In mental health science, there has been frustratingly slow process in understanding and developing new treatments for anxiety, depression and psychosis, as well as in predicting which treatments will work for whom and in what contexts. To intervene early and deliver optimal and individualised care to patients, we need to develop safe and effective interventions that target specific symptoms and provide reliable predictions of clinical trajectories. Better use of existing evidence and digital shared decision-making tools are one way to improve efficiency in clinical care towards these ends. The PETRUSHKA trial aims to personalise antidepressant treatment in the real world settings, using both statistical and machine learning approaches and combining evidence synthesis with patients’ preferences.
