What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This study tests a new computer method to measure how nerves and muscles respond to stimulation more quickly and accurately. Ten healthy adults will receive magnetic pulses to the brain while the new algorithm picks the best stimulation levels to test. The goal is to reduce the number of measurements needed, making future research and therapies less time-consuming.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

What this could lead to
If successful, this method could make future TMS and spinal cord stimulation experiments faster and less tiring for participants.
What could go wrong
This is a very small, early-stage study (10 healthy adults) testing a computational model, not a treatment. It may not translate to real-world clinical settings.

This is an AI summary of the original study and may miss details. Read our disclaimer.

Study facts

What this study's own registry entry says, in plain language.

Phase

Not a phased trial

Phase numbers describe drug development. The registry uses this when they do not apply, as it does for trials of devices, procedures or behaviour changes, and for observational studies.

Participants

About 14 people

The number the study aims to enrol. It can still change while the study runs.

Expected to start

Sep 2026

An estimate. Start dates often move.

Expected to finish

Mar 2027

An estimate. End dates often move.

Lead sponsor

Other sponsor

The registry's catch-all category, for sponsors it does not file as a company, a government agency, or a research network.

Who can take part

This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.

Ages

18 to 90 years

Sex

Anyone

Healthy volunteers

Accepted

You do not need to have the condition being studied to take part.

Show the full entry requirements

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: * Healthy adult volunteers aged 18 years and older. * Able to understand study procedures and provide written informed consent. Exclusion Criteria: * 1\. History of adverse reaction to Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) or non-invasive neurostimulation. * 2\. History of seizures, epilepsy, or family history of epilepsy. * 3\. History of stroke, brain injury, or illness causing brain injury. * 4\. History of head injury or neurosurgery. * 5\. History of neurological diseases, or central nervous system lesions. * 6\. Presence of metallic implants or foreign bodies in the head (outside of dental work/fillings). * 7\. Presence of implanted electronic or medical devices (e.g., cardiac pacemakers, medical pumps, implanted stimulators). * 8\. Current pregnancy or possibility of pregnancy. * 9\. Currently taking medications that alter cortical excitability or lower seizure threshold.
