Major Depressive Disorder

Brief summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy in patients with major depressive disorder.

Detailed description

The screening phase is intended for diagnosing and assessing the patient for possible inclusion in the study and for providing an adequate washout period. The following study will be conducted in two parts. Part I is an open-label study, multiple center and dose escalation evaluation in twelve patients. Six subjects each will be evaluated for safety and efficacy assessments at 1 or 2 capsules TID dose for 28 days, sequentially. Each of them will be assessed twice in the first week after administration of PDC-1421 Capsules and once a week in the following treatment. Part II is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group study. 60 subjects will be randomly assigned on a 1:1:1 basis to one of the three arms (1 PDC-1421 Capsule plus 1 placebo TID, 2 PDC-1421 Capsules TID, 2 placebo TID) for 6 weeks and evaluated the safety and efficacy every two weeks during the treatment period.

Interventions

PDC-1421 Capsule is a botanical investigational new drug containing the extract of Radix Polygalae (Polygala tenuifolia Willd.) as active ingredient.

DRUGplacebo

Placebo contained corn starch.

MeasureTime frameDescription
Change of Montgomery-Asberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS) Total Score From Baseline to Week 6 Compared to Placebo for Part II.From Baseline to Week 6The MADRS is a 10-item checklist of depressive symptoms. Each Item is rated on a scale of 0-6, with anchors at 2-point intervals; higher scores indicating more severity (i.e., ranging from 0 \[no sadness\] to 6 extremely despondent\]). The total MADRS score was calculated by summing the ratings of all items. The total MADRS score for this measure ranges from 0 (absence of symptoms) to 60 (maximum severity).

MeasureTime frameDescription
Change of Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HAM-D-17) Total Score From Baseline to Week 2, 4, 6 and 7 for Part II.From Baseline to Week 2, 4, 6 and 7HAM-D-17 scale is a clinician rated scale comprised of 17 items aimed at assessing depression severity among patients for treatment. Each item on the questionnaire is scored on a 3 point (8 items) or 5 point (9 items) scale, depending on the item. The total HAM-D-17 score was calculated by summing the ratings of all items. . The highest possible score was 52, which represented the most severe measure of depression; the lowest possible score was 0, which represented an absence of depression.
Change of Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale (HAM-A) Total Score From Baseline to Week 2, 4, 6 and 7 for Part II.From Baseline to Week 2, 4, 6 and 7HAM-A is a series of questions related to symptoms of anxiety. It rates the individual on a five-point scale (0\ 4) for each of the 14 items. Seven of the items specifically address psychic anxiety and the remaining seven items address somatic anxiety. The total HAM-A score was calculated by summing the ratings of all items. The total HAM-A score ranges from 0 to 56. The higher score represented a more severe measure of anxiety.
Change of Depression and Somatic Symptoms Scale (DSSS) From Baseline to Week 2, 4, 6 and 7 for Part IIFrom Baseline to Week 2, 4, 6 and 7DSSS includes a simultaneous measure of depression and somatic symptoms that two issues frequently co-occur. Consisting of 22 items, the DSSS includes 12 depression-related items (even items + item-21) and 10 somatic items (add items without item-21) - 5 of which query pain symptoms(item-1, 7, 11, 13, 17), forming a pain sub-scale. Each Item is rated on a scale of 0 (Absent) - 3 (Severe). DSSS Depression Sub-Score was calculated by summing the 12 depression-related items with ranges from 0 (absence of symptoms) to 36 (maximum severity). DSSS Somatic Sub-Score was calculated by summing the 10 somatin-related items with ranges from 0 (absence of symptoms) to 30 (maximum severity). DSSS Pain Sub-Score was calculated by summing the 5 pain-related items with ranges from 0 (absence of symptoms) to 15 (maximum severity).

Change of Montgomery-Asberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS) Total Score From Baseline to Week 6 Compared to Placebo for Part II.

The MADRS is a 10-item checklist of depressive symptoms. Each Item is rated on a scale of 0-6, with anchors at 2-point intervals; higher scores indicating more severity (i.e., ranging from 0 \[no sadness\] to 6 extremely despondent\]). The total MADRS score was calculated by summing the ratings of all items. The total MADRS score for this measure ranges from 0 (absence of symptoms) to 60 (maximum severity).

Time frame: From Baseline to Week 6

Population: The Intention-To-Treat (ITT) population consisted of 60 randomized subjects. The Per-Protocol (PP) population consisted of 44 randomized subjects. This Outcome Measure was conducted for Part II only.

Change of Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HAM-D-17) Total Score From Baseline to Week 2, 4, 6 and 7 for Part II.

HAM-D-17 scale is a clinician rated scale comprised of 17 items aimed at assessing depression severity among patients for treatment. Each item on the questionnaire is scored on a 3 point (8 items) or 5 point (9 items) scale, depending on the item. The total HAM-D-17 score was calculated by summing the ratings of all items. . The highest possible score was 52, which represented the most severe measure of depression; the lowest possible score was 0, which represented an absence of depression.

Change of Montgomery-Asberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS) Total Score From Baseline to Week 2, 4 and 7 Part II.

The MADRS is a 10-item checklist of depressive symptoms. Each Item is rated on a scale of 0-6, with anchors at 2-point intervals; higher scores indicating more severity (i.e., ranging from 0 \[no sadness\] to 6 extremely despondent\]). The total MADRS score was calculated by summing the ratings of all items. The total MADRS score for this measure ranges from 0 (absence of symptoms) to 60 (maximum severity).
