简要总结
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if ABX-002 added to participants' existing treatment(s) can improve clinical symptoms of depression and to learn about potential effects on brain chemistry that may correlate with antidepressive effects.
This is a single treatment arm, open-label, Phase 2 study of ABX-002 in up to30 adults with bipolar depression. A subset of these participants will undergo brain imaging. Five healthy volunteer participants will also be enrolled and receive no drug treatment, undergoing 2 imaging sessions to confirm instrument and test - retest method reliability control.
For bipolar disorder participants who are experiencing an episode of depression, the study will include 4 study periods:
- Screening Period of up to 5 weeks
- 6-week Treatment Period
- 2-week post dose Safety Follow-up Period.
- 6-month postdose targeted safety follow-up period
For healthy volunteers, the study will include 2 study periods:
- Screening Period of up to 3 weeks
- Imaging Period of up to 3 weeks.

研究组 & 干预措施
ABX-002 + at least one mood stabilizer and/or single second-generation antipsychotic (SGA)
Participants will continue all medications intended to treat the current episode of depression for the duration of the study in addition to ABX-002
干预措施: ABX-002 (Drug)
结局指标
主要结局
Change from baseline for 17-item Hamilton Rating Scale for Depression (HAMD-17)
时间窗: Weeks 6
HAMD-17 is a clinician-based assessment of depressive symptoms. Higher scores indicate worse symptoms. A score of 0-9 is generally accepted to be within the normal range (or in clinical remission), while a score of greater than 17 indicates moderate to severe depression symptoms.
次要结局
- Change from baseline for 29-item Hamilton Rating Scale for Depression (HAMD-29)(Weeks 6)
- Correlation of change from baseline in the anterior cingulate cortex (ACC) nucleoside triphosphate/inorganic phosphate (NTP/Pi) concentrations with percentage change in Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HAMD)-17(Week 6)
- Correlation of change from Baseline in the anterior cingulate cortex (ACC) phosphocreatine/inorganic (PCr/Pi) concentration with percentage change in Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HAMD)-17(Week 6)
- Change from baseline for 29-item Hamilton Rating Scale for Depression (HAMD-29)(Weeks 6)
- Change from baseline in 6-item Hamilton Rating Scale for Depression (HAMD-6)(Weeks 6)
