Targeting Cognitive Immunization in Depression

Major Depressive Disorder

Research has shown that people suffering from MDD tend to maintain dysfunctional expectations despite experiences that disconfirm expectations. Recently, it has been shown that this persistence of expectations is due to maladaptive information processing involving "cognitive immunization". This experimental study aims at testing three different strategies to inhibit cognitive immunization, in order to enhance expectation change.

Clinical Effect of dTMS in Major Depressive Disorder

MAjor Depressive Disorder

Aim: To test if there is a relation between deep Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (dTMS) dose and clinical effect on Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) Method: 30 patients with moderate to severe MDD without concurrent medication will be randomised to three different treatment protocols of dTMS. Symptom severity of MDD will be quantified before, during and after dTMS.

Incomplete Response in Late-Life Depression: Getting to Remission With Buprenorphine

Major Depressive DisorderDepression

The Investigators are conducting a research study to learn about the safety and benefit of using a medication called buprenorphine for patient with difficult to treat depression . This research study is testing whether combining two medications will be effective in treating depression when initial treatment with just one antidepressant does not relieve the depressive symptoms ; this is what is called " difficult to treat depression " or " treatment resistant depression ". The two medication the investigators are using are " an anti-depressant medication called venlafaxine XR ( the generic form of Effexor ) and buprenorphine . Buprenorphine is a medication that is FDA approved for the treatment of opioid dependence. The investigators are testing whether adding buprenorphine to venlafaxine enhances treatment response.

The Effect of Problem Solving Therapy and Antidepressant Therapy on Cerebral Perfusion and Brain...

Major Depressive Disorder

The focus of this study is to gather preliminary data regarding the effects of a psychological therapy-Problem Solving Therapy-and an antidepressant medication-sertraline-on 1) cerebral perfusion (CP), 2) brain derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), and 3) measures of cognitive function in subjects with late life major depression (LLMD). This research goal will be achieved by recruiting 38 individuals over the age of 65 with LLMD. The primary outcomes will be change in CP, change in BDNF, and change in cognitive measures from baseline to the end of 12 weeks of either therapy. We will also examine predictors of treatment outcome including severity of executive dysfunction, baseline BDNF concentrations, and baseline CP measures. The baseline neuropsychological testing, brain imaging, and depression assessment will be obtained in a companion study (PI S. Mackin; CHR #H42689-32681-01) that is IRB approved and is already in progress. In the current study a baseline serum BDNF level will be added to Dr. Mackin's protocol. Patients will then receive either 12 weeks of Problem Solving Therapy or antidepressant treatment with sertraline. Both treatments are evidence based and commonly administered in our clinic. Outcome variables will be measures of depression severity, the BDNF serum concentration, cerebral perfusion using a MRI arterial spin labeling (ASL) technique and cognitive changes in memory and executive dysfunction. This is a preliminary or pilot study. The primary objectives are to determine if the methods appear feasible and to determine if change in BDNF or CP occur after treatment and secondarily to determine if there are changes in cognitive functioning. The study is not powered to show differences between treatments. The hypotheses are 1) PST will result in increased perfusion in frontal regions of the brain but that frontal perfusion will not change with sertraline; 2)sertraline will result in an increase in BDNF but PST will not. Change in cognitive measures of memory, learning, and executive dysfunction will be examined on an exploratory basis.

African American Depression Intervention Trial (AADI)

Major Depressive Disorder

Primary Aim 1: Examine effectiveness of the Oh Happy Day Class (OHDC) compared to the Coping With Depression (CWD)in increasing retention, adherence, engagement, satisfaction, and treatment-seeking. The investigators hypothesize the OHDC compared to the CWD will result in greater increases in: 1a. retention, 1b. adherence, 1c. engagement, and 1d. satisfaction at the middle and end of the intervention, and 2.e. greater increase in treatment-seeking 3-, 6-, 9-, and 12- months post-intervention. Outcome measures: logs: attendance, homework completion, class-participation level; Client Satisfaction Inventory; and Cornell Service Index. Primary Aim 2: Examine effectiveness of the OHDC in reducing symptoms of depression at the middle and immediate end of the intervention, and 3-, 6-, 9-, and 12- months post-intervention. The investigators hypothesize the OHDC will result in greater reduction in depressive symptoms compared to the CWD at 3-months post-intervention. Outcome measures: Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale and Quick Inventory of Depression Symptoms. Secondary Aim 3: Examine the effectiveness of the OHDC in improving self-reports of mental and physical health status and reducing self-reports of perceived disability. The investigators hypothesize the OHDC compared to the CWD will result in greater self-report of: 3a. improved mental and physical health status, and 3b. reduced self-report of disability at the immediate end of the intervention and 3-,6-, 9-, 12- months post-intervention. Outcome measures: SF-12 Health Survey, and World Health Organization Disability Assessment Schedule. Public Health Impact: Based on CAI research, the OHDC has the potential to be four times more effective than the CWD. If our hypotheses are proven, the OHDC will be the first evidence-based culturally adapted depression intervention designed specifically for African American men and women between the ages of 30-60.
