What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting This study
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 Results may not be published yet.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This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.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 way to use magnetic stimulation (TMS) to help stroke survivors recover thinking and memory. Instead of a one-size-fits-all approach, researchers will use brain scans to find the exact spot to stimulate for each person. The study will include 10 healthy people and 15 stroke patients to see if this personalized method can temporarily improve performance on a memory task.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could lead to a personalized treatment approach for cognitive deficits after stroke, improving memory and thinking skills.
What could go wrong
This is a very early, small study (25 people) focused on validating a method, not proving effectiveness. It may not translate into a real-world treatment.

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 25 people

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

Expected to start

Nov 2025

An estimate. Start dates often move.

Expected to finish

Nov 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 years and older

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: 1. Age ≥ 18 years; 2. First-ever ischemic stroke or intracerebral haemorrhage in a cerebral hemisphere or the brainstem; 3. Cognitive impairment based on assessment by the treating rehabilitation physician. 4. Able to perform n-back task at inclusion. 5. Inclusion possible within 10 weeks after stroke onset; 6. Signed informed consent. Exclusion Criteria: 1. Known cognitive impairment prior to stroke onset; 2. Absolute contra-indication to TMS: Magnetic sensitive objects implanted in the head or neck area (e.g. cochlear implants, implanted neurostimulator, pacemaker or defibrillator, metal splinters, metal fragments or metal clips), history of epilepsy, pregnancy or other contra-indications that may potentially be harmful as determined by the treating rehabilitation physician; 3. Incompetence or severe impairments that can impede study participation as determined by the treating rehabilitation physician (i.e. extreme fatigue, severe communication deficits); 4. Life expectancy shorter than one year.
