Comparative Effectiveness Study of Two Forms of Ketamine for Treatment-resistant Depression
This study is recruiting. It focuses on depression and currently lists participation information in Australia.
DepressionDrugOver 18 Years
Key information made simple
This observational study is following people with Treatment Resistant Depression to understand outcomes over time. Participants mainly provide questionnaire, assessment, or follow-up information rather than receiving a new study treatment. Taking part may give some people access to questionnaires and follow-up with regular follow-up, but direct benefit is not guaranteed.
Your next step
The official record suggests in-person participation through a hospital, with sites including Royal Prince Alfred Hospital in Camperdown, Black Dog Institute in Randwick, and Ramsay Clinic Northside in St Leonards. Participation appears to involve questionnaires, interviews, or regular check-ins about day-to-day experience. The main fit is usually being able to understand the study and consent and having a stable enough treatment background for the study, while common reasons not to take part include other factors that could make participation unsuitable. This is a later-stage study, which usually means the approach is being followed in broader real-world use.
