Downloaded From: https://jamanetwork.com/ on 09/29/2021 300 301 The double-blind treatment period begins with the investigational site call into IVRS 302 confirming the patient’s eligibility. The patient will be randomized and receive their first 303 dose of study medication on Day 1. 304 305 Dose 1 of the blinded study medication is to be administered in the clinic immediately 306 after a meal and before 12 pm (noon), or soon thereafter upon consultation with the 307 Sponsor/Medical Monitor, once all baseline procedures and assessments are completed. 308 Patients will remain at the clinic for 6 hours after the first dose for safety monitoring and 309 for the PK samples (according to clinical observation and patient availability). 310 Subsequently, dosing will be once daily in the morning immediately after breakfast. 311 312 As with any experimental drug at this stage of development, it is advisable for patients 313 not to drive or operate dangerous machinery until known side effects (e.g., dizziness and 314 somnolence) can be adequately assessed on an individual basis during the trial. 315 316 Patients will arrive at each study visit without having taken their daily dose of study 317 medication, and site staff will record the time of their last dose. Following collection of 318 the pre-dose PK blood sample (if applicable) and a meal, patients will take their next dose 319 of study medication before 12 pm (noon) or soon thereafter upon consultation with the 320 Sponsor/Medical Monitor. The last dose of study medication will be administered on Day 321 42 (End-of-Treatment visit). 322 323 Early Discontinuers will be instructed to return as soon as possible for the End-of- 324 Treatment visit, and 21 days later for the Follow-up visit. 325 326 Follow-up Period (21 days) 327 328 A Follow-up Visit will take place 21 days after the End-of-Treatment visit. During the 329 follow-up period, adjustments to antidepressant treatments may be initiated if deemed 330 necessary by the investigator. 331 332 STATISTICAL ANALYSES: 333 334 Main efficacy analysis will be performed in a confirmatory manner based on ITT 335 population, using a mixed effects covariance pattern model (MMRM) to utilize all the 336 data collected over time. A closed testing procedure will be used to take multiple 337 comparisons into account. As supporting analysis, the analysis may be repeated on the 338 per-protocol population. Another supportive analysis will use an ANCOVA with LOCF 339 imputation for missing data. The primary efficacy variable is change in the Montgomery 340 Asberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS) total score from baseline to end of treatment. 341 342 All safety variables (e.g., adverse events, lab tests, ECG, vital signs, BPRS, YMRS, 343 ASEX) will be summarized for each assessment time (including follow-up) using 344 descriptive statistics. The items of the C-SSRS will be presented by individual listings 345 and the outcomes from this scale will be classified using the C-CASA methodology.

Downloaded From: https://jamanetwork.com/ on 09/29/2021 897 898 899 PART I: STUDY DESIGN AND CONDUCT 900 901 1. BACKGROUND AND RATIONALE 902 903 1.1 Background 904 Glutamate is the main excitatory neurotransmitter that mediates its effects via ionotropic 905 glutamate (iGlu) receptors (NMDA, AMPA and kainate receptors) and metabotropic 906 glutamate (mGlu) receptors (G-protein coupled receptors). There are currently eight 907 known mGlu receptors that are classified into three clusters based on sequence 908 homology, preferred signal transduction pathway, and pharmacology. Group I includes 909 mGlu1 and mGlu5 receptors, which are coupled via Gq to phospholipase C. Group II 910 includes mGlu2 and mGlu3 receptors, and Group III includes mGlu 4, 6, 7 and 911 8 receptors, all of which are coupled to Gi and inhibit cAMP formation. 912 913 The mGlu5 receptor has emerged as an attractive target for the treatment of anxiety and 914 depressive disorders based on its expression pattern in the brain and the efficacy of 915 mGluR5 antagonists in various animal models of these diseases. mGlu5 receptors are 916 highly expressed in limbic areas of the brain including the limbic cortex, the 917 hippocampus, the amygdala and the basal ganglia. These areas are known to be involved 918 in emotional and motivational processes and play a critical role in affective disorders 919 including anxiety and depression. A general review of the relevance of the 920 system in the treatment of mood disorders is provided by Sanacora et al [1]. 921 922 There is evidence from nonclinical and clinical studies to suggest that glutamatergic 923 dysfunctions may be involved in the pathophysiology of depression, and that 924 interventions aimed to modify the glutamatergic neurotransmission may possess 925 antidepressant effects. In fact, the prototypical mGluR5 antagonists MPEP and MTEP 926 have been shown to induce positive results in the forced swim test and tail suspension 927 tests animal models of depression. Additional supportive evidence has been originated 928 from olfactory bulbectomized rats (a different animal model) on which known chronic 929 (but not acute) anti-depressant treatment selectively reduce passive avoidance deficits and 930 hyperactivity, also reversed by MPEP and MTEP administration. Recent clinical data 931 indicate that ketamine, an NMDA channel blocking agent, has a fast acting (within hours) 932 antidepressant-like effect in treatment-resistant patients [2]. Given the co-localization of 933 NMDA receptors and mGlu5 receptors in the limbic regions, and that the downstream 934 effects of mGlu5 receptor blockade are related to down-regulation of NMDA function, 935 there is a strong rationale for antidepressant-like activity for mGlu5 receptor antagonists. 936 937 1.1.1 Disease 938 Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) remains an area of considerable medical need despite 939 the many agents approved for treatment of this illness. Response rates for initial treatment 940 are estimated to be about 50%, while remission, considered to be the goal of treatment, 941 ranges from 15 to 40% [3]. The recently published results of the STAR*D trial have 942 provided sobering conclusions regarding the conceptualization of remission and its 943 implications for defining recovery, relapse, and recurrence [4]. The study showed that 944 only one-third of patients achieved remission with initial treatment, and remission rates 945 declined even further with each successive treatment attempt (36.8% after first, 30.6%

CONFIDENTIAL Roche Protocol NP25620 C (RO4917523) - Page22

Downloaded From: https://jamanetwork.com/ on 09/29/2021 946 947 after second, 13.7% after third and 13% after fourth treatment). Moreover, various 948 switching strategies employed as second-line treatment did not yield very different 949 results [5]. 950 951 Failure to obtain remission, therefore, is a common clinical problem. Patients who are 952 treatment resistant use a disproportionately larger share of health care resources, have 953 significantly more claims for comorbid conditions, and cost employers more in lost 954 productivity compared with patients with major depression who respond to treatment. 955 Given the disabling impact of persistent depression and its medical consequences, one 956 can argue that new treatments addressing inadequate response to antidepressant therapy 957 in MDD would fulfill an important medical need. 958 959 1.1.2 Study “Drug” 960 RO4917523 will be provided in capsules for this study. Further information is provided 961 in Section 6, Investigational Medicinal Product. 962 963 1.2 Non-Clinical Experience 964 965 1.2.1 Non-Clinical Pharmacology

