Major Depressive Disorder

Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) (also known as clinical depression, major depression, unipolar depression; or as recurrent depression in the case of repeated episodes) is a mental disorder characterized by a pervasive and persistent low mood that is accompanied by feelings of sadness, low self-esteem and by a loss of interest or pleasure in normally enjoyable activities. While there are many medications currently available to treat this condition, many people remain dissatisfied with the degree of relief these drugs provide.

If you are someone who suffers from depression and are looking for a more effective and reliable means of relief, you may wish to consider participating in a clinical trial we have been commissioned to conduct to evaluate the potential effectiveness of a new approach to the treatment of this disorder.

At a minimum, in order to be eligible to participate, you must be someone who
➢ Is at least 18 years of age, and
➢ Been diagnosed as someone suffering from Major Depressive Disorder.
➢ Note: Additional entry criteria apply

Participation is strictly confidential. Study medication, and study-related visits, procedures and tests are offered free of charge. We also offer limited financial compensation, as well as reimbursement to cover reasonable food and travel-related expenses.
