Change From Baseline in Hamilton Rating Scale for Depression-17 (HAM-D-17) Total Score
The HAM-D-17 was used to rate the severity of depression in participants who were already diagnosed as depressed. The HAM-D-17 is comprised of 17 individual items: Items scored in a range of 0 to 2 include: insomnia (early, middle, late), somatic symptoms (gastrointestinal and general), genital symptoms, loss of weight, and insight. The following items are scored in a range of 0 to 4: agitation, depressed mood, feelings of guilt, suicide, work and activities, retardation, anxiety (psychic and somatic), and hypochondriasis, where 0 indicated none/absent and higher scores indicated greater depression. The Total Score can range from 0 (least depression) to 52 (greater depression), and higher scores indicate a greater degree of depression. A negative change from baseline indicates less depression. A positive change from baseline indicates more depression.
Clinical Global Impression-Improvement (CGI-I) Score
The CGI-I response was defined as having a score of 1 (very much improved) or 2 (much improved). CGI-I assessment employs a 7-point Likert scale to measure the improvement in the participant's condition. The investigator rated the participant's total improvement whether or not it was due entirely to drug treatment. Response choices include: 0 = not assessed, 1 = very much improved, 2 = much improved, 3 = minimally improved, 4 = no change, 5 = minimally worse, 6 = much worse, and 7 = very much worse. The CGI-I was only rated at post-treatment assessments. By definition, all CGI-I assessments were evaluated against baseline conditions.
