Summary

The lay summary the sponsor registered on ClinicalTrials.gov.

The purpose of this study is to determine the impact of inflammation on central nervous system (CNS) glutamate, white matter pathology and alterations in behavior and cognition in middle-aged patients with major depression. Depression is associated with significant alterations in glutamate concentrations and white matter integrity, which has been associated with decreased antidepressant response, poor functional outcome, and cognitive impairment.
