Trial Outcomes & Findings for Study To Evaluate The Efficacy And Safety Of Balovaptan In Adults With Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) (NCT NCT05401565)

NCT ID: NCT05401565

Last Updated: 2024-04-18

Results Overview

The Clinician-Administered PTSD Scale for DSM-5 (CAPS-5) measures the severity of PTSD where smaller scores indicate less severe PTSD and higher scores suggest more severe PTSD. Possible scores for this 30 item version range from 0 to 120. Measured 3 times over 12 weeks.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: From Baseline up to Week 12

Population: ITT Population

PHQ-9 is a 9-item PRO used to assess severity of depression. Responses are rated based on frequency of symptoms on a 4-point Likert scale, ranging from 0 (not at all) to 3 (nearly every day). A total PHQ-9 total score ranging from 0 to 27 can be calculated by summing the nine items, of which a higher score corresponds to more severe depression.
