Filter by:To assess the acute and long-term bimodal efficacy of QTP, as an adjunct to ongoing treatment with lithium (Li) or divalproex (DIV) or lamotrigine (LAM) or any combination of the three thereof, in a group of patients with an index episode of a mixed state in BD.
This study will evaluate the efficacy of paliperidone palmitate compared with placebo in the delay of relapse of the symptoms of schizoaffective disorder. This study will also assess the safety and tolerability of paliperidone palmitate in patients with schizoaffective disorder.
The investigators hypothesize that patients receiving citalopram in combination with lithium will have a greater reduction in depressive symptoms than patients receiving citalopram in combination with placebo.
This is a study of tramadol as an agent for short-term opioid withdrawal treatment. A randomized, double blind clinical trial comparing the efficacy and safety of tramadol to clonidine and buprenorphine in the short-term treatment of opioid withdrawal will be conducted. Opioid dependent participants will be treated on a residential unit. The primary outcome measure is opioid withdrawal symptoms.
The purpose of this study is to assess if LY2216684 (flexible dose of 12 to 18 milligrams [mg] or fixed dose of 6 mg once daily) is superior to placebo once daily in the adjunctive treatment of participants with Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) who were identified as partial responders to an adequate course of treatment with a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) during an 8-week, double-blind, acute adjunctive treatment phase.
Eligible veterans, National Guardsmen & Reservists with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and problems with addiction will be randomly assigned to one of two treatment conditions. All participants will undergo exposure therapy, a gold standard behavioral treatment for PTSD for 10 weeks. In addition to exposure therapy, some participants will be randomly assigned to receive (1) virtual reality (VR)-based exposure to cues for marijuana, cocaine, heroin, cigarette, and/or alcohol use, and (2) cellular phone-based reminders of learning (extinction reminders, or, ERs) to VR exposure (available 24 hours per day/7 days per week) to high-risk contexts for drug use. The main hypothesis is that those participants who receive exposure therapy + VR/ERs will demonstrate less substance use and lower PTSD symptoms during treatment, at post-treatment, and at follow-up than those participants who only receive exposure therapy. At study completion, a total of 123 subjects signed consent.
The primary objective of this study is to assess whether LY2216684 12 milligrams (mg) or 18 mg flexible dose once daily is superior to placebo once daily in the adjunctive treatment of participants with major depressive disorder (MDD) who are partial responders to their selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) treatment.
The study examines actigraphic, observational, psychometric and associated repeated measurements obtained prior to and during psychopharmacological treatment.
Autism spectrum disorders affect as many as 1 out of 150 children and are related to significant impairment in social, adaptive, and school functioning. Co-occurring conditions, such as anxiety, are common and may cause substantial distress and impairment beyond that caused by the autism diagnosis. Although effective interventions have been developed for typically developing youth with anxiety disorders, this approach needs to be adapted for children with autism. Accordingly, we are proposing a randomized controlled trial to examine the effectiveness of CBT relative to treatment as usual (TAU) in 46 youth ages 7-11 with autism spectrum disorders and comorbid anxiety disorder(s).
Comorbid anxiety disorders affect as many as 80% of youth with autism spectrum disorders, causing substantial distress and impairment over and above the autism spectrum diagnosis alone. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) is the gold standard treatment among typically developing youth with an anxiety disorder and when adapted, shows promise in children with ASD and comorbid anxiety. However, there is currently no psychotherapy protocol tailored to meet the unique needs of young adolescents with Autism spectrum disorders (ASD) and comorbid anxiety. Given this, the present study seeks to develop and test a new CBT therapy in adolescents with autism and comorbid anxiety.
