Detailed description

The secondary endpoints include the mean change in MADRS scores from baseline to Week 12, which will evaluate the long-term effects of the treatment. Additionally, cognitive outcomes will be assessed at both Day 28 and Week 12 to examine the impact of the treatment on cognitive function.
