Personalized rTMS for chronic pain
Part of Brain & nervous system, Pain clinical trials.
This study tests if personalized repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS), a non-invasive brain stimulation technique, can help reduce chronic pain. It aims to find out if targeting specific brain areas based on your pain patterns works better than standard treatment.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have had chronic pain (pain most days for over 3 months).
- Your average pain level is between 3 and 9 on a 0-10 scale (0 is no pain, 10 is worst pain).
- You can speak and understand English or Danish.
- You are not pregnant or breastfeeding.
- You do not have uncontrolled major depression or a current substance abuse problem.
- You have no metal implants in your head, epilepsy, or tattoos/makeup with metal ink on your face.
- You are not taking part in another research study within the past month.

This study tests whether personalized sessions of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS), a non-invasive brain stimulation technique, can help reduce chronic pain. It aims to understand how this treatment works and how it might be tailored to individuals.
This study tests a non-invasive brain stimulation treatment, called transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS), to see if it can help people who have both major depression that hasn't improved with medication and chronic pain from fibromyalgia or chronic fatigue syndrome. It aims to reduce both depression and pain symptoms.
This trial tests a personalized form of brain stimulation (high-definition tDCS) to treat chronic pain that has not improved with other treatments. If you have had pain for at least 6 months and it is still moderate to severe, this may be an option to explore.
This study tests an accelerated form of Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) — a non-invasive treatment that uses magnetic pulses to stimulate the brain — to see if it can reduce chronic pain. If you have long-term pain that hasn't responded well to at least two medications, this trial might be a good option for you.
This study tests whether a non-invasive brain stimulation treatment (rTMS) can reduce chronic pain in fibromyalgia patients. The treatment uses magnetic pulses to stimulate specific areas of the brain and may help relieve widespread pain.
This study tests a non-invasive type of brain stimulation called rTMS for people with frequent or chronic migraine who have not found relief from at least 3 prevention medications. The goal is to see if this treatment can safely reduce pain.
