View clinical trials related to Treatment Resistant Depression.
Filter by:Mood disorders, such as depression and bipolar disorder, are difficult to treat. One reason is that there are no objective ways to measure how these disorders affect the body and respond to different treatments. In this study, researchers want to perform tests on people undergoing clinical care for mood disorders. The purpose is to understand the experience of receiving treatment for depression, bipolar disorder, and suicide risk. We also hope that this study will help us to predict which medications will improve thoughts of suicide. People 18 years or older who are receiving treatment for depression, bipolar disorder, or suicide risk may take part in this study. Participants must have also been enrolled in protocol 01-M-0254. This study will be conducted at the NIH Clinical Center in Bethesda, MD. The study typically lasts up to 12 weeks, but may last longer if a participant s treatment continues past that time. Participants will have weekly interviews and questionnaires while they are being treated for their mood disorder. Other tests are optional and include psychological testing, blood draws, sleep tests, and imaging scans. These will be done at the start and the end of research participation....
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of bilateral stimulation of the subcallosal cingulate white matter (SCCwm) using Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) as an adjunctive treatment of non-psychotic unipolar Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) in adults.
This is a pilot study examining the delivery of a remotely delivered, one-on-one, individualized physical activity (PA) program in adult participants with treatment-resistant depression (TRD).
Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic stimulation (rTMS) is an FDA-approved therapy for treatment resistant depression (TRD) that involves brief magnetic stimulation pulses on the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) brain region. But studies of rTMS alone show remission rates of ~30%. Additionally, rTMS has not been shown to improve cognitive functioning that may be an independent factor predicting treatment success. This study will develop a novel multimodal treatment, which combines intermittent theta burst stimulation (iTBS) - a type of rTMS with digital mindfulness training to engage brain plasticity, enhance cognition and alleviate depression symptoms in individuals with TRD.
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and feasibility of performing psilocybin-assisted psychotherapy in patients hospitalized for treatment-resistant depression.
In this double-blind, randomized, sham-controlled trial, the investigators aimed to examine the effect of accelerated piTBS on suicide risk in a group of treatment-resistant patients with MDD (i.e., TRD), using an extensive suicide assessment scale the primary outcome. The investigators hypothesized that this intensified treatment protocol would be safe in TRD patients with suicide ideations and would result in significant decreases in suicide risk in the active treatment condition as compared to the sham condition.
This study is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial aimed at exploring the effectiveness and safety of rTMS intervention with DMPFC targets guided by pBFS in patients with treatment-resistant depression.
The purpose of this study is to see if one or two doses of psilocybin is more effective in relieving depressive symptoms in patients with treatment-resistant depression (TRD). Researchers also want to know if a second dose of psilocybin is safe and well-tolerated. This study will see if psilocybin is effective, safe, and well-tolerated by tracking changes in depressive symptoms, suicidality, and side effects. This study will also see if a second dose of psilocybin has an effect on quality of life, functioning, cognition (thinking, reasoning, remembering), and how long depressive symptoms improve (or worsen) after psilocybin is administered.
The goal of this single-arm, observational pilot study is to learn about the safety, feasibility, preliminary efficacy of TMS for the treatment of depression in people with MS. Participants will receive outpatient TMS treatment over the course of 5-6 weeks. Participants will complete validated questionnaires and exams before, during, and after treatment.
The goal of this clinical trial is to test how well psilocybin-assisted therapy works in treating people with depression. The main questions this study aims to answer are: - Does psilocybin with assisted therapy help improve symptoms for people with depression? - How long do the effects of this treatment last? Participants will: - Take part in a couple of screening and preparation visits. - Be given psilocybin in one or two treatment sessions. - Attend a series of follow-up sessions over the following year. - Complete forms and surveys to test how their symptoms have changed and what they thought of their experience. Researchers will also compare whether one treatment or two treatments help improve symptoms more for participants.
