NCT ID NCT07120100

First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated Apr 28, 2026 · Updated 22 times

Summary

This study tests whether a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) can reduce nerve pain caused by chemotherapy in breast and gynecologic cancer survivors. About 19 women with persistent pain will receive rTMS treatments, and researchers will measure changes in pain scores and safety. The goal is to find a new way to ease this common, lingering side effect of cancer treatment.
