Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Mean Change From the End of Phase A (Week 8 Visit) to Phase B (Week 14 Visit) in the Montgomery-Asberg Depression Rating Scale for the Efficacy Sample Set [Baseline and Week 14]

    The MADRS was utilized as the primary efficacy assessment of a participant's level of depression. The MADRS consisted of 10 items, all rated on a 0 to 6 scale with 0 being the "best" rating and 6 being the "worst" rating. The MADRS total score were to be unevaluable if less than 8 of the 10 items were recorded. If 8 or 9 of the 10 items were recorded, the MADRS total score was the mean of the recorded items multiplied by 10 and then rounded of to the first decimal place. The MADRS Total Score is the sum of ratings for all 10 items. The possible total scores are from 0 to 60, with higher values indicating worse outcome.

  2. Mean Change in MADRS Total Score From Baseline End of Week 8 to Week 14 for the Efficacy Sample Per Final Protocol [Baseline and Week 14]

If 8 or 9 of the 10 items were recorded, the MADRS total score was the mean of the recorded items multiplied by 10 and then rounded of to the first decimal place. The MADRS Total Score is the sum of ratings for all 10 items. The possible total scores are from 0 to 60, with higher values indicating worse outcome.

5. Secondary Outcome
Title Mean Change From End of Phase A (Week 8 Visit) to End of Phase B (Week 14 Visit) in Sheehan Disability Scale (SDS) Mean Scores for the Efficacy Sample Set
Description The SDS was a self-rated instrument used to measure the effect of the participants symptoms on work/school, social life, and family/home responsibilities. For each of the three items, scores ranged from 0 through 10. The number most representative of how much each area was disrupted by symptoms was marked along the line from 0= not at all to 10= extremely. For the work/school item, no response was to be entered if the participant did not work or go to school for reasons unrelated to the disorder and a response therefore not being applicable. The Mean SDS score were calculated over the three item scores. All three item scores were needed to be available with the exception of the work/school item score when this item was not applicable.

6. Secondary Outcome
Title Mean Change From End of Phase A (Week 8 Visit) to End of Phase B (Week 14 Visit) in SDS Mean Scores for the Efficacy Sample Per Final Protocol
Description The SDS was a self-rated instrument used to measure the effect of the participants symptoms on work/school, social life, and family/home responsibilities. For each of the three items, scores ranged from 0 through 10. The number most representative of how much each area was disrupted by symptoms was marked along the line from 0= not at all, to 10= extremely. For the work/school item, no response was to be entered if the participant did not work or go to school for reasons unrelated to the disorder and a response therefore not being applicable. The Mean SDS score were calculated over the three item scores. All three item scores were needed to be available with the exception of the work/school item score when this item was not applicable.

11. Secondary Outcome
Title Mean Change From End of Phase A (Week 8 Visit) for Every Study Week Visit in Phase B in Inventory of Depressive Symptomatology (Self-Report) IDS-SR Total Score for the Efficacy Sample Set
Description IDS-SR was a 30-item self-report measured to assess core diagnostic depressive symptoms and atypical and melancholic symptom features of major depressive disorders. The IDS-SR consists of 30 items, all rated on a 0 to 3 scale with 0 being the "best" rating and 3 being the "worst" rating. Besides item 9, two sub-items 9A and 9B exist, with possible scores of 1, 2 or 3 for item 9A, and 0 or 1 for item 9B. The scores for these two sub-items were not included in the calculation of the total score. The IDS-SR Total Score was the sum of ratings of 28 item scores. The possible IDSSR Total Score ranged from 0 to 84. The IDS-SR Total Score was un-evaluable if less than 23 of the 28 items were recorded. If the number of items recorded was at least 23 and at most 27, the IDS-SR Total Score was the mean of the recorded items multiplied by 28, and was then rounded off to the first decimal place.
Time Frame Weeks 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, and 14

12. Secondary Outcome
Title Mean Change From End of Phase A (Week 8 Visit) for Every Study Week Visit in Phase B in IDS-SR Total Score for the Efficacy Sample Per Final Protocol
Description The IDS-SR was a 30-item self-report measured to assess core diagnostic depressive symptoms as well as atypical and melancholic symptom features of major depressive disorders. The IDS-SR consists of 30 items, all rated on a 0 to 3 scale with 0 being the "best" rating and 3 being the "worst" rating. Besides item 9, two sub-items 9A and 9B exist, with possible scores of 1, 2 or 3 for item 9A, and 0 or 1 for item 9B. The scores for these two sub-items were not included in the calculation of the total score. The IDSSR Total Score was the sum of ratings of 28 item scores. The possible IDSSR Total Score ranged from 0 to 84. The IDS-SR Total Score was un-evaluable if less than 23 of the 28 items were recorded. If the number of items recorded was at least 23 and at most 27, the IDS-SR Total Score was the mean of the recorded items multiplied by 28, and was then rounded off to the first decimal place.

19. Secondary Outcome
Title Percentage of Participants With a MADRS Response During Phase B Relative to the End of Phase A (Week 8 Visit) for the Efficacy Sample Set
Description MADRS response was defined as >=50 percent reduction in MADRS Total Score from end of Phase A (Week 8). The MADRS was utilized as an efficacy assessment of a participant's level of depression. The MADRS consisted of 10 items, all rated on a 0 to 6 scale with 0 being the "best" rating and 6 being the "worst" rating. The MADRS total score were to be unevaluable if less than 8 of the 10 items were recorded. If 8 or 9 of the 10 items were recorded, the MADRS total score was the mean of the recorded items multiplied by 10 and then rounded of to the first decimal place. The MADRS Total Score is the sum of ratings for all 10 items. The possible total scores are from 0 to 60, with higher values indicating worse outcome.
Time Frame Weeks 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, and 14

Description MADRS response was defined as >=50 percent reduction in MADRS Total Score from end of Phase A (Week 8). The MADRS was utilized as an efficacy assessment of a participant's level of depression. The MADRS consisted of 10 items, all rated on a 0 to 6 scale with 0 being the "best" rating and 6 being the "worst" rating. The MADRS total score were to be unevaluable if less than 8 of the 10 items were recorded. If 8 or 9 of the 10 items were recorded, the MADRS total score was the mean of the recorded items multiplied by 10 and then rounded of to the first decimal place. The MADRS Total Score is the sum of ratings for all 10 items. The possible total scores are from 0 to 60, with higher values indicating worse outcome.

Adverse Events

Time Frame AEs were captured from randomization to double-blind treatment at Week 8 to Follow-up 30 (+ 2) days after last dose of study medication.
Adverse Event Reporting Description Safety sample comprised of randomized participants in Phase B who received at least one dose of double-blind trial medication. Participants were excluded only if there was evidence that the participant did not take trial medication. If a participant was dispensed trial medication and is lost to follow-up that participant was considered exposed.
