  • Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Change From the End of Phase A (Week 8 Visit) to the End of Phase B (Week 14 Visit) in Montgomery Asberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS) Total Score. [Week 8 to Week 14]

      The MADRS is utilized as the primary efficacy assessment of a participant's level of depression. The MADRS consists 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 is the sum of ratings for all 10 items. The possible Total scores are from 0 to 60. The MADRS Total Score was unevaluable if less than 8 of the 10 items are 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 to the first decimal place.

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Change From End of Phase A (Week 8 Visit) to End of Phase B (Week 14 Visit) in Mean Clinical Global Impression - Severity of Illness Scale (CGI-S) Score. [Week 8 to Week 14]

      CGI-S items are: 0 = not assessed, 1 = normal, not at all ill, 2 = borderline mentally ill, 3 = mildly ill, 4 = moderately ill, 5 = markedly ill, 6 = severely ill, 7 = among the most extremely ill patients. The score 0 (= not assessed) was set to missing. The CGI-S was therefore a 7-point scale from 1 through 7. CGI-S was assessed at screening, baseline and each subsequent visit from Week 1 through Week 14.

    2. Change From End of Phase A (Week 8 Visit) to End of Phase B (Week 14 Visit) in Mean Quality of Life, Enjoyment, and Satisfaction Questionnaire - Short Form (QLES-Q-SF) Subscale Score - the Overall General Subscore (Sum of First 14 Items). [Week 8 to Week 14]

      The Q-LES-Q is a self-report measure to enable physicians to obtain sensitive measures of the degree of enjoyment and satisfaction experienced by participants in various areas of daily functioning. Each item is scored on a five-point scale, with 1= Very Poor; 2=Poor; 3=Fair; 4=Good; 5=Very Good. Lower scores indicating less enjoyment or satisfaction with the activity. The Overall-General Subscore will be defined by summing the scores on all 14 items and expressing it as the percent of the maximum possible score. When expressing the total score as a percentage, if items are left blank the range will be modified to reflect the number of items scored. Raw score is sum of non-missing ratings from items 1 to 14. Minimum score is number of non-missing items. Maximum score is 5*(minimum score). Range is maximum score minus minimum score. Total score is 100*(Raw score minus minimum score)/ Range, rounded to nearest integer.

    3. Change From End of Phase A (Week 8 Visit) to End of Phase B (Week 14 Visit) in Sheehan Disability Scale (SDS) Mean Score (the Mean of 3 Individual Item Scores). [Week 8 to Week 14]

      The Sheehan Disability Scale (SDS) is a self-rated instrument used to measure the effect of the participant's symptoms on work/school, social life, and family/home responsibilities. For each of the three items, scores range from 0 through 10. The number most representative of how much each area was disrupted by symptoms is 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 will be calculated over the three item scores. All three item scores need to be available with the exception of the work/school item score when this item is not applicable.

    4. Change From End of Phase A (Week 8 Visit) in MADRS Total Score for Every Study Week Visit in Phase B Other Than the Week 14 Visit. [Week 8 to each of Week 9, 10, 11, 12 and 13.]

      The MADRS is utilized as the primary efficacy assessment of a patient's level of depression. The MADRS consists 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 is the sum of ratings for all 10 items. The possible Total scores are from 0 to 60. The MADRS Total Score was unevaluable if less than 8 of the 10 items are 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 to the first decimal place.

    5. Change From End of Phase A (Week 8 Visit) in Mean CGI-S Score for Every Study Week Visit in Phase B Other Than the Week 14 Visit. [Week 8 to each of Week 9, 10, 11, 12 and 13.]

      CGI-S items are: 0 = not assessed, 1 = normal, not at all ill, 2 = borderline mentally ill, 3 = mildly ill, 4 = moderately ill, 5 = markedly ill, 6 = severely ill, 7 = among the most extremely ill patients. The score 0 (= not assessed) was set to missing. The CGI-S was therefore a 7-point scale from 1 through 7. CGI-S was assessed at screening, baseline and each subsequent visit from Week 1 through Week 14.

    6. Change From End of Phase A (Week 8 Visit) to End of Phase B (Week 14 Visit) in Mean Q-LES-Q-SF Item 15 Score (Satisfaction With Medication). [Week 8 to Week 14]

      The Q-LES-Q (Short Form) is a self-report measure designed to enable physicians to easily obtain sensitive measures of the degree of enjoyment and satisfaction experienced by participants in various areas of daily functioning. Each item is scored on a five-point scale, with 1= Very Poor; 2=Poor; 3=Fair; 4=Good; 5=Very Good. Lower scores indicating less enjoyment or satisfaction with the activity. According to the scoring system suggested for this questionnaire, item 15 (Satisfaction with Medication) will yield a separate subscore.