966 In vitro, RO4917523 has been shown to be a potent mGlu5 receptor antagonist (Kd of 967 0.8 nM for human mGlu5 receptors). When RO4917523 was tested for activity on other 968 relevant targets (over 100), it exhibited over 1000-fold lower activity at all targets 969 including receptors, enzymes and ion channels. In animal models of anxiety, RO4917523 970 elicits dose-dependent anxiolytic effects in the Stress-Induced Hyperthermia (SIH) model 971 in mice, in the Vogel Conflict Test in rats, the Fear Potentiated Startle response in rats, 972 and in the Conditioned Emotional Response (CER) tests in rats. Furthermore, 973 RO4917523 was also active in animal models used to detect antidepressant potential such 974 as the forced swim test and the stress-induced anhedonia test. In sleep studies, 975 RO4917523 induced an increase in non-REM:REM ratio supportive of an 976 anti-depressant-like profile. RO4917523 did not potentiate the effects of ethanol in mice 977 and had no cognitive impairing activity in the delayed match to position test in rats. 978 However, RO4917523 impaired performance in the Morris water maze in two different 979 protocols at doses above 0.1 mg/kg p.o. at 4 h post-administration. 980 981 1.2.2 Non-Clinical Pharmacokinetics and Metabolism

982 The estimated (single dose) volume of distribution at steady state (Vss) of RO4917523 983 was generally high in animals, 4 and 5 L/kg in rats and monkeys, respectively. The total 984 plasma clearance (CL) was low to moderate, approximately 6 and 9 mL/min/kg in rat and 985 monkeys, respectively. The terminal elimination half-life (T1/2) values were between 7.5 986 to 10 h in rat and monkey. 987 988 RO4917523 was well absorbed after oral administration and had a high oral 989 bioavailability in rodents and cynomolgus monkey. In monkeys, the bioavailability was 990 higher in fasted animals. 991 992 Plasma protein binding is expected to be high in man. The in vitro bound fraction was 993 approximately 95 to 98 %, respectively, in animal and human plasma. RO4917523 994 showed a moderate partitioning to blood cells with an in vitro blood/plasma concentration

The brain to plasma 997 concentration ratio in the rat ranged from 1.7 to 2.9. 998 999 The results of in vitro drug metabolism studies suggest that RO4917523 is predominantly 1000 metabolized to hydroxy-metabolites by cytochrome P450 enzymes (CYP 1A1, 1A2, 2C9, 1001 3A4, 3A5). CYP 3A isoforms were responsible for > 90% human liver microsomal 1002 metabolism. 1003 1004 Mass balance studies in rats with [14C]-RO4917523 indicate complete excretion within 1005 120 h of administration. 20% and 80% of total drug radioactivity was recovered in urine 1006 and feces, respectively. Quantitative whole body autoradiography revealed elevated 1007 concentrations of radioactivity in the inner cortex of the kidney, the liver, thyroid gland 1008 and nasal mucosa at 6 h. In cynomolgus monkeys, approximately 82% of the total 1009 radioactivity was recovered after 168 h postdose, excreted mainly in the feces. 1010 1011 1.2.3 Non –Clinical Safety and Toxicology 1012 In repeat-dose toxicity studies, the main targets for RO4917523-related systemic toxicity 1013 were the CNS, which is the pharmacological target, and as an adaptive response to drug 1014 load, the liver. Other organs (pituitary, thyroid, adrenals) were most probably secondarily 1015 affected. Chronic toxicity studies in rats and monkeys are currently ongoing. 1016 1017 Based on the available non-clinical safety information, the overall NOAEL for general 1018 toxicology effects is considered to be 4 mg/kg/day in adult and 10 mg/kg/day in juvenile 1019 rats, and 10 mg/kg/day in monkeys. In rat fertility studies the NOAEL for male mating 1020 performance was 1 mg/kg/day and for female fertility 0.3 mg/kg/day. 1021 1022 CNS-related effects were transiently observed in rats in general toxicology studies on the 1023 first or first few study days. They included drowsiness and hypoactivity. In CNS safety 1024 pharmacology studies in rats, the effects also included gait abnormalities, changes in 1025 body posture and body tone, and a transient decrease in body temperature, and after the 1026 occurrence of these early effects, slightly increased exploratory behavior from 2 to 1027 6 hours post dose. There was no obvious dose-effect relationship.

CONFIDENTIAL Roche Protocol NP25620 C (RO4917523) - Page24

Downloaded From: https://jamanetwork.com/ on 09/29/2021 1028 1029 1030 The NOEL for the CNS-effects is ≤ 0.1 mg/kg in rats (maximal effect reached at 1031 0.5-1 mg/kg without any further increase at higher doses. In rats, because of their low 1032 degree, transient nature with fast recovery, and occurrence on the first day or first few 1033 days of dosing only, and in monkeys, because of their low degree and inconsistent 1034 presence at doses ≤30 mg/kg, and because of ease of monitoring in humans, these effects 1035 are not considered ‘adverse’ from a safety perspective, but rather signs of exaggerated 1036 pharmacological activity. 1037 1038 The mechanism of these CNS effects is not known, but it is assumed that at the lower 1039 doses they are secondary effects of the mGlu5-antagonism of RO491723. Other 1040 mGlu5-antagonists have been reported to decrease locomotor activity, impair Rotarod 1041 performance and decrease body temperature. At the higher dose levels also off-target 1042 mechanisms may be involved. 1043 1044 Minor hepatic findings (minimal to slight liver cell hypertrophy), most likely related to 1045 the high drug load, were consistently only seen in rats (NOAEL 4 mg/kg/day). In clinical 1046 chemistry the most prominent change in rats was a 12-fold increase in GGT at 1047 100 mg/kg/day and dose-related, slightly higher levels in bilirubin, glucose, ALT, ALP, 1048 total cholesterol, LDL, and HDL at 25 and 100 mg/kg/day in the 4-week study and a 1049 slightly higher total cholesterol level at 28 mg/kg/day in the 13-week study. 1050 1051 In rats (males predominantly affected) there was a dose-related increase in incidence of 1052 hypertrophy of TSH-producing cells in the pituitary and an increase in incidence and 1053 severity of thyroid follicular cell hypertrophy starting at 25 mg/kg/day. These effects are 1054 considered secondary to the liver cell hypertrophy, which lead to increased metabolism of 1055 the thyroid hormone T4, a well known rat specific effect without relevance for humans. 1056 In the 13-week study this hypothesis was supported by the observations of (1) slightly 1057 reduced serum T4 levels (but not T3 and TSH) in mainly males, (2) slightly increased 1058 T4-glucuronidation activity in liver microsomes, and (3) induction of gene expression of 1059 UDP-glucuronyltransferase 2 in the liver. 1060 1061 Other effects in rats were a slight increase in adrenal weight in females at 25 and 1062 100 mg/kg/day and an increased incidence and degree of diffuse vacuolization in the 1063 adrenal cortex of males at 100 mg/kg/day. 1064 1065 In rats there were also some minor urinary findings which were considered of equivocal 1066 relevance, because of absence of adverse morphological changes in the 4-week study, an 1067 equivocal slight exacerbation only of ‘normal’ slight tubular basophilia in the kidney of 1068 males at the highest dose in the 13 week study, and absence of up-regulation of any of the 1069 known biomarker genes for kidney toxicity (in particular KIM-1). 1070 1071 All the findings in the multiple dose toxicity studies had fully recovered within the 1072 4-week recovery period, with the exception of liver and adrenal weights in female rats, 1073 which were still slightly higher than in concurrent controls.

