Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Change From Baseline in Hamilton Depression Rating Scale-17 (HDRS-17) Total Score at Week 6
Change from baseline in HDRS-17 total score at Week 6 was reported. The HDRS-17 is a clinician-administered rating scale designed to assess the severity of symptoms in participants diagnosed with depression with a score range of 0 to 52. Each of the 17 items is rated by the clinician on either a 3-point (0 to 2) or a 5-point scale (0 to 4). The point scale used a rating of 0 (absent), 1 (doubtful to mild), 2 (mild to moderate), 3 (moderate to severe), and 4 (very severe). A total score (range: 0 to 52) was calculated by adding the scores of all 17 items. For each item as well as the total score, a higher score represents a more severe condition (greater depression).

Secondary Outcome Measures

Change From Baseline in Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale (HAM-A) Total Score at Week 6
Change from baseline in HAM-A total score at Week 6 was reported. HAM-A is a 14-item scale designed to measure severity of anxiety-related symptoms in participants. Each question reflects a symptom of general anxiety, including physical anxiety and mental anxiety. Each item was rated on a 5-point scale ranged from 0 (not present) to 4 (maximum anxiety). The total score was sum of 14 items scores and it ranged from 0 (normal) to 56 (severe), where higher score indicated greater degree of anxiety symptom. The total score was categorized as 0-13: normal range, 14-17: mild severity, 18-24: mild to moderate severity, 25-30: moderate to severe, and >=31: severe. Negative change in score indicates improvement.
Change From Baseline in HAM-A Total Score at Weeks 2 and 4
Change from baseline in HAM-A total score at Weeks 2 and 4 were reported. HAM-A is a 14-item scale designed to measure severity of anxiety-related symptoms in participants. Each question reflects a symptom of general anxiety, including physical anxiety and mental anxiety. Each item was rated on a 5-point scale ranged from 0 (not present) to 4 (maximum anxiety). The total score was sum of 14 items scores and it ranged from 0 (normal) to 56 (severe), where higher score indicated greater degree of anxiety symptom. The total score was categorized as 0-13: normal range, 14-17: mild severity, 18-24: mild to moderate severity, 25-30: moderate to severe, and >=31: severe. Negative change in score indicates improvement.
Change From Baseline in HDRS-17 Total Score in Participants With a Baseline HAM-A Score >=20 at Week 6
Change from baseline in HDRS-17 total score in participants with a baseline HAM-A score >=20 at Week 6 was reported. The HDRS-17 is a clinician-administered rating scale designed to assess the severity of symptoms in participants diagnosed with depression with a score range of 0 to 52. Each of the 17 items is rated by the clinician on either a 3-point (0 to 2) or a 5-point scale (0 to 4). The point scale used a rating of 0 (absent), 1 (doubtful to mild), 2 (mild to moderate), 3 (moderate to severe), and 4 (very severe). A total score (range: 0 to 52) was calculated by adding the scores of all 17 items. For each item as well as the total score, a higher score represents a more severe condition (greater depression).
Change From Baseline in HAM-A Total Score in Participants With a Baseline HAM-A Score >=20 at Week 6
Change from baseline in HAM-A total score in participants with a baseline HAM-A score >=20 at Week 6 was reported. HAM-A is a 14-item scale designed to measure severity of anxiety-related symptoms in participants. Each question reflects a symptom of general anxiety, including physical anxiety and mental anxiety. Each item was rated on a 5-point scale ranged from 0 (not present) to 4 (maximum anxiety). The total score was sum of 14 items scores and it ranged from 0 (normal) to 56 (severe), where higher score indicated greater degree of anxiety symptom. The total score was categorized as 0-13: normal range, 14-17: mild severity, 18-24: mild to moderate severity, 25-30: moderate to severe, and >=31: severe. Negative change in score indicates improvement.
Change From Baseline in Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7 (GAD-7) Total Score at Week 6
Change from baseline in GAD-7 total score at Week 6 was reported. The GAD-7 is a brief and validated 7-item self-reported assessment of overall anxiety. Participants respond to each item using a 4-point scale with response categories of 0=not at all, 1=several days, 2=more than half the days, and 3=nearly every day. Item responses are summed to yield a total score with a range of 0 to 21, where higher scores indicate more anxiety. The recall period is 2 weeks. The severity of the GAD-7 is categorized as follows: None (0-4), Mild (5-9), Moderate (10-14) and Severe (15-21).
Change From Baseline in Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9) Total Score at Weeks 2 and 4
Change From baseline in PHQ-9 total score at Weeks 2 and 4. The PHQ-9 is a 9-item, Patient Reported Outcome (PRO) measure to assess depressive symptoms. The scale scores each of the 9 symptom domains of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders-5th Edition (DSM-5) major depressive disorder (MDD) criteria. Each item is rated on a 4 point scale (0=not at all, 1=several days, 2=more than half the days, and 3=nearly every day). The participants item responses are summed to provide a total score (range of 0 to 27), with higher scores indicating greater severity of depressive symptoms. The severity of the PHQ-9 is categorized as follows: None-minimal (0-4), Mild (5-9), Moderate (10-14), Moderately Severe (15-19) and Severe (20-27).
Change From Baseline in HDRS-17 Total Score at Weeks 2 and 4
Change From baseline in HDRS-17 total score at Weeks 2 and 4. The HDRS-17 is a clinician-administered rating scale designed to assess the severity of symptoms in participants diagnosed with depression with a score range of 0 to 52. Each of the 17 items is rated by the clinician on either a 3-point (0 to 2) or a 5-point scale (0 to 4). The point scale used a rating of 0 (absent), 1 (doubtful to mild), 2 (mild to moderate), 3 (moderate to severe), and 4 (very severe). A total score (range: 0 to 52) was calculated by adding the scores of all 17 items. For each item as well as the total score, a higher score represents a more severe condition (greater depression).
Number of Participants With Treatment-emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) as a Measure of Safety and Tolerability
An adverse event (AE) was any untoward medical occurrence in a participant who received study drug without regard to possibility of causal relationship. TEAEs were events during the initiation of study drug up till follow-up period.
Total Plasma Concentration of JNJ-61393215
Total plasma concentration of JNJ-61393215 was reported. The concentrations of JNJ-61393215 were measured using a validated, specific, and sensitive liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry/mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) method.
Plasma Protein Binding (PPB): Percentage of JNJ-61393215 Unbound
Percentage of JNJ-61393215 unbound was determined by using a liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry/mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) method. The protein binding was assessed by spiking plasma samples with radiolabeled JNJ-61393215.
