Brief Summary:
This study aims to evaluate safety and efficacy of tSMS in ALS patients and to obtain preliminary data about the effects of tSMS on cortical excitability.
To this purpose, 40 ALS patients will be recruited and randomized to real or sham tSMS. After at least 3 months follow-up, they will undergo tSMS, daily for 120 min, at home, for 6 consecutive months.
Clinical status will be tested before, during and after the stimulation period. Moreover, cortical excitability will be tested by transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) before and after the stimulation period.
