NCT ID: NCT03968159
Brief Summary: To evaluate the efficacy and safety of adjunctive pimavanserin compared to placebo in subjects with major depressive disorder who have an inadequate response to antidepressant therapy
Detailed Description: Two separate studies, idential in design, were planned and initiated under 2 protocol IDs and NCTs, i.e. study ACP-103-54 (NCT03999918) and ACP-103-059 (NCT03968159). In March 2020, recruitment of new patients was paused due to the emerging coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. At that point in time, about half of the planned patients had been randomized. The Sponsor decided to combine the 2 identically designed trials, with a prespecified combined statistical analysis plan. As a result, both trials were closed and proceeded with database lock and statistical analysis of the combined data. No further patients were enrolled. This entry now includes the combined data of studies ACP-103-054 and ACP-103-059.
