Active clinical trials for "Depressive Disorder, Major"

This study is to evaluate that (SEROQUEL®) quetiapine sustained-release is efficacious and safe in the treatment of patients with MDD.

In this study, the investigators test whether a 4-week 12-session attention bias modification treatment (ABMT) could reduce depressive symptoms relative to placebo controls in young adults with major depressive disorder at post-training and 3-month follow-ups. Meanwhile, the investigators also test whether a 2-week 4-session ABMT booster training for every three months could reduce residual depressive symptoms and recurrences relative to placebo controls for 1-year follow-up

To evaluate the relapse prevention of AXS-05 relative to placebo in subjects with treatment resistant depression (TRD). This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to evaluate AXS-05 compared to placebo in delaying relapse of depressive symptoms in patients with TRD who are in stable remission after treatment with AXS-05.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the comfort of the NeuroStar® Advanced Therapy System regular prescribed TMS protocol versus a New Feature.

The objects of this study is to assess the relative bioavailability (BA) of 80 mg LY03005 oral tablets compared to 50 mg Pristiq® oral tablets after a single oral intake under fasting conditions in healthy subjects between 18 and 50 years of age.

Currently, our best psychological treatments for anxiety and mood disorders only focus on individual diagnoses. So, there are separate treatments for Panic Disorder, or Depressive Disorder, or Social Anxiety, etc. These 'diagnosis-specific' treatments work well for people whose problems fit neatly into a single diagnosis. However, they work far less well for people with complex problems involving multiple diagnoses, and 50% of patients fail to respond well to these existing treatments. The purpose of this study is to test a new psychological treatment for anxiety and mood problems (the Modular Protocol for Mental Health [MPMH]). Instead of focusing on any single diagnosis, MPMH combines the best treatment techniques into 10 modules to target problems common across all of the different mood and anxiety diagnoses (e.g., intense emotions, negative thinking, upsetting memories, distressing habits). MPMH should therefore be a better treatment for the large numbers of individuals whose problems do not fit neatly into a single diagnosis and for whom any treatments targeting a single diagnosis would leave significant difficulties unaddressed.

The study is a three year research project whose aims are to evaluate the willingness of individuals with serious mental illness to initiate the two illness self-management interventions- WRAP or FOCUS, to examine and compare participant engagement, satisfaction, and outcomes (symptoms, recovery, quality of life) in the two interventions.

Our collection of memories for personal experiences plays an important role in shaping our sense of who we are as people. These memories, termed autobiographical memories, can also be helpful in social situations, for sharing the details of our experiences with other people, reminiscing about pleasant times and solving problems by remembering what has and hasn't worked in the past. Different types of autobiographical memory are helpful to us depending on the particular situation the investigators are in at the time. Recent research has shown that experiencing depressed mood can affect how we relate to our autobiographical memories, so that instead of providing a rich source of personal information in a helpful and flexible way, the types of memories that come to mind are more narrowly focused on difficult or negative experiences. This can cause low mood to persist over time. The purpose of this study is to test a newly-developed therapeutic training package for depressed mood (MemFlex), designed to encourage helpful and flexible ways of relating to autobiographical memories. The MemFlex programme consists of a one-to-one orientation session with the researcher to introduce the training package, followed by a workbook that is completed at home.

This study will assess the helpfulness of the integrated call center in optimizing use of the Digital Medicine System in adult subjects with Schizophrenia, Major Depressive Disorder, or Bipolar Disorder taking oral aripiprazole.

Post-hoc analysis of psychotherapy outcome data suggest that psychodynamic techniques for Major Depressive Disorder are differentially efficacious dependent on personality traits of the patient. More specifically, supportive techniques are hypothesized to be more efficacious for dependent patients, interpretative techniques to be more efficacious for self-critical patients, and mixed supportive/interpretative techniques to be more efficacious for mixed dependent/self-critical patients. Moreover, supportive techniques are hypothesized to impact on depressive symptoms through increased relational capacities while interpretative techniques impact through increased self-understanding. These hypotheses are tested in an experimental single case design with three dependent, three self-critical and three mixed dependent/self-critical depressive patients. These patients go through a time-limited (50 sessions) experimental treatment which exists of a sequence of four A phases (control conditions), one B phase (supportive techniques only), one C phase (interpretative techniques only), and one BC phase (mixed supportive/interpretative techniques).
