Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Change From Baseline in the 17-item HAM-D Total Score at Day 15

    The 17-item HAM-D scale is used to assess the severity of depression. It is comprised of individual ratings related to the following symptoms: depressed mood, feelings of guilt, suicide, insomnia, work and activities, retardation, agitation, anxiety, somatic symptoms, genital symptoms, hypochondriasis, loss of weight, and insight. Individual items are scored on either a 3-point (0 to 2) or a 5-point scale (0 to 4), with 0=none/absent and 4=most severe. The total HAM-D score is the sum of individual items, ranging from 0 to 52; where a higher score indicates more depression. A negative change indicates improvement. A mixed Model for Repeated Measures (MMRM)was used for the analysis.

Secondary Outcomes (10)

  • Participant has a Hamilton Rating Scale for Depression (HAM-D) total score ≥24 at screening and Day 1 (prior to dosing).
  • Participants taking antidepressants must have been taking these medications at the same dose for at least 60 days prior to Day 1. Participants who have stopped taking antidepressants within 60 days must have stopped for longer than 5 half-lives of the antidepressant prior to Day 1. Participants receiving psychotherapy must have been receiving therapy on a regular schedule for at least 60 days prior to Day 1.
  • Participant is willing to delay start of other antidepressant or antianxiety medications and any new pharmacotherapy regimens, including as-needed benzodiazepine anxiolytics and sleep aids, until after completion of the Day 42 visit.

You may not qualify if:

  • Participant is currently at significant risk of suicide, as judged by the Investigator, or has attempted suicide associated with the current episode of MDD.
  • Participant has onset of the current depressive episode during pregnancy or 4 weeks postpartum, or the participant has presented for screening during the 6-month postpartum period.
  • Participant has a body mass index (BMI) ≤18 or ≥45 kg/m\^2 at Screening, which is subject to a broader evaluation of medical comorbidities.
  • Participant has treatment-resistant depression, defined as persistent depressive symptoms despite treatment with adequate doses of antidepressants within the current major depressive episode (excluding antipsychotics) from two different classes for at least 4 weeks of treatment.
  • Participant has a medical history of seizures, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, and/or schizoaffective disorder.
