About this study

Official title: Pharmaco(Epi)Genetic, Proteomic, and Microbiomic Study of Obsessive-Compulsive

The purpose of this study is to determine whether pharmaco(epi)genetic study predict selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) responsiveness in advance before the appearance of the drug effect until 4 months(16 weeks), 6 months, and 1 year after administration of SSRIs.

Read the detailed description

The purpose of this study is to determine the effects of (epi)genetic variants on the response to SSRIs in obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) subject.

The investigators will recruit drug-naive or drug-free(> 3 months) OCD subjects (n=200). The participants will get SSRIs for their OCD symptoms. The type and dose of SSRIs will not be restricted and will depend on the individual participant's state. However, the investigators will be recommended to follow usual clinical guideline (the Korean treatment algorithm for OCD, 2004). At baseline, 4 month, 6 months, and 1 year after treatment, the participants will be evaluated by Yale-Brown Obsessive-Compulsive Scale(YBOCS), Montgomery Asberg Depression Rating Scale(MADRS), Dimensional Obsessive-Compulsive Scale(DOCS), Toronto alexithymia scale (TAS), interpersonal reactivity index (IRI), Barratt impulsiveness scale (BIS), and the Measure of Constructs Underlying Perfectionism(M-CUP), Beck Depression Inventory(BDI), Beck Anxiety Inventory(BAI), Intolerance of Uncertainty (IOU), Metacognition, Disgust scale, Early Trauma Inventory (ETI). And a part of participants will be taken resting state functional MRI.

The research participants will donate approximately 10-15 ml of blood, from which we will extract DNA and separate serum. Using various (epi)genetic analyses, proteomics, and microbiome analysis (circulating bacterial extracellular vesicles) methods, we will analyze the association of various (epi)genetic variants, protein profiles, microbiome and the anti-obsessive-compulsive responses.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Change from baseline in the Yale-Brown Obsessive-Compulsive Scale

    rating scale for obsessive-compulsive symptom severity consisting of 10 items

    Measured: baseline, 3 or 4 months, 6 months, 1 year

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Change from the baseline Montgomery-Asberg Depression Rating Scale

    rating scale for depressive symptom severity consisting of 10 items, Various psychometric characteristics

    Measured: baseline, 3 or 4 months, 6 months, 1 year

  2. Occurrence of any side effects during the SSRIs treatment

    any adverse events related to SSRI use

    Measured: 3 or 4 months, 6 months, 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing SSRIs in people with Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder, run by Severance Hospital at 1 site in South Korea.

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 4 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 27 Dec 2024. 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 South Korea. 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.

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

Contact Se Joo Kim, M.D. (+82-2-2228-1627, kimsejoo@yuhs.ac), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Change from baseline in the Yale-Brown Obsessive-Compulsive Scale (time frame: baseline, 3 or 4 months, 6 months, 1 year). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

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 27 Dec 2024.
