研究概览
简要总结
This study is examining the safety and effectiveness of two medications, ketamine and riluzole, in treating patients with treatment resistant major depressive disorder. This study will also examine the effectiveness of an FDA approved drug called lamotrigine in decreasing the potential side effects associated with ketamine.
详细描述
This research proposal will investigate a glutamate-modulating agent, riluzole, in treatment-resistant patients who exhibit an acute, sustained response to a single dose of intravenous (IV) racemic ketamine. Fifty ketamine-responders will be randomized to riluzole or placebo in a 4-week, randomized, double-blind, continuation-phase study.

研究组 & 干预措施
Lamotrigine Pre-Treatment
Patients who met enrolment criteria for phase 1 were randomly allocated to lamotrigine or placebo by a permuted block procedure consisting of blocks of two or four patients. The randomization list was created by a biostatistician with no patient contact. 300 mg of lamotrigine 2 hrs prior to ketamine infusion. Responders were randomized to one of two continuation pharmacotherapy groups, receiving either two capsules of riluzole 50 mg each (100 mg/d) or matching pill placebo under double-blind conditions.
干预措施: Lamotrigine (Drug)

Placebo Pre-Treatment
2 hours prior to ketamine infusion each patient received three capsules of placebo identical in size, weight, appearance, and taste to the lamotrigine tablets. Responders were randomized to one of two continuation pharmacotherapy groups, receiving either two capsules of riluzole 50 mg each (100 mg/d) or matching pill placebo under double-blind conditions.

结局指标
主要结局
Montgomery-Asberg Depression Rating Scale (MARDS) Score (Acute Response to IV Ketamine in Patients With Treatment Resistant Major Depression)
时间窗: 24 Hours
Montgomery-Asberg Depression Rating Scale, each of the ten items can be scored from 0 (absence of symptoms to 6 most severe) and has a total score range of 0-60. A lower score on a MADRS indicates a less severe depression. The primary outcome for the initial phase of the trial was the 24-h MADRS score, which included all 10 MADRS items.
