Biomarkers of Neuroinflammation and Anti-Inflammatory Treatments in Major Depressive Disorder

22 maggio 2019 aggiornato da: Jeff Meyer, Centre for Addiction and Mental Health
The purpose of this study is to determine if translocator protein total distribution volume (TSPO VT) is elevated in major depressive disorder that is not responding to medication and if adding minocycline can affect TSPO VT. Many remain treatment resistant with common antidepressant treatments and the investigators think it may be due to poor targeting of brain pathologies.

Panoramica dello studio

Descrizione dettagliata

There will be three Phases in the study. Only MDE subjects will be invited to continue to Phase 2 and 3. Subjects will be invited to continue to the subsequent Phase given they meet entry criteria described below:

Phase 1: The investigators will evaluate whether TSPO is elevated in individuals during a current MDE compared to healthy controls. Eligible participants will receive one [18F]FEPPA PET scan and one MRI scan. Other measures will include urine sample, blood samples for genetic and peripheral biomarker analysis, a neurocognitive battery, mood scales and questionnaires.

Phase 2: Participants who have elevated TSPO VT in Phase 1 and are agreeable to receiving minocycline will be invited to participate in Phase 2. Based on our previous results participants will be considered candidates for Phase 2 if TSPO VT ≥ 10.5 (HAB) or ≥8.5 (MAB) in any of the primary regions of interest (prefrontal cortex, anterior cingulate cortex or insula). Eligible participants will be invited to participate in a randomized, double blind, placebo controlled trial, to receive either minocycline or placebo. After the eight weeks of treatment, participants will receive one [18F]FEPPA PET scan. Other measures will include urine samples, blood samples, mood scales and questionnaires.

Phase 3: If, after the initial eight week treatment period with either minocycline or placebo, any participant continues to have depressive symptoms (17-item Hamilton Depression Rating Scale score ≥ 8) they will be invited to participate in an eight week open label trial of celecoxib. Participants not eligible for Phase 2 may also be invited to participate in Phase 3 directly from Phase 1.

Dettagli di progettazione

  • Scopo principale: Scienza basilare
  • Assegnazione: Randomizzato
  • Modello interventistico: Assegnazione di gruppo singolo
  • Mascheramento: Quadruplicare

Armi e interventi

Gruppo di partecipanti / Arm
Intervento / Trattamento
Sperimentale: Minocycline
The dose of minocycline would be 50mg per day on week 1, 50mg bid on week 2 and 100mg bid weeks 3-8. For tapering, the dose will be reduced to 50mg bid for a week, and then stopped.
50 mg and 100 mg capsule, oral administration
Altri nomi:
  • Mylan-minocycline
Comparatore placebo: Placebo
The number and appearance of the pills would be identical to those in the minocycline arm.
Lactose monohydrate in identical gel capsules to minocycline, oral administration.
Altri nomi:
  • Lattosio monoidrato
Altro: Celecoxib
This will be an open label trial for those with Hamilton Depression Rating Scale score ≥ 8 following the minocycline v. placebo trial or those not eligible for Phase 2. Dose of celecoxib will be 100 mg bid for the first week and 200mg bid for weeks 2-8. For tapering, the dose of celecoxib will be reduced to 100mg bid for one week, and then stopped.
