Active clinical trials for "Depression"

This study will be conducted as a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multi-center Phase 2b study. Approximately 180 subjects with treatment resistant depression who meet all eligibility criteria will be enrolled.

Inclusion criteria: 1. patient over 20 years old with depression diagnosed by a psychiatrist and MADRS >= 25 scores; 2. failed to improve by at least optimal dosage of two antidepressants for four weeks and one psychotherapy. Patients and outcome assessors will be blinded from intervention the patients have. Participants will be randomized into two groups that are intervention (ketamine 0.5 mg/kg IV drip in 40 minutes) and control (midazolam 0.045 mg/kg IV drip in 40 minutes) groups. Participants will administer ketamine/midazolam once daily for three consecutive days. They will be evaluate MADRS changing, vital signs, dissociative symptoms, CGI, and quality of life (EQ-5D-5L) during the treatment, at 1 week and 4 weeks after treatment completion.

The aim of this study is to test the hypothesis that low-frequency rTMS (LFR) works as well as the established intermittent thetaburst rTMS (iTBS) treatment for treatment resistant depression (TRD).

This is a randomized, sham-controlled trial to determine whether treatment with transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is superior to a sham condition at reducing the symptoms of depression in pregnant people with moderate to severe depression. The study aims to enrol 156 participants across all sites. Data collection occurs at baseline, immediately after treatment, every 4 weeks during pregnancy and 4-, 12-, 26- and 52-weeks postpartum

This study will test a psychological intervention for the treatment of distress related to infertility. The intervention will pair reading a book "The Mindful Self-Compassion Workbook" by Kristin Neff with guided meditations using the Centre for Mindfulness Studies mobile app. Individuals with infertility will complete the 8-week program and complete psychological outcome measures before and after.

This study is open to adults with depression (major depressive disorder) for whom standard treatment with antidepressants alone does not work sufficiently. The purpose of the trial is to find out whether a medicine called BI 1358894 helps to improve symptoms of depression. Four different doses of BI 1358894 are tested in the study. Participants continue their standard antidepressant therapy throughout the study. Participants are put into 6 groups by chance. Participants in 4 of the 6 groups take different doses of BI 1358894, and placebo. Participants in the fifth group take quetiapine, a medicine already used to treat depression, and placebo. Participants in the sixth group take placebo only. Participants take BI 1358894, quetiapine, or placebo as tablets. Placebo tablets look like BI 1358894 or quetiapine tablets but do not contain any medicine. Each participant takes tablets twice a day. Participants are in the study for about 3 months. During this time, they visit the study site about 8 times and get about 2 phone calls. At the visits, doctors ask participants about their symptoms. The results between the BI 1358894 groups, the quetiapine group, and the placebo group are then compared. The doctors also regularly check the general health of the participants.

Approximately 200 Participants with mild-to-moderate, untreated depression and/or anxiety will be randomly assigned (by chance, like flipping a coin) to 1 of 3 study groups: Lumen Coached Problem-Solving Treatment (PST) (n=100), Human Coached PST (n=50), and optional (delayed) Lumen Coached PST as waitlist control (n=50) to improve emotional health. All participants will complete assessments at baseline and at 18 weeks post randomization. Depending on the group assignment the PST program will be delivered by Lumen, a virtual voice-based coach on a study iPad, or by a human coach in person for the first session and then via videoconference or phone for the remaining 7 sessions. Participants assigned to the waitlist control group can receive the Lumen coached PST on a study iPad after completing their 18-week follow-up assessment. Participants will receive 8 coaching sessions to learn problem-solving skills and work on unresolved problems in daily living that may be interfering with their emotional well-being and contributing to depression and anxiety symptoms.

The purpose of this study is to expand Adhere.ly- a simple, HIPAA-compliant, web-based platform to help therapists engage clients in practicing therapeutic skills between sessions (homework) during mental health treatment by conducting a trial comparing standard therapy to therapy enhanced with Adhere.ly.

The accuracy of endoscopic optical diagnosis for colorectal polyps has been approaching histological diagnosis after implementation of image enhancement endoscopic technologies. The real-time notification of possible nature of resected polyp after colonoscopy is expected to reduce the anxiety and depression level of the patients before the availability of histological diagnosis and improve their quality of life. We designed and conducted a randomized control trial to confirm this hypothesis.

This is a prospective, single center, randomized treatment study to assess if anxiety and depression in participants with IBD can be improved with CBT compared to those treated with SKY.
