The Impact of Working Memory and Reward Markers on DLPFC Activity in Treatment-resistant Depression
Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) is a very common illness that is usually treated with antidepressant medication. Depression can be caused by many things such as childhood experiences, genetics, and changes in the way the body and brain function. For those with depression where medication and psychotherapy have limited benefit, repetitive …
pBFS-guided rTMS Over DMPFC for Treatment-Resistant Depression
This study is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial aimed at exploring the effectiveness and safety of rTMS intervention with DMPFC targets guided by pBFS in patients with treatment-resistant depression.
The Effect of a Six Week Intensified Pharmacological Treatment for Major Depressive Disorder Compared to Treatment as Usual in Subjects Who Had a First-time Treatment Failure on Their First-line Treatment.
Over 28 million people suffer from current depressive disorder in the European Union. Major depressive disorder (MDD) is one of the most common psychiatric illnesses. The symptoms cause clinically significant distress or impairment in social, occupational, and other important areas of functioning. To treat MDD, there are several antidepressants available …
Identifying Local Field Potential Biomarkers for Treatment-Resistant Major Depression With Deep Brain Stimulation
Major depressive disorder (MDD) is a complex and severe mental illness, characterized by multiple symptoms, and is a leading cause of non-fatal health loss. Despite this, approximately 30% of patients do not respond to standard pharmacological or psychological treatments. Currently, we lack objective brain-based biomarkers to differentiate between natural mood …
Ketamine Augmentation of ECT in Treatment-Resistant Depression
This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled phase 3 clinical trial evaluating the additive effect of intravenous ketamine in combination with electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) in patients with treatment-resistant major depressive disorder (MDD). The study aims to determine whether ketamine enhances the antidepressant efficacy of ECT and reduces associated cognitive side effects. …
Spaced Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation for Treatment-Resistant Depression: A Home-Based Feasibility and Safety Study
The investigators propose a single-arm, open-label study to evaluate the effectiveness, safety, tolerability and feasibility of at-home transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) as a treatment for depression, particularly in cases where patients have not responded well to traditional therapies. Treatment will be delivered over a 2-week period with daily weekday …
Electroconvulsive Therapy Augmented With Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation for Treatment Resistant Depression
The RTMSECT2 study was design to compare the application of electroconvulsive therapy augmented by transcranial magnetic stimulation. Subject will be compared both within groups and in group using psychometric scales and different deliver energy
40 Hz Light Neurostimulation for Patients With Depression (FELIX)
Recent research in mice models of Alzheimer's disease (AD) has demonstrated that one hour per day of exposure to 40 Hz flickering light therapy can halt the disease's progression, and improve cognition and memory. Moreover, recent data suggest that 40 Hz light stimulation may induce neuroplasticity and reduce neuroinflammation. In …
Maintenance rTMS for Depression (Maitr-De)
Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) has emerged as a promising intervention for treatment-resistant depression (TRD), yet substantial uncertainties persist regarding its efficacy as a maintenance treatment. This prospective study seeks to investigate the efficacy of maintenance rTMS in individuals with TRD who have previously responded to an acute course of …
