Active clinical trials for "Bipolar Disorder"

This is a smoking cessation study that will enroll smokers who have been diagnosed with a severe mental illness. The study will use a combination of intensive tobacco treatment counseling and nicotine replacement therapy to assist smokers in cutting back on and quitting smoking over the course of six months.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether early integrated prophylactic combined medical and psychological outpatient treatment is associated with a better prognosis in patients with severe unipolar and bipolar affective disorders than standard treatment.

A systematic open-label prospective pilot study to assess aripirazole for acute bipolar depression, with a secondary assessment of longer-term mood stabilization.

OBJECTIVES: Primary Objective: To assess the objective (polysomnographic) changes in sleep quality before and after introduction of olanzapine in treatment of patients with depression. Secondary Objectives: To assess the subjective changes in sleep quality parameters before and at different stages after introduction of olanzapine in treatment, longitudinally, and to correlate these changes with measures of illness severity and changes in cognition. STUDY DESIGN: Prospective, double blind, randomized polysomnographic (PSG) study of patients before and after treatment with olanzapine. PSG recordings will be done three times throughout the study: before starting olanzapine augmentation (baseline), at day 3 to 5 (acute) and day 28 to 31 (chronic). PSG will be completed at patients' homes with a portable PSG. Psychiatric scales, subjective sleep quality scales, and cognition measurements will be completed at each visit.

The purpose of the study is to determine whether aripiprazole provides additional clinical benefit to patients with Bipolar I disorder when combined with lithium or valproate over 12 weeks.

This study is designed to test whether low-field magnetic stimulation (LFMS) can relieve some of the symptoms of depression in bipolar disorder or major depression.

The purpose of this study was to compare a group psychotherapy intervention, the Integrative Outpatient Model, to a convenience control, in adults with bipolar disorder.

Bipolar disorder is characterized by mood swings that range from from high (manic) to low (depressed) states. Sometimes, symptoms of both depression and mania are present (mixed episodes). Asenapine is an investigational medication for the treatment of manic or mixed episodes of bipolar disorder. Patients who completed study A7501006 (a 9 week extension study) could continue with the same treatment that they had been receiving: asenapine or olanzapine (a medication that is already approved for the treatment of bipolar mania) in a 40 -week continuation study.

The purpose of this study is to develop and evaluate an intervention that adapts Community Reinforcement and Family Training (CRAFT) for families experiencing first episode psychosis and substance use delivered via telemedicine (video conferencing). The intervention aims to improve treatment engagement and reduce distress, and it will be delivered via telemedicine (CRAFT-FT). To assess feasibility of the intervention, family members will complete the sessions and provide feedback to refine the treatment manual. Data on client relatives with psychosis will be collected for preliminary assessment purposes. Client relatives will not complete the research study intervention.

This Pharmacokinetic (PK) study is going to provide supplemental PK data for supporting bipolar Phase III study for New Drug Application (NDA) filing according to regulatory requirement. The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the PK of lamotrigine following repeat dosing of lamotrigine dispersible tablet in healthy Chinese subjects. This study consisted of Screening Phase (Days-14 to 0), Open-label Phase (Days 1 to 51) and follow-up Phase (10-17 days after last dosing). After signing the informed consent and confirm the eligibility, subjects will start dosing with lamotrigine 25 mg dispersible tablet once daily at Day 1 and remain at this dose level for two weeks (Days 1-14), then will be titrated to 50 mg once daily at Day 15 and last for weeks 3-4 (Days 15-28), and then titrated to 100 mg once daily at Day 29 during weeks 5-6 (Days 29-42). The total duration of the study will be approximately 10 weeks including screening and follow-up phase.
