Trial Outcomes & Findings for Study Evaluating Desvenlafaxine Succinate Sustained-Release (DVS SR) in Adult Outpatients With Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) (NCT NCT01432457)
NCT ID: NCT01432457
Last Updated: 2014-01-20
Results Overview
HAM-D17 is a standardized, clinician-administered rating scale that assesses 17 items characteristically associated with major depression (symptoms such as depressed mood, guilty feelings, suicide, sleep disturbances, anxiety levels, and weight loss). Each item is scored on either a 3 point (0 to 2) or a 5 point scale (0 to 4), for a maximum total score of 52; higher scores indicate more depression. Change from baseline: score at observation minus score at baseline.

PRIMARY outcome
Timeframe: Baseline to Week 8 (final on-therapy)Population: Intent-To-Treat (ITT) population: randomized subjects who have taken at least 1 dose of double-blind investigational product, and had a baseline and at least 1 post-baseline HAM-D17 total score. Imputation technique: A mixed effects model for repeated measures (MMRM) was used with the baseline HAM-D17 score as a covariate.

Each item is scored on either a 3 point (0 to 2) or a 5 point scale (0 to 4), for a maximum total score of 52; higher scores indicate more depression.

Timeframe: Baseline to Week 8 (final on-therapy)Population: Safety population: randomized subjects who have taken at least 1 dose of double-blind investigational product. Imputation technique: ASEX scale total score analyzed using analysis of covariance based on LOCF data. ASEX data only analyzed for subjects indicating sexual activity at baseline and a timepoint during post-baseline.
The ASEX scale has 5 items to assess sexual functioning with a 1-week recall period. The 5 items assess sex drive, ease of arousal, ease of erection/lubrication, ease of orgasm and orgasm satisfaction. Subjects were encouraged to complete all 5 items regardless of sexual activity during the past week. However, all analyses utilized only the data for the visits where the presence of sexual activity was indicated. Each individual score ranged from 1 to 6; the total score (based on the sum of the individual items) ranged from 5 to 30; higher scores indicated worse sexual function.
