Title | Pharmacometabolomic mapping of early biochemical changes induced by sertraline and placebo |
Overall design | The aim of this study was to characterize early biochemical changes associated with sertraline and placebo administration and changes associated with a reduction in depressive symptoms in patients with major depressive disorder (MDD). MDD patients received sertraline (sertraline group, n = 43) or placebo (placebo group, n = 46) in a double-blind 4-week trial; baseline, 1 week, and 4 weeks serum samples were profiled using a gas chromatography time of flight mass spectrometry metabolomics platform. Metabolomic changes after 4 weeks of treatment in both groups were identified. |
