorder in Veterans
Part of Mental health clinical trials.
This study tests whether magnetic brain stimulation (called TMS) can help treat severe stimulant use disorder in Veterans. If you qualify, you would receive TMS sessions and be monitored to see if it reduces your stimulant use.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Be a U.S. military Veteran.
- Have a diagnosis of severe stimulant use disorder (like cocaine or methamphetamine).
- Your last use of stimulants was more than 2 weeks but less than 8 weeks ago.
- Your medications have been the same for at least 2 weeks and will stay the same during the study.
- You have no medical conditions or devices (like a pacemaker) that would make TMS unsafe.

This test uses a safe, non-invasive brain stimulation method called TMS (transcranial magnetic stimulation) to see if it can help people with stimulant use disorder reduce their cravings and stay sober. You would need to be in an addiction treatment program and have been clean for at least 2 weeks to join.
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 whether a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) can help people with amphetamine use disorder. It uses magnetic pulses to target brain areas linked to addiction, potentially reducing cravings and improving recovery.
This study tests a personalized brain stimulation treatment to help veterans quit smoking. It uses magnetic pulses to target brain areas involved in addiction, which may reduce cravings and make it easier to stop.
This study tests a personalized form of transcranial magnetic stimulation (a non-invasive brain stimulation that uses magnetic pulses) to see if it can help reduce PTSD symptoms in veterans. The treatment is tailored to each person's brain activity, which may make it more effective than standard approaches.
This trial tests a new brain stimulation treatment called TMS (transcranial magnetic stimulation) to help reduce methamphetamine use and its effects. It uses a closed loop, meaning the stimulation adjusts based on your brain activity, and may help with core symptoms of addiction.
