Optimize and Predict Antidepressant Efficacy for Patient With MDD Using Multi-omics Analysis and AI-predictive Tool

Optimize and Predict Antidepressant Efficacy for Patient With Major Depressive Disorders Using Multi-omics Analysis and AI-predictive Tool

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 15 May 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

OPADE is a non-profit, observational, multicenter, open-label study aimed at defining personalized treatment for Major Depressive Disorder (MDD). In particular, we will combine genetics, epigenetics, microbiome, immune response data together with anamnesis, questionnaires, electroencephalography (EEG) collected from subjects suffering MDD. Eventually, an Artificial Intelligence (AI)/Machine Learning (ML) predictive tool will be created to guide clinicians in improving MDD treatment and patient's stratification.
