Filter by:The purpose of this research study is to find out whether Maca Root is effective for treating sexual dysfunction in females that is caused by the treatment for bipolar disorder. An additional aim of the study is to document the safety and tolerability of maca root, as well as any potential side effects that it causes. We suspect that Maca Root will result in a significant reduction in sexual dysfunction when compared to a placebo group.
Many individuals with schizophrenia abuse cannabis at the onset of their illness, portending a poorer course of illness and poorer treatment response. Preliminary evidence suggests that clozapine may uniquely reduce substance use in patients with schizophrenia. The purpose of this study is to establish an effective methodology for studying early treatment with clozapine in patients with co-occurring schizophrenia and cannabis use disorder, while generating pilot data comparing clozapine vs. risperidone on substance use, psychiatric symptoms, side effects, and treatment discontinuation.
The purpose of this study is determine whether the use of topiramate is effective in the treatment of alcohol dependence (i.e. decreases drinking) in patients with bipolar disorder.
The objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of topiramate (250mg) or lamotrigine (250mg) versus placebo in reducing alcohol consumption and decreasing symptoms of PTSD in patients with comorbid AD and PTSD.
Although cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) has been found to be efficacious in the treatment of child anxiety disorders, little progress has been made in the dissemination of such treatments to real-world practice settings. Clinical trials conducted in practice settings can demonstrate the degree to which evidence-based treatments are appropriate for larger scale dissemination. This study evaluates CBT as a treatment for child anxiety disorders in the elementary school clinic setting. A randomized, controlled trial design has been employed, comparing immediate treatment and a three-month waitlist. The trial is being conducted in several Los Angeles area elementary schools and is only available to children in these particular schools. To ensure that the CBT intervention is flexible and capable of matching the characteristics of various school settings, clinicians, and referred children, a modular treatment approach is employed. The study design includes elements to ensure high quality data, such as the use of independent evaluators and tests of treatment fidelity. Children, ages 5 to 12 years, are referred by teachers and staff or are identified as having high anxiety in concurrent studies. All participating children have DSM-IV diagnoses of separation anxiety disorder, generalized anxiety disorder, or social phobia, according to a semi-structured diagnostic interview. Therapy and clinical supervision is provided by the research team. It is hypothesized that children receiving immediate treatment will have significantly lower anxiety scores than children assigned to the waitlist at the posttreatment/postwaitlist assessment. If results are favorable, further exploration of dissemination of CBT into school clinic settings may be indicated.
This Sub-registry is a multicenter, international, longitudinal, observational, and voluntary program designed to track pregnancy outcomes for any pregnant woman enrolled in the Pompe Registry, regardless of whether she is receiving disease-specific therapy (such as ERT with alglucosidase alfa or avalglucosidase alfa) and irrespective of the commercial product with which she may be treated. No experimental intervention is given; thus a patient will undergo clinical assessments and receive standard of care treatment as determined by the patient's physician. The primary objective of this Sub-registry is to track pregnancy outcomes, including complications and infant growth, in all women with Pompe disease during pregnancy, regardless of whether they receive disease-specific therapy, such as ERT with alglucosidase alfa or avalglucosidase alfa.
The objective of this trial is to compare in an open trial format the efficacy of association of clomipramine and quetiapine with SSRI after SSRI treatment failed to produce complete remission of obsessive compulsive disorder symptoms.
This study will compare the safety and efficacy of [S,S]-reboxetine to atomoxetine in the treatment of adult patients with attention deficity-hyperactivity disorder.
This study was conducted to investigate the efficacy of treatment with Org 50081 (Esmirtazapine) compared to placebo in elderly participants with chronic primary insomnia. Primary efficacy variable is Wake time After Sleep Onset (WASO), averaged over all in-treatment time points and measured by polysomnography (PSG).
The current study is a 52-week safety study in elderly outpatients with chronic primary insomnia randomized to treatment with 1.5 mg or 3.0 mg of esmirtazapine (Org 50081, SCH 900265, MK-8265) to investigate the safety and tolerability of long-term treatment with esmirtazapine in elderly patients.
