Brain stimulation for Parkinson's disease symptoms
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This trial tests a new, non-invasive brain stimulation technique (called temporal interference stimulation) to see if it can improve Parkinson's symptoms. It uses MRI to guide the treatment, and the goal is to help with movement and other symptoms without surgery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have Parkinson's disease (diagnosed by a specialist).
- Your symptoms are mild to moderate (Hoehn & Yahr stage I-III).
- You are between 45 and 65 years old and right-handed.
- You are able to have an MRI scan (no pacemaker, metal implants, or deep brain stimulator).
- You have no major thinking/memory problems or severe psychiatric issues.
- You can keep your Parkinson's medication dose stable for the 2-week study period.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial tests a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called transcranial temporal interference stimulation (TTIS) that you can use at home with remote supervision. It aims to improve movement problems like stiffness, tremor, and slowness in people with mild-to-moderate Parkinson's disease.
This study tests whether repeated magnetic stimulation (rTMS) of the brain can help improve movement and thinking problems in people with Parkinson's disease. Researchers will measure how the treatment affects your motor control and cognitive function over the study period.
This study tests whether a non-invasive brain stimulation technique applied to the back of your brain (cerebellum) can help improve movement and balance in people with mild to moderate Parkinson's disease. The treatment uses a small electrical current to stimulate brain activity.
This trial tests a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) to see if it can help improve movement problems in people with Parkinson's disease. If you have Parkinson's, this might be an option to explore.
This study tests whether a non-invasive brain stimulation treatment called repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS), applied to a specific area of the brain, can improve walking and reduce 'freezing' in people with Parkinson's disease. The treatment is generally safe and does not require surgery.
This study tests whether a gentle electrical current applied to the scalp can improve thinking, language, and movement problems in people with Parkinson's disease. You will receive either real or pretend stimulation to see if it helps.
