Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation in people with Dual Disorders
This study is not yet recruiting. It focuses on depression and currently lists study information in Spain.
Key information made simple
This study is comparing Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation with Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation-Sham coil for people with Major Depression or Tobacco Addiction. Participants receive Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation or Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation-Sham coil and complete study visits and assessments. Some participants may receive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation-Sham coil instead of the study treatment, and direct benefit is not guaranteed.
Your next step
The official record suggests in-person participation through a hospital, with sites including Consorcio Hospitalario Provincial de Castellón. Participation appears to involve assessments along with scans or samples to help researchers understand patterns more clearly. The main fit is usually being able to understand the study and consent and having a stable enough treatment background for the study, while common reasons not to take part include pregnancy or breastfeeding and other factors that could make participation unsuitable. This is a later-stage study, which usually means a larger group and a closer look at how well the approach holds up.
Questions to ask before joining
- What are the exact eligibility criteria, and what could exclude someone?
- How many visits, assessments, or follow-ups are expected, and over what period?
- What risks, side effects, practical burdens, or alternatives should be understood first?
- Who should be contacted to confirm locations, timing, compensation, and next steps?

Questions about this study
What is this study trying to understand?
This study is exploring medical device for people with depression. Participants may complete study visits, assessments, or follow-up activities defined by the research team. It includes a comparison with a sham comparison. Direct benefit is not guaranteed. The detailed objective is not always clearly listed in the public registry; the study team can confirm.
Does this study involve a device, app, or technology?
This appears to be a device / app / digital / technology study. The phase is not clearly listed in the public registry. Phase is mostly relevant for medication studies and some device studies. For this study, it may be more useful to look at what is required, the duration, visits, and eligibility criteria.
Do I need to want to stop or reduce tobacco use to participate?
The public registry appears to mention tobacco, nicotine, alcohol, cannabis, or another addiction-related topic. Ask the study team whether you need to want to stop, reduce, already be abstinent, or simply meet use-related criteria. Eligibility must be confirmed by the study team.
What would I likely need to do?
You may need to use a device, app, or digital tool for a defined period. The listed study locations suggest that at least part of participation may involve a physical site. Ask whether some steps can be done remotely.
What should I check about data, monitoring, alerts, and daily use?
If the study uses a device, app, or digital tool, check what data is collected, who can access it, how often you need to use it, and what happens if the tool detects a concerning signal. For any mental health study, also ask who to contact if you feel worse, whether participation may affect current treatment, whether you can stop, and who confirms eligibility.
Will I need to travel or attend in-person visits?
The listed study locations suggest that at least part of participation may involve a physical site. Ask which sites are open, how many visits are expected, whether any steps can be done remotely, and whether travel costs or compensation are listed.
Who is behind this study?
This study is sponsored by Cardenal Herrera University, which appears to be a university. If available, it can be useful to check the sponsor website, collaborators, investigator affiliation, and the official registry before deciding. HopeStage does not judge the quality of a sponsor or researcher, but helps you identify what to verify.
Can I still join this study?
The registry indicates that this study has not started recruiting yet. You can check the planned start date and available contacts.
