Filter by:The primary objective of this study is to confirm that LY2216684 is not an inhibitor of cytochrome P450 1A2 (CYP1A2) in healthy participants using theophylline as a probe substrate for the enzyme. Because LY2216684 has been observed to increase heart rate in some healthy participants, this study will also assess heart rate when coadministered with theophylline.
The purpose of this study is to measure how much of the study drugs (clopidogrel and LY2216684) reach the blood stream and how long it takes the body to dispose of them and to determine how clopidogrel and LY2216684 might affect each other in the body. Information about any side effects that may occur will also be collected.
Electroconvulsive therapy (ECT), is considered the most effective treatment for severe treatment resistant major depressive disorder (MDD), but it requires about 3 weeks of treatments and can cause considerable acute deficits in memory. It would be a major advance in treatment if ECT could work faster with fewer treatments and result in decrease incidence of memory problems. Ketamine is an excellent candidate for augmentation of ECT because of its acute effects on depression, its short half-life, and its safety profile when given at low doses. Ketamine is given as an infusion and could easily be incorporated into the routine management of patients undergoing ECT, but has never been evaluated prospectively in this context. The investigators propose to assess the efficacy, feasibility, tolerability and safety of N-methyl-D-aspartate antagonist augmentation of ECT using ketamine.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of Levomilnacipran ER for the treatment of fatigue associated with major depressive disorder (MDD).
LY2216684 is being studied as adjunctive treatment for major depressive disorder (MDD) in participants who are partial responders to selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs). Sertraline is a medication that is widely used to treat MDD and is a known substrate of cytochrome P450s (CYP450s), including CYP450 2D6 (CYP2D6), CYP450 2C19 (CYP2C19), CYPP450 3A4 (CYP3A4), and a modest inhibitor of CYP2D6. Based on the diversity of hepatic metabolic clearance pathways for LY2216684 and its elimination by the kidney, it is expected that CYP2D6 inhibition by sertraline will not result in a substantial change in the pharmacokinetic (PK) profile of LY2216684. LY2216684 is only known to be a moderate inhibitor of CYP2C19, so it is unlikely that coadministration of sertraline with LY2216684 will result in a clinically meaningful change in the PK of sertraline. This study is being conducted to test these hypotheses.
Persons with serious mental illness are at increased risk of cardiovascular disease. The goals of this study are to test a treatment, Life Goals Collaborative Care to help promote health behavior change and to get feedback from patients and providers on what is needed to help better coordinate and physical and mental health care of these patients.
The purpose of this study is to measure if there is any difference in how the body breaks down or inactivates either fluoxetine or LY2216684 when both of these medicines are given together. This study will look at how fluoxetine might affect LY2216684 and how giving LY2216684 might affect fluoxetine in the body. The duration of study participation in this study is approximately 36 days not including the screening appointment. This study requires 1 research unit confinement of 29 days/28 nights followed by 1 outpatient appointment. A screening appointment is required within 30 days prior to the start of the study.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether an oxytocin ad-on, or oxytocin and tibolone ad-on can induce a response to antidepressants in patients with treatment resistant depression.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether GLYX-13 reduces depression score in patients with treatment-resistant depression.
Patients with major depression who are on a waiting list for psychotherapy usually suffer from considerable symptoms. Online self-help is one potential way to alleviate this suffering. The investigators want to study if patients awaiting psychotherapy benefit from online-self help. The investigators therefore randomly assign patients to either online self-help or no intervention and assess their depressive symptoms on a regular basis. The investigators hypothesize that online self-help will be superior to no intervention in alleviating depressive symptoms in depressed patients awaiting psychotherapy.
