Brief Summary

Depression is a very common, serious and in some cases life-threatening condition, affecting around 350 million people globally. Approximately 11% of citizens in the European Union suffer from depression at some point in their lives. Depression is associated with significant socio-economic costs and has been predicted to become the greatest cause of disability worldwide by 2030 . In 2010 it was estimated that there were approximately 30 million patients with depression in Europe, with aggregated economic costs of approximately €92 billion . Improvements in managing the treatment of depression are urgently needed to improve patient outcomes, contain rising healthcare costs, improve workplace productivity and help to address global economic and societal challenges. While a range of effective antidepressant medications are available to treat depression, it takes 4-6 weeks after starting antidepressant treatment before a physician can detect whether the treatment is working. However, surprisingly, more than 50% of patients fail to respond to the first antidepressant treatment they are prescribed. Therefore, it often takes several months to identify an effective antidepressant treatment for the majority of patients with depression. During this time a patient's ability to work and function socially is severely impaired. Individuals may be absent from work for many weeks or months and this places a substantial burden on the economy and on healthcare resources.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Increase in proportion of depressed patients showing a response to treatment at week 8 when using the PReDicT Test to direct antidepressant treatment compared to treatment as usual as measured by the QIDS-SR-16

    QIDS-SR-16 is a standard questionnaire "The Quick Inventory of Depressive Symptomatology" (16-Item) (Self-Report). This covers questions on falling asleep, sleep during the night, waking up , sleeping too much, feeling sad ,appetite, weight, concentration , how they view themselves, thoughts of death and suicide, general interests, energy levels, feeling slowed down , feeling restless. These will be compared at baseline and after 8 weeks of treatment.

    8 weeks

Secondary Outcomes (16)

  • Compare the change from baseline in QIDS-SR-16 scores

    8 weeks

  • Increase in proportion of depressed patients showing a response to treatment at week 8 when using the PReDicT Test to direct antidepressant treatment compared to treatment as usual as measured by a reduction of >50% in the MADRS score

    8 weeks

  • Increase in proportion of depressed patients showing remission from depression at week 8 when using the PReDicT Test to direct antidepressant treatment compared to treatment as usual as measured by a QIDS-SR-16 score <=5

    8 Weeks

  • Compare changes in baseline of the QIDS-SR-16 score

    12 weeks

  • Compare changes in baseline of the QIDS-SR-16 score

    24 weeks and 48 weeks

  • +11 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (2)

PReDicT Test

EXPERIMENTAL

To determine whether use of the PReDicT Test to direct antidepressant treatment results in an increased proportion of depressed patients showing a response to treatment at week 8

Device: PReDicT Test

Treatment as usual

PLACEBO COMPARATOR

Treat patients as usual without using the predict test to determine treatment.

Other: Treatment as Usual

Interventions

PReDicT Test, when completed 7-9 days after starting antidepressant treatment, is able to predict a patient's subsequent response to that antidepressant treatment 4-6 weeks later

PReDicT Test

Patients treated by the clinician conventionally using signs and symptoms to determine treatment changes or medication changes.

Treatment as usual
