Personalized brain stimulation and wearable monitoring for depression
Part of Mental health clinical trials.
This study tests a personalized, maintenance brain-stimulation treatment (called accelerated TMS) that is fine-tuned for each person to help keep depression from coming back. It also uses wrist-worn sensors and phone surveys to track mood and catch signs of depression early so you can get help sooner.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 21 and 70 years old.
- You have had a diagnosis of major depressive disorder (depression) in the past or currently.
- You have tried at least one depression medication for at least 4 weeks and it did not help enough.
- You have already completed a course of TMS (brain stimulation therapy) for depression and it worked well for you.
- You are willing to wear a wrist sensor and complete phone surveys every week for 12 months.
- You do not have metal in your head, a pacemaker, or other electronic implants in your body.

This study tests a new way to use magnetic brain stimulation (TMS) to treat depression and anxiety that haven't improved with medication. The treatment is personalized based on your brain scans, which may make it more effective.
This study tests a new, personalized form of brain stimulation (called TMS) using MRI scans to target the right areas for people whose depression hasn't improved with medication. It aims to see if this tailored approach works better than standard TMS.
This trial tests a new form of brain stimulation called iTBS (a type of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation) that is personalized for each person, compared to a sham (inactive) treatment. It aims to see if this personalized approach can safely reduce symptoms of depression.
This trial tests a new way of delivering a non-invasive brain stimulation treatment called iTBS for depression. The treatment is personalized based on brain scans, and the study aims to see if it can help reduce depressive symptoms.
This study is testing whether measuring your brain's electrical activity (EEG) during MRI can help personalize a type of brain stimulation treatment called TMS (transcranial magnetic stimulation) for people with hard-to-treat depression. The goal is to find early markers that predict who will respond to this treatment, so it can be tailored to each person for better results.
This study uses brain imaging to guide a noninvasive treatment called transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) for people with depression. It aims to see if tailoring the stimulation to each person's brain can improve symptoms.
