Depression Paid Clinical Trials in Indiana

Bipolar disorder is a severe chronic mood disorder that affects up to 4% of the adult population and 1.8% of the pediatric population in the United States. The treatment of the depressive episodes of bipolar disorder in the pediatric population has not been as widely studied as the treatment of depressive episodes in bipolar disorder in adults, therefore pharmacotherapeutic options are limited. Given the change in disease state and safety demonstrated in adults with depressive episodes associated with bipolar I disorder, the purpose of this study is to evaluate the change in disease state and safety of cariprazine in the treatment of depressive episodes associated with bipolar I disorder in the pediatric population. Cariprazine is an approved drug for the treatment of depressive episodes in adult participants with bipolar I disorder. Study doctors put participants in 1 of 2 groups, called treatment arms. There is a 1 in 2 chance that a participant will be assigned to placebo. Around 380 Participants ages 10-17 years with bipolar I disorder will be enrolled in approximately 60 sites worldwide. Participants receiving the study drug will receive Dose A or B of Cariprazine based on age and weight. At Week 3, participants with insufficient response will have their dose increased to Dose B or Dose C, while participants with sufficient response will continue receiving the Dose A or B for the remainder of the treatment period. The treatment period will be followed by a safety follow-up (SFU) period for 4 weeks. There may be higher treatment burden for participants in this trial compared to their standard of care. Participants will attend regular weekly visits during the study at a hospital or clinic. The effect of the treatment will be checked by medical assessments, blood tests, checking for side effects and completing questionnaires. Read Less

Objectives of this study are to determine whether active VNS Therapy treatment is superior to a no stimulation control in producing a reduction in baseline depressive symptom severity, based on multiple depression scale assessment tools at 12 months from randomization. Read Less

This project is part of the NIH Helping to End Addiction Long-term (HEAL) initiative (https://heal.nih.gov/). This randomized controlled trial (RCT) is phase 2 of a two-phase, 5-year project with the overarching goal of testing a decision aid (DA)/coaching intervention, tailored to Black patients with comorbid chronic pain and depression, to encourage use of and adherence to nonpharmacological pain treatments (NPTs). This 2-arm trial will randomize 304 patients with comorbid chronic musculoskeletal pain and depression in primary care from an urban safety-net health system (Eskenazi). After the baseline assessment, patients randomized to the intervention will be asked to participate in 4 coaching sessions over approximately 12 weeks. Sessions will use Motivational Interviewing principles to foster openness to NPTs and self-efficacy by helping patients identify their goals and priorities, understand their NPT options, prepare them to discuss and choose options with their primary care providers (PCPs), and reinforce these choices to foster maintenance of these changes. DA contents will be integrated into these sessions, which will facilitate discussion of these options with their PCP. The first 3 sessions take place prior to the patient's next scheduled PCP visit; the final session occurs after this visit. Assessments will be conducted at baseline, 3 months (i.e., after completing the final coaching session), and 6 months. Patients randomized to the wait-list control group will receive usual care (in addition to study assessments at baseline, 3 months, and 6 months). After completing the final assessment, they will then be given the DA and offered a 20-minute coaching session to walk them through it. Read Less

The aim of this study is to test the effectiveness of a single-session, digital intervention teaching the principle of practicing the opposite, when administered to youths on the waitlist for psychotherapy, with usual waitlist procedures as a control condition. Read Less

The investigators propose to examine the effects of CSC services delivered via TH (CSC-TH) versus the standard clinic-based CSC model (CSC-SD) on engagement and outcomes in a 12-month, randomized trial. Read Less

This is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study in pediatric patients who are experiencing major depressive episodes (MDEs) associated with a primary diagnosis of bipolar I or bipolar II disorder as confirmed by Kiddie Schedule for Affective Disorders and Schizophrenia for School-Age Children-Present and Lifetime Version (K-SADS-PL), according to criteria of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fifth Edition (DSM 5).

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) to part of the brain called the ventromedial prefrontal cortex (VMPFC) can treat a symptom called rumination in adults with major depression that has not responded to at least one medication trial. The main question it aims to answer are: Does TMS to the VMPFC change brain activity on functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) during a negative self-referential processing task in adults with depression? Does TMS to the VMPFC affect rumination in adults with depression? Researchers will compare brain scans and rumination scores before, during, and immediately after TMS. Participants will: Undergo three functional MRI scans Undergo a course of 20 TMS treatments Respond to clinical questionnaires and complete a computer behavioral task Read Less

The overarching goal of the proposed project is to evaluate a randomized clinical trial of the Pregnant Moms' Empowerment Program aimed at detecting its effects on maternal mental health, re-victimization, parenting sensitivity, and infant development. The project also seeks to examine theoretically-grounded mechanisms of change, including social support and empowerment. Women participating in the study will receive either the PMEP or participate in a contact-equivalent active control group during pregnancy, and will be interviewed at baseline, post-intervention and with their infants at 3 months and 1 year old. The study will occur at two sites - the University of Notre Dame and the University of Memphis. Participants will be recruited from the local community at both locations, with an equal number of women drawn from each site - Memphis, Tennessee (n=115) and South Bend, Indiana (n=115). Enrollment will continue for approximately 2.5 years, with an expected rate of 8 eligible women per month, based on a pilot study of the Pregnant Moms' Empowerment Program. The expected duration of the study for each participant will be approximately 1.5 years, with some variation due to women enrolling at different points in their pregnancy. The primary objective of the proposed project is to determine if the Pregnant Moms' Empowerment Program has positive effects on maternal mental health, re-victimization rates, parenting sensitivity, and infant development compared to women's participation in a contact-equivalent active control group. This objective will be evaluated using a multi-site randomized clinical trial design. Participants (N = 230) will be equally randomized into study arms. Eligible women will include those who are: 1) currently pregnant (primi or multiparous) and between 10 and 30 weeks gestation, 2) experienced IPV within the past year, 3) English speaking and 4) age 16 or older. The study will include 9 total visits: 4 assessments and 5 sessions for both study arms. In-person assessment visits will be completed by a trained research assistant; each visit will take approximately 2-3 hours, with post-partum assessments somewhat longer than prenatal assessments given the addition of the infant developmental assessment and parent-child observation task. Women will be compensated $30 for the first two assessments and $50 for the second two assessments. Following the final assessment, women will be invited to complete a daily diary (virtually) each day for 30 days. Each survey will take approximately 5-10 minutes to complete, and women will be compensated $2 for each completed survey. Women will also receive a $10 bonus for each set of 10 consecutive surveys. Treatment sessions will be 2 hours in duration. Women in the PMEP will complete a structured set of sessions: (1) supporting each other, support in the community, (2) identifying and understanding sources of distress, (3) cognitive and behavioral strategies to build resilience and resolve conflict, (4) perinatal health and infant care, and (5) positive parenting. Women in the active control condition will participate in facilitated discussions on a topic identified by the group. All sessions will be audio recorded so that treatment fidelity can be evaluated (for the Pregnant Moms' Empowerment Program) and so that content overlap can be assessed (for the active control condition).
