Building Mood State Classifiers to Inform Deep Brain Stimulation of Treatment-Resistant Bipolar Depression
Summary: This study is only enrolling at Baylor College of Medicine. The other research locations listed serve to support data analysis only. This research study is to investigate the use of technology called Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) to potentially improve Treatment-Resistant Bipolar Depression (TRBD) symptoms in patients with severe cases. DBS involves the surgical implantation of leads and electrodes...
A Collaborative Treatment Network for Youth With or at High Risk for Bipolar Disorder
Summary: This is a naturalistic treatment and follow-up study of youth with bipolar spectrum disorders (BSDs) across four US sites of The Childhood Bipolar Network (CBN). CBN sites have expertise in diagnosing, assessing, and treating BSDs in youth. The primary aims of this study are to (1) identify and reliably diagnose youth (ages 9 to 19 yrs) with full bipolar disorder (BD) and BSDs, and (2) examine pre...
Efficacy And Safety of BXCL501 Evaluated For At-Home Use In A Multisite Double-Blind Placebo-Controlled Trial For Agitation Associated With Schizophrenia And Bipolar Disorder
Summary: In this study, an investigational medication named BXCL501 is being tested for the treatment of episodes of agitation associated with bipolar I and bipolar II disorder, schizophrenia, schizoaffective and schizophreniform disorder. This study compares the study drug to a placebo.
Cerebellar Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation and Cognitive Control
Summary: The purpose of this study is to examine whether cerebellar stimulation can be used to improve cognitive deficits and mood in patients with schizophrenia, autism, bipolar disorder, Parkinson's disease, and major depression.
Biological Risk Factors for the Prospective Development of Alcohol Use Disorders in Young Adults with Bipolar Disorder and Typically Developing Young Adults
Summary: Alcohol use disorders (AUDs) affect up to 60% of individuals with bipolar disorder during their lifetime and is associated with worse illness outcomes, yet few studies have been performed to clarify the causes of this comorbidity. Understanding biological risk factors that associate with and predict the development of AUDs in bipolar disorder could inform interventions and prevention efforts to re...
A 6-week, Multicenter, Randomized, Double-blind, Parallel-group, Placebo-controlled Study of the Efficacy and Safety of Cariprazine in Pediatric Subjects (10 to 17 Years of Age) in the Treatment of Depressive Episodes Associated With Bipolar I Disorder
Summary: 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. Gi...
Enabling Neuroscience Research Approaches for Brain, FeeLings and Emotions (ENABLE): an Innovative Platform for Clinical Trials in Mood Disorders
Summary: Mood disorders such as depression and bipolar disorder affect over 350 million people around the world. While several effective treatments exist, it is often difficult to match the right treatment to an individual person. Repeated efforts to find the right treatment contribute to poor functioning, low quality of life, and prolongs the time it takes to get well. Most areas of medicine are able to u...
BioClock: Optimization, Working Mechanisms and Response Predictors of Bright Light Therapy for Depressive Disorders - a Multicentre Randomized Controlled Trial
Summary: Bright Light Therapy (BLT) is a proven treatment for depression in seasonal and non-seasonal depressive disorders, as well as bipolar disorder. To make BLT more effective and practical in clinical settings and tailor it to individual needs, it is necessary to optimize the treatment approach, understand how the treatment works, and identify patient characteristics that predict response. This clinic...
Elucidating Neurobiological Mechanisms Underlying the Therapeutic Effect of the Ketogenic Diet in Bipolar Disorder (BD): a Multidisciplinary Mechanistic Study
Summary: The investigators aim to examine the effect of the ketogenic diet on brain activity, metabolism, and emotions in adults with Bipolar Disorder (BD).
Low-Intensity Focused Ultrasound of the Amygdala for Bipolar Disorder
Summary: The specific aim of this proposed study is to investigate the feasibility and therapeutic potential of transcranial focused ultrasound (tFUS) as a treatment for bipolar disorder (BD). Specifically, the investigators will study the effects of amygdala tFUS on corticolimbic activation during an emotion regulation task in BD, the effects of amygdala tFUS on corticolimbic resting-state functional conn...
A Randomised, Controlled Trial to Investigate the Effect of a Six Week Intensified Pharmacological Treatment for Bipolar Depression Compared to Treatment as Usual in Subjects Who Had a First-time Treatment Failure on Their First-line Treatment.
Summary: Bipolar disorders affect approximately 4.5 million people across the European Union (EU) and are associated with high annual healthcare and societal costs. Bipolar disorder I and II represent disorders that cause extreme fluctuation in a person's mood, energy, and ability to function, in which symptoms of (hypo)mania and depression alternate. The depressive episodes of bipolar disorders are often ...
Multicenter, Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled, Parallel-group, Fixed-dose Study to Evaluate the Efficacy, Safety, and Tolerability of ABBV-932 in Subjects With Depressive Episodes Associated With Bipolar I or II Disorder
Summary: Bipolar disorder is a severe chronic mood disorder that affects up to 4% of the adult population in the United States. This study will assess how safe and effective ABBV-932 is in treating participants with bipolar I or II disorder. ABBV-932 is an investigational drug being developed for the treatment of depressive episodes in adult participants with bipolar I or II disorder. Study doctors put par...
