Different frequency brain stimulation for Parkinson's disease
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This study tests a new, noninvasive brain stimulation technique (called temporal interference stimulation) given at different frequencies. It aims to improve Parkinson's symptoms by gently stimulating the brain area involved in movement.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have been diagnosed with Parkinson's disease by a neurologist.
- Your Parkinson's is at a mild to moderate stage (Hoehn and Yahr stage 1.5–3) meaning you can still walk without help.
- You take levodopa (a common Parkinson's medicine) and your dose has been the same for at least 4 weeks.
- You can walk by yourself.
- You do not have any metal or electronic implants in your head, and you are not claustrophobic (afraid of small spaces).
- You have not had deep brain stimulation surgery before.

This trial tests a new type of brain stimulation (called temporal interference stimulation) targeted at specific brain regions to help improve Parkinson's disease symptoms. Researchers will use MRI imaging and behavioral assessments to see if this approach can reduce movement problems and improve quality of life.
This trial tests a new non-invasive brain stimulation method called temporal interference to see if it can improve symptoms of Parkinson's disease. It is for people aged 40 to 80 who are on stable Parkinson's medications and have mild to moderate symptoms.
This trial uses a new type of non-invasive brain stimulation to target a deep brain area that controls movement. It aims to improve motor symptoms like stiffness and slowness in people with Parkinson's disease, without needing surgery.
This trial tests whether a brain stimulation technique can improve symptoms in people with mild to moderate Parkinson's disease. It may help by adjusting brain networks that control movement.
This trial tests a non-invasive brain stimulation technique (using electrical currents applied through the scalp) aimed at the subthalamic nucleus—a brain region involved in movement control—to help reduce both movement-related symptoms (like tremor and stiffness) and non-movement symptoms (like mood and sleep problems) in people with Parkinson's disease.
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.
