Brief Summary: This study aims to examine the antidepressant efficacy of riluzole employing a randomized double-blind placebo-controlled adjunctive trial in treatment-resistant major depressive disorder TRD
Detailed Description: This study aims to examine the antidepressant efficacy of riluzole employing a randomized double-blind placebo-controlled 8 week trial of adjunctive trial in treatment-resistant major depressive disorder TRD Preclinical studies have shown riluzole to modulate Glu release and clearance and to have potent neuroprotective properties promoting neuro-resiliency Other preclinical data now also show the drug to have antidepressant-like effects in rodent models used to screen for antidepressant activity In addition several small open-label clinical studies further suggest riluzole has antidepressant and anxiolytic properties even in patients who do not respond to standard monoaminergic antidepressant and anxiolytic medications
