End-Stage Renal Disease and Depression: a Systematic Review Evidence Synthesis Program End-stage Renal Disease and Depression: A Systematic Review January 2020 Prepared for: Authors: Department of Veterans Affairs Principal Investigator: Veterans Health Administration Karli Kondo, PhD Health Services Research & Development Service Washington, DC 20420 Co-Investigators: Chelsea Ayers, MPH Prepared by: Pavan Chopra, MD Evidence Synthesis Program (ESP) Center Jennifer Antick, PhD Portland VA Health Care System Devan Kansagara, MD, MCR Portland, OR Devan Kansagara, MD, MCR, Director ESRD and Depression Evidence Synthesis Program PREFACE The VA Evidence Synthesis Program (ESP) was established in 2007 to provide timely and accurate syntheses of targeted healthcare topics of importance to clinicians, managers, and policymakers as they work to improve the health and healthcare of Veterans. These reports help: • Develop clinical policies informed by evidence; • Implement effective services to improve patient outcomes and to support VA clinical practice guidelines and performance measures; and • Set the direction for future research to address gaps in clinical knowledge. The program is comprised of four ESP Centers across the US and a Coordinating Center located in Portland, Oregon. Center Directors are VA clinicians and recognized leaders in the field of evidence synthesis with close ties to the AHRQ Evidence-based Practice Center Program and Cochrane Collaboration. The Coordinating Center was created to manage program operations, ensure methodological consistency and quality of products, and interface with stakeholders. To ensure responsiveness to the needs of decision-makers, the program is governed by a Steering Committee comprised of health system leadership and researchers. The program solicits nominations for review topics several times a year via the program website. Comments on this evidence report are welcome and can be sent to Nicole Floyd, Deputy Director, ESP Coordinating Center at [email protected].

This report is based on research conducted by the Evidence Synthesis Program (ESP) Center located at the VA Portland Healthcare System, Portland, OR, funded by the Department of Veterans Affairs, Veterans Health Administration, Health Services Research and Development. The findings and conclusions in this document are those of the author(s) who are responsible for its contents; the findings and conclusions do not necessarily represent the views of the Department of Veterans Affairs or the United States government. Therefore, no statement in this article should be construed as an official position of the Department of Veterans Affairs. No investigators have any affiliations or financial involvement (eg, employment, consultancies, honoraria, stock ownership or options, expert testimony, grants or patents received or pending, or royalties) that conflict with material presented in the report. i ESRD and Depression Evidence Synthesis Program ACKNOWLEDGMENTS This topic was developed in response to a nomination by the VHA Kidney Disease and Dialysis Program office and the VHA Dialysis Dashboard committee for an evidence review on screening and treatment of depression in end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients. The scope was further developed with input from the topic nominators (ie, Operational Partners), the ESP Coordinating Center, the review team, and the technical expert panel (TEP). In designing the study questions and methodology at the outset of this report, the ESP consulted several technical and content experts. Broad expertise and perspectives were sought. Divergent and conflicting opinions are common and perceived as healthy scientific discourse that results in a thoughtful, relevant systematic review. Therefore, in the end, study questions, design, methodologic approaches, and/or conclusions do not necessarily represent the views of individual technical and content experts. The authors gratefully acknowledge Robin Paynter, MLIS, and the following individuals for their contributions to this project: Operational Partners Operational partners are system-level stakeholders who have requested the report to inform decision-making. They recommend Technical Expert Panel (TEP) participants; assure VA relevance; help develop and approve final project scope and timeframe for completion; provide feedback on draft report; and provide consultation on strategies for dissemination of the report to field and relevant groups.

  • Clinical Guideline Drug/Drug Class: Antipsychotics Prepared By
    MassHealth Drug Utilization Review Program Commonwealth Medicine University of Massachusetts Medical School P.O. Box 2586 Worcester MA, 01613-2586 Clinical Guideline Drug/Drug Class: Antipsychotics Prepared by: Drug Utilization Review Program Prepared for: MassHealth Pharmacy Program Purpose: The purpose of this guideline is to clarify the procedures for approving and denying prior authorization (PA) requests for: Polypharmacy with two or more antipsychotics for members ≥ 18 years old (including first- generation [typical] and second-generation [atypical]) for greater than 60 days (excluding clozapine and injectable formulations) Orally disintegrating dosage forms and Versacloz® (clozapine) oral suspension Medication exceeding defined quantity limits Fanapt® (iloperidone), Invega® (paliperidone), Latuda® (lurasidone), Rexulti® (brexpiprazole), Saphris® (asenapine), and Vraylar® (cariprazine) for members of all ages and all quantities Abilify® (aripiprazole) and Seroquel XR® (quetiapine extended-release) for members 18 years of age and older and all quantities Background: Since 2003, MassHealth has determined that oral second-generation (atypical) antipsychotics (with the exception of clozapine and injectables) would require prior authorization for polypharmacy, defined as two or more second-generation (atypical) antipsychotics for greater than 60 days. Clozapine is excluded from the polypharmacy requirement because the guidelines for the treatment of schizophrenia recognize that combinations including clozapine have been reported. 1 In 2016, the adult antipsychotic polypharmacy criteria was updated and the PA restriction was expanded to include first-generation (typical), and second-generation (atypical) antipsychotics, excluding clozapine and injectable formulations. Orally disintegrating tablets (ODT) of aripiprazole, clozapine, olanzapine and risperidone, as well as Versacloz® (clozapine) oral suspension also require PA since there are more cost-effective alternatives available.

