HD-tDCS + mCILT for Primary Progressive Aphasia
Study Summary
This trial is testing whether high-definition transcranial direct current stimulation (HD-tDCS) paired with modified constraint-induced language therapy (mCILT) can improve language performance in people with primary progressive aphasia (PPA). The study will compare changes in language performance and brain imaging before and after receiving 10 semi-consecutive daily sessions of real or sham HD-tDCS + mCILT. The 3-month follow-up will be the primary endpoint.
