Filter by:The purpose of this study is to investigate the (cost)effectiveness of mindfulness based cognitive therapy (MBCT) compared to that of antidepressant medication, and its combination with regard to the prevention of relapse or recurrence in patients with recurrent depression.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of deep brain rTMS, (Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation), a new experimental procedure using the H-Coil, in subjects with Major Depressive Disorder that have been previously unsuccessfully treated with antidepressant medications.
Representative payees, mostly family members, manage Social Security Administration funds of more than one million people with psychiatric disabilities. Although studies show payeeship can be used coercively, foster dependency, reduce work incentives, lead to family conflict and even violence, there has been little systematic research on how to lower these significant barriers to community integration. The investigators' long term goal is to promote recovery among adults with psychiatric disabilities who have payees by reducing downsides associated with what has been called "the nation's largest guardianship system." The investigators' objective in the current application is to evaluate a pilot-tested, stakeholder-informed intervention that is grounded in principles of psychiatric rehabilitation and encourages consumers with psychiatric disabilities and their family members to collaborate within the representative payee arrangement.
The primary goal of the pilot is to test the feasibility and utility of using a text-messaging system to engage adolescents in improved homework adherence during cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) for major depressive disorder.
This study will examine whether measures of brain electrical signals taken after a week of antidepressant medication treatment can predict whether a full treatment regimen will be effective.
This study will determine how people with depression differ from healthy people in brain activity and interpreting emotions, both before and after receiving a psychotherapy treatment.
Do functional brain changes occur during Venlafaxine ER (extended release) versus Fluoxetine treatment and do changes in selective structures, such as the amygdala, predict treatment response?
To evaluate the efficacy of SPD489 when used as augmentation to an antidepressant in the treatment of major depressive disorder (MDD) as measured by mean change in total Montgomery-Ǻsberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS) scores.
The purpose of this study is to test if GSK163090 can reduce the symptoms of depression. The safety and how well the body can handle the drug will also be investigated. The study will be conducted in Russia in hospitalised patients with severe depression. GSK163090 will be compared with placebo, which looks like the study drug but does not contain any active substance. Subjects will be given either the study drug or the matching placebo.
The proposed study is for a 6 week open-label clinical trial in which Seroquel XR is added to a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) medication for the treatment of depressive and/or anxiety symptoms. Each subject will self-report changes in symptoms, functional impairment, etc. on a twice daily basis using a handheld computer (HHC) that transmits real-time symptoms reports to a central database. Each subject will be assessed in-person on a weekly or biweekly basis during the course of the study.
