Filter by:The goal of this First-In-Human (FIH) trial is to learn about safety and PharmacoKinetics (PK) in healthy adult volunteers. The main questions it aims to answer are: - What is the safety of single ascending doses of the FluoroEthylNorMemantine (FENM)? - What is the PK profile of single ascending doses of the FENM in human? - What is the preliminary exploratory time course of Brain Disease Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF) plasmatic levels of single ascending doses of the FENM? Participants will receive one single oral dose of FENM.
Treatment-resistant depression (TRD) is a common cause of disability and one of the most common psychiatric disorders worldwide. Electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) is currently the most effective treatment for TRD. Recent developments showed esketamine to be a rapid-acting and effective antidepressant drug and it has been hailed as a breakthrough in treating TRD. Common treatment algorithms for TRD list ECT as a treatment option, but esketamine has not yet found its exact position in those algorithms. To the investigators' knowledge, a longitudinal, randomized controlled trial comparing the efficacy of ECT and intranasal esketamine in TRD patients has not been conducted. Furthermore, the investigators intend to measure effects of ECT and intranasal esketamine on brain connectivity and structure, using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI). In this study, inpatients with TRD at the University Hospital for Psychiatry I, Medical University Innsbruck, will be randomized to ECT or intranasal esketamine. Short- and medium-term treatment effects on functional and structural connectivity in the brain will be determined using fMRI.
With this study, the investigators will address the following scientific aims: 1. Demonstrate the antidepressant effects of CBD in human adults with treatment refractory MDD as measured by standard rating scales. 2. Confirm CBD's safety profile in human adult patients with MDD.
This study evaluates an accelerated schedule of theta-burst stimulation using a transcranial magnetic stimulation device for treatment-resistant depression. In a double-blind fashion, half the participants will receive accelerated theta-burst stimulation while half will receive sham treatment.
Moderate-intensity propofol treatments will be administered to participants who are non-responders at the end of Phase 1.
The effectiveness of glabellar injection of botulinum toxin type A (BTA) in treating depression has not yet been investigated in elderly patients. The study aims in addressing the question if glabellar injection of BTA is effective in treating geriatric depression.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of TAK-653 compared with placebo in maintaining the effect of ketamine treatment on depressive symptoms.
The purpose of this research study is to compare the antidepressant effect of lithium versus placebo in adults receiving ketamine. Lithium is available commercially for depression; ketamine is available commercially and can help the symptoms of depression; however, it has not been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for this use. The FDA has allowed the use of this drug in this research study.
This study is aimed to help us learn about the effects of Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation at the forehead versus the left side of the head for treatment of Treatment Resistant Depression.
This is an open label study with a sample size of 6 to develop deep brain stimulation of the subcallosal cingulate white matter(SCCWM) for late life depression using an experimental medicine approach in which the investigators will program the device based both on 1) a neurophysiologic measure of target engagement and 2) safety (defined as lack of neuropsychiatric worsening and stable neurocognition).
