NCT ID NCT06678737

First seen Mar 30, 2026 · Last updated May 04, 2026 · Updated 4 times

Summary

This study tests whether adding brain stimulation (TMS) to a standard behavioral therapy (CBIT) can help teens and young adults with chronic tics or Tourette syndrome better control their tics. About 60 participants aged 12-21 will receive both treatments to see if the combination improves tic suppression more than therapy alone. The goal is to help the many young people who don't get enough relief from current treatments.
