Montgomery Asberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS) Change From Baseline to Week 3Change from Baseline to Week 3MADRS is a clinician-rated scale measuring depression symptom severity, consisting of 10 items, each scored from 0 (normal) to 6 (severe), for a total possible score of between 0 to 60; higher scores denote greater severity. Response \>= 50% decrease and remission \<= 10 total score.

Outcome results

Primary

MADRS Change From Baseline to Week 3, Sensitivity Analysis

MADRS is a clinician-rated scale measuring depression symptom severity, consisting of 10 items, each scored from 0 (normal) to 6 (severe), for a total possible score of between 0 to 60; higher scores denote greater severity. Response \>= 50% decrease and remission \<= 10 total score.

Time frame: Change from Baseline to Week 3

Population: The per-protocol analysis set includes all participants in the Full Analysis Set who do not have a protocol deviation that is thought to significantly affect the integrity of the participant's efficacy data.

MADRS is a clinician-rated scale measuring depression symptom severity, consisting of 10 items, each scored from 0 (normal) to 6 (severe), for a total possible score of between 0 to 60; higher scores denote greater severity. Response \>= 50% decrease and remission \<= 10 total score.

Time frame: Change from Baseline to Week 3

Population: The full analysis set includes all participants randomised who receive study drug and have at least 1 post-dose efficacy assessment.

Comparison: The primary analysis was the comparison between COMP360 (25 mg or 10 mg) versus COMP360 1 mg. The null hypothesis was that there was no difference in mean change from Baseline in MADRS total score at Week 3 for COMP360 25 mg or COMP360 10 mg versus COMP360 1 mg. The alternative hypothesis was that were was a difference in mean change from Baseline in MADRS total score at Week 3 for COMP360 25 mg or COMP360 10 mg versus COMP360 1 mg.p-value: <0.0595% CI: [-10.2, -2.9]Mixed Models Analysis
