About Depression
Depression is a lot more common than you may think; an estimated 21 million adults in the United States have had at least one major depressive episode.1 MDD is a disease that causes depression, more than just being sad, for most of the day, and lasts for at least two weeks or more.
Primary symptoms of MDD are depressed mood or loss of interest or pleasure; while secondary symptoms of MDD include appetite or weight changes, sleep difficulties, fatigue or loss of energy, and feelings of worthlessness or excessive guilt.2
There are multiple factors believed to cause MDD, including genetic, environmental, and social factors.3 MDD can be managed with various treatment measures, including therapy, medication, and lifestyle modifications.4
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a clinical research study?
A Clinical Research Study (also called a clinical trial) is a medical study that helps answer important questions about an investigational drug or device, such as: does it work, or how effective is it compared to another drug/device?
All medications must be tested in clinical research studies before they can be approved by regulatory authorities for doctors to prescribe to patients. Without people taking part in these studies, we would have no new treatments. The volunteers who participate in clinical research studies play a major role in helping to advance medicine.
What can you expect from the Depression Study?
The Depression Study will include various visits to a study clinic in your area and follow up phone calls at designated times.
All study-related care is provided at no cost to you. You do not need health insurance to participate.
