简要总结
Current methods of choosing treatment for major depressive disorder (MDD) are inefficient. The Strategic Treatment to Achieve Remission of Depression (STAR*D) Trial revealed that only about 1/3 of patients treated with antidepressant drugs will go into remission with the first medication chosen. We hypothesize that pattern recognition software using Machine Learning methods can accurately predict response to a variety of antidepressant medications (ADM) or cognitive behavior therapy (CBT) after training using pre-treatment demographic, clinical, laboratory or electroencephalographic (EEG) data. These algorithms might assist the clinician to chose, for any given patient, an antidepressant treatment option with greater probability of favourable response than is achievable using current best practise methods.
详细描述
Objective of this study:
To improve antidepressant treatment efficacy by determining,in advance, a given subject's probability of response to a range of antidepressant treatments. The study is intended to to further train and test, in a larger sample of depressed subjects, a digital system that has been shown to be an accurate predictor of antidepressant response in pilot studies. The accuracy of the trained predictive model based on machine learning methodology is the primary outcome we are interested in studying.
Subjects:
males and females age 18-70 years of age.

结局指标
主要结局
Machine learning
时间窗: 6 weeks with medication, or 12 weeks with CBT
The accuracy of the trained predictive model based on machine learning methodology is the primary outcome we are interested in studying. The primary outcome measure, i.e. model performance accuracy, is tested using the jack-knifed "leave N out" nested cross validation method with response being determined using the MDRS scale.
次要结局
- Machine learning(6 weeks with medication, 12 weeks with CBT)
