  • Meet DSM-5 criteria for postpartum depression (PPD): experiencing a major depressive episode that began at any time starting at the beginning of the second trimester (≥14 weeks) of pregnancy through 4 weeks post delivery.
  • Has a Hamilton Depression Scale (HAM-D) total score meeting severity threshold at Screening and Baseline.
  • Is not using any psychotropic medications or psychotherapy for 30 days prior to Screening, OR are on an already stable/established regimen of SSRIs or psychotherapy for 30 days prior to Screening.
  • Has ceased breastfeeding at Screening.
  • Has a negative pregnancy test at Screening and Day 0 prior to study drug administration.

Exclusion Criteria

  • History or active postpartum psychosis per Investigator assessment.
  • History of treatment-resistant depression within the current postpartum depressive episode.
  • Has a significant risk of suicide.
  • Active or medical history of bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorder, psychotic disorder and/or borderline personality disorder, or first-degree family history of psychosis or bipolar disorder.
  • Medically significant condition rendering unsuitability for the study .
  • Has received electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) or transcranial magnetic stimulation within 90 days prior to Screening.
  • Has used psychedelics such as psilocybin, ayahuasca, mescaline, or LSD (with the exception of cannabis) within 12 months prior to Screening.
  • Has used or will need to use prohibited medications.

Arms & Interventions

1.5 mg RE104

Active Comparator

A single subcutaneous injection of 1.5 mg RE104 for Injection

Intervention: RE104 for Injection (Drug)

30 mg RE104

Experimental

A single subcutaneous injection of 30 mg RE104 for Injection

Intervention: RE104 for Injection (Drug)

Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

RE104 30 mg versus RE104 1.5 mg change from baseline in MADRS total score

Time Frame: Day 7

Montgomery-Åsberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS) is a 10-item clinician rated scale measuring depression severity. The total score ranges from 0-60 with higher scores representing greater severity of depression.

Secondary Outcomes

  • RE104 30 mg versus RE104 1.5 mg percentage of patients with MADRS response (≥ 50 percent reduction in score from baseline)(Day 7)
  • RE104 30 mg versus RE104 1.5 mg change from baseline in CGI-Severity (CGI-S)(Day 1, Day 7 and Day 28)
  • RE104 30 mg versus RE104 1.5 mg change from baseline in MADRS total score(Day 1, Day 14 and Day 28)
  • RE104 30 mg versus RE104 1.5 mg percentage of patients with MADRS remission (score ≤ to 10)(Day 7)
  • RE104 30 mg versus RE104 1.5 mg changes in total score from baseline in Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale (HAM-A)(Day 7)
  • RE104 30 mg versus RE104 1.5 mg Clinical Global Impression-Improvement (CGI-I)(Day 1, Day 7 and Day 28)
  • RE104 30 mg versus RE104 1.5 mg incidence of treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) by frequency, severity and seriousness.(From dosing through study completion (post-dose follow-up is for 28 days))