Downloaded From: https://jamanetwork.com/ on 09/29/2021 1074 1075 In an oral toxicity study in juvenile rats (highest dose 10 mg/kg/day = MTD) RO4917523 1076 given from post-natal day 7 to 91 induced a decrease in male body weight gain at 1077 ≥0.5 mg/kg/day and an increase in female food intake at ≥ 2.5 mg/kg/day, behavioral 1078 changes of quantitative components of the functional observational battery (decreased 1079 forelimb grip strength and hindlimb splay) at ≥0.5 mg/kg/day, an increase in motor 1080 activity at 10 mg/kg/day, and reduced performance in the learning of path B in the 1081 Cincinnati water maze test (a learning and memory test) at ≥2.5 mg/kg/day. These 1082 effects, all considered target pharmacology-related, showed partial or full regression 1083 during the 4-week recovery period or the post recovery observation period. Sexual 1084 maturation and reproductive function were not adversely affected. In view of the 1085 pharmacology-related effects seen at all doses the NOEL was considered 1086 <0.5 mg/kg/day, and because of absence of adverse effects the NOAEL 10 mg/kg/day. 1087 1088 There were no signs of a genotoxic potential for RO4917523, and there was no 1089 experimental evidence of a direct systemic effect on the immune system. 1090 1091 RO4917523 was phototoxic in vitro (cultured murine fibroblasts), but not in vivo 1092 (hairless rat model), and therefore the risk for inducing a phototoxic skin reaction in man 1093 is considered very low. 1094 1095 In safety pharmacology studies, RO4917523 increased respiration rate in rats 1096 (NOAEL 0.2 mg/kg), increased heart rate (moderate, short lasting) in telemetered 1097 monkeys (NOAEL 10 mg/kg), and decreased gastric emptying and intestinal transit at 1098 ≥0.1 mg/kg. 1099 1100 In two rat models (Conditioned Place Preference and Intracranial Self Stimulation) for 1101 assessing the reinforcing potential of RO4917523 (doses of up to 3 mg/kg p.o. or i.p., 1102 respectively) there were no reinforcing effects. 1103 1104 RO4917523 was not teratogenic in the studies on embryo-fetal development in rats and 1105 rabbits. 1106 1107 In fertility studies in rats RO4917523 reduced the mating and fertility indices. These 1108 effects were fully reversible after a treatment-free recovery period of 9 weeks in males 1109 and 4 weeks in females. There were no morphological changes in sexual organs from 1110 both genders. The effect on the mating index was male-mediated (NOEL = 1 mg/kg/day), 1111 while the effect on fertility was female-mediated (NOEL = 0.3 mg/kg/day). In a 1112 combined fertility study (e.g. males and females treated with RO4917523), sperm count 1113 was slightly reduced at 25 mg/kg/day, but sperm motility was normal, whereas in the 1114 4-week general toxicology study with doses of up to 100 mg/kg no effect on either sperm 1115 count or sperm motility was seen. 1116 1117 1.3 Previous Clinical Experience 1118 RO4917523 has been dosed to 233 healthy volunteers in seven clinical studies (a single 1119 ascending dose [SAD] study, a multiple ascending dose [MAD] study, an alcohol 1120 interaction study, three relative bioavailability studies and a drug-drug interaction study) 1121 and to 86 patients in two clinical studies (one study in treatment-resistant depression and 1122 one in Fragile X Syndrome).

