What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now

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.

Summary

This study tests whether a home exercise program combined with a gentle brain stimulation technique (tDCS) can reduce fatigue in people with multiple sclerosis. Sixty participants will either get real tDCS or a sham version alongside their exercises. The goal is to see if the combo works better than exercise alone for improving energy and daily function.

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

Started

Expected to finish

Oct 2026

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

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

Inclusion Criteria: * Signed written informed consent * Confirmed diagnosis of multiple sclerosis * Presence of fatigue associated with multiple sclerosis, defined as a fatigue Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) score equal to or greater than 4 * Functional capacity sufficient to perform the Six-Minute Walk Test (6MWT), assessed by a Functional Ambulation Category (FAC) score of 3 or higher Exclusion Criteria: * Presence of any neurological, rheumatological, or other medical condition prior to the diagnosis of multiple sclerosis that could interfere with the study outcomes * Presence of contraindications for transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS), such as having a pacemaker, a history of epillepsy, pregnancy, implanted intracranial electrodes, defibrillator, or similar electronic devices. * Cognitive impairment that limits the participant's ability to collaborate with study procedures. * Any changes in physical therapy or pharmacological treatments for multiple sclerosis and/or fatigue that are not specified by the study protocol. * Occurrence of a multiple sclerosis relapse or disease progression with functional repercussions during the study period.
