NCT ID NCT07087353
First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This study tests a smartphone app called Edra PRO that lets doctors check in on patients with moderate to severe depression remotely. About 594 adults will either use the app plus usual care or just usual care for 6 months. The goal is to see if the app helps reduce symptoms and improve quality of life.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- Edra PRO (remote monitoring software)
- What this could lead to
- If it works, this could give doctors a better way to track depression symptoms from home, potentially improving treatment and quality of life.
- What could go wrong
- This is a relatively early-stage trial testing a digital tool, not a drug. The app may not significantly improve outcomes over usual care, and results depend on patients consistently using it.
