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 Results may not be published yet.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This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.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 whether a non-invasive technique called transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) can help people recover movement after brain tumor surgery. Six patients will receive TMS once daily for three days, and their muscle strength will be measured before and after treatment. The goal is to see if TMS is safe and can speed up recovery of walking or hand use.

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 6 people

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

Expected to start

Jun 2026

An estimate. Start dates often move.

Expected to finish

Apr 2028

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.

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. Patients aged 22-65 years old who have undergone surgical resection for a brain tumor. 2. Patients undergoing any form of prior therapy, other than previous TMS therapy, will be considered. 3. Patients who present with sustained postoperative motor deficits at 1-2 weeks postoperatively as defined by the presence of British Medical Research Council (MRC) motor scores of 3/5 or less, or a sustained decrement by one point on the MRC score in the affected extremity. 4. Patients who present within three years of surgery with chronic, persistent motor-functional deficits will be included to demonstrate generalizability of safety and efficacy in neurosurgery patients with chronic deficits. 5. Ability to understand and the willingness to sign a written informed consent document. Exclusion Criteria: 1. Patients with any clinical history of seizures. 2. Patients with implanted devices (e.g., pacemakers, implanted stimulators, intracranial electrodes, cochlear implants). 3. Patients who have undergone a brain biopsy alone without resection. 4. Patients with postoperative cognitive deficits as defined by a Mini Mental State Examination score \<26. 5. History of bipolar disorder. 6. Pregnant or breast-feeding individuals. 7. Active suicidal ideation or plan as assessed by the Columbia Suicide Severity Rating Scale. 8. History of moderate to severe heart disease. 9. History of other neurological conditions defined by structural cerebral damage (e.g., stroke, multiple sclerosis, other neurodegenerative diseases, meningoencephalitis)