Most of the adverse events 1129 occurred within 0.5 to 3 hours after administration and were mostly related to CNS 1130 (mainly dizziness and somnolence). The number of adverse events (AEs) increased with 1131 the dose, particularly at doses above 1 mg (1 AE at 0.25 mg to 29 AEs at 2 mg). The AEs 1132 included hypoesthesia/paresthesia, myoclonus, vasovagal malaise (one with, one without 1133 loss of consciousness), disturbance in attention and amnesia, gastro-intestinal disorders 1134 (nausea, dry mouth), eye disorders (blurred vision, mydriasis), and psychiatric disorders 1135 (euphoric mood). Most of the AEs were of mild to moderate intensity but 5 AEs were 1136 reported as of severe intensity at the doses of 1.5 and 2 mg (4 cases of dizziness, 1 case of 1137 syncope). The dose escalation was stopped at 2 mg due to the occurrence of adverse 1138 events of moderate to severe intensity in the majority of the subjects. 1139 1140 1.3.1.2 Multiple Ascending Dose (MAD) Study 1141 During the MAD study, fixed or up-titrated doses of 0.1 mg to 2 mg were administered 1142 b.i.d. in the fasted or fed state during 14 days (with the exception of the 0.1 mg b.i.d. 1143 cohort in fasted condition that was terminated at Day 8 due to the occurrence of an acute 1144 psychotic state, rated as an SAE, and an acute state of anxiety). The most frequently 1145 reported AEs affected the ‘central nervous system’, ‘gastro-intestinal system’, and 1146 ‘general disorders system’. Dizziness was reported with a higher frequency in the active 1147 drug groups (1 to 3 per group of 6 to 9 subjects) than in the placebo group (1 in 1148 15 subjects). Although the exposure levels in this study exceeded those reached in the 1149 SAD study, there were no reports of severe dizziness and no clear relationship emerged 1150 between the dose and the incidence or intensity of dizziness, suggesting development of 1151 tolerance upon repeated dosing. No dose-response relationship emerged either for 1152 headache or drowsiness. However, when the drug was given in the fed state, a dose 1153 response pattern was suggested for the following neuropsychiatric events: mood 1154 (dysphoria, euphoria), cognition (attention and memory, including the cognitive battery 1155 results), perception and ideation (hallucinations, paranoid ideation) and sleep (insomnia, 1156 nightmares, and hypnagogic hallucinations in up to 38% of the subjects); these events 1157 occurred at doses > 1 mg. Such a pattern of dose response was not observed in the fasted 1158 state (0.1 and 0.25 mg b.i.d.). All effects resolved within a few days after discontinuation. 1159 There were no reports of withdrawal syndrome as assessed by the Rickels withdrawal 1160 questionnaire applied from Day 14 until Day 24. In most subjects there were only some 1161 single occurrences of abnormalities in the laboratory tests without clinical significance, 1162 except one instance of markedly increased ALT whereas Alkaline phosphatase, GGT, 1163 total bilirubin and CPK levels were at all times normal leading to the subject’s 1164 withdrawal. There were no indication for trends in the vital signs and ECGs compared to 1165 placebo. 1166 1167 Interestingly, RO4917523 at 0.25 mg b.i.d was better tolerated when administered in the 1168 fed state compared to the fasted state, in particular with respect to psychiatric or CNS 1169 adverse events. This was possibly due to the lower exposure to the study drug, measured 1170 in this group compared to the corresponding fasted cohort. Indeed Cmax and AUC0-τ on

CNS AEs were 1180 more commonly reported under alcohol alone (17), followed by the combined treatment 1181 (13) and then RO4917523 alone (7). Gastrointestinal disorders (dry mouth, nausea) were 1182 more frequently reported with the combination (8), followed by RO4917523 alone (5). 1183 The intensity of these AEs was mostly mild, 6 AEs were recorded as moderate (3 with 1184 combined treatment with RO4917523 and alcohol, 2 with RO4917523 alone), 1 with 1185 alcohol alone, and none were severe. The 3 AEs of moderate intensity after combined 1186 treatment with RO4917523 and alcohol were dizziness, nausea and vomiting. These AEs 1187 were resolved without sequelae within 5 minutes. The 3 other AEs of moderate intensity 1188 were gastroenteritis, joint dislocation (RO4917523 alone) and headache (alcohol alone) 1189 and were considered as unrelated to treatment. 1190 1191 1192 1193 1.3.1.6 Phase 2a Study in Treatment-Resistant Depression 1194 NP22022 was a phase 2a, adaptive fixed dose, randomized, double-blind, parallel-group, 1195 placebo-controlled study of the safety and therapeutic effects of RO4917523 in patients 1196 with treatment-resistant depression. A total of 46 patients received either placebo, 1197 RO4917523 0.1 mg, 0.5 mg, 1.0 mg, or 1.5 mg given once daily with food for 10 days. 1198 The unblinded safety data from this study reveal that the treatments were well tolerated. 1199 ‘Non-serious’ adverse events and changes in vital signs were not clinically significant, 1200 and any changes in laboratory parameters were either not clinically significant or were 1201 reversible. Two serious adverse events (suicidal ideation and a suicide attempt) occurred 1202 in one patient taking 0.5 mg/day, whose medical history contained similar events. 1203 1204 Based upon some neuropsychiatric events observed in Phase I studies, close attention was 1205 given to the reporting of all psychotomimetic adverse events in NP22022. Importantly, no 1206 clinically significant changes were reported in a subscale of the BPRS score (including 1207 the four items Conceptual Disorganization, Hallucinatory Behavior, Suspiciousness, 1208 Unusual Thought Content), confirming the absence of psychotic related events. In 1209 addition, no clinically significant changes were reported in the YMRS ‘elevated mood’ 1210 item score, confirming that events related to elevation of mood or euphoria have not been 1211 observed. Only insomnia, abnormal dreams and nightmares were reported as psychiatric 1212 adverse events, allowing us to conclude that the compound has been generally well 1213 tolerated in this population. 1214 1215 1.3.1.7 Phase 2a Study in Fragile X Syndrome 1216 NP22578 is an ongoing study in adult patients with Fragile X Syndrome. 40 patients have 1217 completed 42 days of treatment with RO4917523 in an outpatient setting (IND 103,917, 1218 S-000). The compound was overall well tolerated and safe. One case of auditory 1219 hallucinations and one case of catatonia were reported (in the 0.5 mg/day dose cohort); 1220 the symptoms were completely resolved after discontinuation without sequelae, and no 1221 other psychotomimetic adverse events were observed in the higher dose cohorts of 1.0

The linearity was 1227 confirmed in the MAD study where, on the first day, in the fed state, exposure after 1228 0.5 mg b.i.d. was approximately double to that after 0.25 mg b.i.d. When the immediate 1229 release formulation is administered maximum plasma concentrations are reached in 1230 approximately 1 h (fasted state) to 2-3 h (fed state), and thereafter the concentrations 1231 decline in a triphasic manner. The estimate of the terminal elimination half-life by non 1232 compartmental analysis is approximately 30-70 hours after single dose and 50-100 hours 1233 after reaching steady-state. The compartmental analysis used in the population PK

