This study is testing VLS-01, a treatment containing DMT that is placed in the mouth and dissolved, to see if it can quickly help people with depression who haven’t improved with other treatments. Participants will receive either 1 or 3 doses of VLS-01, with support throughout the study, to evaluate its safety and effectiveness.

The purpose of this study is to test the safety, efficacy and mechanism of action of subgenual cingulate (Cg25) deep brain stimulation (DBS) for major depression in patients who have not responded to prior antidepressant treatments. Participation in the study will continue for ten years or until the device receives FDA approval for depression. Forty (40) patients will be enrolled in this study.

Severe depression is devastating for those affected and is often associated with significant risk of suicide. Electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) is a highly effective acute treatment for severe depression, but its use and acceptability are limited by cognitive side effects. Of these, retrograde memory loss is most concerning, and can be long-term. The introduction of ultrabrief right unilateral (UBRUL) ECT into clinical practice has been an important step in reducing the risk of memory impairment, but significant deficits still occur. A new form of UBRUL ECT which utilises a Frontoparietal electrode placement represents a further development. Preliminary data suggest that Frontoparietal UBRUL has good efficacy and less cognitive side effects than UBRUL given using the conventional Temporoparietal electrode placement. Designed as a pivotal trial, this protocol will be the first RCT comparing these two forms of ECT, producing the rigorous efficacy and safety data required to change clinical practice/policy. This is a multicentre, parallel group RCT with 1:1 allocation ratio between Frontoparietal (intervention) and Temporoparietal (comparator) forms of UBRUL ECT. Participation will involve receiving randomised acute ECT under blinded conditions during the randomised acute treatment period (typically around 4 weeks), then completion of a 24-week follow-up period which commences after the cessation of all acute ECT. The study protocol aims to provide 12 randomised acute ECT treatments, though the number of treatments (and hence the length of the randomised acute treatment period) can be adjusted by the participant's own treating/admitting psychiatrist according to their clinical judgement.

Why Other Patients Applied

"I tried Prozac, Lamictal, TMS, a psychotherapy, and mindfulness meditation. These treatments provided limited relief. I hope for a new treatment that will be more effective. Looking for something that lasts long-term so that I can get my life back."

"I'm taking a medication for anxiety and it's not helping/working. I want to try and find something that would help with my anxiety. My research brought me to clinical trials."

ZD
Anxiety PatientAge: 36

"I’ve tried so many drugs and treatments for depression it won’t go away or if it does it just comes back. I want to help others who may have this awful condition while also helping myself. If something new works for me, maybe it'll work for other people too."

WK
Depression PatientAge: 56

"I've tried 8 or 9 different combinations of antidepressants (SSRI, SNRI, etc) + antipsychotics, mood stabilizers, anxiolytics... I’ve been through on- and off-label treatments, I've had at least 4 serious side effcts in the 10 years I've been on antidepressants. I've done PGx testing for genetic markers, too. My experience finding appropriate treatment has been lonely, exhausting. I'd love to participate in something that helps others like me."

HZ
Treatment-Resistant Depression PatientAge: 31

"I've heard great things about ketamine for treatment resistant depression and PTSD but haven't been able to try it. I've been struggling to find something to alleviate my symptoms since my son passed away in 2017."

Why We Started Power

We started Power when my dad was diagnosed with multiple myeloma, and I struggled to help him access the latest immunotherapy. Hopefully Power makes it simpler for you to explore promising new treatments, during what is probably a difficult time.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much do Treatment Resistant Depression clinical trials in Georgia pay?

Each trial will compensate patients a different amount, but $50-100 for each visit is a fairly common range for Phase 2–4 trials (Phase 1 trials often pay substantially more). Further, most trials will cover the costs of a travel to-and-from the clinic.

How do Treatment Resistant Depression clinical trials in Georgia work?

After a researcher reviews your profile, they may choose to invite you in to a screening appointment, where they'll determine if you meet 100% of the eligibility requirements. If you do, you'll be sorted into one of the treatment groups, and receive your study drug. For some trials, there is a chance you'll receive a placebo. Across Treatment Resistant Depression trials in Georgia 30% of clinical trials have a placebo. Typically, you'll be required to check-in with the clinic every month or so. The average trial length in Georgia for Treatment Resistant Depression is 12 months.

How do I participate in a study as a "healthy volunteer"?

Not all studies recruit healthy volunteers: usually, Phase 1 studies do. Participating as a healthy volunteer means you will go to a research facility in Georgia several times over a few days or weeks to receive a dose of either the test treatment or a "placebo," which is a harmless substance that helps researchers compare results. You will have routine tests during these visits, and you'll be compensated for your time and travel, with the number of appointments and details varying by study.

What does the "phase" of a clinical trial mean?

The phase of a trial reveals what stage the drug is in to get approval for a specific condition. Phase 1 trials are the trials to collect safety data in humans. Phase 2 trials are those where the drug has some data showing safety in humans, but where further human data is needed on drug effectiveness. Phase 3 trials are in the final step before approval. The drug already has data showing both safety and effectiveness. As a general rule, Phase 3 trials are more promising than Phase 2, and Phase 2 trials are more promising than phase 1.

Do I need to be insured to participate in a Treatment Resistant Depression medical study in Georgia?

Clinical trials are almost always free to participants, and so do not require insurance. The only exception here are trials focused on cancer, because only a small part of the typical treatment plan is actually experimental. For these cancer trials, participants typically need insurance to cover all the non-experimental components.

What are the newest Treatment Resistant Depression clinical trials in Georgia?

Most recently, we added VLS-01 Buccal Film for Depression, BPL-003 for Treatment Resistant Depression and Ultrabrief Right Unilateral Electroconvulsive Therapy for Major Depression to the Power online platform.
