Method: The study was conducted from October 2004 December 2006. A total 521 patients private practices, hospitals, university clinics were randomly assigned olanzapine (5-20 mg/day), divalproex (500-2500 or for 3 weeks; those completing continued with 9-week extension.

Major depressive disorder (MDD) is a mental health that can cause disability and functional impairment standard-of-care (SOC) antidepressant therapies (ADTs) take weeks to treat. Zuranolone neuroactive steroid positive allosteric modulator of synaptic extrasynaptic γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) type A receptors approved as an oral, once-daily, 14-day treatment course in adults with postpartum depression under investigation MDD. The phase 3 CORAL Study (NCT04476030) evaluated the efficacy safety...
Background: Duloxetine and escitalopram were compared in an 8-month, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial adult outpatients meeting DSM‑IV criteria for major depressive disorder (MDD). The results regarding the primary objective of study (onset antidepressant action) have been previously published. current paper focuses on longer-term (8-month) comparisons efficacy safety between duloxetine escitalopram.Research design methods: Upon completion 8-week, fixed-dose,...
Objective: Characteristics of difficult-to-treat depression (DTD), including infrequent symptom remission and poor durability benefit, compel reconsideration the outcome metrics historically used to gauge effectiveness antidepressant interventions. Methods: Self-report clinician assessments severity were obtained regularly over a 2-year period in registry sample receiving treatment as usual (TAU), with or without vagus nerve stimulation (VNS). Alternative for characterizing change compared...
Abstract Background In difficult-to-treat depression (DTD) the outcome metrics historically used to evaluate treatment effectiveness may be suboptimal. Metrics based on remission status and single end-point (SEP) assessment problematic given infrequent symptom remission, temporal instability, poor durability of benefit in DTD. Methods Self-report clinician severity were regularly obtained over a 2-year period chronic highly treatment-resistant registry sample ( N = 406) receiving as usual,...
Objective: Zuranolone is a positive allosteric modulator of both synaptic and extrasynaptic γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) type A receptors neuroactive steroid approved in the United States as an oral, once-daily, 14-day treatment course for adults with postpartum depression under investigation major depressive disorder (MDD). Interim results from open-label, longitudinal, phase 3 SHORELINE Study (NCT03864614) that evaluated long-term safety efficacy zuranolone MDD are reported.Methods: This...
