Outcome

Type Measure Description Time frame Safety issue
Primary Change From Baseline in Montgomery-Asberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS) Total Score at Week 6 MADRS is a clinician-rated assessment of the subject's level of depression. The measure contains 10 items that measure apparent and reported sadness, inner tension, reduced sleep and appetite, difficulty concentrating, lassitude, inability to feel, and pessimistic and suicidal thoughts, each ranging from 0 to 6. The MADRS total score ranges from 0 to 60, with higher scores indicating increased depressive symptoms 6 Weeks
Secondary Change From Baseline in Global Severity Assessed by the Clinical Global Impressions - Severity: Bipolar Version (CGI-BP-S) Score (Depression) at Week 6 Clinical Global Impressions - Severity: Bipolar Version (CGI-BP-S) score (depression) is a single value, clinician-rated assessment of illness severity, and 7-point scale with range from 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 subjects. A higher score is associated with greater illness severity. 6 Weeks
