  • Esketamine Research Study for Depression

    Have you been diagnosed with depression and have not responded to prior treatment with an antidepressant?

    While antidepressant medications are available to treat depression, some patients do not benefit even after multiple treatments.

    We are currently enrolling participants in a clinical research study for patients with depression who have not responded to prior treatment with an antidepressant. We will look at the effectiveness of an investigational nasal spray medication in delaying the return of depression symptoms in these patients.

    To be considered for the study, you must be 18 to 64 years of age, diagnosed with depression, and experiencing depression symptoms despite having taken an antidepressant medications in the past. Additional requirements for being in the study will be discussed with you.

    Eligible study participants will receive all study visits and study-related medical care at no cost.

    Compensation for time and travel expenses may also be provided.
