Brain stimulation for early Alzheimer's disease
Part of Brain & nervous system, Mental health clinical trials.
This study tests a new, noninvasive brain stimulation method called Transcranial Pulse Stimulation (TPS) for people in the early stages of Alzheimer's disease. The goal is to see if it can help improve symptoms.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have been diagnosed with early-stage Alzheimer's (stage 2-6a).
- You are between 60 and 90 years old.
- You can give consent with help from a family caregiver.
- You have a family caregiver who can answer questions.
- You do not have metal implants in your head, bleeding disorders, or blood clots.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study tests whether a special type of brain stimulation called 40Hz BCI (brain-computer interface) might help slow memory loss in people with Alzheimer's disease. You would receive daily stimulation sessions at home with help from a caregiver.
This study tests whether a painless brain stimulation technique (called tACS) combined with computer-based memory exercises can improve thinking and memory in people with mild Alzheimer's disease. Participation involves using the stimulation device at home with the help of a trained caregiver.
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 study tests whether a special type of brain stimulation called temporal interference stimulation can improve memory and thinking skills in people with early-stage Alzheimer's disease. The treatment uses electrical stimulation to target specific brain areas without surgery.
This study tests whether a non-invasive magnetic brain stimulation technique can help improve memory in people with early Alzheimer's disease. It may be an option if you have mild cognitive impairment or mild dementia due to Alzheimer's and have had a positive blood test for Alzheimer's markers.
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.
