Establishing Multimodal Brain Biomarkers for Treatment Selection in Depression
The purpose of the study is to identify brain biomarkers and characteristics that predict individual responses to treatment of major depression with the antidepressant drug sertraline (tradename Zoloft), a common selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) antidepressant. Our central hypothesis is that brain activity and connections jointly measured with functional magnetic …
Amygdala Neurofeedback for Depression - Large Scale Clinical Trial
The goal of this study is to evaluate whether rtfMRI-nf training to increase the amygdala response to positive memories may serve as a stand-alone intervention for major depressive disorder
Neural Correlates of Stress and Perceived Control in Adolescent Depression
Lack of perceived control, particularly during stress, has been critically implicated in major depressive disorder (MDD) and anhedonic symptoms, especially among female adolescents; yet the neural underpinnings of perceived control disruptions in MDD remain poorly understood. Using functional magnetic resonance imaging with a novel "value of control task" in conjunction …
DBS for Depression
The goal of the study is to address the unmet need of TRD patients by identifying brain networks critical for treating depression and to use next generation precision DBS with steering capability to engage these targeted networks. The study's goal will be achieved through 3 specific aims: Demonstrate device capability …
Optimized Predictive Treatment In Medications for Unipolar Major Depression (OPTIMUM-D)
This is a study that will test a predictive biomarker algorithm based on results from a previous study. The goal of this study is to integrate clinical, imaging, EEG, and molecular data across 8 sites to predict treatment outcome for patients experiencing a major depressive episode (MDE).
Interleaved TMS-fMRI in Ultra-treatment Resistant Depression
This is a study that will recruit patients from the neurosurgery clinic and the regular TMS clinic. It's a smaller study designed to collect brain imaging pre-treatment and then use image guided TMS to treat patient with a one week "accelerated" rTMS protocol using the research TMS machine that is …
Invasive Decoding and Stimulation of Altered Reward Computations in Depression Patients
Novel invasive neurostimulation stimulation strategies through neurosurgical interventions are emerging as a promising therapeutical strategy for major depressive disorder. These have been applied mostly to the anterior cingulate cortex, but other limbic brain regions have shown promise as anatomical targets for new neurostimulation strategies. The researchers seek to study neural …
An Individual-specific Synchrony Signature
This study aims to establish synchrony as an individual-specific mechanism of therapeutic change and offers novel insights into the mechanisms of curative interpersonal processes. The study identifies individual-specific trait-like synchrony signature and investigates the associations between synchrony signature, the individual's trait-like characteristics, and mental health, among participants diagnosed with Major …
Zelquistinel or Placebo for the Reduction of Symptoms of Major Depressive Disorder
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if zelquistinel works to treat depression in adults. It will also learn about the safety of zelquistinel. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does zelquistinel reduce depression scores in participants compared to participants who take a placebo (a look-alike …
Prediction of the Therapeutic Response in Depression Based on Neuro-computational Modeling Assessment of Motivation
This study aims to better understand the mechanisms of action of antidepressants, but also the neural correlates of motivation deficits. One hundred patients with a moderate to severe major depressive episode will be enrolled in this prospective multicenter study. The objective will be to predict the therapeutic response to two …
