Change from baseline in the MADRS total score at Week 6
Montgomery-Asberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS)is a clinician-rated assessment of a subject's level of depression. The MADRS total score ranges from a minimum of 0 to a maximum of 60. For the MADRS total score, low scores indicate a better outcome and high scores indicate a worse outcome. When change from baseline is considered, a negative (decrease in score) value is considered a better outcome, and a positive (increase in score) value is considered a worse outcome. The MADRS contains ten (10) items. The total score is computed as the sum of the scores for the 10 items.
Time frame: Baseline/ week 6
