Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Change From Baseline in the HAMD-17 Total Score at Day 3
The 17-item HAM-D scale is used to assess the severity of depression. It is comprised of individual ratings related to 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 3-point (0=none to 2=severe) or 5-point scale (0=none/absent to 4=most severe). Total score is the sum of individual items, ranging from 0 (not depressed) to 52 (severely depressed); where a higher score indicates more depression. A negative change from baseline indicated improvement. Least Squares (LS) mean was estimated using mixed effects model for repeated measures (MMRM) analysis.

Study Arms (2)
Placebo + Assigned ADT
ACTIVE COMPARATORParticipants received SAGE-217-matching placebo capsules, orally, once daily along with an assigned ADT (sertraline, escitalopram, citalopram, duloxetine, or desvenlafaxine administered per labeled prescribing information), daily, from Day 1 through 14, followed by the same ADT, per labeled prescribing information, daily, up to Day 42.
SAGE-217 + Assigned ADT
EXPERIMENTALParticipants received SAGE-217, 50 milligrams (mg), orally, once daily along with an assigned ADT (sertraline, escitalopram, citalopram, duloxetine, or desvenlafaxine administered per labeled prescribing information), daily from Day 1 through 14, followed by the same ADT, per labeled prescribing information, daily, up to Day 42.

- Diagnosis of MDD as diagnosed by Structured Clinical Interview for Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fifth Edition Clinical Trials Version (SCID-5-CT), with symptoms that have been present for at least a 4-week period
- item Hamilton Rating Scale for Depression (HAM-D-17) total score of ≥24 at Screening and Day 1

- Participant is willing, able, and eligible to take at least 1 of the 5 ADTs specified in the protocol (an eligible ADT is an ADT that has not been taken during the current depressive episode and for which the participant has no contraindications; further, a participant is not eligible for citalopram if escitalopram has been taken during the current depressive episode, and vice versa)
You may not qualify if:
- Has attempted suicide associated with the current episode of MDD
- Participant had 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 treatment-resistant depression
- History of bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, and/or schizoaffective disorder
- Known allergy to SAGE-217, allopregnanolone, or related compounds
- Has taken antidepressants within 30 days prior to Day 1, and/or has taken fluoxetine within 60 days prior to Day 1
