NCT ID: NCT00973934 Completed - Clinical trials for Major Depressive Disorder

Magnetic Seizure Therapy (MST) for the Treatment of Major Depression

MST-2
Start date: April 2002
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

This two-center, between-subject, randomized, double-masked study (n=20) will provide the first evidence for the antidepressant efficacy of Magnetic Seizure Therapy (MST) and contrast the therapeutic properties and side effects of two forms of MST in patients in a major depressive episode (MDE).

NCT ID: NCT00970437 Completed - Clinical trials for Chronic Major Depressive Disorder

A Comparison of Cognitive Behavioral Analysis System of Psychotherapy (CBASP) and System of Supportive Psychotherapy (SYSP) for Early Onset Chronic Depression

Start date: April 2010
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy of the Cognitive Behavioural Analysis System of Psychotherapy (CBASP) with the non-specific System of Supportive Psychotherapy (SYSP)in early onset chronically depressives.

Escitalopram (Lexapro) for Depression MS or ALS

Start date: July 2009
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to see if escitalopram (Lexapro) improves symptoms of major depressive disorder in patients who have ALS or MS.

NCT ID: NCT00962598 Completed - Clinical trials for Depressive Disorder, Major

The Role Of Omega-3 Fatty Acids In Adolescent Depression

Start date: January 2006
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to examine the effects of a 10-week Omega-3 Fatty Acid treatment phase on brain chemistry of adolescents with major depressive disorder (MDD) using proton magnetic resonance imaging.

NCT ID: NCT00961454 Completed - Clinical trials for Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder

Photobiomodulation to Alter Cerebral Blood Flow and to Affect the Emotional Status of Patients With Major Depression

Start date: January 2009
Phase: Phase 1
Study type: Interventional

A pilot study to evaluate the ability of photobiomodulation to alter cerebral blood flow in the frontal poles and to affect the emotional status of patients with major depression.

NCT ID: NCT00960986 Completed - Clinical trials for Major Depressive Disorder (MDD)

A Duloxetine Dosing Strategy Study in Korean Patients With Major Depressive Disorder

Start date: August 2009
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to assess nausea severity in response to four different drug dosing strategies of Duloxetine (30 mg with food, 60 mg with food, 30 mg without food, and 60 mg without food) in Korean patients with major depressive disorder (MDD).

NCT ID: NCT00958204 Completed - Clinical trials for Major Depressive Disorder (MDD)

Light, Ion, and Fluoxetine Efficacy (LIFE) in Depression

Start date: October 2009
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

This study will investigate the additional benefits of light and ion therapy as added treatments to an antidepressant (fluoxetine) in subjects with major depressive disorder (MDD), versus treatment with fluoxetine alone. Outcomes will include depressive symptom rating scales and measures of quality of life, work absence and productivity, and use of health care services. The primary hypotheses are that, in patients with nonseasonal major depressive disorder (MDD) of at least moderate severity: 1) bright light therapy or negative ion therapy will be superior to a placebo condition in reducing symptoms of depression, and 2) the combination of fluoxetine and either bright light or negative ion therapy is more effective than either monotherapy condition.

NCT ID: NCT00956514 Completed - Depression Clinical Trials

Neurophysiologic Predictors of Outcome With rTMS Treatment of Major Depressive Disorder

Start date: July 2009
Phase: Phase 4
Study type: Interventional

Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) therapy has proven to lead to symptom improvement in many individuals with major depressive disorder (MDD), yet there is heterogeneity in outcome, with some patients showing robust remission and other showing minimal symptom change. Identifying which individuals are likely to benefit from TMS therapy early in the course of treatment would support continued treatment for those predicted to do well, and consideration of alternative treatments for others individuals. This study will test specific hypotheses about the relationships between early neurophysiologic changes and later clinical outcome with TMS treatment.
