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).
To explore the effectiveness and safety of rTMS intervention with different targets in the left prefrontal cortex defined using the pBFS method, in adult patients with moderate and severe depressive disorder. Second, investigate the neural circuit that responds to the rTMS intervention using individualized brain image analysis, which may help to establish an effective target for the neuromodulation of patients with major depressive disorder.
The researchers are trying to test the feasibility and acceptability of using transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS) in hospitalized adult patients with Treatment Resistant Depression (TRD), assess for any preliminary effect on depressive and cognitive symptoms, and explore the utility of biomarkers to assess response to tDCS.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of psilocybin on the symptom of anhedonia in individuals with treatment-resistant major depressive disorder.
This trial aims to investigate the effect of twice-daily 15 mA transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS) through three conductive electrodes attached to the scalp in subjects with treatment-resistant depression (TRD). Two hundred adult subjects with TRD will be included in this randomized, double-blind, parallelized, multi-centre study. The primary outcome is the change of the Montgomery-Asberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS) after four weeks of tACS.
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and feasibility of sequencing psilocybin therapy with a short-duration, aiTBS protocol (Stanford Accelerated Intelligent Neuromodulation Therapy, or SAINT) in individuals with treatment-resistant major depressive disorder.
Clinical studies, with a distinct focus on treatment resistant depression, play a crucial role in evaluating the safety and effectiveness of novel treatments. These trials serve as instrumental means to determine whether new medications surpass conventional therapies, providing substantial evidence for their broader adoption. The primary objective is to meticulously scrutinize trial completion rates and voluntary withdrawals within this specific patient group.
This study will investigate the anti-anhedonic efficacy of a novel neurostimulation strategy termed accelerated intermittent theta burst stimulation (aiTBS) in participants with treatment resistant depression (TRD).
