Part A: Prevention of Depression Recurrence in Diabetes

  1. To determine the efficacy of maintenance antidepressant medication in preventing or delaying recur-rence of major depression in diabetes.
  2. To determine the relationship of sustained depression remission to social, occupational, and global func-tioning, and to quality of life and compliance with diabetes treatment.
  3. To determine clinical features predictive of depression recurrence in diabetes.

Part B. Longitudinal Study of the Interrelationship of Glycemic Control and Depression

  1. To determine the effects of depression remission and recurrence on glycemic control.
  2. To determine the efficacy of maintenance antidepressant medication in producing sustained benefits in glycemic control.
  3. To determine the interrelationship of daily mood with blood glucose and the effect of maintenance treatment on this relationship.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing sertraline in people with Major Depression and Diabetes, run by National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK) at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 2 Mar 2010. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 2 Mar 2010.
