Increased inflammatory biomarkers predict antidepressant non-response, and inflammatory cytokines can sabotage and circumvent mechanisms of action of conventional antidepressant therapy. To determine whether inhibition of the inflammatory cytokine tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha reduces depressive symptoms in patients with treatment resistant depression (TRD) and whether increased baseline plasma inflammatory biomarkers including high sensitivity c-reactive protein (hs-CRP), TNF-alpha and its soluble receptors predict treatment response. Double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized clinical trial. Outpatient infusion center, Emory University. Sixty medically-stable outpatients with major depression on a consistent antidepressant regimen or medication-free (n=23) for ≥4 weeks and moderate treatment resistance as determined by the Massachusetts General Hospital Staging method. Three infusions of the TNF-alpha antagonist infliximab (5mg/kg)(n=30) or placebo (n=30) at baseline and weeks 2 and 6 of a 12-week trial. 17-item Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HAM-D-17). No overall difference in change of HAM-D-17 scores between treatment groups across time was found. However, there was a significant interaction between treatment, time and log baseline hs-CRP (p=0.01), with change in HAM-D-17 scores (Baseline to Week 12) favoring infliximab-treated patients at a baseline hs-CRP>5mg/L and placebo-treated patients at a baseline hs-CRP≤5mg/L. Exploratory analyses focusing on patients with a baseline hs-CRP>5mg/L revealed a treatment response (≥50% reduction in HAM-D-17 at any point during treatment) of 62% (8/13) in the infliximab group versus 33% (3/9) in placebo-treated patients (p=0.19). Baseline concentrations of TNF-alpha and its soluble receptors were significantly higher in infliximab-treated responders versus non-responders (p<0.05), and infliximab-treated responders exhibited significantly greater decreases in hs-CRP from Baseline to Week 12 compared to placebo-treated responders (p<0.01). Drop-outs and adverse events were limited and did not differ between groups. This proof-of-concept study suggests that TNF-alpha antagonism does not have generalized efficacy in TRD, but may improve depressive symptoms in patients with high baseline inflammatory biomarkers.
