Change from Baseline in Montgomery-Asberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS) Total Score up to Week 6 | ||||||||||||
End point description |
MADRS was a clinician-rated scale designed to measure depression severity and detect changes due to antidepressant (AD) treatment. MADRS evaluated reported sadness, apparent sadness, inner tension, reduced sleep, reduced appetite, concentration difficulties, lassitude, inability to feel, pessimistic thoughts, and suicidal thoughts. The scale consisted 10 items, each was scored from 0 (item not present or normal) to 6 (severe or continuous presence of symptoms), with higher score indicating more severe condition. MADRS total score was the sum of scores from individual question items and it ranged from 0 to 60, with higher scores indicated more severe conditions. Negative change in MADRS total score indicated improvement. Full analysis set (FAS) included all randomised subjects who received at least 1 dose of study intervention and had both baseline and at least 1 postbaseline MADRS measurement.

Change from Baseline in Snaith-Hamilton Pleasure Scale (SHAPS) Total Score up to Week 6 | ||||||||||||
End point description |
Change from baseline in SHAPS total score up to Week 6 were reported. The SHAPS was a reliable, valid, and unidimensional instrument used to assess hedonic capacity in adults with Major Depressive Disorder (MDD). It is a 14-item, self-report tool with a completion time below 5 minutes. Each of the items had a set of 4 response categories: 1 = definitely agree/strongly agree, 2 = agree, 3 = disagree, and 4 = strongly disagree. The SHAPS total score was the sum of the 14 item scores, which ranged from 14 to 56. A higher SHAPS total score indicated higher levels of current anhedonia. Negative changes in the SHAPS total score indicated improvement. FAS included all randomised subjects who received at least 1 dose of study intervention and had both baseline and at least 1 postbaseline MADRS measurement. Here, 'N' (subjects analysed) signifies number of subjects evaluable for this endpoint.

End point description |
C-SSRS is a clinician-rated instrument that reports severity of both SI and SB. SI categories : 1 (wish to be dead), 2 (nonspecific active suicidal thoughts), 3 (active SI with any methods [not plan] without intent to act), 4 (active SI with some intent to act, without specific plan), and 5 (active SI with specific plan and intent). SB categories: 6 (preparatory acts or behavior), 7 (aborted attempt), 8 (interrupted attempt), 9 (actual attempt), and 10 (suicide). An additional category for non-suicide: non-suicidal self-injurious behavior. SI/SB was indicated by "yes" answer to any listed categories. Score of 0 (no SI/SB) was assigned. Maximum score of 1 to 10 was assigned if SI/SB was present. Scoring was grouped into 3 categories: No SI or behavior (0), SI (score 1 to 5), and SB (score 6 to 10), with higher scores indicating more severe ideation/behavior. Safety set was used.

Change from baseline in CGI-S score were reported. The CGI-S provides an overall clinician-determined summary measure of the severity of the subject's illness that takes into account all available information, including knowledge of the subject's history, psychosocial circumstances, symptoms, behavior, and the impact of the symptoms on the subject's ability to function. The CGI-S is a 7-point global assessment scale that measures the clinician's impression of the severity of mental illness exhibited by a subject, and rated on a scale of 1 to 7: 1=normal (not at all ill); 2=borderline mentally ill; 3=mildly ill; 4=moderately ill; 5=markedly ill; 6=severely ill; and 7=among the most extremely ill subjects. Higher scores indicate worsening. Negative change in CGI-S score indicate improvement. Safety analysis set included all randomised subjects who took at least 1 dose of study intervention. Here, 'N' (subjects analysed) signifies number of subjects evaluable for this endpoint.

Change from Baseline in Patient Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) Score - Ability to Participate in Social Roles and Activities (APS) T-Scores | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
End point description |
Change from baseline in PROMIS score - ability to participate in social roles and activities T-Scores were reported. The PROMIS - APS item bank assesses the perceived ability to perform one’s usual social roles and activities. The item bank did not use a time frame (for example, over the past seven days) when assessing the APS. The Short Form 4a included 4 items that represent this concept. Each question had 5 response options ranging in value from 1 to 5 with higher scores indicating better social function. Total raw score for short form was calculated by summing the values of the response to each question, so for the 4-item form, the lowest possible raw score was 4; the highest possible raw score was 20. The total raw score was converted to a T score with a mean of 50 and a standard deviation of 10. FAS was used. Here, 'n' (number analysed) is defined as subjects analysed at specified categories.

Change from Baseline in MADRS Total Score up to Week 6 (Subgroup of Subjects with Messenger Ribonucleic Acid [mRNA] Transcript Levels) | ||||||||||||
End point description |
Subgroup included subjects with mRNA transcript levels (exceeded medium level for both P2RX7 and IL-1-beta). MADRS was clinician-rated scale designed to measure depression severity and detect changes due to AD treatment. MADRS evaluated reported sadness, apparent sadness, inner tension, reduced sleep, reduced appetite, concentration difficulties, lassitude, inability to feel, pessimistic thoughts, and suicidal thoughts. Scale consist 10 items, each was scored from 0 (item not present or normal) to 6 (severe or continuous presence of symptoms); higher score indicated more severe condition. MADRS total score was sum of scores from individual question items; ranged: 0-60; higher scores indicated more severe conditions. Negative change in MADRS total score indicated improvement. FAS was used. 99999 refer to mean and standard deviation (SD) were not calculable because planned analysis was terminated as reliable data could not be produced using single step polymerase chain reaction method.

Date |
Amendment |
||
01 Feb 2022 |
The rational for this amendment was to remove the safety, tolerability, and efficacy preview (STEP) interview, Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) - social isolation and Patient and Global Impression of Severity for Depression(PGI-S), to add clarification on the antidepressant treatment history-short form (ATHF-SF), to replace the DARS with the Snaith-Hamilton Pleasure Scale (SHAPS), to replace the SMDDS with the Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9), and the use of the AiCure application, to add the digital health assessment by the AiCure app, and to add the urine drug screen (UDS) to every visit. |
||
04 Jul 2022 |
The rational for this amendment was to add clarifications on timing of self-rating assessments, downloading of apps, prohibited concomitant therapy. To add recommendations on order of events and when the second pharmacogenomics sample could be taken. To add Canada as a new country where TruCulture sampling would be performed, provided flexibility on the country list where TruCulture assay or determination of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) inflammatory profiles could be performed and to remove Russia where we were provisioning phones to all subjects. |
||
27 Jul 2022 |
The rational for this amendment was to change the definition of a treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAE) on regulatory request. |
||
25 Jan 2023 |
The rational for this amendment was to allow for operational efficiency the prescreening visit would be removed from the study and the prescreening assessment, a blood sample for P2RX7 genotyping, would be part of the screening phase. |
||
18 Aug 2023 |
The rational for this amendment was Antipsychotics approved for bipolar depression (BD), however not effective for treating the current major depressive episode, whether taken alone or in combination with a mood stabilizer might be permitted. AiCure services for medication compliance and meal intake were discontinued and replaced with Q1.6 for medication reminders. Vendor names were removed from the body of the protocol. |
