Primary Outcome Measures

Change From Baseline on the Children's Depression Rating Scale-Revised (CDRS-R) Total Score
Change from baseline on the Children's Depression Rating Scale-Revised (CDRS-R) total score. CDRS-R Total score measures the presence and severity of depression in children. The scale consists of 17 items scored on a 1-to-5- or 1-to-7-point scale. A rating of 1 indicates normal functioning and a higher number indicates a greater degree of depression. The total sum of scores range from 17 to 113. In general, scores below 20 indicate an absence of depression, scores of 20 to 30 indicate borderline depression, scores of 40 to 60 indicate moderate depression, and scores greater than 60 indicate severe depression. Least squares (LS) mean was calculated using a mixed-effects model repeated measures (MMRM) approach including treatment group, observation time-points, and interaction between treatment group and observation time-points as fixed effects, and baseline CDRS-R total score and age as covariates.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Percentage of Participants Whose Children's Depression Rating Scale-Revised (CDRS-R) Total Score Decreased by More Than 30% From Baseline
The Children's Depression Rating Scale-Revised (CDRS-R) Total score measures the presence and severity of depression in children. The scale consists of 17 items scored on a 1-to-5- or 1-to-7-point scale. A rating of 1 indicates normal functioning and higher numbers indicate a greater degree of depression. The total sum of scores range from 17 to 113. In general, scores below 20 indicate an absence of depression, scores of 20 to 30 indicate borderline depression, scores of 40 to 60 indicate moderate depression, and scores greater than 60 indicate severe depression.
Percentage of Participants Whose CDRS-R Total Score Decreased by More Than 50% From Baseline
The Children's Depression Rating Scale-Revised (CDRS-R) total score measures the presence and severity of depression in children. The scale consists of 17 items scored on a 1-to-5- or 1-to-7-point scale. A rating of 1 indicates normal functioning with higher numbers indicating a greater degree of depression . The total sum of scores range from 17 to 113. The total sum of scores range from 17 to 113. In general, scores below 20 indicate an absence of depression, scores of 20 to 30 indicate borderline depression, scores of 40 to 60 indicate moderate depression, and scores greater than 60 indicate severe depression.
Percentage of Participants With Total Children's Depression Rating Scale-Revised (CDRS-R) Score ≤ 28
The Children's Depression Rating Scale-Revised (CDRS-R) total score measures the presence and severity of depression in children. The scale consists of 17 items scored on a 1-to-5- or 1-to-7-point scale. A rating of 1 indicates normal functioning and higher numbers indicate a greater degree of depression. The total sum of scores range from 17 to 113. In general, scores below 20 indicate an absence of depression, scores of 20 to 30 indicate borderline depression, scores of 40 to 60 indicate moderate depression, and scores greater than 60 indicate severe depression. Remission was defined for the CDRS-R total score below 28.
Change From Baseline on Clinical Global Impression-Severity (CGI-S)
CGI-S measures severity of illness at the time of assessment compared with start of treatment. Scores range from 1 (normal, not at all ill) to 7 (among the most extremely ill patients). Presented here are the LS mean change from baseline on CGI-S calculated using a mixed-effects model repeated measures (MMRM) approach including treatment group, observation time-points, and interaction between treatment group and observation time-points as fixed effects, and baseline CGI-S and age as covariates.