Food had no 1241 significant effect on exposure (AUC) calculated after single dose, however higher 1242 exposure was noted after multiple b.i.d. administration in the fasted state as compared to 1243 fed state (1.7-fold higher AUC0-τ on Day 14). 1244 1245 Concomitant alcohol intake had no relevant effect on the exposure of RO4917523, and 1246 vice versa. 1247 1248 There is a gender effect on RO4917523 pharmacokinetics; in general exposure is higher 1249 in women. In the alcohol interaction study there was 2.4- and 1.4-fold higher AUClast and 1250 Cmax values respectively in females compared to males, following a single 0.5 mg 1251 RO4917523 dose. There was a trend for higher exposure and longer half-life in females 1252 than in males in the multiple dose study. In the relative bioavailability study comparing 1253 an optimized formulation of matrix tablet to the reference capsule formulation, AUClast 1254 was estimated as 3.45 times higher in a small sample of 6 females and 15 males. 1255 However, considering the entire population of female and male subjects, the population 1256 PK analysis estimates the gender effect as AUC female = 1.55 x AUC male. 1257 1258 The strong CYP3A4 inhibitor ketoconazole (single 200 mg dose) had no significant 1259 effect on the exposure (Cmax or AUC) to a single 0.15 or 0.25 mg dose of RO4917523. In 1260 a dedicated drug-drug interaction study ketoconazole 400 mg once daily was given four 1261 days prior to a single dose of 0.25 mg RO4917523 and during 14 subsequent days. The 1262 exposure ratio was 130% on AUC0-312h (90% CI = 122-139) and 102% on Cmax 1263 (90% CI = 94-111). It can be concluded that ketoconazole at steady-state and 1264 administered during a large part of RO4917523 elimination phase, had a modest 1265 inhibitory effect on RO4917523 clearance. 1266 1267 1.3.3 Pharmacodynamics 1268 The effects of RO4917523 on psychomotor and cognitive functions were assessed in 1269 healthy volunteers, using computerized psychometric tests batteries, Bond Lader visual 1270 analogue scale (VAS), of mood, alertness, and attention (computerized version), and 1271 ARCI-49 questionnaire. 1272 1273 • RO4917523 appeared to induce some impairment in the psychomotor and 1274 cognitive tests especially in the learning memory test (LMT), body sway, and tests 1275 of frontal/executive functions such as choice reaction time (CRT), rapid visual 1276 information processing (RVIP), and digit symbol substitution test (DSST). The 1277 degree was dose proportional and relatively modest at doses below 1 mg. 1278 • Impairment in cognitive performances noted after single administration of 0.5 mg 1279 were not present when this dose was administered repeatedly, indicating the 1280 development of tolerance to the effects of RO4917523.

Downloaded From: https://jamanetwork.com/ on 09/29/2021 1281 1282 1283 • In the MAD study, tests indicative of CNS mediated sedation, such as critical 1284 flicker fusion test (CFF) and saccadic eye movement (SEM) did not produce any 1285 statistically significant changes compared to placebo except for SEM at the 1286 highest tested dose (2 mg b.i.d.) only. 1287 • Overall, there was no potentiation of the effects when a 0.5 mg single dose was 1288 co-administered with alcohol (0.5g/kg). Additive effects were noted on some 1289 CNS parameters, principally assessing sedation and information processing. 1290 1291 There was no evidence of an analgesic effect in the intradermal capsaicin test performed 1292 in the MAD study. The low number of control placebo subjects limited the interpretation 1293 of the finding. 1294 1295 The effects of RO4917523 on postural stability were assessed in healthy volunteers using 1296 body sway tests. In the SAD study, the body sway test revealed an ataxic effect, which 1297 was only significant at doses higher than 1 mg and only when the tests were performed 1298 with the eyes closed, a condition which amplifies postural imbalance. There was no 1299 evidence of an effect of formulation (IR vs. MR) on postural stability. 1300 1301 1.4 Rationale for the Study and Overall Risk-Benefit 1302 Assessment 1303 Evidence of the potential benefit of RO4917523 in the treatment of depressive episodes 1304 has been substantiated based on: (1) the effect of the compound in preclinical models of 1305 depression, (2) the clinically reported antidepressant effect of several agents that 1306 modulate the glutamatergic neurotransmitter system (ketamine, riluzole, lamotrigine), 1307 and (3) the phenomenological analogy between the side effect profile observed during the 1308 phase I studies with RO4917523 and the side effect profile observed with ketamine, 1309 particularly on the psychotomimetic events of ideation and perception. The study design 1310 rationale can be found in the sections 3.1.1 and 3.1.2. Taking these factors in 1311 consideration, the safety of RO4917523 was recently investigated in a study of patients 1312 with treatment resistant depression (1.3.1.6) which showed that the medication was 1313 overall safe and well tolerated (see study NP22022 in Investigator’s Brochure for 1314 additional details). 1315 1316 As previously mentioned, there is a clear unmet medical need to provide more effective 1317 therapeutics to patients that have failed to respond to antidepressant treatments which are 1318 currently available. In fact, it has been shown that response and remission rates continue 1319 to decline with each successive antidepressant treatment in depressed patients [4]. Would 1320 it be acceptable to evaluate RO4917523 tolerability in the context of providing a possible 1321 resolution of symptoms that is often elusive with conventional therapeutics? Based on the 1322 accumulated clinical experience with RO4917523 (up to 1.5 mg/day in patients), Roche 1323 considers that the expected benefit for improving the efficacy of treatments in this 1324 population outweigh the potential risk associated with this experimental intervention, 1325 provided that sufficient safety monitoring is maintained during the study. That is to say, 1326 there is a positive benefit-risk assessment to studying the efficacy of RO4917523 in 1327 depressed outpatients who have failed to respond to ongoing antidepressant therapy.

STUDY DESIGN 1402 1403 3.1 Overview of Study Design and Dosing Regimen 1404 This is a phase 2, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group, 1405 multi-center study that will evaluate two fixed doses of RO4917523 versus placebo as 1406 adjunctive treatment for six weeks in patients with major depressive disorder with 1407 inadequate response to ongoing antidepressant therapy. Patients must have had at least 1408 one but no more than three treatment failures (of adequate dose and duration according to 1409 the Massachusetts General Hospital Antidepressant Treatment History Questionnaire 1410 [MGH ATRQ]); failure to ongoing antidepressant treatment in the current episode is 1411 counted as one treatment failure. Further details are provided in section 4.2 Inclusion 1412 Criteria. 1413 1414 Following screening procedures to confirm eligibility, patients on ongoing antidepressant 1415 therapy will be randomized to one of the three treatment arms: a) RO4917523 0.5 mg, 1416 b) RO4917523 1.5 mg, or c) placebo, once daily. 1417 1418 The total duration of the study for each patient will be approximately 2 and a half 1419 months, divided as follows: 1420 1421 • Screening Period: up to 14 days 1422 • 6-Week Double-blind Treatment Period 1423 • Follow-up period: 21 days

