Citalopram: A furancarbonitrile that is one of the serotonin uptake inhibitors used as an antidepressant. The drug is also effective in reducing ethanol uptake in alcoholics and is used in depressed patients who also suffer from TARDIVE DYSKINESIA in preference to tricyclic antidepressants, which aggravate dyskinesia.
citalopram : A racemate comprising equimolar amounts of (R)-citalopram and its enantiomer, escitalopram. It is used as an antidepressant, although only escitalopram is active.
1-[3-(dimethylamino)propyl]-1-(4-fluorophenyl)-1,3-dihydro-2-benzofuran-5-carbonitrile : A nitrile that is 1,3-dihydro-2-benzofuran-5-carbonitrile in which one of the hydrogens at position 1 is replaced by a p-fluorophenyl group, while the other is replaced by a 3-(dimethylamino)propyl group.

Trial Overview

Trial Outcomes

Change From Baseline in the Montgomery-Åsberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS) Total Score at Week 10

The MADRS is a clinician-rated scale based on participant interviews. The scale assesses depressive symptomatology that occurred in participants during the week preceding each interview. Participants were rated on 10 items: Apparent sadness, reported sadness, inner tension, reduced sleep, reduced appetite, concentration difficulties, lassitude, inability to feel, pessimistic thoughts, and suicidal thoughts. Each item was scored on a 7-point scale from 0 (no symptoms) to 6 (symptoms of maximum severity). The total score was the sum of the scores of the 10 items and ranged from 0 to 60. A higher score indicates more depressive symptomatology. A negative change score indicates improvement. (NCT01473381)
Timeframe: Baseline to Week 10

Change From Baseline to Week 10 in the Clinical Global Impressions-Severity (CGI-S) Scale Score

"The Clinical Global Impressions-Severity scale is a clinician-rated scale used to rate the severity of the participant's current state of mental illness compared with a patient population with major depressive disorder. In particular, the clinician is asked to respond to the following question: Considering your total clinical experience with this population, how mentally ill is the patient at this time? The patient is rated on the following 7-point scale: 1-normal, not at all ill, 2-borderline ill, 3-mildly ill, 4-moderately ill, 5-markedly ill, 6-severely ill, 7-among the most extremely ill patients. A higher score indicates more mental illness. A negative change score indicates improvement." (NCT01473381)
Timeframe: Baseline to Week 10

Percentage of Participants With a Montgomery-Åsberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS) Sustained Response

The MADRS is a clinician-rated scale based on participant interviews. The scale assesses depressive symptomatology that occurred in participants during the week preceding each interview. Participants were rated on 10 items: Apparent sadness, reported sadness, inner tension, reduced sleep, reduced appetite, concentration difficulties, lassitude, inability to feel, pessimistic thoughts, and suicidal thoughts. Each item was scored on a 7-point scale from 0 (no symptoms) to 6 (symptoms of maximum severity). The total score was the sum of the scores of the 10 items and ranged from 0 to 60. A higher score indicates more depressive symptomatology. A MADRS sustained response was defined as a MADRS total score ≤ 12 for at least the last 2 visits during the double-blind treatment period (Weeks 1-10). A total MADRS score ≤ 12 corresponds to an average score of 1 per item and is indicative of very low level of depressive symptoms. (NCT01473381)
Timeframe: Baseline to Week 10
