Voice Changes During ECT
Description

Depressed patients talk differently when they are depressed compared to when they are well. But it is hard to actually measure what the differences are. The study team will record voice samples from patients with mood disturbances, like depression, over the course of their receiving an electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) series. The study team will try and measure or quantify exactly what has changed in their speech and voice. The study team will choose ECT as it is one of the most effective and rapid treatment for depression. The study team will use a service provided by a company, NeuroLex, who has complex computer programs (artificial intelligence, AI) to analyze the voice samples.

COMPLETED
Inositol Hexaphosphate: A Novel Treatment Strategy for Bipolar Disorder?
Description

Inositol hexaphosphate (IP6, also called inositol hexakisphosphate, and phytic acid) is a naturally occurring phosphorylated derivative of myo-inositol. Myo-inositol has shown preliminary evidence of efficacy in controlling mood symptoms, and good tolerability in bipolar disorder in some studies, but failed to establish efficacy in subsequent meta-analyses. In the investigators proposed work, the investigators plan to orally administer the calcium/magnesium salt of IP6 (2,000-3,000 mg daily in two divided doses) to paid research subjects with a diagnosis of bipolar disorder who are in a depressed state, and who have failed an adequate course of treatment with lithium monotherapy. The investigators hypothesis is that IP6 may be similar to myo-inositol in terms of relieving depression, but more potent and effective. Our aim is conduct a preliminary pilot study in 30 subjects (15 treated with IP6, 15 treated with lamotrigine, an active comparator) to assess the efficacy and tolerability of IP6 as an adjunctive treatment to lithium, the mood stabilizer most commonly used to treat bipolar disorder.

Pharmacokinetics of Quetiapine Across Pregnancy and Postpartum
Description

The widespread and common use of quetiapine in childbearing and pregnant women demands more data to inform dosing and toxicity in pregnancy. The new FDA Pregnancy and Lactation Labeling Final Rule (PLLR) will go into effect on June 30th, 2015 and will replace the prior A, B, C, D, and X categories. Additionally, the PLLR will require information to aid prescribing decisions in three categories 1) Pregnancy (including labor and delivery), 2) Lactation, and 3) Females and Males of Reproductive Potential. The pregnancy category will include a subsection that will describe pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic characteristics of the medication in pregnancy, fetal risk, and data quality. The data collected in this study will update the FDA pregnancy pharmacokinetic section for quetiapine and inform physicians that prescribe to childbearing women.

COMPLETED
Decision-Making in Bipolar Disorder
Description

Forty subjects with bipolar disorder who are not receiving a mood-stabilizing medication for the treatment of their illness will participate in this study. The study aims to evaluate how decision-making is affected by treatment for bipolar disorder. Prior to beginning treatment, patients will complete questionnaires and a one-hour computer-administered assessment of decision-making. Differences between pre-post decision-making outcomes will be evaluated to examine whether the neuroeconomic concepts of risk aversion, loss aversion, risk tolerance and delay discounting are affected by treatment. The overall goal of this study will be to identify whether decision-making in people with bipolar disorder is affected by treatment. Specifically the investigators will compare decision-making characteristics among bipolar patients prior to treatment with how these decision-making characteristics change over the course of 6 weeks of standard medication therapy for bipolar disorder. A total of 6 decision-making tasks and one control task will be administered via computer to eligible subjects. The investigators will evaluate decision-making under varying conditions of reward, risk, and uncertainty and over time. The investigators hypothesize that decision-making will improve across these assessments after 6 weeks of treatment.
