Antidepressant Effects of Nitrous Oxide
To evaluate the acute and sustained antidepressant effects of nitrous oxide in people with major depressive disorder; and further evaluate these effects by identifying the optimal dose and regimen to guide current practice, and to plan a future large pragmatic trial.
Physical Activity Program for TRD
This is a pilot study examining the delivery of a remotely delivered, one-on-one, individualized physical activity (PA) program in adult participants with treatment-resistant depression (TRD).
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 …
Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) Therapy for Treatment Resistant Depression
We propose a clinical study of medial forebrain bundle DBS as a treatment in 20 patients with treatment refractory depression (TRD). Data from the University of Bonn indicates that surgical lesions of the medical forebrain bundle can produce therapeutic benefits in patients with depressive disorders, and suggest that DBS at …
rTMS Therapy for Treatment-Resistant Depression With Different Targets Guided by pBFS
To explore the effectiveness and safety of rTMS intervention with different targets in the left prefrontal cortex defined using the pBFS method, in adult patients with moderate and severe depressive disorder. Second, investigate the neural circuit that responds to the rTMS intervention using individualized brain image analysis, which may help …
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. …
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 …
