Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Mean Change From Baseline to Week 12 in Clinician Administered Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) Scale (CAPS-5) Total Symptom Severity ScoreBaseline to Week 12

Clinician Administered Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) Scale (CAPS-5) is a clinician administered, clinical interview where participants report on their symptoms of PTSD on a scale. The CAPS-5 total score ranges between 0 and 80. Higher scores indicate more severe PTSD symptoms.

Change in CAPS-5 total score is being reported, where negative mean scores indicate an improvement in clinical outcome.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Mean Change From Baseline to Week 12 in Clinical Global Impression of Severity (CGI-S)Baseline to Week 12

Clinical Global Impression of Severity (CGI-S) is a clinician assessment used to assess the severity of the participants' PTSD on a scale range of 1 to 7, where 1 indicates "normal, not at all ill" and a 7 indicates "among the most extremely ill participants".

Change in CGI-S is being reported with negative mean values indicating an improvement in clinical outcome.

Mean Change From Baseline to Week 12 in Patient Global Impression of Severity (PGI-S)Baseline to Week 12

Patient Global Impression of Severity (PGI-S) is a patient assessment designed to evaluate severity of PTSD symptoms on a scale from 1 to 5, where 1 indicates "none" and 5 indicates "very severe".

Change in PGI-S is being reported with negative mean values indicating an improvement in clinical outcome.
