to evaluate the efficacy of lumateperone vs placebo for the treatment of major depressive disorders (MEDs) associated with bipolar 1 or bipolar II disorder (bipolar depression) in pediatric patients aged 10 to 17 years as measured by the change from baseline to the end of Week 6 in the Childrens Depression Rating Scale, revised (CDRS R) Total Score

简要总结

A Phase 3, global, multicenter, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of lumateperone as treatment for pediatric patients experiencing MDEs associated with bipolar I or bipolar II disorder.

The study will be conducted as follows:

A Screening Period of up to 2 weeks during which patient eligibility will be assessed. Short extensions to the Screening Period may be granted by the Sponsor or designee in exceptional circumstances. If the site has the capacity for inpatient confinement, patients may be admitted as inpatients during the Screening Period for a monitored washout of prohibited medications for bipolar depression. The option for inpatient confinement is for safety, as determined by the investigator. If a patient is not able to transition to outpatient status at the baseline visit, they must be screen failed and returned to standard of care treatment.

A 6-week Double-blind Treatment Period (DBTP):

o At Baseline (Visit 2) patients who continue to meet all eligibility criteria will be randomized to either lumateperone or placebo o Randomization will be stratified based on age group (10 to 12 years or 13 to 17 years), region (US or non-US), and bipolar disorder type (bipolar I or bipolar II disorder).

o The first dose of study drug will be administered at the study center on Day 1

(Baseline/Visit 2)

o Starting on Day 2 and through the end of the DBTP, under LAR supervision, study drug will be orally self-administered at home once daily, at approximately the same time each evening, with or without food.

A 1-week Safety Follow-up (SFU) period during which no lumateperone will be administered. With the exception of patients enrolling directly into the open-label safety study, all patients should return to the clinic for the SFU visit approximately one week after Visit 8/early termination (ET). Patients may start/resume standard-of-care treatment as needed per physician discretion.

Patients who safely complete the 6-week DBTP may enroll in a 6-month open-label safety study at Visit 8 (Week 6) if they meet eligibility criteria and if they are considered by the Investigator to  be ppropriate to participate in the 6-month, open-label safety study.
