ketamine and Cacosmia

ketamine has been researched along with Cacosmia in 2 studies

Ketamine: A cyclohexanone derivative used for induction of anesthesia. Its mechanism of action is not well understood, but ketamine can block NMDA receptors (RECEPTORS, N-METHYL-D-ASPARTATE) and may interact with sigma receptors.
ketamine : A member of the class of cyclohexanones in which one of the hydrogens at position 2 is substituted by a 2-chlorophenyl group, while the other is substituted by a methylamino group.

Trial Outcomes

Change From Baseline in Clinical Global Impression-Severity (CGI-S) Score to Endpoint (Double-blind Induction Phase [Day 28])- ANCOVA Analysis on Ranks

"CGI-S provides an overall clinician-determined summary measure of the severity of the participants illness including participants history, psychosocial circumstances, symptoms, behavior, and the impact of the symptoms on the participants ability to function. The CGI-S evaluates the severity of psychopathology on a scale of 0 to 7. Considering total clinical experience, a participant is assessed on severity of mental illness at the time of rating according to: 0=not assessed; 1=normal (not at all ill); 2=borderline mentally ill; 3=mildly ill; 4=moderately ill; 5=markedly ill; 6=severely ill; 7=among the most extremely ill patients. Missing data was imputed using LOCF method and last post baseline observation during the double-blind induction phase was carried forward as the End Point for that phase." (NCT02422186)

EQ-5D-5L is a 2-part instrument for use as a measure of health outcome, designed for self-completion by respondents. It consists of EQ-5D-5L descriptive system and EQ VAS. The EQ VAS self-rating records the respondent's own assessment of his or her overall health status at the time of completion, on a scale of 0 (the worst health you can imagine) to 100 (the best health you can imagine).

Participant selects answer for each of 5 dimensions considering response that best matches his/her health today. Responses were used to generate a Health Status Index (HSI). Health Status Index range is -0.148 - 0.949, is anchored at 0 (dead) and 1 (full health).

The participant's item responses are summed to provide a total score (range of 0 to 27) with higher scores indicating greater severity of depressive symptoms. The severity of the PHQ-9 is categorized as follows: None-minimal (0-4), mild (5-9), moderate (10-14), moderately severe (15-19) and severe (20-27). The change from baseline in PHQ-9 total score, (LOCF data) at endpoint was reported. The last post baseline observation was carried forward as the endpoint. (NCT02493868)
Timeframe: Baseline and Endpoint (Up to 92 Weeks)

InterventionUnits on a scale (Mean)
Intranasal Esketamine + Oral AD1.7
Oral AD+ Intranasal Placebo4.7

Change From Baseline in Sheehan Disability Scale (SDS) Total Score at Endpoint in Participants With Stable Remission (Maintenance Phase)

The SDS is a participant-reported outcome measure and is a 5-item questionnaire used and accepted for assessment of functional impairment and associated disability. The first 3 items assess disruption of 1: work/school 2: social life 3: family life/home responsibilities using a 0-10 rating scale. It also has one item on days lost from school or work and one item on days when underproductive. The score for the first 3 items are summed to create a total score of 0-30 where a higher score indicates greater impairment. The recall period is 7 days. Scores <= 4 for each item and <= 12 for the total score are considered response. Scores <= 2 for each item and <= 6 for the total score are considered remission. The change from baseline in SDS total Score, (LOCF data), at endpoint was reported. The last post baseline observation was carried forward as the endpoint. (NCT02493868)

Change From Baseline in Sheehan Disability Total Score at Endpoint in Participants With Stable Response (But Not in Stable Remission) (Maintenance Phase)

The SDS is a participant-reported outcome measure and is a 5-item questionnaire used and accepted for assessment of functional impairment and associated disability. The first 3 items assess disruption of 1: work/school 2: social life 3: family life/home responsibilities using a 0-10 rating scale. It also has one item on days lost from school or work and one item on days when underproductive. The score for the first 3 items are summed to create a total score of 0-30 where a higher score indicates greater impairment. The recall period is 7 days. Scores <= 4 for each item and <= 12 for the total score are considered response. Scores <= 2 for each item and <= 6 for the total score are considered remission.

Time to Relapse in Participants With Stable Remission (Maintenance Phase)

Relapse is defined as any of following: Montgomery-asberg depression rating scale (MADRS) total score greater than or equal to (>=) 22 for 2 consecutive assessments separated by 5-15 days and/or hospitalization for worsening depression or any other clinically relevant event to be suggestive of a relapse of depressive illness such as suicide attempt/completed suicide/hospitalization for suicide prevention; If hospitalized, start date of hospitalization will be date of relapse, if not hospitalized date of event will be used. MADRS: clinician-rated scale to measure depression severity and to detect changes due to antidepressant treatment. It has 10 items, scored from 0-6 (not present/normal-severe/continuous symptoms), with total score of 60. Higher scores mean more severe condition. Stable remission: MADRS total score less than or equal to (<=) 12 for at least 3 of last 4 weeks of OP phase, with 1 excursion total score greater than (>) 12 or one missing assessment at OP week 13 or 14. (NCT02493868)
Timeframe: Time from randomization to the first relapse during the maintenance phase (up to 92 Weeks)

Time to Relapse in Participants With Stable Response (But Not in Stable Remission) (Maintenance Phase)

Relapse is defined as any of following: MADRS total score >= 22 for 2 consecutive assessments separated by 5-15 days and/or hospitalization for worsening depression or any other clinically relevant event to be suggestive of a relapse of depressive illness such as suicide attempt/completed suicide/hospitalization for suicide prevention; If hospitalized, start date of hospitalization will be date of relapse, if not hospitalized date of event will be used. MADRS: clinician-rated scale to measure depression severity and to detect changes due to antidepressant treatment. It has 10 items, scored from 0-6 (not present/normal-severe/continuous symptoms), with total score of 60. Higher scores mean more severe condition. Stable response is defined as >= 50 percent (%) reduction in MADRS total score from baseline (Day 1 of induction phase, prior to first intranasal dose) in each of the last 2 weeks of the OP phase, but without meeting criteria for stable remission. (NCT02493868)
Timeframe: Time from randomization to the first relapse during the maintenance phase (up to 92 Weeks)
