About this study

Official title: A Multi-center, Randomized, Controlled Trial to Evaluate the Effectiveness of a Digital Therapeutic (CT-152) as Adjunctive Therapy in Adult Subjects Diagnosed With Major Depressive Disorder

This study compares the effectiveness of 2 digital therapeutics in adult participants diagnosed with major depressive disorder (MDD) who are on antidepressant therapy (ADT) monotherapy for the treatment of depression.

Read the detailed description

This is a pivotal, 13-week, multi-center, randomized, controlled trial to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of two digital therapeutics in adult participants diagnosed with MDD who are on antidepressant therapy (ADT) monotherapy for the treatment of depression.

The trial consists of a 3-week screening period, a 6-week treatment period, and a 4-week extension. Trial visits will be conducted remotely either by video visit or telephone. The screening visit may be performed in person at the discretion of the investigator. Eligible participants will be randomized to 1 of 2 digital therapeutics within a mobile application that will reside on the participant's personal iPhone or smartphone.

The trial population will include male and female participants between 22 and 64 years of age with a primary diagnosis of major depressive disorder (MDD) who are on an ADT for the treatment of depression. This trial will analyze data gathered from approximately 360 participants in the United States. An interim analysis will be conducted when a targeted sample of the first 180 participants has completed week 6 or discontinued the trial prior to week 6.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Digital Therapeutic A - CT-152OtherParticipants received digital treatment session by using the CT-152 mobile application (app) from Day 1 up to Week 6 of the treatment period. Each treatment session consisted of Emotional Faces Memory Task (EFMT) exercises and a psychotherapy lesson. From Week 7 up to Week 10 participants continued using the CT-152 app with optional psychotherapy lesson but did not receive any new EFMT exercises during this period. Participants continued receiving brief SMS messages during Weeks 7 to 10 as a reminder of the previously completed CT-152 treatment courses.

Digital Therapeutic B - ShamOtherParticipants received digital treatment session by using a sham mobile app from Day 1 up to Week 6 of the treatment period. Each treatment session consisted of a Shape and Memory Task (SMT) exercise only. From Week 7 up to Week 10 participants continued using the sham app but did not receive any new SMT exercises during this period. Participants continued receiving brief SMS messages during Weeks 7 to 10 as a reminder of the previously completed sham treatment courses.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Change From Baseline to Week 6 in the MADRS Total Score

    The MADRS is used to assess depressive symptom severity. It consists of 10 items (apparent sadness, reported sadness, inner tension, reduced sleep, reduced appetite, concentration difficulties, lassitude, inability to feel, pessimistic thoughts and suicidal thoughts), each rated from 0 to 6 with zero being the "best" rating and 6 being the "worst" rating. The MADRS total score is the sum of ratings for all 10 items. The total score ranges from 0 to 60. A higher score on the MADRS represents a more severe level of depression. A negative change from baseline indicates improvement. Least square (LS) mean was estimated using Mixed Model Repeated Measures (MMRM) method.

    Measured: Baseline (Day 1) to Week 6

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Change From Baseline to Week 6 in the GAD-7 Total Score

    The GAD-7 is self-reported questionnaire designed to assess anxiety in participants. The scale contains 7 items (anxiety symptoms) and each item was rated by the participants from 0 (not at all) to 3 (nearly every day) based on how much they were bothered by each symptom. The total score ranges from 0 to 21. A higher score on the GAD-7 represents greater anxiety symptomatology. A negative change from baseline indicates improvement. LS mean was estimated using MMRM method.

    Measured: Baseline (Day 1) to Week 6
