PrimaryChange From Baseline to End of Treatment Period I in Montgomery-Asberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS) Total ScoreBaseline and Week 8
The MADRS is a 10-item scale to measure the severity of depressive episodes, where each item is rated on a scale from 0 to 6. The MADRS total score ranges from 0 to 60 with lower scores indicating less depressive symptoms.
SecondaryChange From Baseline in MADRS Total Score (Treatment Period I)Baseline and Weeks 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8
The MADRS is a 10-item scale to measure the severity of depressive episodes, where each item is rated on a scale from 0 to 6. The MADRS total score ranges from 0 to 60 with lower scores indicating less depressive symptoms.
SecondaryChange From Baseline in MADRS Total Score (Combined Treatment Period I and II)Baseline (Week 0 for FK949E 150 mg/FK949E & FK949E 300 mg/FK949E and Week 12 for Placebo/FK949E) and Weeks 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12 13, 14, 16, 18, 20, 24, 28, 32, 36, 40, 44, 48, 52
The MADRS is a10-item scale to measure the severity of depressive episodes, where each item is rated on a scale from 0 to 6. The MADRS total score ranges from 0 to 60 with lower scores indicating less depressive symptoms. Baseline for Placebo / FK949E was at week 12 therefore no data were calculated for weeks 1-12.
SecondaryNumber of Participants With MADRS Response (Treatment Period I)Baseline and Weeks 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8
A MADRS response was defined as a decrease in MADRS total score of 50% or more from baseline. The MADRS is a10-item scale to measure the severity of depressive episodes, where each item is rated on a scale from 0 to 6. The MADRS total score ranges from 0 to 60 with lower scores indicating less depressive symptoms.
SecondaryNumber of Participants With MADRS Response (Combined Treatment Period I and II)Baseline (Week 0 for FK949E 150 mg/FK949E & FK949E 300 mg/FK949E and Week 12 for Placebo/FK949E) and Weeks 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 13, 14, 16, 18, 20, 24, 28, 32, 36, 40, 44, 48, 52
A MADRS response was defined as a decrease in MADRS total score of 50% or more from baseline. The MADRS is a 10-item scale to measure the severity of depressive episodes, where each item is rated on a scale from 0 to 6. The MADRS total score ranges from 0 to 60 with lower scores indicating less depressive symptoms. Baseline for Placebo / FK949E was at week 12 therefore no data were calculated for weeks 1-12.
SecondaryNumber of Participants With MADRS Remission (Treatment Period I)Weeks 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8
MADRS remission was defined as MADRS total score of 12 or less. The MADRS is a 10-item scale to measure the severity of depressive episodes, where each item is rated on a scale from 0 to 6. The MADRS total score ranges from 0 to 60 with lower scores indicating less depressive symptoms.
SecondaryNumber of Participants With MADRS Remission (Combined Treatment Period I and II)Weeks 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 13, 14, 16, 18, 20, 24, 28, 32, 36, 40, 44, 48, 52
MADRS remission was defined as MADRS total score of 12 or less. The MADRS is a 10-item scale to measure the severity of depressive episodes, where each item is rated on a scale from 0 to 6. The MADRS total score ranges from 0 to 60 with lower scores indicating less depressive symptoms. Baseline for Placebo / FK949E was at week 12 therefore no data were calculated for weeks 1-10.
SecondaryChange From Baseline in Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HAM-D17) Total Score (Treatment Period I)Baseline and Weeks 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8
The HAM-D17 is a clinician-rated 17-item scale for assessing the severity of depression symptoms. The scores for each item range from 0 to 4 or 0 to 2, where 0 represents no symptoms. The rating is based on the past 7 days prior to the time of assessment. The total score ranges from 0 to 52, where a higher score indicates a greater depressive state.
SecondaryChange From Baseline in HAM-D17 (Combined Treatment Period I and II)Baseline (Week 0 for FK949E 150 mg/FK949E & FK949E 300 mg/FK949E and Week 12 for Placebo/FK949E) and Weeks 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 20, 28, 36, 40, 44, 52
The HAM-D17 is a clinician-rated 17-item scale for assessing the severity of depression symptoms. The scores for each item range from 0 to 4 or 0 to 2, where 0 represents no symptoms. The rating is based on the past 7 days prior to the time of assessment. The total score ranges from 0 to 52, where a higher score indicates a greater depressive state.

SecondaryNumber of Participants With HAM-D17 Response (Treatment Period I)Baseline and Weeks 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8
A HAM-D17 response was defined as a decrease in HAM-D17 total score of 50% or more from baseline. The HAM-D17 is a clinician-rated 17-item scale for assessing the severity of depression symptoms. The scores for each item range from 0 to 4 or 0 to 2, where 0 represents no symptoms. The rating is based on the past 7 days prior to the time of assessment.
