Active clinical trials for "Depressive Disorder"

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the long-term safety and tolerability of vilazodone for the treatment of MDD in pediatric outpatients (7-17 years).

The purpose of the present randomized-controlled trial is to investigate the efficacy of Metacognitive Training for Depression (D-MCT), a new low-threshold, modular group intervention.

The primary aim of this project is to conduct a randomized controlled pilot study evaluating the feasibility and potential effectiveness of a newly developed combined Health At Every Size and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (HAES/ACT) treatment, known as Accept Yourself! compared to a commercial behavioral weight loss program, Weight Watchers (WW). Obese women (BMI ≥ 30) with Major Depressive Disorder will be randomly assigned to one of these two treatments. Depression, physical health, and other psychosocial outcomes will be assessed prior to treatment, at post-treatment, and at 3, 6, 9, and 12-month follow up assessments.

This study evaluates the addition of intranasal oxytocin to the treatment of Major Depression using interpersonal psychotherapy. Half of the participants will receive a placebo adjunct to interpersonal psychotherapy, and the other half will receive oxytocin.

The study aimed to investigate whether transcranial direct current stimulation could improve depressive symptoms, neurocognitive function and modulate heart rate variability in unipolar and bipolar depression.

The study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of ITI-007 in a randomized, double-blind, parallel-group, placebo-controlled, multi-center study in patients diagnosed with Bipolar I or Bipolar II disorder having a major depressive episode.

This study will evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of rapastinel 450 milligrams (mg) compared to placebo adjunctive to antidepressant therapy (ADT) in patients with major depressive disorder (MDD) who have a partial response to ADT.

Specific Aim 1: Finalize development of the closed-loop strategy in the MMT application. Specific Aim 2: Evaluate the acceptability and feasibility of the MMT application with the target population to prepare for a large-scale efficacy trial.

The goal of this proposal is to investigate whether a standard rTMS protocol for depression, including multiple sessions applied to left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) results in reduction of depressive symptoms for adult patients with ASD and MDD (Aim 1). The secondary goal is to investigate and whether there is any beneficial reduction in the core symptoms of autism (Aim 2).

Major depressive disorder (MDD) is highly prevalent and nearly 70% of individuals with MDD do not respond to standard antidepressant therapies despite adequate dosing. An effective and well-tolerated antidepressant augmentation therapy would have important clinical and public health implications. Neuroactive steroid hormones are known to directly activate neurotransmitter receptors in the brain, and thus are potential candidates for augmentation therapies to enhance the effect of traditional antidepressants. The investigators hypothesize that administration of an allopregnanolone analog in women with treatment-resistant depression will improve depressive symptoms.
