Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Change From Baseline on the Children's Depression Rating Scale-Revised (CDRS-R) Total Score

    Change from baseline on the Children's Depression Rating Scale-Revised (CDRS-R) total score. CDRS-R Total score measures the presence and severity of depression in children. The scale consists of 17 items scored on a 1-to-5- or 1-to-7-point scale. A rating of 1 indicates normal functioning and a higher number indicates a greater degree of depression. The total sum of scores range from 17 to 113. In general, scores below 20 indicate an absence of depression, scores of 20 to 30 indicate borderline depression, scores of 40 to 60 indicate moderate depression, and scores greater than 60 indicate severe depression. Least squares (LS) mean was calculated using a mixed-effects model repeated measures (MMRM) approach including treatment group, observation time-points, and interaction between treatment group and observation time-points as fixed effects, and baseline CDRS-R total score and age as covariates.

    Baseline, Week 6

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • Percentage of Participants Whose Children's Depression Rating Scale-Revised (CDRS-R) Total Score Decreased by More Than 30% From Baseline

    Baseline, Week 6

  • Percentage of Participants Whose CDRS-R Total Score Decreased by More Than 50% From Baseline

    Baseline, Week 6

  • Percentage of Participants With Total Children's Depression Rating Scale-Revised (CDRS-R) Score ≤ 28
