Who may be able to join
- Established diagnosis of Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) as confirmed at the time of screening by the Mini International Neuropsychiatric Interview (MINI), with a duration of current depressive episode ≥ 8 weeks and ≤ 24 months at the time of screening visit.
- At least moderate severity of MDD confirmed by a trained site-based rater, at screening and Visit 2 day 1 (i.e. prior to randomisation). For patients who are not on an SSRI at Visit 1, MDD must be confirmed additionally at Visit 1 A.
- In the current episode, patients have shown insufficient treatment response (defined by less than 50 % response to one or more antidepressant drugs of adequate dose and treatment duration (according to Summary of Product Characteristics) as evaluated by Antidepressant Treatment Response Questionnaire (ATRQ). Participants, who, in addition to their monotherapy with an SSRI/SNRI, are taking additional low dose antidepressant medications for purposes other than treating depressive symptoms, are not excluded.

Patients who are not on an SSRI at Visit 1 will undergo a lead in phase as described in the Flow Chart. Patients who meet all the eligibility criteria but are not on an SSRI/SNRI at Visit 1, will have the option to undergo a 6 week open label lead in phase with SSRI/SNRI. These patients will be reassessed at Visit 1A to determine eligibility to be randomized to the trial.
- Male or female patients, aged 18 to 65 years at screening. If Women of childbearing potential (WOCBP) are included, they have to be able and willing to use two methods of contraception which include one highly effective method of birth control per ICH M3 (R2) that result in a low failure rate of less than 1 %, plus one additional barrier method.

- Signed and dated written informed consent in accordance with ICH-GCP and local legislation prior to admission to the trial. Please note complete sexual abstinence is allowed when this is in line with the preferred and usual lifestyle of the patient (note: periodic abstinence such as calendar, ovulation, symptothermal, post-ovulation methods and withdrawal are not acceptable methods of contraception) - (in this specific case the barrier methods, as mentioned below, are not applicable). Sexual abstinence as a contraceptive method will not be allowed for WOCBP who are heterosexually active.

About this study
Official title: Randomized, Double-blind (Patient, Investigator), Placebo-controlled, Parallel Group, Single Dosing Study on Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetic and Preliminary Efficacy of BI 1569912 as Adjunctive Therapy in Patients With Major Depressive Disorder
This study is open to adults between 18 and 65 years of age who have depression (major depressive disorder). People with a current depressive episode lasting between 2 months and one and a half years can join the study. This study is for people for whom existing treatments for depression do not work sufficiently.
The purpose of this study is to test how well a medicine called BI 1569912 is tolerated and whether it may help people with depression.

It is planned to test 4 different dosages of BI 1569912 in this study. Each participant gets either one BI 1569912 dosage or placebo. It is decided randomly, which means by chance, who gets which treatment. Participants take BI 1569912 or placebo as tablets once during the study. Placebo tablets look like BI 1569912 tablets but do not contain any medicine. Participants also continue taking their usual medicine for depression throughout the study.
Participants are in the study for about 5 weeks. During this time, they visit the study site 4 times, with a stay at the study site for 9 days.
The doctors check the health of the participants and note any health problems that could have been caused by BI 1569912. The participants fill in questionnaires about their depression symptoms.

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Maximum Decrease From Baseline (Peak Decrease) in Montgomery-Åsberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS) Score at Any Day Within a 7-day Interval
Maximum decrease from baseline (peak decrease) in Montgomery-Åsberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS) score at any day within a 7-day interval. The MADRS evaluates ten core symptoms of depression. Nine of the items are based upon patient reports and one is on the rater's observation (apparent sadness) during the rating interview. MADRS items are rated on a 0-6 continuum (0=no abnormality, 6=severe). The possible total score is the sum of all items and could range from 0 to 60 (from normal with absence of symptoms to severe depression). Values presented are based on an analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) model, including treatment as discrete fixed effect and baseline MADRS total score as continuous fixed effect.
Measured: Evaluations taken at baseline (day -63 to -3) and on day 1, 2, 4, 6 and 8 (with trial drug intake on day 1).
Number of Patients With Drug-related Adverse Events
Number of patients with any drug-related Adverse Events.
Measured: The on treatment period + Follow up period, up to 15 days.
Secondary outcomes (1)
Montgomery-Åsberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS) Area Under the Curve (AUC) 0-166:30
Montgomery-Åsberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS) Area under the curve (AUC) 0-166:30, defined as the area under the response curve from pre-dose to the last measurement during inpatient stay at 166:30 h using the trapezoidal rule divided by full duration (166.5 h). The MADRS evaluates ten core symptoms of depression. Nine of the items are based upon patient reports and one is on the rater's observation (apparent sadness) during the rating interview. MADRS items are rated on a 0-6 continuum (0=no abnormality, 6=severe). The possible total score is the sum of all items and could range from 0 to 60 (from normal with absence of symptoms to severe depression). Values presented are based on an analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) model, including treatment as discrete fixed effect and baseline MADRS total score as continuous fixed effect.
Measured: Scale recorded at 7:00 hour (h) (Day 1), 22:30 h (Day 2), 70:30 h (Day 4), 118:30 h (Day 6), and 166:30 h (Day 8) post dose.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 1 study testing 5 mg BI 1569912 and 20 mg BI 1569912 in people with Depressive Disorder, Major, run by Boehringer Ingelheim at 10 sites in United States.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 6 inclusion and 8 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 14 Aug 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 10 sites in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
What does this phase mean?
Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
Are results available for this study?
Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 14 Aug 2026). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Maximum Decrease From Baseline (Peak Decrease) in Montgomery-Åsberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS) Score at Any Day Within a 7-day Interval (time frame: Evaluations taken at baseline (day -63 to -3) and on day 1, 2, 4, 6 and 8 (with trial drug intake on day 1).). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 14 Aug 2026.
