Using gene testing to guide treatment for drug-resistant tuberculosis
This study uses next-generation gene testing to help manage active drug-resistant tuberculosis. It may help doctors choose the most appropriate treatment by better identifying the TB’s drug resistance.
Cape TownAges Any age - NCT05570344Recruiting
Texting support plus brain stimulation for hard-to-treat depression
This study tests whether adding supportive text messages to brain stimulation (repetitive TMS) helps people with depression that has not improved after at least two antidepressant tries. It may help some people by combining a brain-based treatment with ongoing daily encouragement and support.
Edmonton, AlbertaAges 18 years+ - NCT05577247Recruiting
Study of new thinking skills in hard-to-treat depression
This trial looks at how people with treatment-resistant major depression respond when starting a new depression medicine that affects glutamate signaling. It also involves brain scans and thinking/learning tasks, aiming to understand what helps people improve when standard treatments haven’t worked.
ParisAges 18–70 - NCT05607654Recruiting
Brain stimulation for depression that hasn’t improved with usual treatment
This study tests how a specific kind of brain stimulation (repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation) works for people with depression that has not responded to standard treatments. If you qualify, it may help doctors understand the mechanism and improve options for treatment-resistant depression.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–45 - NCT05660642RecruitingPhase 2
Safety and tolerability study for BPL-003 in hard-to-treat depression
This Phase 2 study tests BPL-003 in people with treatment-resistant depression to learn about its safety and how it affects the body and brain. Because it is open-label, everyone knows they are getting the study treatment, and you’ll also need to stop your current antidepressant during the study.
LiverpoolAges 18–75 - NCT05661383Recruiting
Smell and brain stimulation for hard-to-treat depression
This trial studies whether stimulating the brain and senses related to smell can reduce symptoms in people with depression that has not responded to usual treatment. It may help by testing new non-drug approaches for improving mood and motivation.
BronAges 18 years+ - NCT05670847RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
