NCT00095745
This trial is a 52-week safety study to evaluate the safety of adjunctive aripiprazole in outpatients with major depressive disorder who have experienced an incomplete response to an ongoing antidepressant trial.
NCT00194948
This study will determine the effectiveness of offering primary care patients their preferred treatment versus one that is less desirable in improving treatment adherence and outcome.
NCT00969709
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of Levomilnacipran ER fixed doses versus placebo in the treatment of outpatients with major depressive disorder.
NCT01936506
This study is evaluating the effects of two brain training exercises on: memory, cognitive processing and depression symptoms.
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.
NCT01913262
This is an observational registry intended to track depression scores of patients over time in treatment.
NCT00014482
RATIONALE: Music therapy may be effective in relieving pain and emotional distress in patients who are undergoing cancer therapy. PURPOSE: Randomized trial to determine the effectiveness of music therapy to ease pain and emotional distress in patients with hematologic cancer who are undergoing high-dose therapy and stem cell transplantation.
NCT00481988
The purpose of this study is to see if transcranial direct current stimulation may improve the symptoms of depression.
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.
NCT01288079
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and effect of TC-5214 as a single therapy in patients with major depressive disorder who exhibit inadequate response to antidepressants.
NCT00247195
This study will develop and evaluate the effectiveness of a culturally based program that aims to facilitate entry, retention, and successful treatment in specialized mental health services for Hispanics with major depressive disorder.
NCT01020799
The purpose of this study is to prove the principle that treatment with AZD7268 reduces depressive symptoms in patients with Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) compared with placebo.
NCT00057733
RATIONALE: Stress management techniques such as muscle relaxation, guided imagery, and abdominal breathing may improve quality of life and decrease emotional distress in patients who are undergoing radiation therapy for cancer. PURPOSE: Randomized clinical trial to determine the effectiveness of stress management training in helping cancer patients cope with the emotional distress of radiation therapy.
NCT00298805
The purpose of this study is to compare depressive characteristics in migraine patients to those observed in patients with epilepsy in a previous study, and determine whether those symptoms are unique to patients with epilepsy.
NCT01145755
This is a 6-week study treatment to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of AZD2066 in patients with major depressive disorder.
NCT00107120
Depression affects approximately 2.5% of children and 8% of adolescents. Escitalopram is the S-enantiomer of citalopram. Both escitalopram and citalopram are selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) and are used to treat depression in adults. This study is designed to provide a systematic evaluation of the safety and efficacy of escitalopram in the treatment of depressed pediatric patients, 12 to 17 years of age. Patients completing the study will be eligible to enter an open-label extension study.
NCT00000367
The purpose of this study is to design a program to prevent suicide in elderly patients by educating patients, their families, and physicians on depression and suicidal thoughts. A program to prevent suicide in elderly patients needs to be developed. Since elderly patients frequently have doctor's visits, it may be best to have a suicide prevention program based in the patient's doctor's office. When an older person visits a primary care physician, he/she will check for signs of depression, including thoughts of suicide. The doctor will speak to the patient about depression and how to recognize it. If the individual is diagnosed with depression, the doctor will offer treatment. During this study, the information the doctor collects will be used to evaluate the effectiveness of the program. The study will last for 2 years. Eligibility for this study is age of at least 60 years and diagnosis of depression. (Depression required for 920 of the 1200 patients; 280 patients should have no symptoms of depression.)
NCT00783991
The Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) is an NIH Roadmap initiative to develop a computerized system measuring patient-reported outcomes in respondents with a wide range of chronic diseases and demographic characteristics. In the first four years of its existence, the PROMIS network developed item banks for measuring patient-reported outcomes in the areas of pain, fatigue, emotional distress, physical function, and social functioning. During the item banking process, the PROMIS network conducted focus groups, individual cognitive interviews, and lexile (reading level) analyses to refine the meaning, clarity, and literacy demands of all items. The item banks were administered to over 20,000 respondents and calibrated using models based on item response theory (IRT). Using these IRT calibrations, computerized adaptive test (CAT) algorithms were developed and implemented. The network has designed a series of studies using clinical populations to evaluate the item attributes, examine their utility as CATs, and validate the item banks. More information on the PROMIS network can be found at www.nihpromis.org. This study is designed to examine how differences in modes of data capture affect psychometric properties and score differences and to evaluate the consistency of these results across three PROMIS health domains: emotional distress-depression, fatigue, and physical function. Four modes of administration will be compared: interactive voice response (IVR) technology, paper and pencil questionnaire, personal computer, and personal digital assistant (PDA). A total of 800 patients will be enrolled from three diagnostic groups: chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), depression, and rheumatoid arthritis. The study will test for equivalence across modes of administration, with the hypothesis that there are no mode effects; if mode effects are found, their magnitude across modes will be estimated. This network project will result in an improved understanding of the effect of assessment mode on patient-reported outcome (PRO) data. Guidance from this project can help in planning future PROMIS activities beyond the present PROMIS program.
NCT00086190
The purpose of this study is to find out if two antidepressant medications, paroxetine and venlafaxine, can help control depression in Parkinson's disease, and if these medications affect the motor symptoms of Parkinson's disease such as tremor, stiffness, slowness, and balance.
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.