To establish a 1474 basal level of treatment resistance, the patients must have had at least one (of adequate 1475 dose and duration according to the MGH ATRQ) but no more than three treatment 1476 failures. 1477 1478 In order to enhance the effect of antidepressant treatments for patients with 1479 inadequate response, several clinical strategies are utilized. Note that these 1480 strategies may or may not be approved as safe and efficacious by health authorities 1481 and should be checked with local regulations before its utilization. They include 1482 among others, the addition of a new antidepressant from a different class or 1483 mechanism of action, the addition of new generation antipsychotics, potentiation 1484 with thyroid hormones, or potentiation with lithium. In this context, this study will 1485 help us to understand if RO4917523 added to the ongoing antidepressant 1486 medication (SSRI/SNRI only) is efficacious in the treatment of depressive symptoms 1487 and if it is safe and well tolerated. 1488 1489 As mentioned, the safety of RO4917523 has been recently investigated in a study of 1490 patients with treatment resistant depression (1.3.1.6) showing that the medication was 1491 overall safe and well tolerated (see study NP22022 in Investigator’s Brochure for details). 1492 As there is a clear unmet medical need to provide improved therapeutics to these patients, 1493 this study aims to investigate the effects RO4917523 in addition to the medication on 1494 which the patients have failed to adequately respond. This study will employ a placebo 1495 controlled design, in order to minimize the effect that the expectation of receiving an 1496 efficacious treatment may have in caregivers and patients alike. Moreover, the adjunctive 1497 efficacy of RO4917523 on SSRI or SNRI antidepressant treatment will also be CONFIDENTIAL Roche Protocol NP25620 C (RO4917523) - Page34

Downloaded From: https://jamanetwork.com/ on 09/29/2021 1498 1499 investigated with this design. It has been determined that patients who have failed to 1500 respond after six weeks of antidepressant treatment on SSRIs will achieve remission 1501 levels after twelve weeks with the sole continuation of the same antidepressant; in fact, 1502 up to 41% of the patients that were initially non-responders and 48% of those who were 1503 partial-responders at week six will achieve remission at week twelve [6]. 1504 1505 Experimental glutamatergic medications (NMDA antagonists) [2, 7] have been reported 1506 to produce a rapid antidepressant effect (e.g., during the first week of treatment) of 1507 adequate magnitude (comparable to the mean response reached after six weeks of 1508 treatment with available antidepressants) in a population of depressed patients who have 1509 previously failed to respond to adequate treatments. We are investigating how quickly 1510 and robust an antidepressant effect can be detected or observed once RO4917523 has 1511 been initiated within the 42 days timeframe of blinded treatment. This timeframe 1512 1) would allow a determination of the clinical relevance in the efficacy outcome 1513 measures, and 2) would also allow the continued characterization of the safety and 1514 tolerability profile of RO4917523 in this population. 1515 1516 A 21 day post treatment follow-up period would allow for the duration and persistence of 1517 the therapeutic effect to be tracked, as well as to monitor residual adverse events or newly 1518 emerging adverse events. This period exceeds five times the effective half-life of 1519 RO4917523 (76 hr in woman and 45 hr in man on average, respectively) and even five 1520 times the terminal half-life of RO4917523 (93 hr in woman and 63 hr in man on average, 1521 respectively) within which 97% of the compound is eliminated following discontinuation. 1522 1523 3.1.2 Rationale for Dose Selection 1524 The proposed doses for this study have been selected based on the safety and tolerability 1525 observations from the study NP22022 in treatment resistant depression and from the 1526 study NP22578 in Fragile X Syndrome, in which doses of RO4917523 ranging from 1527 0.1 mg/day to 1.5 mg/day were studied. 1528 1529 Close attention was given to the reporting of all psychotomimetic adverse events in the 1530 NP22022 study, in which 46 patients received either RO4917523 or placebo in an 1531 inpatient setting for 10 days. Very importantly, hallucinations, effects on mood 1532 (e.g., dysphoria or euphoria), and delusions (e.g., paranoid ideation), were not reported 1533 during the study. Only insomnia, abnormal dreams and nightmares were reported as 1534 psychiatric adverse events, allowing us to conclude that the compound has been generally 1535 well tolerated in this population. Furthermore, no cases of increased psychotic or manic 1536 symptoms were reported or detected. 1537 1538 In the NP22578 study in Fragile X Syndrome, 38 patients completed 42 days of treatment 1539 with RO4917523 in an outpatient setting. The compound has been overall well tolerated 1540 and safe.

Downloaded From: https://jamanetwork.com/ on 09/29/2021 1733 1734 1735 4.4.3 Prohibited Medications 1736 All other psychotropic medications (with the exception of those allowed in 4.4.1) are 1737 prohibited starting two weeks before randomization (or a period equivalent to 5 half lives 1738 for that medication, which ever is longer). These include: 1739 1740 • Fluvoxamine 1741 • Non-SSRI or non-SNRI antidepressants (including St. John’s Wort) 1742 • Antipsychotics 1743 • Psychostimulants 1744 • Lithium 1745 • Thyroid hormone used for antidepressant potentiation 1746 • Opioid analgesics 1747 • Anticonvulsant medications utilized as mood stabilizers, adjunctive, or 1748 potentiating antidepressant treatment 1749 • GABAergic drugs including: tiagabine, vigabatrin, baclofen, pregabalin and 1750 gabapentin 1751 • Glutamatergic drugs including: riluzole, topiramate, memantine, lamotrigine 1752 • Herbal supplements 1753 • Omega-3 fatty acids (i.e. fish oil and flaxseed oil) 1754 • Magnesium supplements 1755 • Dextromethorphan 1756 • All other psychotropic drugs 1757 1758 1759 4.5 Criteria for Premature Withdrawal 1760 Patients have the right to withdraw from the study at any time for any reason. 1761 1762 In the case that the patient decides to prematurely discontinue study treatment [“refuses 1763 treatment”], he/she should be asked if he/she can still be contacted for further 1764 information. The outcome of that discussion should be documented in both the medical 1765 records and in the CRF. If lost to follow-up, the investigator should contact the patient 1766 or a responsible relative by telephone followed by registered mail or through a personal 1767 visit to establish as completely as possible the reason for the withdrawal. A complete 1768 final evaluation at the time of the patient’s withdrawal should be made with an 1769 explanation of why the patient is withdrawing from the study. 1770 1771 When applicable, patients should be informed of circumstances under which their 1772 participation may be terminated by the investigator without the patient’s consent. The 1773 investigator may withdraw patients from the study in the event of intercurrent illness, 1774 adverse events, treatment failure after a prescribed procedure, lack of compliance with 1775 the study and/or study procedures (e.g., dosing instructions, study visits), or any reason 1776 where it is felt by the investigator that it is in the best interest of the patient to be 1777 terminated from the study. In particular, the investigator should consider 1778 withdrawing a patient due to ‘lack of response with persistence of unpleasant 1779 symptoms’ if such symptoms are deemed unsafe or intolerable by the investigator or 1780 the patient. Any administrative or other reasons for withdrawal must be documented and 1781 explained to the patient.

