VIENNA -- A quantitative EEG bio-marker shows considerable promise for prediction of antidepressant response in major depression, Dr. Andrew J. Leuchter said at the annual congress of the European College of Neuropsychopharmacology.
The biomarker is obtained via an abbreviated frontal EEG study conducted after 1 week of therapy. The potential here is that the current and often prolonged trial-and-error approach to finding an effective antidepressant for an individual with major depression could be replaced by a 10- to 15-minute quantitative EEG study analyzed using proprietary technology in real time in a physician's office, explained Dr. Leuchter.
