Filter by:This study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of onabotulinumtoxinA (BOTOX®) compared with placebo as treatment for major depressive disorder (MDD) in adult females.
Evaluate the impact of GeneSight Psychotropic on response to psychotropic treatment as judged by the mean change in the 17-item Hamilton Depression (HAM-D17) score from baseline to end of Week 8 of the study.
This is a phase II, randomized, sham controlled, clinical trial. This clinical trial has as primary objective to evaluate the effect of the Trigeminal Nerve Stimulation (TNS) on depressive symptoms measured by the Hamilton Depressive Rating Scale version 17 items (HDRS-17) in patients with moderate / severe depressive episode.
The study will investigate functional and metabolic changes in the course of antidepressive treatments. The investigators will apply different imaging methods to investigate the effects of antidepressive interventions on resting state neural activity, functional activation during cognitive and emotional stimulation, neurotransmitter concentrations as well as concentrations of brain- derived neurotrophic factor.
The purpose of this study is to explore whether electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) accidentally leads to a side effect of brain inflammation. Patients with treatment resistant depression who are planning to take ECT will be subsequently approached to participate in the study.
Project aim: To compare the effectiveness and acceptability of a conventional and a religious internet-supported cognitive behavior therapy (iCBT) for depression in Romania.
The study objective is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of trazodone OAD vs venlafaxine extended release (venlafaxine XR) after an 8-week treatment period in patients with major depressive disorder.
This is a non-inferiority trial of Engage, a new intervention for late-life depression, and problem solving therapy (PST). Patient participants will be randomized to either Engage or PST and receive 9 weeks of either intervention. Interview assessments will be collected at baseline and weeks 2, 4, 6, 8, 9, 26, and 36. Clinician participants, social workers from mental health agencies, will be randomized to receive training and certification in either Engage or PST.
The proposed work will evaluate the ability of neurocognitive retraining of executive functions and emotional regulation to reduce neurocognitive dysfunctions that follow trauma exposure and thereby prevent PTSD. The scientific rationale for this work is the hypothesis that impaired emotional regulation interferes with the expected recovery from the early responses to traumatic events, leading into a chronic disorder. In an initial phase the investigators will recruit 20 recently traumatized participants among trauma survivors admitted to a general hospital emergency room and test the planned intervention's acceptance and right 'dosing'. In the second phase the investigators will enroll 80 recent survivors into a randomized controlled study of the new intervention. The intervention will consist of web-based neurobehavioral training interventions that instill an emotional bias toward positive stimuli, improve emotion recognition and labeling, reduce resistance to emotional distraction, and enhance executive functioning. Control participants will complete web-based video games that do not have emotion-regulatory benefits. Outcome measures will include improvement in neurocognitive functioning and in PTSD symptoms.
This is a Phase 3 study designed to evaluate the safety and tolerability of two titration schedules for ALKS 5461.
