Enhancing Letter-Speech Sound Learning and Reading Network Activation With Transcranial Electrical Stimulation
Summary
NIH ClinicalTrials.gov registered a Phase N/A interventional study (NCT07546292) titled 'Enhancing Letter-Speech Sound Learning and Reading Network Activation With Transcranial Electrical Stimulation.' The trial investigates transcranial random noise stimulation (tRNS) versus sham stimulation in adult participants across a range of reading abilities, using an artificial orthography learning task that simulates letter-speech sound learning, a skill impaired in developmental dyslexia. Conditions listed include Developmental Dyslexia, Reading, Learning, and Learning Disabilities. Enrollment status and specific participant numbers are not disclosed in the registry entry; the posted date is April 22, 2026.
“This study investigates the effects of transcranial electrical stimulation (tES) on the brain and its potential to enhance reading-related learning.”

What changed
The NIH ClinicalTrials.gov registry added a new observational trial record (NCT07546292) for a study examining transcranial electrical stimulation as a potential aid for letter-speech sound learning in adults with developmental dyslexia. The trial lists two arms — active transcranial random noise stimulation (tRNS) and sham stimulation — and will use both behavioral measures and functional MRI to assess outcomes. Conditions include Developmental Dyslexia, Reading, Learning, and Learning Disabilities. This registry entry does not create compliance obligations. Readers should note that ClinicalTrials.gov entries reflect study registration intent; they do not constitute FDA approval, endorsement of the device, or authorization to proceed clinically.
For compliance officers and clinical research professionals, this entry signals ongoing investigation into non-invasive neuromodulation for reading-related learning disabilities. Sponsors or institutions conducting similar cognitive/neurorehabilitation trials should monitor this study for future results publication, as positive findings could inform IRB submissions or device-investigation protocols. The trial does not impose reporting or disclosure requirements on external parties.

Enhancing Letter-Speech Sound Learning and Reading Network Activation With Transcranial Electrical Stimulation
N/A NCT07546292 Kind: NA Apr 22, 2026
Abstract
This study investigates the effects of transcranial electrical stimulation (tES) on the brain and its potential to enhance reading-related learning. Adult participants with a range of reading abilities will receive transcranial random noise stimulation (tRNS) while they perform an artificial orthography learning task. This task simulates letter-speech sound learning, an important first step during reading acquisition known to be impaired in individuals with developmental dyslexia. The effects of the intervention will be assessed using both behavioral measures and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI).
Conditions: Dyslexia, Developmental, Reading, Dyslexia, Learning, Learning Disabilities
Interventions: Transcranial random noise stimulation, Sham Stimulation
