PET Biomarker Study for Antidepressant Response Prediction in Major Depressive Disorder

Обзор

Major depressive disorder has a prevalence of 4.7% in the general population and is ranked as the leading cause of disability worldwide. The efficacy of current antidepressants is limited, as 50-60% of patients do not achieve a sufficient response to treatment : 12% achieve only a partial response, while 19-34% do not respond at all. These uncertain clinical effects are only observed after several weeks of treatment. For better patient management, there is an urgent need to identify markers for predicting and monitoring therapeutic response. Psychiatrists at the Nancy Psychotherapeutic Center are about to launch a "MESANTIDEP" study, in which they will evaluate the electroretinogram (ERG) as a biomarker for predicting and monitoring therapeutic response. The TEPDEP study described in this protocol would evaluate 18F-FDG brain PET/CT as a biomarker for predicting antidepressant response in a treatment-naive patient population. It is planned to offer the PET/CT study to patients included in the SSRI arm of the MesantiDEP study. The hypothesis of this study is that 18F-FDG PET/CT could be a biomarker for predicting response to selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) antidepressants.

Подробное описание

Major depressive disorder has a prevalence of 4.7% in the general population and is ranked as the leading cause of disability worldwide . The efficacy of current antidepressants is limited, as 50-60% of patients do not achieve a sufficient response to treatment: 12% achieve only a partial response, while 19-34% do not respond at all . These uncertain clinical effects are only observed after several weeks of treatment . For better patient management, there is an urgent need to identify markers for predicting and monitoring therapeutic response.

Psychiatrists at the Nancy Psychotherapeutic Center are about to launch a "MESANTIDEP" study, in which they will evaluate the electroretinogram as a biomarker for predicting and monitoring therapeutic response.

In the literature, numerous studies have shown a pattern of carbohydrate hypometabolism characteristic of depression, identified by 18F-FDG brain PET/CT scans. Cerebral metabolism patterns predictive of antidepressant response have also been demonstrated in some clinical trials, with hypermetabolism of the anterior cingulate in responders; and more severe hypometabolism of the anterior cingulate , dorsolateral prefrontal cortex and premotor area in non-responders. However, the studies in the literature group together very heterogeneous populations, with a large proportion of patients not naïve to antidepressant treatment.

The TEPDEP study described in this protocol would evaluate Positons Eission Tomography (PET) with flurodeoxyglucose labelled with fluor-18 (18F-FDG) brain as a biomarker for predicting antidepressant response in a treatment-naive patient population.

It is planned to offer the PET/CT study to patients included in the SSRI arm of the MesantiDEP study.

The hypothesis of this study is that 18F-FDG PET/CT could be a biomarker for predicting response to selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) antidepressants.
