Active clinical trials for "Depressive Disorder"

The major objective of this study is to evaluate a new conceptualized personalized concept of Cognitive Behavioral Analysis System of Psychotherapy (CBASPersonalized) in the treatment of patients with persistent depressive disorder (PDD), childhood maltreatment and a high rate of comorbidity. Patients receive a two-phase-treatment-program (six-weeks inpatient-treatment and six-to-twelve-weeks blended-online-aftercare) in combination with standardized pharmacotherapy in a routine clinical inpatient setting. This study addresses the primary research question: Is an intensive six-week inpatient CBASPersonalized treatment feasible and effective in a clinical sample of PDD patients? In addition, moderator, process and long-term analyses will be conducted for differential insights.

The purpose of this study is to assess safety and efficacy of nodal transcranial direct current stimulation in pediatric and teenager population with major depressive disorder in the COVID-19 pandemic.

Sumor is a food supplement that combines the main coenzymes of the S-Adenosyl methionine (SAMe) cycle, namely vitamins B6, B12 and folate, with SAMe and betaine. Sumor also contains vitamin C, a molecule that has shown promise in the treatment of depression in experimental models, and selenium, an antioxidant agent whose blood deficiency has been associated with depressive symptoms in some preliminary studies. There are no studies in the literature on the efficacy of this combination in the adjuvant therapy of depression. The purpose of this study is to compare the effects of Sumor in co-therapy with an SSRI antidepressant versus co-therapy with placebo in patients with treatment-resistant Major Depressive Disorder.

The aim of the study is to test the efficacy of a treatment for depression based on interpersonal psychotherapy (IPT). The treatment will be accessed via an internet platform built for this study.

Previous studies suggested that Tai Chi may be beneficial for T2DM patients. However, no studies have investigated the effectiveness of Tai Chi for comorbid depression in T2DM patients, as well as the optimal frequency of Tai Chi. Thus, we intend to investigate the effectiveness of Tai Chi for comorbid depression in T2DM patients and test whether the effectiveness of Tai Chi depends on its frequency.
