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 non-invasive brain stimulation method guided by MRI to see if it can improve Parkinson's symptoms. It may be an option for people who respond well to their current Parkinson's medications.
This study tests a non-invasive ultrasound treatment that gently stimulates a small part of the brain to see if it can improve Parkinson's symptoms like movement and stiffness. It may be an option for people who have not had brain surgery yet.
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 tests a non-invasive brain stimulation technique, called temporal interference stimulation, that aims to improve movement and non-movement symptoms in people with Parkinson's disease. If you have had Parkinson's for at least a year and are on stable medication, you might qualify.
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.
