Active clinical trials for "Depressive Disorder, Major"

The purpose of this research study is to study closed-loop transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS) to determine its effects on symptoms of depression in people with major depressive disorder.

This is an outpatient, 2-arm, Phase 3, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to assess the efficacy and safety of REL-1017 once daily (QD) as an adjunctive treatment of Major Depressive Disorder. Study participants will continue to take their current antidepressant therapy in addition to the study drug or placebo for the duration of the treatment period.

This is a 1-year open-label study to access the safety of REL-1017 once daily (QD) as an adjunctive treatment of Major Depressive Disorder. Study participants will continue to take their current antidepressant therapy in addition to the study drug for the duration of the treatment period.

This trial aims to test the feasibility of Magnetic Seizure Therapy (MST) for Depression in patients diagnosed with Parkinson's Disease.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Ammoxetine hydrochloride enteric-coated tablets in subjects with depression.

This study aims to compare the efficacy and safety profile of Magnetic Seizure Therapy and Electroconvulsive therapy.

This study evaluates the antidepressant effects of an accelerated schedule of theta-burst stimulation, termed accelerated intermittent theta-burst stimulation (aiTBS), in individuals with borderline personality disorder (BPD) or trait and comorbid mood depressive disorder (MDD) or bipolar II disorder in a current mood depressive episode (MDE).

Antidepressant-like effects of tadalafil to its ability to modulate transduction pathways responsible for neuroplasticity. Treatment with tadalafil was shown to be PKG-dependent and lead to increased expression of cGMP, pCREB, BDNF and VGF in the hippocampus and prefrontal cortex (PFC), brain areas relevant to mood disorders pathophysiology. Low-dose tadalafil improved both depressive symptoms in patients with erectile dysfunction.

Several open-label trials have shown the therapeutic promise of deep brain stimulation (DBS) targeted to striatal and surrounding capsular areas in treatment-resistant depression (TRD). However, the results of placebo-controlled trials have been mixed, with one showing a large difference between active and sham DBS and another finding no difference. Main aim of this study is establishing whether active DBS results in more treatment responders than sham DBS. Secondary aims are establishing an adverse events profile, establishing effects on quality of life,neuropsychological and neuroimaging measures, and finding predictors of response.

We propose to determine if augmentation of electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) utilized for the treatment of major depressive disorder (MDD) with daily oral creatine will lead to an accelerated response to treatment, an overall increase in response rate, and will protect against cognitive adverse effects associated with ECT. We propose to conduct a two-arm, parallel, randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled trial, with a treatment group receiving 20 g oral loading dose of creatine for 1 week starting the day before initiating ECT, followed by 5 g oral creatine daily for roughly five weeks, including the approximately three-week ECT treatment course and a two-week follow-up period. Response to treatment will be assessed using the Quick Inventory of Depressive Symptomatology (QIDS) at each treatment and the 17-item Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HAM-D17) at the end of each week.
