Trial Overview

Trial Outcomes

MADRS Score - Baseline

Antidepressant effects were assessed using the Montgomery-Åsberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS). It is a ten-item diagnostic questionnaire which psychiatrists use to measure the severity of depressive episodes. Higher MADRS score indicates more severe depression, and each item yields a score of 0 to 6. The overall score ranges from 0 to 60. (NCT00088699)
Timeframe: Baseline

MADRS Score - Day 1 Following Intervention

Antidepressant effects were assessed using the Montgomery-Åsberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS). It is a ten-item diagnostic questionnaire which psychiatrists use to measure the severity of depressive episodes. Higher MADRS score indicates more severe depression, and each item yields a score of 0 to 6. The overall score ranges from 0 to 60. (NCT00088699)
Timeframe: Day 1

Beck Depression Inventory (BDI) Score.

Beck Depression Inventory (BDI) is a 21-question instrument for measuring the severity of depression. Each question has a set of at least four possible answer choices, ranging in intensity. A value of 0 to 3 is assigned for each answer and the total score is computed. Higher total scores indicate more severe depressive symptoms. (NCT00986479)
Timeframe: 60 minutes (min) prior to dosing (baseline); and 60 min, 80 min, 110 min, 230 min, 1 day, 2 days, 3 days and 7 days following dosing.

Brief Psychiatric Rating Scale (BPRS) Positive Score.

Brief Psychiatric Rating Scale (BPRS) Positive is a 4-item scale which measures positive symptoms of schizophrenia (conceptual disorganization, hallucinatory behavior, suspiciousness, and unusual thought content). Each item is rated from 1 to 7 with higher score indicating greater severity. The total score is the sum of the 4 items, resulting in a range of scores from 4-28. (NCT00986479)
Timeframe: 60 minutes (min) prior to dosing (baseline); and 60 min, 80 min, 110 min, 230 min, 1 day, 2 days, 3 days and 7 days following dosing.

Brief Psychiatric Rating Scale (BPRS) Score.

"The Brief Psychiatric Rating Scale (BPRS) is a 18-item scale which measures symptoms and behaviors that are characteristic of schizophrenia. Each item is rated from 1 to 7 with higher score indicating greater severity. The total score is the sum of the 18 items, resulting in a range of scores from 18-126.~18 is considered to be the best outcome, 126 the worst." (NCT00986479)

Clinician-Administered Dissociative States Scale (CADSS) Score.

Clinician- Administered Dissociative States Scale (CADSS) is a clinician-administered measure of perceptual, behavioral, and attentional alterations occurring during dissociative experiences. This scale involves a 23 questions and each is rated from 0 (not at all) to 4 (extremely). The total score is sum of the 23 items and range from 0 to 92 - best is 0 and worst is 92. (NCT00986479)
Timeframe: 60 minutes (min) prior to dosing (baseline); and 60 min, 80 min, 110 min, 230 min, 1 day, 2 days, 3 days and 7 days following dosing

Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale (HAM-A) Total Score.

Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale (HAM-A) is used as a rating measure of anxiety severity. The scale consists of 14 items. Each item is rated on a scale of 0 to 4. The HAM-A total score is the sum of the 14 items and the score ranges from 0 to 56. 0 is considered the best outcome, 56 the worst. (NCT00986479)
Timeframe: 60 minutes (min) prior to dosing (baseline); and 230 min, 1 day, 2 days, 3 days and 7 days following dosing.

Hamilton Depression Rating Scale-17 item (HDRS) is a scale that assesses depressive symptoms. HDRS consists of 17 symptoms, each of which is rated from 0 to 2 or 0 to 4, where 0 is none/absent. The total score is calculated as the sum of the 17 individual symptom scores; the total score can range from 0 to 52. Higher scores indicate more severe depression. (NCT00986479)
Timeframe: 60 minutes (min) prior to dosing (baseline); and 60 min, 80 min, 110 min, 230 min, 1 day, 2 days, 3 days and 7 days following dosing
