mianserin and Recrudescence

mianserin has been researched along with Recrudescence in 30 studies

Mianserin: A tetracyclic compound with antidepressant effects. It may cause drowsiness and hematological problems. Its mechanism of therapeutic action is not well understood, although it apparently blocks alpha-adrenergic, histamine H1, and some types of serotonin receptors.
mianserin : A dibenzoazepine (specifically 1,2,3,4,10,14b-hexahydrodibenzo[c,f]pyrazino[1,2-a]azepine) methyl-substituted on N-2. Closely related to (and now mostly superseded by) the tetracyclic antidepressant mirtazapinean, it is an atypical antidepressant used in the treatment of depression throughout Europe and elsewhere.

Trial Outcomes

Quality of Life Inventory

The Quality of Life Inventory (QOLI) is a 32-item comprehensive self-report of satisfaction in 16 areas of life, such as love, work, and health. Each area is rated in terms of satisfaction and the relationship of that area to overall quality of life. It yields an overall raw score and satisfaction ratings for the 16 individual areas of life. The QOLI raw score is an average of weighted satisfaction ratings computed only over areas of life judged to be Important or Extremely Important to the respondent. Higher scores indicate higher reported quality of life. (NCT00590863)
Timeframe: Measured at Month 7

Interventionunits on a scale (Mean)
Escitalopram + Bupropion SR0.6
Venlafaxine XR + Mirtazapine0.4
Escitalopram + Placebo0.4

Quick Inventory of Depressive Symptoms

Percentage of patients that achieve remission, as defined as QIDS total score below 6 for last 2 study visits. QIDS depression scores range from 0 (normal) to 27 (very severe). (NCT00590863)
Timeframe: Measured at Month 7

Interventionpercentage of participants (Number)
Escitalopram + Bupropion SR46.6
Venlafaxine XR + Mirtazapine41.8
Escitalopram + Placebo46.0

Average Latency to Persistent Sleep (LPS) During the In-Treatment Period

LPS was defined as the time in minutes from lights out to the first 20 consecutive epochs scored as sleep as measured by PSG. LPS was calculated as the mean of Nights 1, 15, and 36. (NCT00506389)
Timeframe: From Day 1 to Day 36

InterventionMinutes (Mean)
Esmirtazapine 3.0 mg28.7
Esmirtazapine 4.5 mg26.1
Placebo40.5

Average Subjective Total Sleep Time (TST) During the In-Treatment Period

TST was defined as the total amount of time in minutes that was actually spent sleeping the previous night as recorded daily in the participant's sleep diary. TST values over the 6 week In-Treatment Period were averaged for each participant, and average TST was then reported by treatment arm. For participants with missing data, the average of the nights for which TST data were available was used in the analysis. (NCT00506389)
Timeframe: From Day 1 to Day 36

InterventionMinutes (Mean)
Esmirtazapine 3.0 mg384.6
Esmirtazapine 4.5 mg384.6
Placebo351.6

Average Wake Time After Sleep Onset (WASO) During the In-Treatment Period

WASO was defined as the total objective time awake after the onset of persistent sleep until the end of the 8-hour sleep cycle period as measured by polysomnography (PSG). WASO was calculated as the mean of Nights 1, 15, and 36. (NCT00506389)
Timeframe: From Day 1 to Day 36
