Insomnia is a common sleep disorder for patients with depression. This has a major impact on the quality of life for the individual. The aim is to investigate, whether music intervention is effective in 1. improving sleep quality, 2. reducing symptoms of depression and 3. improving quality of life Participants use a sound pillow and selected music in the The Music Star app at home as a sleep aid in 4 weeks.
The study will evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of 225 milligrams (mg) and 450 milligrams (mg) of Rapastinel, compared to placebo in participants with major depressive disorder (MDD).
While there are effective treatments for depression available, some patients do not see results with these options. Often, these patients are referred to electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) which has drawbacks such as adverse side effects, cost, and limited access. Recent research shows that intravenous ketamine may be an alternative option for these patients due to its rapid antidepressant effect sustained with multiple treatments. This study will recruit 240 participants from the ECT waiting list at the five participating hospitals, and randomize them to either the ketamine or ECT treatment arm. Participants in the ketamine treatment arm will receive 0.5mg/kg ketamine intravenously (IV) over 40 minutes as described in the study schedule. Participants in the ECT treatment arm will receive ECT as described in the study schedule and as decided by their treating physician. Throughout the study, clinical, neuroimaging, molecular, and cognitive assessments will be conducted. The aim of this study is to show that compared to ECT, ketamine treatment produces faster results, has less side effects, requires less or shorter hospitalizations, and is less expensive. The measures collected throughout the study (clinician scales, self-reports, blood samples, and neuroimaging) may help with predicting if future patients will respond to ECT or ketamine. This could lead to faster, more effective treatment for patient with depression.
The study consists in estimating the mental load (cognitive saturation) and the production of driving cognition to suicidal patients.
This is a prospective, randomized clinical trial to investigate the clinical impact of a preemptive pharmacogenomics strategy to guide antidepressant therapy in cancer patients. Those enrolled onto the clinical trial will be randomized to either DNA-guided choice of therapy or clinical management alone. Scores on self-reported measures of depressive and anxiety symptoms along with quality of life will be compared between cohorts.
The aim of this trial is to investigate the effects of a single bout of aerobic exercise on sleep in patients with depression.
This study is a phase 3, multicenter, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled study evaluating the efficacy of SAGE-217 in the treatment of adult participants with major depressive disorder (MDD).
This project will combine the data collected from EEG, Eye tracking, structural and functional MRI scans and neuropsychological performance from patients with major depression receiving SSRI treatment. The purpose of this research is to predict the success of the SSRI treatment and to categorize patients into sub-groups according to similar patterns of brain activation to personalize treatment.
Multicenter, open-label, long-term extended access treatment protocol in adult patients with a primary diagnosis of MDD.
