New brain stimulation for depression and anxiety
Part of Mental health clinical trials.
This trial tests a new type of brain stimulation that uses gentle electrical currents to help people with depression or anxiety who haven't fully responded to medication. It may offer a new treatment option without the side effects of drugs.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This trial tests a new non-invasive brain stimulation technique called transcranial temporal interference stimulation to treat major depression. The goal is to see if this method can safely reduce depression symptoms in adults.
This trial tests a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called high-definition transcranial electrical stimulation (HD-tES) to see if it can help people with Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD). If you have GAD and have been stable on your current treatment, this study may be a good fit for you.
This trial tests if a gentle electrical current applied to the head at home can help reduce symptoms of major depression. You would use a device for short sessions over several weeks, while continuing your usual care.
This study tests whether a gentle, non-invasive brain stimulation technique (tACS) can help people who have both generalized anxiety and long-term sleep problems. It aims to see if this treatment can reduce anxiety and improve sleep.
This study tests a new non-invasive brain stimulation treatment that uses a mild electrical current to improve depression symptoms. It's for people who haven't gotten enough relief from antidepressants or couldn't tolerate them.
This study tests if a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS) can safely treat depression. It uses mild electrical pulses on the scalp to help improve mood.
