Brain Stimulation for Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder
Part of Mental health clinical trials.
This study tests a new non-invasive brain stimulation technique called temporal interference stimulation to help reduce PTSD symptoms. If you have PTSD that's lasted at least 3 months, this trial may help you or contribute to better treatments for others.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Age between 18 and 50 years old
- Diagnosed with PTSD for at least 3 months, confirmed by a clinical assessment
- If taking psychiatric medications, doses must be stable for at least 4 weeks before starting
- Completed at least junior high school education (9+ years)
- No other serious mental health conditions besides PTSD, depression, or anxiety disorder
- No brain implants, pacemakers, or conditions that make brain stimulation unsafe

This trial tests a new form of brain stimulation (called targeted accelerated TMS) to see if it can help reduce symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). It involves daily sessions over a short period and may be an option if you have at least moderate PTSD symptoms and a stable treatment plan.
This study tests an accelerated form of brain stimulation called iTBS to see if it can help people with both PTSD and depression. It may be a good option if you have not found enough relief from your current treatments.
This study tests a type of brain stimulation (called accelerated neuromodulation) to see if it can help veterans who have both PTSD and chronic pain. It uses a device placed on the scalp to gently stimulate brain areas linked to these conditions, with the goal of reducing symptoms.
This study tests a noninvasive brain stimulation method called iTBS to see if it can help people with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). You would receive the treatment and be monitored for changes in your symptoms.
This study tests a new non-invasive brain stimulation technique called temporal interference to help treat psychiatric conditions. Researchers will use MRI scanning and specialized stimulation equipment to see if this approach is safe and helpful.
This study tests a personalized form of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS)—a non-invasive brain stimulation technique—to help treat post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in military veterans and former service members. The goal is to reduce PTSD symptoms by stimulating specific brain areas tailored to each person.