    7. Change From End of Phase A (Week 8 Visit) to End of Phase B (Week 14 Visit) in Mean Q-LES-Q-SF Item 16 Score (Overall Life Satisfaction). [Week 8 to Week 14]

      The Q-LES-Q (Short Form) is a self-report measure designed to enable physicians to easily obtain sensitive measures of the degree of enjoyment and satisfaction experienced by participants in various areas of daily functioning. Each item is scored on a five-point scale, with 1= Very Poor; 2=Poor; 3=Fair; 4=Good; 5=Very Good. Lower scores indicating less enjoyment or satisfaction with the activity. According to the scoring system suggested for this questionnaire, item 16 (Overall Life Satisfaction) will yield a separate subscore.

    8. 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. [Week 8 to each of Week 9, 10, 11, 12, 13 and 14]

      The IDS-SR is a 30-item self-report measure used 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. The IDS-SR Total Score is the sum of ratings of 28 item scores. The possible IDS-SR Total Score ranges from 0 to 84. The IDS-SR Total Score was un-evaluable if less than 23 of the 28 items are recorded. If the number of items was at least 23 and at most 27, the IDS-SR Total Score will be the mean of the recorded items multiplied by 28 and then rounded to the first decimal place.

    9. Change From End of Phase A (Week 8 Visit) to End of Phase B (Week 14 Visit) in Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HAM-D17) Score. [Week 8 to Week 14]

      The HAM-D17 is utilized as a secondary assessment of a participant's level of depression. The HAM-D (17-Item) consists of 17 items. Eight items are rated on a 0 to 2 scale (items 4, 5, 6, 12, 13, 14, 16 and 17), while nine items (items 1, 2, 3, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, and 15) are rated on a 0 to 4 scale (twice the weight of the other items). For all of these items, 0 is the "best" rating and the highest score (2 or 4) is the "worst" rating. The possible total scores are from 0 to 52.

    10. Clinical Global Impression-Improvement Scale (CGI-I) Score at Each Study Week Visit in Phase B. [Week 8 to each of Week 9, 10, 11, 12, 13 and 14.]

      CGI-I items are: 0 = not assessed, 1 = very much improved, 2 = much improved, 3 = minimally improved, 4 = no change, 5 = minimally worse, 6 = much worse, 7 = very much worse. The score of 0 (= not assessed) will be set to missing. The CGI-I is therefore a 7-point scale from 1 through 7. CGI-I was assessed at each visit in Phase B, and improvement is judged with respect to the participant's condition at baseline. CGI-I was also assessed at each visit in Phase B, but in that phase improvement is judged with respect to the partcipant's condition at the end of Phase A.

    11. Percentage of Participants With MADRS Response From End of Phase A (Week 8 Visit). [Week 8 to each of Week 9, 10, 11, 12, 13 and 14.]

      A MADRS response was defined as >/= 50% reduction in MADRS Total Score from end of Phase A (Week 8 visit).

    12. Percentage of Participants With MADRS Remission From End of Phase A (Week 8 Visit). [Week 8 to each of Week 9, 10, 11, 12, 13 and 14.]

      A MADRS remission was defined as MADRS Total Score </= 10 and >/= 50% reduction in MADRS Total Score from end of Phase A (Week 8 visit).

    13. Percentage of Participants With CGI-I Response From End of Phase A (Week 8 Visit). [Week 9, 10, 11, 12, 13 and 14.]

      CGI-I response is defined as CGI-I of 1 [very much improved] or 2 [much improved].

    Study Results

    Participant Flow

    Recruitment Details This study was a Phase 2, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study of the safety and efficacy of OPC-34712 as adjunctive therapy in the treatment of participants with major depressive disorder. This study was conducted in the United States at 50 study centers.
    Pre-assignment Detail The study consisted of a 28-day Screening period, an 8-Week single-blind placebo + Antidepressant therapy (ADT) prospective Phase A. A 6-week double-blind Randomization Phase (Phase B) or single-blind Phase A+ for those participants who did not meet criteria for randomization and a Follow-up of 30 (+2) days after the last dose of study medication.
    Arm/Group Title OPC-34712 0.15 mg Fixed Dose OPC-34712 0.5 ± 0.25 mg Low Dose OPC-34712 1.5 ± 0.5 mg High Dose Placebo Participants in Phase A Participants in Phase A+
    Arm/Group Description The participants received 0.15 mg/day OPC-34712 as an adjunctive therapy along with the physician assigned ADT from Week 9 to Week 14/ Early Termination. The participants received 0.50 mg OPC-34712, then 0.50 ± 0.25 mg/day as an adjunctive therapy along with the physician assigned ADT from Week 9 to Week 14/ Early Termination. The participants received 1.5 mg OPC-34712, then 1.5 ± 0.50 mg/day as an adjunctive therapy along with the physician assigned ADT from Week 9 to Week 14/ Early Termination. The participants received double-blind placebo as an adjunctive therapy along with the physician assigned ADT from Week 9 to Week 14/ Early Termination. Participants entered Phase A (single-blind prospective treatment) during which participants had received single-blind placebo plus an open-label commercially available ADT for 8 weeks at maximally tolerated doses. Based on the response at Week 8 (in Phase A), participants were either randomized to Phase B or continued single-blind treatment in Phase A+. Participants who met the criteria for a response at Week 8 were not to be randomized into Phase B but continued to receive single-blind placebo plus the maximum tolerated dose of ADT from Week 8 for an additional 6 weeks in Phase A+.

