项目摘要

Project Summary: Mental disorders cause immense disability, accounting for 183.9 million disability-adjusted life-years world- wide. Among currently available pharmacological and behavioral interventions, no single therapy is universally ef- fective. Moreover, treatment responses are far from adequate across mental disorders. As such, there is an urgent need to optimize treatment responses. Various factors appear to be associated with positive treatment responses for mental disorders, thus providing evidence for improving response rate by incorporating patient-speciﬁc charac- teristics in treatment decisions in an effort to achieve precision psychiatry. However, existing methods to incorpo- rate patient-speciﬁc characteristics do not adequately address the unique challenges facing precision psychiatry. To point, treatment decision making for mental disorders is inevitably confronted by extensive diagnostic hetero- geneity, substantial between-patient variation in biological and clinical manifestations of disease, and mismatch between diagnostic categorization and the underlying pathophysiology. To address these emerging challenges, this proposal aims to develop novel machine learning and statistical inference methods to build individualized treat- ment rules to account for the extensive heterogeneity and between-patient variability and integrate evidence from multi-domain brain and behavioral data across several disorders. Speciﬁcally, we aim to: (1) learn optimal latent representation of patients through a probabilistic generative model that has theoretical support under the National Institute of Mental Health Strategic Plan on Research Domain Criteria (RDoC); (2) incorporate prior optimal treat- ment information from the non-randomized phase of clinical trials through targeted transfer learning; (3) synthesize individualized treatment decision rules learned from multiple studies; and (4) provide rigorous statistical inference of ﬁtted decision rules. Following the RDoC call for centering mental health research around latent constructs shared across disorders, the methods developed here will be applied to a range of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of patients with major depressive disorder and other co-morbid disorders, including multiple high-quality RCTs with multi-modality data (e.g., symptoms, behavioral tests, psychosocial measures, brain measures). This strategy will allow for examination of treatment strategies for constructs shared across disorders and thus will in- crease generalizability. In sum, this research will use machine learning approaches and statistical inference in an effort to better leverage the complex interplay between biomarkers and clinical manifestations in the context of precision psychiatry, with the goal of selecting the best treatments for patients with mental disorders.

项目概要：精神障碍会导致巨大的残疾，造成全世界 1.839 亿残疾调整生命年—— 在目前可用的药物和行为干预措施中，没有一种单一疗法是普遍有效的。此外，针对精神障碍的治疗效果还远远不够，因此，迫切需要采取有效的治疗措施。需要优化治疗反应，各种因素似乎与积极的治疗反应有关。对于精神障碍，从而为通过结合患者的具体特征来提高反应率提供了证据为了实现精确的精神病学，现有的方法无法纳入治疗决策。患者的具体特征并不能充分解决精准精神病学面临的独特挑战。值得注意的是，精神障碍的治疗决策最终面临着广泛的诊断异质性基因性、患者之间疾病生物学和临床表现的巨大差异以及不匹配为了应对这些新出现的挑战，该提案旨在开发新颖的机器学习和统计推断方法来建立个性化治疗治疗规则来解释广泛的异质性和患者之间的变异性，并整合来自跨多种疾病的多域大脑和行为数据。具体来说，我们的目标是：（1）学习最佳潜在通过概率生成模型来代表患者，该模型得到了国家医学中心的理论支持心理健康研究所研究领域标准战略计划 (RDoC) (2) 纳入先前的最佳治疗（3）通过有针对性的迁移学习来综合临床试验非随机阶段的信息；从多项研究中学到的个体化治疗决策规则；（4）提供严格的统计推论；遵循 RDoC 的呼吁，将心理健康研究集中在潜在的结构上。跨疾病共享，这里开发的方法将应用于一系列随机对照试验（随机对照试验）患有重度抑郁症和其他共病疾病的患者，包括多种高质量的具有多模态数据的随机对照试验（例如症状、行为测试、社会心理测量、大脑测量）。战略将允许检查跨疾病共享结构的治疗策略，因此将在- 总之，本研究将使用机器学习方法和统计推断。努力更好地利用生物标志物和临床表现之间复杂的相互作用精准精神病学，旨在为精神障碍患者选择最佳治疗方法。
