Filter by:This study will determine whether Living with Hope, a novel, 12-week coping skills class, reduces suicidal thoughts and behaviors among individuals who have made a recent suicide attempt. It is hypothesized that participants who complete the class will show significant improvements on measures of suicidal thoughts, hopelessness, and related mental health symptoms, and these improvements will be maintained over time.
NMDA antagonist drugs have increasingly been demonstrated to reduce symptoms of depression and suicidal ideation. NeuroRx has developed a sequential therapy consisting of IV NRX-100 (ketamine HCL) for rapid stabilization of symptoms of depression and suicidal ideation followed by oral NRX-101 (fixed dose combination of D-cycloserine and lurasidone) for maintenance of stabilization from symptoms of depression and suicidal ideation. This study will test the hypothesis that that NRX-100 is superior to placebo in achieving rapid reduction in symptoms of depression and suicidal ideation in patients with Severe Bipolar Depression and Acute Suicidal Ideation or Behavior within 24 hours of administration.

NeuroRx has developed a sequential therapy consisting of IV NRX-100 (ketamine HCL) for rapid stabilization of symptoms of depression and suicidal ideation followed by oral NRX-101 (fixed dose combination of D-cycloserine and lurasidone) for maintenance of stabilization from symptoms of depression and suicidal ideation. NRX-101 has been awarded Fast Track and Breakthrough Therapy Designation by the US Food and Drug Administration. The SevereBD study will test the hypothesis that NRX-101 is superior to lurasidone alone in maintaining remission from symptoms of depression (primary endpoint), clinical relapse (declared secondary endpoint), and suicidal ideation or behavior (declared secondary endpoint) over a six week period of twice-daily oral dosing.
This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study of the investigational drug uridine as a treatment for suicidal ideation in veterans. The investigators hypothesize that the administration of a naturally occurring dietary supplement, uridine, will rapidly reduce suicidal ideation in veterans. The purpose of this study is to determine whether 4 weeks of uridine supplementation is an effective treatment for suicidal ideation in veterans, when compared to a group taking a placebo.
Suicide is the second leading cause of death for American Indians and Alaska Natives aged 18 years and older. This study will evaluate Caring Contacts, a low-cost, sustainable intervention for suicide prevention that sends caring messages to people at risk. The investigators will implement the intervention at four tribal sites, leveraging community strengths and values to address this tragic health disparity in an underserved minority population.
This randomized trial compares peer companionship to care-as-usual in primary care on the outcome of risk for suicidal behavior in late life. The investigators hypothesize that older adults assigned to receive peer companionship will report greater social connectedness and less death and suicidal ideation compared to older adults assigned to care as usual.
This study will implement and empirically evaluate the efficacy of a cognitive behavioral intervention program, titled, Post Admission Cognitive Therapy(PACT), for military service members and beneficiaries [with Veterans expected to be added] admitted for inpatient care due to severe suicide ideation and/or a recent suicide attempt.
The acutely suicidal patient presents a complex and dangerous clinical dilemma. Many suicidal patients receive antidepressant medications, but the onset of action of these medications is at least three weeks, and despite their established antidepressant effect, they have not shown a clear anti-suicidal benefit. Psychoanalysts hypothesized that depression (often leading to suicidality) shares important characteristics with the psychological sequellae of object loss and separation distress. Endogenous opioids (endorphines) have been implicated in mediating social bonding and separation distress in mammals. Anecdotal evidence and several clinical studies found the mixed opioid agonist-antagonist buprenorphine to be an effective antidepressant with a rapid onset of action. It is therefore hypothesized that buprenorphine may be a novel and quick-acting treatment for acute suicidality, especially in the context of depression. The proposed double-blind study will examine the effect of buprenorphine on acutely suicidal inpatients. Depression, suicidality, and overall functioning will be assessed before, during and after a two-week buprenorphine/placebo trial. A small subgroup of patients will also be treated with short-term psychoanalytic psychotherapy throughout the study period. It is hypothesized that subjects who receive the active drug will show rapid improvements in objective and subjective measures of suicidality and depression.
