Filter by:The investigators are testing two digital health interventions for obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD). The investigators hope that these digital health programs will increase access to treatment for OCD.
Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) has been shown in several previous clinical trials to be an effective treatment for obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). However, the neural working mechanisms of rTMS in OCD are unknown, and the optimal stimulation sites have not yet been established. Our study aims to compare the clinical and neurobiological effects of three different rTMS stimulation protocols in OCD patients. 8 weeks of rTMS therapy will be delivered in combination with cognitive behavioural therapy. Multimodal neuroimaging will be carried out before and after treatment in order to demonstrate the neurobiological effects of the therapy.
To investigate the benefits and harms, and the neural and neurocognitive mediators of treatment response, in family-based cognitive behavioural therapy versus family-based psychoeducation and relaxation training in children and adolescents with obsessive compulsive disorder. The aim is to conduct this investigation in an optimal trial design with the lowest possible risk of bias.
The purpose of this study is to provide participants diagnosed with obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD) and completed one of the active study protocols at the Rodriguez Lab, with open/aftercare treatment.
This research study is for participants that have been diagnosed with intractable Obsessive -compulsive disorder (OCD). OCD is a persistent and oftentimes disabling disorder marked by unwanted and distressing thoughts (obsessions) and irresistible repetitive behaviors. OCD affects 2-3% of the US population, and is responsible for substantial functional impairment and increased risk of early death. The only established first-line treatments for OCD are cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) with exposure/response prevention and certain medications. About 30-40% of patients fail to respond and few experience complete symptom resolution. Up to 25% of patients have difficulty tolerating CBT and the risk of relapse after therapies remains large. For the most severe cases, neurosurgery (surgery in the brain), has long been the option of last resort. In this study the investigators want develop an adaptive Deep Brain Stimulation (aDBS) system to use in subjects with intractable (hard to control) OCD. Deep brain stimulation remains investigational for OCD patients and is not considered standard therapy. DBS involves the surgical implantation of leads and electrodes into specific areas of the brain, which are thought to influence the disease. A pack implanted in the chest, called the neurotransmitter, keeps the electrical current coursing to the brain through a wire that connects the neurotransmitter and electrodes. It is believed deep brain stimulation may restore balance to dysfunctional brain circuitry implicated in OCD. The goal of this study is to enhance current approaches to DBS targeting in the brain and to use a novel approach to find a better and more reliable system for OCD treatment. Phase Ia is to gather data to eventually develop a prototype adaptive DBS system for intractable OCD that uses signals from the brain to automatically adjust the DBS stimulation factors. The overall goal is to improve symptom management and reduce stimulation-induced behavioral side effects.
This study will evaluate whether psilocybin, a hallucinogenic drug, improves symptoms of obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD), whether it is safely tolerated as treatment of OCD, and will investigate the mechanisms by which it works.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of troriluzole as adjunctive therapy versus placebo in participants with obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD) who had an inadequate response to selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI), clomipramine, venlafaxine, or desvenlafaxine treatment
The purpose of this study is to investigate if therapist-guided internet-delivered cognitive behavioral therapy (ICBT) in a stepped-care approach is an effective and cost-effective treatment in reducing OCD symptoms for children and adolescents compared to gold standard treatment (face-to-face CBT).
This study involves the use of the Medtronic PC+S deep brain stimulation for the treatment of intractable OCD.
This project will test a measure of treatment quality, Exposure Guide, for therapists using exposure therapy for youths and young adults with anxiety or OCD. We anticipate that users of this measure will be able to complete it reliably, find it acceptable, and that the measure will predict patient outcome. This project will include 40 therapists treating 300 anxious youth and young adults ages 5-25 at a large community mental health agency. Results of this study will establish the Exposure Guide as a measure of exposure quality in real world settings.
