OTC | NCT00214877 ↗ | Methylene Blue for Cognitive Dysfunction in Bipolar Disorder | Completed | Stanley Medical Research Institute | Phase 3 | 2003-11-01 | While many bipolar patients treated with mood stabilizing medications experience improvement in their symptoms, some continue to have ongoing difficulties with concentration and memory. The purpose of this study is to look at whether these symptoms can be improved by adding the compound methylene blue to the treatment plan of patients who are already taking lamotrigine. Methylene blue is an available 'over the counter medication' in Canada. It has been studied in the long-term treatment of mood symptoms in bipolar disorder. Several clinical studies done in bipolar disorder report that methylene blue has had positive effects on both cognition and mood. It is important to do further research in this area as we know that, for patients who continue to have ongoing cognitive difficulties, there is no recognized standard of care for bipolar patients who experience these type of deficits. |

NCT00000192 ↗ | Neurobiology of Opioid Dependence: 1 - 1 | Withdrawn | National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) | Phase 2 | 1993-01-01 | The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of lamotrigine on naloxone-precipitated opiate withdrawal. |
NCT00000192 ↗ | Neurobiology of Opioid Dependence: 1 - 1 | Withdrawn | Yale University | Phase 2 | 1993-01-01 | The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of lamotrigine on naloxone-precipitated opiate withdrawal. |
NCT00001482 ↗ | New Drugs in the Treatment of Mood Disorders | Completed | National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) | Phase 2 | 1995-05-01 | This clinical study compares the effectiveness of two anticonvulsants Lamotrigine (Lamictal) Monotherapy and Gabapentin (Neurontin) in patients with treatment resistant affective disorders. We initially have found that the response rate to lamotrigine (51%) exceeded that of gabapentin (28%) or placebo (21%). In this study the placebo phase has been dropped so that we examine possible clinical and biological factors predictors of response. The drugs will be given in a randomized order for six weeks each and you will not know when you are on a given one. There will be a 2-4 week "washout" period between treatments. If you respond well to one of these treatments, a longer open continuation period will be offered at the end of this study. This would involve one or both drugs in combination. A variety of rating scales and brain imaging procedures will also be offered before and during each drug evaluation. Both lamotrigine and gabapentin are generally well tolerated. A serious potentially life threatening rash occurs in about 1/500 patients treated with lamotrigine, however. Common side effects are rash, dizziness, unsteadiness, double vision, blurred vision, nausea, vomiting, insomnia, sedation, and headache. These side effects are usually mild, and resolve with continued time on the drug or a decrease in dosage. |
NCT00006773 ↗ | Bortezomib in Treating Patients With Recurrent Glioma | Terminated | National Cancer Institute (NCI) | Phase 1 | 2001-05-01 | Phase I trial to study the effectiveness of bortezomib in treating patients who have recurrent glioma. Bortezomib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking the enzymes necessary for tumor cell growth |
