Accelerated TMS for Treatment-Resistant ECT
This study investigates whether an additional treatment using transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) can help severely depressed patients who did not respond well to electroconvulsive therapy (ECT). All participants will first receive standard ECT treatment for depression, including brain scans (fMRI), psychological testing, clinical assessments, and the collection of blood and …
Temporal Interference and Depression
Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) has a high prevalence, is the leading cause of disability, and currently available interventions are associated with side effects and high treatment resistance. There is an urgent need for the development of novel interventions for MDD with alternate mechanisms of action. Temporal Interference (TI) stimulation is …
The Effects of Psilocybin on Self-Focus and Self-Related Processing in Major Depressive Disorder
This open-label functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) study will assess the effects of a single dose of psilocybin on rumination and the neural correlates of rumination in individuals with major depressive disorder.
NBI-1065845-MDD3025: Study to Assess the Efficacy and Safety of NBI-1065845 as an Adjunctive Treatment in Participants With Major Depressive Disorder (MDD)
The study will evaluate the efficacy of NBI-1065845 compared with placebo as an adjunctive treatment in participants with MDD on improving symptoms of depression.
Evaluation of the Concordance Between Measures Obtained by a Medical Device for Emotional Monitoring (EMOCARE) and the Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9) Score in Patients With Mild to Severe Depressive Episode
The aim of this clinical investigation is to find out whether the EMOCARE emotional monitoring software provides consistent results compared with the tools available for assessing the emotional state of patients suffering from mild to moderately severe depressive episod. It will also provide information on how patients feel about the …
EEG-based Neurofeedback to Improve Emotion Regulation in Major Depressive Disorder: A Randomized Clinical Trial
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate whether EEG-based neurofeedback targeting the emotion regulation network through swLORETA can improve emotional regulation and reduce symptoms in adults with Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) who have not responded sufficiently to first-line treatments. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does …
Targeting Specific Brain Networks to Treat Specific Symptoms in Depression
Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) is a way of non-invasively stimulating specific brain networks and is an established treatment for Major Depressive Disorder (MDD). This proposal will reveal network mechanisms of the therapeutic effects of rTMS by investigating how stimulating each network specifically changes network connectivity and behavior. This will …
Electroencephalography-based Precise Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation Treatment
This study will focus on the hypothesis that repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) based on EEG personalized modulation may be more effective in promoting symptomatic relief of major depressive disorder (MDD), and will rely on the platform of neuroimaging and function brain imaging of Shanghai Mental Health Center (SMHC), an …
Leucine in Midlife Depression
The study aims to investigate the effects of a 6-week leucine challenge on brain chemistry, connectivity, and behavior in people with midlife depression. The researchers will compare the leucine and an active comparator arm (lysine) for 6 weeks.
PET Imaging Using the Tracer [18F]VAT to Assess the Antidepressant Effect of Nicotine.
In the brain, certain nerve cells communicate using a chemical called acetylcholine. Acetylcholine is thought to be important for several functions including mood, memory and wakefulness. The purpose of this study is to explore the role of these nerve cells in depression. Also, we would like to understand how nicotine, …
