Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: 1. History or presence of a medical condition or disease that in the Investigator’s opinion would place the subject at an unacceptable risk as a result of trial participation. 2. Any clinically significant abnormality in electrocardiogram (ECG) or safety laboratory tests that in the Investigator’s opinion would place the subject at an unacceptable risk as a result of trial participation. 3. Receipt of another investigational drug within 45 days prior to screening, or if the screening visit is within 5 half-lives of another investigational drug received (whichever is longer), or scheduled to receive another investigational drug during the current study period. 4.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: To demonstrate that Samyr IM is superior to placebo IM as an enhancer adjunctive to antidepressant therapy. The primary endpoint is the change from baseline in the Montgomery Asberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS) for Depression score after 7 days (visit 13) of treatment. ;Secondary Objective: To compare mean change from baseline to day 14 (visit 20) for MADRS, Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HDRS)-6, Patient Global Impression (PGI) scale and Clinical Global Impression (CGI) scale between the 2 treatments. To evaluate the safety and tolerability of Samyr IM. ;Primary end point(s): Change from baseline in the MADRS score after 7 days of treatment (visit 13);Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 7 days

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary end point(s): Change from baseline in the MADRS score after 14 days of treatment (visit 20); Change from baseline of the HDRS-6, PGI and CGI scales after 7 and 14 days of treatment (visits 13 and 20);Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: after 14 days; after 7 and 14 days of treatment
