Metabolomics During ElectroConvulsivoTherapy
- Conditions
- ECTMajor Depressive Episode
- Interventions
- Other: Electroconvulsive therapy
- Registration Number
- NCT05973643
- Lead Sponsor
- Hôpital le Vinatier
- Brief Summary
Investigators will measure the variation of blood Metabolome through 1H NMR at several time points during the course of electroconvulsivetherapy in patients with a major depressive episode. Patients with a major depressive disorder or a bipolar disorder and a current major depressive episode will be included in this study. Investigators hypothesized that Metabolome could be a source to predict response during ECT and to help understanding underlying biological mechanisms.
- Detailed Description
Biological signatures of blood metabolome will be measure before and after the first session of electroconvulsivetherapy, and during the course, before the 6th, 12th and the last sessions. Proton Nuclear Magnetic Resonance spectroscopy will be used to measure metabolites in blood sample. In parallel, at each time point, depression severity (MADRS and BDI), Perceived severity (CGI), global functioning (EGF), convulsive characteristics and cognitive tolerance (MOCA) will be measure, at each time point.
The aim of this study is to determine whether 1HNMR could help to understanding metabolic ways and predict response to ECT in patients with a current Major Depressive Episode (MDE) in Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) and in Bipolar Disorder (BD).
To date, scientific community knows that ECT is a safety and efficacy treatment in MDE particularly resistant or severe, but scientific community knows little about its mechanism of action.
The investigators hypothesize that 1HNMR could help to go further.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Value the metabolic profile difference between the baseline and before the 6th session of ECT by blood metabolomics through 1HNMR up to 3 weeks identify variations in the metabolome by measuring the metabolome in the blood of patients treated for depressive episodes or bipolar disorder by identifying the metabolic profiles associated with the medical response to ECT between the Baseline and before the sixth ECT session.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Measure the biological effect of one ECT session on the blood metabolome through first ECT session, an average of 1 week Comparison of quantitative and qualitative measurements of metabolites and metabolic signatures obtained by 1HNMR between baseline and the first ECT by observing either a clinical response or a clinical remission by discriminating remitters and no remitters patients.
Compare the biological effect measured between the baseline and before the 1st, 6th and 12th session of ECT through study completion, up to 6 weeks Comparison of quantitative and qualitative measurements of metabolites and metabolic signatures obtained by 1HNMR between baseline and the first ECT by observing either a clinical response or a clinical remission by discriminating remitters and no remitters patients. The clinical response is defined by the decrease of 50% on the MADRS scale. The clinical remission is defined by a score less than or equal to 10 on the MADRS scale.
Measure the variations of the metabolic signature according to the clinical response during the ECT treatment up to 10 weeks Comparison of quantitative and qualitative measures of metabolites taken separately and metabolic signatures obtained by 1H NMR according to the clinical response on the MADRS scale (the overall score thus ranges from 0 to 60) throughout the course of ECT. The clinical response is defined by the decrease of 50% on the MADRS scale. The clinical remission is defined by a score less than or equal to 10 on the MADRS scale.
Look for a metabolic signature to discriminate between responder and non-responder patients before the 6 ECT sessions (i.e. the day of the 6th) through the sixth session, up 3 weeks Comparison of metabolic signatures obtained by very high field NMR between responder and non-responder patients before the 6th ECT session (V2)
