BACKGROUND: Melancholia has been positioned as a qualitatively different form of Major Depressive Disorder (MDD). Some studies have suggested that melancholic MDD patients may show lower remission when receiving treatment with Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors, but this has not yet been explored in large, representative samples of MDD.
METHODS: We used data from the STAR*D, a multisite randomized controlled trial (n = 4041). We defined melancholia status through the BA Melancholia Empirical Index, constructed using items from the Inventory of Depressive Symptomatology (IDSC). The main outcome of interest was symptomatic remission defined as a Quick Inventory of Depressive Symptoms (Clinician version) (QIDS-C) below or equal to 5. Inverse probability weighting was used to control for confounding.
RESULTS: 3827 patients were eligible for this study. Melancholic patients were more likely to be unemployed, never married, to self-report an African American race, and to have a higher depressive severity. The adjusted 4-month probability of remission was 26.9 % (22.0, 45.5) for melancholic and 53.8 % (53.2, 58.5), for nonmelancholic patients. Compared with nonmelancholic, the difference in 4-month probability of remission was -26.9 % (-37.0, -15.6). Results were consistent across sensitivity analyses.
LIMITATIONS: Items from IDSC were used as a surrogate measure of the BA Melancholia Index, and extrapolation of the results to agents other than citalopram and to psychotic MDD patients requires caution.
CONCLUSIONS: Melancholic MDD patients showed lower probabilities of remission at 4-months receiving treatment with citalopram. The results of this study show how validly subtyping episodes could contribute to the personalized treatment of depression.