  • Old Drug New Use—Amoxapine and Its Metabolites As Potent Bacterial B-Glucuronidase Inhibitors for Alleviating Cancer Drug Toxicity
    Published OnlineFirst April 29, 2014; DOI: 10.1158/1078-0432.CCR-14-0395 Clinical Cancer Cancer Therapy: Preclinical Research Old Drug New Use—Amoxapine and Its Metabolites as Potent Bacterial b-Glucuronidase Inhibitors for Alleviating Cancer Drug Toxicity Ren Kong1, Timothy Liu1, Xiaoping Zhu1, Syed Ahmad3, Alfred L. Williams3, Alexandria T. Phan2, Hong Zhao1, John E. Scott3, Li-An Yeh3, and Stephen T.C. Wong1,2 Abstract Purpose: Irinotecan (CPT-11) induced diarrhea occurs frequently in patients with cancer and limits its usage. Bacteria b-glucuronidase (GUS) enzymes in intestines convert the nontoxic metabolite of CPT-11, SN-38G, to toxic SN-38, and finally lead to damage of intestinal epithelial cells and diarrhea. We previously reported amoxapine as a potent GUS inhibitor in vitro. To further understand the molecular mechanism of amoxapine and its potential for treatment of CPT-11–induced diarrhea, we studied the binding modes of amoxapine and its metabolites by docking and molecular dynamics simulation, and tested the in vivo efficacy on mice in combination with CPT-11. Experimental Design: The binding of amoxapine, its metabolites, 7-hydroxyamoxapine and 8-hydro- xyamoxapine, and a control drug loxapine with GUS was explored by computational protocols. The in vitro potencies of metabolites were measured by Escherichia coli GUS enzyme and cell-based assay. Low-dosage daily oral administration was designed to use along with CPT-11 to treat tumor-bearing mice. Results: Computational modeling results indicated that amoxapine and its metabolites bound in the active site of GUS and satisfied critical pharmacophore features: aromatic features near bacterial loop residue F3650 and hydrogen bond toward E413.

This tip sheet gives key details about the Antidepressant Medication Management (AMM) HEDIS measure and best practices. Major depression is one of the most common mental health conditions in the United States, and can result in suicide, the 10th leading cause of death each year.1,2 Although antidepressant medications are an effective treatment to help patients manage their condition, early discontinuation of antidepressants is common – approximately 30% of patients discontinue antidepressants within one month.3 Patients ages 18 and older who were newly treated with an antidepressant medication, had a diagnosis of major depression, and remained on an antidepressant medication treatment. Two rates are reported:4 Rate 1 The percentage of patients who remained on an antidepressant Measure Effective acute medication for at least 84 days phase treatment (12 weeks) Rate 2 The percentage of patients who Effective remained on an antidepressant continuation medication for at least 180 days phase treatment (6 months) • Patients who did not have an encounter with a diagnosis of major depression during a 121-day period: from 60 days Exclusions prior to the Index Prescription Start Date (IPSD), through the IPSD, and 60 days after the IPSD. • Patients who filled a prescription for an antidepressant medication 105 days before the IPSD.

  • II.3.3 Tricyclic and Tetracyclic Antidepressants by Akira Namera and Mikio Yashiki
    3.3 II.3.3 Tricyclic and tetracyclic antidepressants by Akira Namera and Mikio Yashiki Introduction Many of antidepressants exert their eff ects by inhibiting the reuptake of norepinephrine and serotonin and by accerelating the release of them at synaptic terminals of neurons in the brain. As characteristic structures of such drugs showing antidepressive eff ects, many of them have tricyclic or tetracyclic nuclei; this is the reason why they are called “ tricyclic antidepressants or tetracyclic antidepressants”. Th ere are many cases of suicides using the antidepressants; their massive intake sometimes causes death. About 10 kinds of tricyclic and tetracyclic antidepressants are now being used in Japan (> Figure 3.1); among them, amitriptyline is best distributed [1, 2]. Recently, the use of tetracyclic antidepressants is increasing, because of their mild side eff ects and their high eff ectiveness with their small doses; the increase of their use is causing the increase of their poisoning cases. Although carbamazepine does not belong to the antidepressant group, its structure is very similar to those of tricyclic antidepressants; therefore, the drug is also in- cluded in this chapter. GC/MS analysis Reagents and their preparation • Amitriptyline, carbamazepine, clomipramine, desipramine, imipramine, maprotiline, mi- anserin, nortriptyline and trimipramine can be purchased from Sigma (St. Louis, MO, USA); pure powder of the following drugs was donated by each manufacturer: amoxapine by Takeda Chem. Ind. Ltd., Osaka, Japan; dosulepin by Kaken Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd., Tokyo, Japan; lofepramine by Daiichi Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd., Tokyo, Japan; and setip- tiline by Mochida Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd., Tokyo, Japan. • A 20-g aliquot of sodium carbonate is dissolved in distilled water to prepare 100 mL solu- tion (20 %, w/v).
