The city of San Diego, California, currently has 17 active clinical trials seeking participants for Depression research studies.
Combined Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation and Therapy for mTBI Related Headaches
Recruiting
This study will assess the combined effectiveness of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) and telehealth based therapy in helping manage mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) related headaches. The investigators hypothesize that active rTMS combined with telehealth therapy will provide marked reduction in mTBI related headaches and symptoms in comparison to their placebo counterparts.

Study to Compare the Use of a Behavioral Health App Versus Care as Usual for 16-22 Year Olds With Depression
Recruiting
Randomized Controlled Trial comparing a coach-enhanced digital cognitive behavioral intervention (d-CBI) (RxWell) + treatment as usual (TAU) versus TAU alone for moderate depression as determined by Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9) threshold as part of routine pediatric care. The study will be completed in pediatric practices with embedded behavioral therapists across 3 institutions (Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh, Boston Children's Hospital, Rady Children's Hospital, San Diego).

Low-Dose Intravenous Ketamine for Adolescents With Depression and Suicidal Ideation in the Emergency Department
Recruiting
The goal of this study is to test whether a single low-dose of IV ketamine given in the emergency department to adolescents with treatment-resistant depression and suicidal ideation can reduce depression symptoms and suicidal thoughts compared to placebo. Participants will complete depression scales at baseline, and 1 hour, 3 hours, 1 day, 3 days, and 7 days after receiving the treatment.
