NCT00067938
Bipolar study of tolerability, clinical response and patient satisfaction
NCT01149551
The purpose of this study is to detect genetic associations for the development of schizophrenia (SZ) and bipolar illness (BP) by comparing Veterans with these diseases to "psychiatrically healthy" Veterans from Veterans Health Administration medical centers. In addition, the genetic basis for functional capacity and disability in Veterans affected with SZ and BP will be assessed, as will genetic predictors of suicidality and tardive dyskinesia. Finally, we will also establish a repository which allows for future genomic studies related to SZ, BP, and related disorders or sequelae.
NCT00535262
This pilot study will evaluate the efficacy of the monoamine oxidase inhibitor (MAOI)EmSam, a selegiline transdermal system (STS), in bipolar depression.
NCT00045916
This study will evaluate the effectiveness of electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) administered with medication for the treatment of a major depressive episode (unipolar or bipolar) and will compare two types of ECT.
NCT00083954
The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy of quetiapine compared to placebo in the treatment for a major depressive episode in patients with bipolar disorder after receiving treatment for up to 8 weeks.
NCT00119652
The purpose of this study is to determine whether quetiapine is effective and safe in the acute treatment of bipolar depression and whether the effect is maintained when treatment is continued.
NCT00081380
The purpose of this study is to determine whether quetiapine when used as adjunct to lithium or divalproex is safe and effective in the maintenance treatment of adult patients with Bipolar I Disorder. The study consists of enrollment and 2 phases, the Open-label treatment Phase and the Randomized treatment Phase. PLEASE NOTE: Seroquel SR and Seroquel XR refer to the same formulation. The SR designation was changed to XR after consultation with FDA.
NCT00422331
The purpose of this study is to determine whether Lithium is safe and effective in the treatment of Bipolar I Disorder subjects with symptoms of acute mania.
NCT00071253
The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of continued combination therapy using Depakote plus olanzapine, vs. Depakote monotherapy and olanzapine monotherapy in stable subjects during the maintenance phase of bipolar illness.
NCT01050582
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of risperidone compared with other atypical antipsychotic drugs on the physical maturity, growth and development of children, and the risk of prolactin-related adverse events (side effects) associated to these drugs.
NCT00868699
This clinical study is designed to test the hypothesis that lurasidone is effective, tolerable, and safe for the treatment of patients with bipolar I depression
NCT00090311
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate efficacy and safety of quetiapine fumarate (SEROQUEL) compared with placebo in the treatment of children and adolescent patients with Bipolar I mania.
NCT01396291
This study is being done to evaluate the efficacy and safety of asenapine as compared to placebo in preventing the recurrence of mood episodes after stabilization of an acute/manic mixed episode in participants with Bipolar 1 Disorder. After a Screening Period, each participant will receive open-label asenapine and matching placebo for 12 to 16 weeks. Participants who meet stabilization criteria may then be randomized into one of the two study arms (asenapine or matching placebo) to receive double-blind treatment for up to an additional 26-weeks.
NCT00158990
The purpose of this project is to determine whether concurrent treatment of patients with major depression (unipolar or bipolar) with triiodothyronine (T3) and sertraline, will lead to a stronger and/or more rapid antidepressant effect than treatment with sertraline alone.
NCT00012558
A long-term study of current treatments for bipolar disorder, including medications and psychosocial therapies.
NCT00044187
Olanzapine is currently marketed for the treatment of schizophrenia and acute manic episodes with bipolar 1 disorder. This Anti-obesity Agent is currently marketed for the management of obesity. In this study, the Anti-obesity Agent is being tested to see if it can treat weight gain that may be associated with taking olanzapine. The purposes of this study are to determine the safety of olanzapine when given in combination with the Anti-obesity Agent and any side effects that might be associated with it and whether weight-gain agent can help treat weight gain that may be associated with taking olanzapine.
NCT01575561
This is an open-label, multi-center,12 week extension study designed to evaluate the longer term safety, tolerability and effectiveness of lurasidone, flexibly dosed, adjunctive to lithium or divalproex for the treatment of subjects with bipolar I disorder, who have either completed the core study D1050296 or experienced a protocol defined recurrence of a mood event in the double-blind phase of the core study D1050296
NCT00490542
Mixed states in bipolar disorder have long been recognized. Over a century ago, it was argued that mixed states were the most common episodes in manic-depressive illness. A mixed state is defined as a person who is experiencing symptoms of both depression and mania. Currently, a person must have depression plus 3 or more manic symptoms for the episode to be diagnosed mixed. Using this narrow view, less than 10% of episodes in patients with bipolar disorder would meet criteria for a mixed episode. A broader view requires that the person have at least 2 manic symptoms. Using this broader view, data suggest that about 50% of episodes in bipolar disorder would be diagnosable as mixed states. Studies suggest that the majority of persons with a depressive mixed state have bipolar disorder type II. Many people who have a mixed state will also have major depression. Even with such high potential rates of mixed episodes in both bipolar disorder and major depression, there have been few studies addressing the issue. The purpose of this study is to look at how effective Geodon is in treating the depressive mixed state in people with bipolar or major depression. This will be the first clinical trial that is both double-blind and randomized.
NCT00883493
The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy of quetiapine fumarate monotherapy with quetiapine fumarate in combination with lithium in the treatment of a major depressive episode in patients with bipolar disorder.
NCT01528839
There is growing evidence that thyroid axis dysfunction may contribute to the pathophysiology of bipolar illness. Open-label studies have consistently demonstrated that the behavioral expression of bipolar disorder can be modified by a change in thyroid status, and in many instances the course of illness is improved through the use of adjunct thyroid hormone treatment. Recent evidence emerged from acute intervention studies that add-on treatment with supraphysiological doses of levothyroxine is an effective augmenting agent in patients with a major depressive episode. The primary goal of this international multicenter trial (5 sites) is to determine in a 13-week, randomized, placebo-controlled design (1 week single-blind placebo run-in, 6 week double-blind, 6 week open-label) the efficacy and safety of add-on treatment with levothyroxine (300 mcg/d) in combination with mood stabilizer/antidepressant therapy in the treatment of patients with bipolar depression. The main hypotheses is: treatment with levothyroxine will result in a significantly greater mean reduction of HRSD total score and in a higher number of responders and remitters compared to placebo treatment. This proposal will build on our pilot data and provide evidence for the use of levothyroxine as an effective augmentation strategy in the treatment of bipolar depression.
