CO2 Reactivity as a Biomarker of Non-Response to Exposure-Based Therapy
Anxiety-, obsessive-compulsive and trauma- and stressor-related disorders reflect a significant public health problem. This study is designed to evaluate the predictive power of a novel biomarker based on a CO2 challenge, thus addressing the central question "can this easy-to-administer assay aid clinicians in deciding whether or not to initiate exposure-based …
Pragmatic Trial of Obsessive-compulsive Disorder
This study includes a sequenced clinical trial in order to assess the efficacy of several switching or augment strategies when initial treatment is ineffective，and to provide strong evidence for clinical practice and international guidelines for Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder treatments.
European Study of Quality of Life in Resistant OCD Patients Treated by STN DBS
Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) is among the most disabling psychiatric disorders as more than 40% of patients are resistant to the standard pharmacological and psychotherapy approaches and about 10% show severe disability and require institutionalization. These resistant patients may benefit from new surgical therapeutic approaches such as Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) …
Evaluation of Primary Care Behavioral Health (PCBH) With the Addition of Self-help CBT - A Randomized Multicenter Trial
In this multicenter study, the investigators want to find out if an addition of an diagnostic assessment and possibility of treatment with guided self-help CBT can increase the treatment effects of PCBH on patient functioning and symptoms, compared to standard PCBH which uses contextual assessment and brief interventions. In addition …
Light Therapy for Obsessive-compulsive Disorder (OCD)
The goal of this clinical trial is to test whether light therapy is effective for reducing symptoms in young adults with OCD and late bedtimes (1am or later). The main question[s] it aims to answer are: Does light therapy reduce OCD symptoms? Does light therapy advance the circadian clock? If …
Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS) in Pediatric Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD)
In this study, the investigators aim to understand the role of transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) in modulating aberrant neurocognitive processes implicated in pediatric patients with obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD).
Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) for Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD): Improving Targeting Precision
When comparing targeting precision between DBS in parkinsonian patients and OCD patients, an unexpected deviation from the planned targets was discovered in OCD patients (Nuttin et al., 2013). The objective of this trial is to investigate whether the use of a micro-electrode assisted technique improves targeting precision in DBS at …
Safety and Efficacy of Pramipexole Treatment in Resistant Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD)
The most common and effective treatment for OCD is pharmacological therapy that includes selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) antidepressants and, in the case of patients resistant to this approach, a combination with antipsychotics. Risperidone and aripiprazole are atypical antipsychotics that act on dopamine (D2) and serotonin receptors. Studies have shown …
DBS for Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder
There are two primary approaches to the treatment of OCD, pharmacotherapy and cognitive behavior therapy (CBT). Lack of therapeutic success with one approach leads to trials of the alternative approach or a combination of the two. A rarely used third therapy approach, appropriate for only the most severely afflicted and …
Metacognitive Therapy for Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if metacognitive therapy can be effective in a Chinese sample of obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD) . The main questions it aims to answer are Can metacognitive therapy significantly reduce participants' levels of obsessive-compulsive symptoms?
