Trial Outcomes & Findings for Optimizing Outcomes of Treatment-Resistant Depression in Older Adults (NCT NCT02960763)
NCT ID: NCT02960763
Last Updated: 2024-10-03
Results Overview
Psychological well-being was assessed using the NIH Toolbox Psychological Wellbeing subscales of Positive Affect and General Life Satisfaction, with a T score calculated as the average of these two subscales. Higher scores indicate greater positive affect and life satisfaction. Reference T-score (mean=50, SD=10).
COMPLETED
PHASE4
742 participants
Step 1 (10 weeks), Step 2 (10 weeks), a period of up to 20 weeks
2024-10-03
Participant Flow
Patients were recruited based on referrals from primary care providers (PCPs) or psychiatrists and self-referrals. This was further checked by using tools electronic medical records (EMRs) and using EMR-launched clinical decision tools. Print, radio, and social media advertising were used too. If patients self-referred, treatment recommendations were given by their community providers or a psychiatrist associated with the study.

0/211 • Adverse event data were collected during phone assessments every other week during Step 1 and Step 2 (approximately 10 weeks each) for approximately 20 weeks of event data.
This study assessed adverse events (in particular falls) to determine how safe and tolerable the treatments were. This was done because it is important for doctors to be able to cite safety concerns as one of the main restrictions in treatment of depression in older adults. One challenge with the rates of AE's/SAE's was because of the naturally high rate of medical problems and falls in depressed older adults. Most of the SAE's reported were decided to not be related to treatment.
