Ketamine and Postoperative Depressive Symptom-PASSION

July 2, 2020 updated by: Yuming Peng, Beijing Tiantan Hospital

Effect of Low-dose Ketamine on Postoperative Depressive Symptom in Patients Undergoing Intracranial Tumor Resection (PASSION)

Perioperative depression symptom (PDS) is one of the common mental comorbidity, and influences the clinical outcomes and prognosis. However, there is no rapid acting treatment to deal with it during the limited hospital stay. This study aims to determine whether ketamine could improve the depressive symptom of peirioperative patients. It will also examine the safety for administrating ketamine as an antidepressant intraoperatively. Meanwhile, it will show if ketamine could improve anxiety, postoperative pain or delirium. This trial also will bring great concerns on patients with perioperative mental health and explore the measures to improve their psycho-related prognosis.

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Response rate
Time Frame: Postoperative 3 days
≥50% reduction in MADRS scores from baseline value.The MADRS is a 10-item tool, with scores ranging from 0 to 60, and determining the severity of depression.
Postoperative 3 days

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Severe pain
Time Frame: Postoperative 3 days.
The incidence of severe pain within first postoperative three days, which is defined as mean and peak numerical rating scale (NRS) are higher than 5.
Postoperative 3 days.
The remission rate
Time Frame: Postoperative 3 days and discharge.
The remission rate is defined as the absolute value of MADRS no more than 10.
Postoperative 3 days and discharge.
Anxiety symptom
Time Frame: Postoperative 3 days.
The anxious symptom is defined as HADS score no less than 11.
Postoperative 3 days.
Postoperative delirium
Time Frame: Postoperative 1 day.
Postoperative delirium will be assessed by the Confusion Assessment Method for the Intensive Care Unit Scale (CAM-ICU) at 2 hours and 1 day after surgery.
Postoperative 1 day.
Postoperative 30-day quality of life reported by KPS
Time Frame: Postoperative 30 days
The quality of life will be evaluated by Karnofsky performance status (KPS) at postoperative 30 days.
Postoperative 30 days
Psychiatric outcomes and complications
Time Frame: Postoperative 3 days and discharge.
Postoperative complications include psychiatric symptoms evaluated by Brief Psychiatric Rating Scale (BPRS), manic symptoms assessed through the 11-item Young Mania Rating Scale (YMRS), and dissociative symptoms measured by the Clinician Administered Dissociative States Scale (CADSS). Moreover, postoperative complications also include aphasia, epilepsy, hemorrhage.