Downloaded From: https://jamanetwork.com/ on 09/29/2021 1782 1783 The investigator may also withdraw a patient in case of evidence of suicidal ideation, 1784 behavior or risk revealed by the Columbia-Suicide Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS) at 1785 any time during the study. A confirmed positive finding on the C-SSRS, as defined in 1786 section 5.5.4.3 (e.g., a “yes” to question 4, indicating suicidal ideation with intention 1787 to act), will warrant discontinuation of the patient from the study. The reasons for 1788 withdrawal must be documented and explained to the patient. 1789 1790 In addition, as an additional safeguard, according to the FDA’s “Guidance for 1791 Industry – Drug-Induced Liver Injury: Premarketing Clinical Evaluation” (June 1792 2009), discontinuation of treatment should be considered if patients exceed the 1793 following liver function test threshold values: 1794 1795 o ALT or AST >8xULN 1796 o ALT or AST >5xULN for more than 2 weeks 1797 o ALT or AST >3xULN and (Serum Total Bilirubin >2xULN or INR 1798 >1.5)*. 1799 o ALT or AST >3xULN with the appearance of fatigue, nausea, vomiting, 1800 right upper quadrant pain or tenderness, fever, rash, and/or eosinophilia 1801 (>5%)*. 1802 1803 *Note that if ALT or AST >3xULN, the investigator should perform INR testing via local lab to 1804 ensure that the threshold condition is comprehensively assessed. 1805 1806 Whether the decision to discontinue is made by the patient or by the investigator, an 1807 accurate and detailed description of the reason for discontinuation should be captured in 1808 the eCRF. If the reason for removal of a patient from the study is an Adverse Event, the 1809 principal specific event will be recorded on the eCRF. The patient should be followed 1810 until the Adverse Event has resolved, if possible. 1811 1812 An excessive rate of withdrawals can render the study non-interpretable; therefore, 1813 unnecessary withdrawal of patients should be avoided. Should a patient decide to 1814 withdraw, all efforts will be made to complete and report the observations prior to 1815 withdrawal as thoroughly as possible. If a patient withdraws from the study early, an 1816 attempt should be made to complete all study assessments listed under End-of-treatment 1817 in the Schedule of Assessments Section 5, on the last day of study medication dosing or 1818 as soon as feasible after that. 1819 1820 4.5.1 Withdrawal Of Patients From the Roche Clinical Repository (RCR) 1821 Patients who gave consent to provide RCR specimens have the right to withdraw their 1822 specimen from the RCR at any time for any reason. If a patient wishes to withdraw 1823 his/her consent to the testing of his/her specimen(s), the investigator must inform the 1824 Roche monitor in writing of the patient’s wishes using the RCR Subject Withdrawal 1825 Form and enter the date of withdrawal in the patient’s Case Report Form (CRF). A 1826 patient withdrawal from the main trial does not, by itself, constitute withdrawal of the 1827 specimen from the RCR, likewise a patient withdrawal from the RCR does not constitute 1828 a withdrawal from the main trial.

All baseline assessments must be conducted within 24 hours and prior to administration of the first 1857 dose of study medication. 1858 2). Patients will complete the DxV-MDD computer-administered diagnostic interview prior to the MINI, 1859 when available. 1860 3). A complete physical examination will be performed at screening and week 6 (end-of-treatment). 1861 Height will be collected only at screening. 1862 4). 30 minutes should elapse between the last venipuncture and the measurement of vital signs and ECG. 1863 ECG is conducted after remaining in the semi supine position for at least 10 minutes. 1864 5). All ECGs will consist of three consecutive interpretable ECG recordings (as close as possible, and not 1865 more than 2 minutes apart). 1866 6). In addition to the rater-administered MADRS, the MADRS assessment will also be completed by the 1867 patient via a computer supplied by a central vendor, when available. The central vendor will be 1868 blinded to study treatment. The rater’s MADRS score will be entered onto the central vendor’s 1869 computer system. 1870 7). If double-blind treatment is discontinued early, the ‘end-of-treatment visit’ should be performed as 1871 soon as possible (“early discontinuation visit”). One PK sample will be taken at any time during the 1872 “early discontinuation visit.” A ‘follow-up visit’ should be conducted 21 days afterwards and no PK 1873 sample taken. 1874 8). The ‘C-SSRS baseline’ will be administered at screening. The ‘C-SSRS since last visit’ will be 1875 administered at subsequent visits (including the baseline). 1876 9). At these visits, PK sampling performed at 0 (pre-dose) and 4 hours (according to patient availability). 1877 10). At these visits, an additional PK sample performed at 6 hours (according to patient availability).

The CANTAB at screening is administered to patients with confirmed eligibility (pending only 1883 laboratory results). 1884 13). After informed consent, but prior to initiation of study medication (i.e. during screening), only SAEs 1885 caused by a protocol-mandated intervention will be collected (e.g., SAEs related to invasive 1886 procedures). 1887 1888 5.1 Screening Period 1889 1890 5.1.1 Informed Consent Form (ICF) 1891 All patients must sign and date the most current IRB/IEC-approved written informed 1892 consent before any study specific assessments or procedures are performed. 1893 Documentation of informed consent must be kept in the patients’ study medical records. 1894 The original informed consent document will be retained by the investigator. 1895 1896 5.1.2 Screening 1897 The study center will access an Interactive Voice Response System/Interactive Web 1898 Response System (IVRS) to register the patient into screening. Screening procedures 1899 should be performed within a period of time not exceeding 14 days (see required 1900 assessments in Table 1). The screening period may be extended by the PI in consultation 1901 with the Sponsor/Medical Monitor. 1902 1903 Patients who fail to meet eligibility criteria may be screened again at a later date after 1904 consultation with the Sponsor/Medical Monitor. 1905 1906 Once all inclusion and exclusion criteria are met, an Eligibility Screening 1907 Form/Eligibility Assessment Form (ESF/EAF) is completed by the investigator and sent 1908 to the Sponsor/Medical Monitor for approval of the patient to participate in the study. 1909 The Sponsor/Medical Monitor will confirm the patient’s eligibility in IVRS and notify 1910 the site. 1911 1912 A screen failure log must be maintained by the investigator. 1913 1914 5.2 Procedures for Randomization of Eligible Patients 1915 In order to be enrolled into the double-blind treatment period, patients must have: 1916 1917 – No significant risk of suicidal behavior (e.g., consider the Suicidal Ideation section of 1918 the C-SSRS “Since Last Visit” for this evaluation) 1919 1920 – No significant change in medical or psychiatric condition, or change in medications 1921 since screening (as agreed with the Sponsor/Medical Monitor when appropriate) 1922 1923 – Negative result on the Baseline pregnancy test (if applicable) 1924 1925 – No change in ongoing antidepressant therapy, and the ability to continue for the 1926 duration of the double-blind treatment period without modification to the dosing 1927 schedule 1928 1929 – An EAF approved by the Sponsor/Medical Monitor

