Active clinical trials for "Depressive Disorder"

Schizophrenia is heterogeneous and often disabling a disease that affects 1% of the population. Current psychopharmacological treatment significantly eliminates the presence of positive symptoms (especially delusions and hallucinations) and partly also negative symptoms (social withdrawal or abulia). In contrast, the cognitive deficits associated both with schizophrenia and depression are only limitedly influenced by pharmacological treatment.The cognitive impairment represents an important part of schizophrenia symptomatology and it has a severe negative impact on patients' quality of life. In depression is the impairment milder but still significantly contributes to patients' daily functioning. The profound deficit was repeatedly documented in the area of declarative and working memory. In this study, we study the effectiveness of virtual environment rehabilitation program focused on declarative memory, working memory and attention in comparison to standard paper-pencil rehabilitation led by an occupational therapist.

This study is a multi-center, open-label trial to evaluate the long-term safety and efficacy of AXS-05 in subjects with treatment resistant depression (TRD) and major depressive disorder (MDD).

The primary objective of this study is to test the feasibility and efficacy of Internet-delivered Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) for adolescents (13 - 17 years) with sleep problems (ICBT-I). All participants will receive ICBT-I for six weeks. The investigators will also evaluate the effect of the intervention on comorbid psychiatric symptoms and function.

SPL026 (N,N-dimethyltryptamine [DMT] fumarate) is a psychedelic tryptamine being developed as a therapy for patients with major depressive disorder (MDD).

The aim of the study is to compare the effects of the self-regulation (neurofeedback) of the fMRI signal of the prefrontal cortex in depression to ones of more conventional non-pharmacological treatment, primarily, psychotherapy.

This project aimed to test the efficacy of a telehealth-administered placebo without deception intervention on stress, anxiety, and depression related to the COVID-19 pandemic. Participants were randomized into two groups (open-label placebo vs. no-treatment control). All participants received information on the impact of COVID-19 on psychological health. Participants in the open-label placebo group were instructed to watch an informational video on the beneficial effects of placebos without deception, remotely interact with an experimenter, and take open-label placebo pills twice a day for two weeks. Participants in the no-treatment control group did not receive any intervention. Instead, participants met with an experimenter and reported on their psychological and physical health. The investigators predicted that the placebo without deception group would exhibit substantially reduced stress, depression, and anxiety compared to a no-treatment control group.

To evaluate the safety and tolerability of single ascending doses of GATE-251 in normal human volunteers

The purpose of this study is to verify the efficacy and evaluate the safety of 8-week once-daily oral administration of MD-120 in Japanese patients with depression.

The purpose of this study to evaluate the efficacy of SAGE-217 in the treatment of participants with MDD.

The purpose of this study is to develop a culturally and linguistically appropriate online cognitive behavioral intervention program-- with therapist guidance -- for Hong Kong Chinese adults suffering from major depressive disorder with mild to moderate depressive symptoms, and examine the effectiveness of this program in reducing their depressive symptoms and improving their mental health. The 3- and 6-month maintenance effect after 3 months and 6 months will also be tested.
