Temporal interference stimulation for treatment-resistant schizophrenia
Part of Mental health clinical trials.
This study tests a new type of brain stimulation called temporal interference stimulation to see if it can help people with schizophrenia who haven't improved with standard medications. It aims to reduce symptoms like delusions and hallucinations.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be between 18 and 65 years old and right-handed.
- You need a formal diagnosis of schizophrenia.
- You must have tried at least two different antipsychotic medications without enough relief.
- Your current medication dose must be stable for the past 4 weeks.
- You must have some specific schizophrenia symptoms (like delusions or hallucinations) that are moderate or worse.

This study tests a new type of brain stimulation called temporal interference to see if it can help with negative symptoms (like lack of motivation or emotion) and cognitive symptoms (like trouble with memory or focus) in schizophrenia. It uses a special head device to target a specific brain area.
This trial tests if a brain stimulation technique called transcranial electrical stimulation (TIS) can help improve cognitive problems (like memory and attention) in people with schizophrenia. You may join if you are between 18 and 50, have had schizophrenia for no more than 8 years, take 1-2 antipsychotic medicines, and have some trouble with daily activities.
This trial tests a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called transcranial electrical stimulation (TIS) to improve thinking and memory problems in people with schizophrenia. Researchers want to see if this treatment, combined with antipsychotic medications, can help you think more clearly and function better in daily life.
This study tests temporal interference (TI), a brain stimulation method, to treat depression. You may be a candidate if you have moderate-to-severe major depression and can follow the study schedule and safety screening.
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 study tests a new, non-invasive treatment called 'temporal interference' for people whose epilepsy seizures are not controlled by medication. It aims to reduce seizures by using low-level electrical fields to calm overactive brain cells.
