Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Major Depressive Disorder is one of the most common mental diseases,which increases health-care costs and the financial burden to families and societies. Considering its complex clinical symptoms and diversity of comorbidity, depressive disorder's recognition,diagnosis,and antihistone are based on symptomatology,which is lack of multidimensional diagnosis technique based on clinical pathological characteristics,as well as lack of individualized therapy strategy based on quantified evaluation. Besides, other physical diseases,such as nervous system diseases, cardiovascular diseases,endocrine diseases, have the high comorbidity of depressive disorder. However,there is no precise diagnosis technique or standardized therapy strategy. With all those taken into consideration,our study is aimed to adopt E-mental health and m-Health to explore multi-dimensional diagnosis, individualized therapy and management technique based on molecular biology,nerve electrophysiology,and neuroimaging technology etc.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Four parts included in our study:

Part 1:The research, development and verification of indicators based on biomarkers and clinical characteristics to guide the diagnosis and treatment of depressive disorders

1. to screen biomarkers, to explore its pathophysiology, and to analyze the correlation between clinical subtypes/characteristics and biomarkers.
2. To differentiate the subtypes of depressive disorder(depression/underload, atypical, anxiety/somatization) based on clinical symptoms and clinical assessement.
3. To establish personalized therapy strategies,and to explore tool kits for diagnosis and treatment based on biomarkers and clinical characteristics.
4. to choose appropriate indicators to monitor therapy and side effect by collecting and analyzing blood/imaging/neuropsychological data.

Part 2: The development,transition and application of hierarchical model diagnostic technique for physical diseases combined with depressive disorder.

1. to recruit patients with physical diseases combined with depressive disorder, and explore potential biomarkers.
2. To chose appropriate therapy strategies based on measurement based care(MBC), providing hierarchical model diagnostic technique for patients.
3. To weigh therapy efficiency and adverse effect among different medicine therapy groups.

Part3: The development and application of comprehensive prevention, diagnosis,and intervention model of depressive disorder.

1. To explore and establish online screening and assistant diagnosis system for patients with depressive disorder.
2. research ,development and application of intelligent e-MBC. Part 4: The development,transition and application of e-MBC sharing platform.

Study Design

Understand how the trial is structured, including allocation methods, masking strategies, primary purpose, and other design elements.

Allocation Method

RANDOMIZED

Intervention Model

PARALLEL

Part 2: all patients before receiving any medicine treatment are divided into four groups which adopt different therapy strategies :treatment with fluvoxamine, fluoxetine, mirtazapine and treatment as usual(TAU).Meanwhile,patients with different subtypes of depressive disorder were randomly assigned to different therapy groups.Each therapy groups contains 50 participants.Therefore, the total sample size is 50\*12+200=800.

Part3:To find out efficiency of different kinds of therapy strategies.p=60%, error=5%,a-0.05,the amount of samples nearly is:867,considering the nearly 30% expulsion rate, the final total sample size is 867+260=1127.Therefore,sample size in each group is nearly 376.

Part4:p=60%,error=0.05, a=0.05, exculsion rate=30%,N=867+260=1127.the amount of samples of each group is 1127/3=nearly 400.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Depression/underload 1

This group would be treated with fluoxetine from the minimum dosage.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Fluoxetine

Intervention Type DRUG

Fluoxetine is one kind of selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor(SSRIs), whose effect is much better than other non-underload subtypes compared with underload subtypes.So patients would be treated with fluoxetine only.

Depression/underload 2

This group would be treated with fluoxetine combined with cognitive behavior treatment

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

fluoxetine + cognitive-behavioral treatment(CBT)

Intervention Type COMBINATION_PRODUCT

the investigators would recommend fluoxetine to help to cure depressive disorder.And CBT is a very effective way for patients to alleviate or relieve clinical symptoms during episode stage.

Depression/underload 3

This group would be treated with fluoxetine and amfebutamone from the minimum dosage.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

fluoxetine + Amfebutamone

Intervention Type DRUG

Amfebutamone is one kind of SNRIs, and it shows much better therapy effect on patients with exhaustion /dizziness.So the investigators recommend these two drugs to help to cure patients with depressive disorder.

Depression/underload 4

This group would be treated with fluoxetine + physical treatment to help to cure depressive disorder.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

physical treatment+fluoxetine+amfebutamone

Intervention Type COMBINATION_PRODUCT

the investigators recommend drug(fluoxetine and amfebutamone) and physical treatment as intervention.

Atypical 1

This group would be treated with fluvoxamine from the minimum dosage.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Fluvoxamine

Intervention Type DRUG

Fluvoxamine could inhibit CYP1A2 and CYP2C19 and affect the metabolism of melatonin, and help to release symptoms of depressive disorder with sleep problems.

Atypical 2

This group would be treated with fluoxetine + cognitive behavior treatment

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Cognitive behavior treatment +fluvoxamine

Intervention Type COMBINATION_PRODUCT

the investigators recommend behavioral therapy as well as drugs.

Atypical 3

This group would be treated with fluvoxamine + lithium from the minimum dosage.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Intervention Type DRUG

the investigators recommend lithium as a mood stabilizer and use fluvoxamine to affect the level of melatonin.

Atypical 4

This group would be treated with fluvoxamine + lithium + physical treatment

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

fluvoxamine + lithium + physical therapy

Intervention Type COMBINATION_PRODUCT

the investigators recommend depressants and mood stabilizers as well as physical therapy to help to cure depressive disorder.

Anxiety/somatization 1

This group would be treated with mirtazapine/selective serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors(SNRIs) from the minimum dosage.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Mirtazapine/SNRIs

Intervention Type DRUG

Mirtazapine is one kind of antagonist of a2 adrenergic receptors and could block 5-hydroxytryptamine2 and 5-hydroxytryptamine3,help to release symptoms like anxiety or somatization.Besides, SNRIs could also make similar effect on patients.Therefore, the investigators recommend mirtazapine/SNRIs to treat patients with depressive disorder.