    2. Secondary Outcome
    Title Change From End of Phase A (Week 8 Visit) to End of Phase B (Week 14 Visit) in Mean Clinical Global Impression - Severity of Illness Scale (CGI-S) Score.
    Description CGI-S items are: 0 = not assessed, 1 = normal, not at all ill, 2 = borderline mentally ill, 3 = mildly ill, 4 = moderately ill, 5 = markedly ill, 6 = severely ill, 7 = among the most extremely ill patients. The score 0 (= not assessed) was set to missing. The CGI-S was therefore a 7-point scale from 1 through 7. CGI-S was assessed at screening, baseline and each subsequent visit from Week 1 through Week 14.

    3. Secondary Outcome
    Title Change From End of Phase A (Week 8 Visit) to End of Phase B (Week 14 Visit) in Mean Quality of Life, Enjoyment, and Satisfaction Questionnaire - Short Form (QLES-Q-SF) Subscale Score - the Overall General Subscore (Sum of First 14 Items).
    Description The Q-LES-Q is a self-report measure to enable physicians to obtain sensitive measures of the degree of enjoyment and satisfaction experienced by participants in various areas of daily functioning. Each item is scored on a five-point scale, with 1= Very Poor; 2=Poor; 3=Fair; 4=Good; 5=Very Good. Lower scores indicating less enjoyment or satisfaction with the activity. The Overall-General Subscore will be defined by summing the scores on all 14 items and expressing it as the percent of the maximum possible score. When expressing the total score as a percentage, if items are left blank the range will be modified to reflect the number of items scored. Raw score is sum of non-missing ratings from items 1 to 14. Minimum score is number of non-missing items. Maximum score is 5*(minimum score). Range is maximum score minus minimum score. Total score is 100*(Raw score minus minimum score)/ Range, rounded to nearest integer.

    4. Secondary Outcome
    Title Change From End of Phase A (Week 8 Visit) to End of Phase B (Week 14 Visit) in Sheehan Disability Scale (SDS) Mean Score (the Mean of 3 Individual Item Scores).
    Description The Sheehan Disability Scale (SDS) is a self-rated instrument used to measure the effect of the participant's symptoms on work/school, social life, and family/home responsibilities. For each of the three items, scores range from 0 through 10. The number most representative of how much each area was disrupted by symptoms is 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 will be calculated over the three item scores. All three item scores need to be available with the exception of the work/school item score when this item is not applicable.

    Title Change From End of Phase A (Week 8 Visit) to End of Phase B (Week 14 Visit) in Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HAM-D17) Score.
    Description The HAM-D17 is utilized as a secondary assessment of a participant's level of depression. The HAM-D (17-Item) consists of 17 items. Eight items are rated on a 0 to 2 scale (items 4, 5, 6, 12, 13, 14, 16 and 17), while nine items (items 1, 2, 3, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, and 15) are rated on a 0 to 4 scale (twice the weight of the other items). For all of these items, 0 is the "best" rating and the highest score (2 or 4) is the "worst" rating. The possible total scores are from 0 to 52.

    11. Secondary Outcome
    Title Clinical Global Impression-Improvement Scale (CGI-I) Score at Each Study Week Visit in Phase B.
    Description CGI-I items are: 0 = not assessed, 1 = very much improved, 2 = much improved, 3 = minimally improved, 4 = no change, 5 = minimally worse, 6 = much worse, 7 = very much worse. The score of 0 (= not assessed) will be set to missing. The CGI-I is therefore a 7-point scale from 1 through 7. CGI-I was assessed at each visit in Phase B, and improvement is judged with respect to the participant's condition at baseline. CGI-I was also assessed at each visit in Phase B, but in that phase improvement is judged with respect to the partcipant's condition at the end of Phase A.
    Time Frame Week 8 to each of Week 9, 10, 11, 12, 13 and 14.
