Brief Summary:
Ketamine infusions resulted in an acute reduction in global depression scores and in severity of suicidal ideation Scopolamine infusions produced also a significant improvement in depression that was sustained over time
We therefore plan to investigate the feasibility and efficacy of open-label repeated intravenous administration of ketamine and scopolamine combined in this population of severely depressed treatment-resistant patients The results from this study could lead to the development of new strategies for the treatment of patients with TRD
