The MADRS is a 10-item, clinician-rated scale that evaluates the participant's depressive symptomatology during the past week. Participants are rated on items assessing feelings of sadness, lassitude, pessimism, inner tension, suicidality, reduced sleep or appetite, difficulty in concentration, and lack of interest. Each item will be scored on a 7- point scale with a score of 0 reflecting no symptoms and a score of 6 reflecting symptoms of maximum severity. Thus, scores in the MADRS range from 0 to 60, with increasing scores indicating increasing severity.

An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a participant or clinical trial participant, temporally associated with the use of trial intervention, whether or not considered related to the trial intervention. Any AE occurring following the start of treatment or occurring before treatment but increasing in severity afterward were counted as treatment-emergent AE (TEAE). Clinically significant abnormalities in Clinical Laboratory Evaluations, ECGs, Vital Signs, Physical and Ophthalmological examinations, Corneal Specular Microscopy, Columbia Suicide Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS), and Sexual Functioning Questionnaire-14 (CSFQ-14) will be reported as TEAEs.

The HAMD-17 was a 17-item clinician-rated instrument used to assess the range of symptoms that were most frequently observed in participants with major depression. All items were scored on an ordinal scale between 0 and 4 (9 items) or 0 and 2 (8 items) of increasing severity. Each of 17 items was rated by clinician with rating of 0: absent, 1: doubtful to mild, 2: mild to moderate, 3: moderate to severe, and 4: very severe. A total score (0 to 52) was calculated by adding scores of all 17 items, where 0 indicated no depression and 52 indicated severe depression. Higher score represents more severe condition. Baseline is defined as the latest non-missing measurement prior to or within 1 hour of the first administration of study drug. Change from Baseline is defined as post dose visit value minus Baseline value.
