Study Summary

This study will examine how the use of antidepressant, physical therapy, and combination of both affects pain, function, and depression outcomes in chronic low back pain patients.

Primary Outcome

To create the "composite responder" measure, Pain+ function changes will be 1 meaure, and the response rate to depression will be the 2nd component, which simplifies the assessment of multi-domain responses. We will determine the "composite responder" rate of multimodal vs. single-modal treatment primarily, and then between each arm secondarily, along with the subcomponents. The "composite responder" measure will be the number and percentage of participants meeting the measure in each arm in Pha
