About this study

Official title: Toi Même: a Mobile System for Measuring Bipolar Illness Activity - Feasibility Study

Bipolar disorder is a severe psychiatric illness with chronic course and it is associated with high risk of relapse and hospitalisation, and many patients do not recover to their previous psychosocial functioning. Major reasons for poor outcomes are delayed intervention for prodromal mood and behavioural symptoms as well as incomplete treatment responses. Current diagnostic approaches used to assess mood symptoms rely on symptom-based categories, which lack sensitivity to detect subtle mood and behavioural changes. Therefore, the ability to better characterizing bipolar patients may allow to detect possible differences in the illness activity.

On the other hand, there is a growing interest in the potential use of mobile technologies such as mobile apps, smartphone and internet in psychiatric care. Some projects have been testing the potential benefits of mobile apps to assess and treat individuals at-risk or suffering from mood and bipolar disorders, using online signs and symptoms monitoring, yet to the investigators knowledge, none of them have integrated a dimensional approach in a smartphone app to assess mood and behavioural alterations and bipolar illness activity, including subjective and objective data (e.g. physical activity, social activity, etc.).

In this feasibility study the investigators will evaluate the potential relevance of Toi Même app to self-monitoring mood and behavioural changes in bipolar patients with different mood phases compared to the gold-standard mood rating tools used in clinical practice. All patients will be followed for 3 months, with outcome assessments after 2 weeks, after 1 month, 2 months and after 3 months.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Daily self-monitoring in people with Bipolar Disorder, run by Institut Pasteur at 3 sites in France.

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 2 inclusion and 2 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 19 Dec 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites in France. 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.

Are results available for this study?

The study was stopped early (reason given: Suspended since april 2020 as the application is temporarily unavailable). Results are not available in the source record.

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.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Severity of depressive symptoms (time frame: 3 months study period). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03508427, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 19 Dec 2023.
