简要总结
The purpose of this research study is to find out if the medication known as ketamine can help the symptoms of depression. This drug is approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) but the investigators will use it for a non-FDA approved reason (depression).
详细描述
The investigators will enroll 100 adults with treatment-resistant unipolar or bipolar major depression (TRD) across 7 clinical sites and provide three IV ketamine infusions (0.5 mg/kg, infused over 100 minutes) and measure their depressive symptom responses. Biomarkers will be developed using blood samples from study subjects, taken prior to (predictive biomarkers) and following ketamine treatment (change biomarkers). The investigators will begin by studying the predictive value of mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) target engagement by ketamine using a white blood cell (WBC) assay for antidepressive response to ketamine (Aim 1); however, samples will be used to develop multiple blood-based biomarkers for ketamine antidepressive effects (Aim 2). The investigators will also examine the effect of combining multiple blood-based biomarkers for predicting antidepressive response to ketamine in adults with TRD (Aim 3).
Baseline WBC markers of impaired cellular energy regulation will be associated with measures of clinical response to ketamine (predictive biomarker). Changes in WBC markers of impaired cellular energy regulation will be associated with clinical response to ketamine (change biomarker).

研究组 & 干预措施
Ketamine
Subjects will receive three IV Ketamine Hydrochloride infusions (0.5 mg/kg, infused over 100 minutes) and measure their depressive symptom responses. Biomarkers will be developed using blood samples from study subjects, taken prior to (predictive biomarkers) and following ketamine treatment (change biomarkers).
干预措施: Ketamine Hydrochloride (Drug)
结局指标
主要结局
Clinical Remission of Depression
时间窗: 24 hours post infusion #3
Total number of subjects with ≤ 9 MADRS score 24 hours post Ketamine infusion #3. The Montgomery Åsberg Depression Scale (MÅDRS) is a 10-item observer rating scale assessing symptoms of depression. The score ranges from 0 (no depression) to 60 (very depressed). For this study a score of less than or equal to 9 was considered clinical remission of depression.
Suicidal Ideation
时间窗: 24 hours post infusion #3
Total number of subjects to have a reduction of suicidality, as defined by a 50% reduction on the Beck Scale for Suicidal Ideation (BSS) 24 hours post Ketamine infusion #3. The Beck Scale for Suicidal Ideation consists of 19 items which can be used to evaluate a patient's suicidal intentions. Each of the 19 items is rated on a 0-3 point scale (range 0-38, with higher scores indicating greater suicidal ideations or risk), and includes specific items that assess wish to live, wish to die, desire to make an active suicide attempt, passive suicidal desire, duration of suicidal ideations, frequency of suicidal ideations, and subjective level of control over suicidal actions.
