The city of Albuquerque, New Mexico, currently has 3 active clinical trials seeking participants for Depression research studies.
Sequential Multiple Assignment Randomized Trial for Bipolar Depression
Recruiting
This is a sequential multiple assignment randomized trial for adults (ages \> 18) with a bipolar disorder type 1 diagnosis currently experiencing a depressive episode. It is a randomized pragmatic trial that will compare four commonly prescribed treatments for bipolar depression, which includes three FDA-approved medications (Cariprazine, Quetiapine and Lurasidone) and one antipsychotic/antidepressant combination (Aripiprazole/Escitalopram).

Amplitude Titration to Improve ECT Clinical Outcomes
Recruiting
A randomized controlled trial will compare hippocampal neuroplasticity, antidepressant, and cognitive outcomes between individualized amplitude and fixed 800 mA amplitude ECT in older depressed subjects (n = 25 per group, n = 50 total). Relative to fixed 800 mA ECT: H1: Individualized amplitude arm will have improved RUL antidepressant outcome (IDS-C30 response rates and reduced BT electrode placement switch at V2). H2: Individualized amplitude arm will have improved cognitive outcomes (DKEFS-... Read More
