Trial Outcomes & Findings for Long-term Safety Study of Rapastinel as Adjunctive Therapy in Patients With Major Depressive Disorder (NCT NCT03002077)

NCT ID: NCT03002077

Last Updated: 2020-06-22

Results Overview

An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a patient or clinical investigation patient administered a pharmaceutical product and which does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with this treatment. An AE can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding, for example), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product, whether or not considered related to the medicinal product.

Participant Flow

The study was planned to be terminated when 100 patients had completed the 52-week Open Label Treatment Period (OLTP).

Patients who either completed the RAP-MD-04 Double-blind Treatment Period (DBTP) or who did not meet criteria to be randomized into the DBTP of RAP-MD-04 and were therefore discontinued from that study were eligible for Study RAP-MD-06.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 52 Weeks

Population: The Safety Population consisted of all screened patients who received at least 1 dose of rapastinel during the OLTP of the study.

An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a patient or clinical investigation patient administered a pharmaceutical product and which does not necessarily have to have a causal relationship with this treatment. An AE can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding, for example), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a medicinal product, whether or not considered related to the medicinal product.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline to 52 Weeks

Population: The Safety Population consisted of all screened patients who received at least 1 dose of rapastinel during the OLTP of the study.

The BPRS+ is a subset of the BPRS that assesses 4 components of the BPRS+ related to the degree of psychosis: Conceptual Disorganization, Suspiciousness, Hallucinatory Behavior, and Unusual Thought Content assessed by the investigator using a 7-point scale ranging from 1=Not Present to 7=Extremely Severe for a total possible score of 0 (best) to 28 (worst). A negative change from Baseline indicates improvement.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline to 52 Weeks

Population: The Safety Population consisted of all screened patients who received at least 1 dose of rapastinel during the OLTP of the study.

The Clinician Administered Dissociative States Scale (CADSS) is a clinician-administered measure of perceptual, behavioral, and attentional alterations occurring during active dissociative experiences composed of 23 subjective self-reported and 5 objective observer-reported ratings, each scored from 0 (not at all) to 4 (extremely). Only the 23 subjective items will be collected and analyzed. The sum of each of the 23 subjective items was used for a total score of 0-92. A negative change from Baseline indicates improvement.
