Overview

In this proposal, the investigators aim to explore the clinical subtypes and biological markers to personalize the use of antidepressants in MDD. By stratifying the subjects with (versus without) remission and treatment response, the biological markers are expected to have important prediction effects in future clinical practice.

Description

In this proposal, through the integration of genome, transcriptome, protein, metabolic group, microbial group and immune cell subtype of multidimensional omics data to construct the curative effect of forecast model.The investigators aim to explore the clinical subtypes and biological markers to personalize the use of antidepressants in MDD. By stratifying the subjects with (versus without) remission and treatment response, the biological markers are expected to have important prediction effects in future clinical practice.Ultimate aim is to solve the depression medication selection dilemma of "trial and error", reduce medical costs, improving depression treatment experience.

FAQs

Learn more about clinical trials

What is a clinical trial?

A clinical trial is a study designed to test specific interventions or treatments' effectiveness and safety, paving the way for new, innovative healthcare solutions.

Why should I take part in a clinical trial?

Participating in a clinical trial provides early access to potentially effective treatments and directly contributes to the healthcare advancements that benefit us all.

How long does a clinical trial take place?

The duration of clinical trials varies. Some trials last weeks, some years, depending on the phase and intention of the trial.

Do I get compensated for taking part in clinical trials?

Compensation varies per trial. Some offer payment or reimbursement for time and travel, while others may not.

How safe are clinical trials?

Clinical trials follow strict ethical guidelines and protocols to safeguard participants' health. They are closely monitored and safety reviewed regularly.
