Trial Outcomes & Findings for Safety and Tolerability of Vortioxetine (LuAA21004) - Open Label Extension Study (NCT NCT01152996)

NCT ID: NCT01152996

Last Updated: 2014-05-28

Results Overview

Treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAE) are adverse events with an onset that occurs after receiving study drug and within 30 days after receiving the last dose of study drug. A TEAE may also be a pretreatment adverse event or a concurrent medical condition diagnosed prior to the date of first dose of study drug that increases in severity after the start of dosing.

Participant Flow

Participants took part in the study at 143 investigative sites in the United States from 07 Sep 2010 to 31 May 2013.

Patients who completed Studies LuAA21004\_315 (NCT01153009), LuAA21004\_316 (NCT01163266), and LuAA21004\_317 (NCT01179516) and were willing to continue, and judged by the investigator to benefit from a 52-week continuation treatment with Lu AA21004, were enrolled and received flexible doses of study drug, based on patient response and tolerability.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Over the 52 week period

Population: Safety set

Serious treatment-emergent adverse events (serious-TEAE) are adverse events with an onset that occurs after receiving study drug and within 30 days after receiving the last dose of study drug. A serious-TEAE may also be a pretreatment adverse event or a concurrent medical condition diagnosed prior to the date of first dose of study drug that increases in severity after the start of dosing. Serious Adverse Events include adverse events that result in death, require either inpatient hospitalization or the prolongation of hospitalization, are life-threatening, result in a persistent or significant disability/incapacity or result in a congenital anomaly/birth defect. Other important medical events, based upon appropriate medical judgment, may also be considered serious adverse events if a trial participant's health is at risk and intervention is required to prevent an outcome mentioned.

The change between MADRS total score at each assessed visit and MADRS score at baseline. MADRS is a 10-item clinician rated scale to measure overall severity of depressive symptoms (i.e., apparent sadness, reported sadness, inner tension, etc.) rated on a 7-point Likert scale from 0 (normal) to 6 (most abnormal) with a total score range from 0 to 60. Higher scores indicate greater severity of symptoms.

The change between CGI-S score at each assessed visit and CGI-S score at baseline. The CGI-S assesses the clinician's impression of the subject's current state of mental illness and consists of one question for the investigator: "Considering your total clinical experience with this particular population, how mentally ill is the patient at this time?" which is rated on a seven-point scale (1=normal, not ill at all; 2=borderline mentally ill; 3=mildly ill; 4=moderately ill; 5=markedly ill; 6=severely ill; 7=extremely ill). Higher scores indicate greater severity of illness.
