Antibiotic tested as potential new hope for stubborn depression

NCT ID NCT06537921

Summary

This study is testing if adding the antibiotic minocycline to standard antidepressants is a practical and acceptable approach for people who have both obesity and depression that hasn't responded to other treatments. Researchers want to see if participants can complete the 8-week treatment and all the study tests, which include blood draws, questionnaires, and brain scans. The goal is to gather information to design a larger future trial, focusing on people who also show signs of body-wide inflammation.
