Change From Baseline in Child Depression Rating Scale - Revised (CDRS-R): Total Score |
CDRS-R: clinician-rated interview-based scale (with both child and parent or guardian) to assess 17 distinct symptom areas to derive an index of depression severity. Discrepancies between informants' responses were resolved by using most impaired rating given by valid informant. Rated on a 7-point scale; range from 1 (no impairment) to 7 (indicates greater impairment). Total score calculated as sum of the 17 items (range 1 to 119); higher score indicates greater impairment. |

CDRS-R: clinician-rated interview-based scale (with both child and parent or guardian) to assess 17 distinct symptom areas to derive an index of depression severity. Discrepancies between informants' responses were resolved by using most impaired rating given by valid informant. Suicide Ideation (Item 13) detects changes in suicidality over time. Rated on a 7-point scale; range from 1 (no impairment) to 7 (indicates greater impairment). |

Change From Baseline in CNS Vital Signs Cognitive Test Battery (Includes Sedation Item): Subscales |
A computerized subject-administered test battery with subtests for verbal and visual memory, processing speed, nonverbal reasoning, executive functioning, working memory, and sustained attention. A computerized 7-point sedation item (0 [not sleepy] to 10 [very sleepy]) was completed prior to test battery. The Neurocognitive index score was derived from subtest scores per an algorithm. The index score and subtest scores assessed the subject's changes in cognition. Scores were rated as above average (score >109), average (90 to 109), below average (80 to 89), or well below average (70 to 79). |

First 3 items (Objective, Subjective, and Distress related to restlessness) rated on a 4-point scale with range 0 (no symptoms) to 3 (increased severity of symptoms). Item 4 Global Clinical Assessment of Akathisia rated on a 6-point scale range 0 (no symptoms) to 5 (increased severity of symptoms); higher score indicates increased severity.

Number of Subjects Per Response on the School Placement Questionnaire: School Situation |
School placement questionnaire: parent or legal guardian assessed questionnaire to determine whether the child is currently enrolled in school (or planned to be enrolled if on school holiday like summer break), whether attending regularly if enrolled, and how well the child is doing overall in school. Questions were modified from those used in the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) funded Treatment of Early Onset Schizophrenia Spectrum (TEOSS) study. Results determine whether subjects are currently attending school and qualitatively describe how well they are doing in school. |
