Accelerated deep TMS for OCD treatment
Part of Mental health clinical trials.
This trial tests a new type of brain stimulation called accelerated rotational field deep TMS to treat OCD. It aims to safely reduce OCD symptoms over a few weeks of sessions.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be at least 18 and able to attend all treatment sessions as an outpatient.
- You have a confirmed diagnosis of obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) with moderate to severe symptoms.
- If you take medication for OCD, your dose must have been stable for at least 2 months.
- You cannot be currently in the active learning phase of exposure and response prevention therapy (maintenance only).
- You must not have any metal implants in your head (like clips, stents, or cochlear implants) or a history of seizures.

This trial tests whether deep transcranial magnetic stimulation (a non-invasive brain stimulation technique) can help treat obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) in people who haven't improved enough with standard treatments like medication or therapy.
This trial tests a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called tDCS (which uses a mild electrical current on the scalp) to see if it can reduce OCD symptoms. It is for people whose OCD has not improved with standard treatments.
This study tests a fast-acting brain stimulation method (accelerated rTMS) for people whose obsessive-compulsive disorder has not improved enough with standard treatments. It aims to help those who still have moderate to severe symptoms despite trying multiple medications.
This trial tests whether a gentle brain stimulation (tDCS) combined with facing your fears can help people with hard-to-treat OCD. If you've tried multiple treatments without relief, this study may offer a new option.
This study tests whether a quick form of magnetic brain stimulation (rTMS) can help hospitalized patients with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) who are also doing exposure and response prevention therapy.
This trial tests if deep brain stimulation (a surgical treatment that uses electrical pulses to adjust brain activity) can help people with severe obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) that has not improved with other treatments. It is for adults aged 22 to 75 who have had OCD symptoms for over 5 years.