Downloaded From: https://jamanetwork.com/ on 09/29/2021 1930 1931 The Double-blind Treatment Period begins with the investigational site call into IVRS 1932 confirming the patient’s eligibility as per the ESF/EAF. The patient will be randomized 1933 and receive their first dose of study medication on Day 1. 1934 1935 The patient randomization numbers will be generated by Roche or its designee. The 1936 treatment allocation will be stratified by geographical region/country, as follows: 1937 Europe, United States, Latin America, Asia (excluding Japan) and Japan. 1938 1939 The patient randomization numbers are to be allocated sequentially in the order in which 1940 the patients are enrolled according to the specification document agreed with the IVRS 1941 vendor. A patient Enrollment and Identification Code List must be maintained by the 1942 investigator. 1943 1944 5.3 Double-blind Treatment Period 1945 Dose 1 of the blinded study medication is to be administered in the clinic immediately 1946 after a meal and before 12 pm (noon), or soon thereafter upon consultation with the 1947 Sponsor/Medical Monitor, once all baseline procedures and assessments (Table 1) are 1948 completed. Patients will remain at the clinic for 6 hours after the first dose for safety 1949 monitoring and for the PK samples (according to clinical observation and patient 1950 availability). Subsequently, dosing will be once daily in the morning immediately after 1951 breakfast. 1952 1953 As with any experimental drug at this stage of development, it is advisable for patients 1954 not to drive or operate dangerous machinery until known side effects (e.g., dizziness and 1955 somnolence) can be adequately assessed on an individual basis during the trial. 1956 1957 At Day 11, telephone contact with the patient by a clinician is required to monitor 1958 for the emergence of any clinically significant adverse events. 1959 1960 Patients will arrive at each study visit without having taken their daily dose of study 1961 medication, and site staff will record the time of their last dose. Following collection of 1962 the pre-dose PK blood sample (if applicable) and a meal, patients will take their next dose 1963 of study medication before 12 pm (noon) or soon thereafter upon consultation with the 1964 Sponsor/Medical Monitor. The last dose of study medication will be administered on Day 1965 42 (End-of-Treatment visit). 1966 1967 5.4 Follow-up Period 1968 A single Follow-up visit will be performed 21 days after the End-of-Treatment visit 1969 (see Table 1). During the follow-up period, adjustments to antidepressant treatments may 1970 be initiated if deemed necessary by the investigator. 1971 1972 5.5 Clinical Assessments and Procedures 1973 1974 5.5.1 Rater Selection and Training 1975 To be considered as a rater in this study, a member of the site staff must be a physician, a 1976 nurse with certifiable psychiatric practice, or a clinical psychologist. Qualified nurses and 1977 clinical psychologists must have a minimum of two years experience administering 1978 standardized rating scales. (participation of raters with different qualifications should be 1979 agreed upon with the Sponsor/Medical Monitor on a case by case basis).

This will include 1988 documentation of previous treatment for major depression and medication regimens and 1989 changes. Previous psychiatric hospitalizations and out-patient treatment should also be 1990 noted. 1991 1992 5.5.2.2 Massachusetts General Hospital Antidepressant Treatment 1993 History Questionnaire (MGH ATRQ) 1994 The MGH ATRQ is a patient-completed instrument used to determine treatment 1995 resistance in major depressive disorder [8, 9]. A clinician may assist the patient to 1996 complete the instrument. The MGH ATRQ defines 6 weeks on a minimally acceptable 1997 dose of antidepressant medication as an adequate treatment duration. As noted in 1998 Inclusion criterion number 7, information regarding the ongoing antidepressant treatment 1999 must be verified by way of written documentation 2000 2001 5.5.2.3 Medical history and Physical examination 2002 The patient’s medical history will be taken during the screening period. A complete 2003 physical exam will be performed at screening and Week 6. The patient’s height will be 2004 recorded at screening only. 2005 2006 For pre-menopausal females, menstrual status will be recorded at each visit when a urine 2007 sample is collected. 2008 2009 5.5.2.4 Computer-Administered Diagnostic Interview 2010 Patients will be instructed to complete a computer-administered diagnostic interview 2011 (DxV-MDD) at the screening visit, when available. The DxV-MDD will collect data 2012 about the subjects’ history relative to lifetime history of MDD. Each site will be 2013 provided with a laptop computer that will record the subject’s responses to the 2014 computerized questionnaire. Each site will receive training on the use of the laptop and 2015 perform a secure data transmission test with the central vendor. 2016 2017 After the screening visit, the site will transfer the information collected by the laptop 2018 through a secure, encrypted sFTP connection. The subject’s responses will be evaluated 2019 by independent clinical experts at the central vendor. The details of the subject’s history 2020 will be evaluated by an independent MDD expert based on the responses to the 2021 computerized interview. To establish confidence in the diagnosis, any diagnostic 2022 uncertainty raised by the patient’s responses to the diagnostic interview must be resolved 2023 by the Investigator, in collaboration with a central vendor clinician. Patients for whom 2024 diagnostic agreement between the Investigator and the central vendor cannot be reached 2025 may not be considered appropriate for study participation2. 2026 2027 2028 2029 2030 2 If deemed appropriate according to local medical practices.

The MINI is a short, 2036 structured diagnostic interview designed to provide psychiatric diagnoses according to 2037 the DSM-IV and ICD-10 criteria. Thus it was intended to serve as a tool that could be 2038 applied internationally in such settings as multicenter clinical trials. 2039 2040 5.5.3 Efficacy 2041 The collection of efficacy assessments is detailed in the Schedule of Assessments 2042 [Table 1]. 2043 2044 5.5.3.1 Montgomery Asberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS) 2045 The MADRS [11] was designed to assess the overall severity of depressive symptoms in 2046 patients with major depressive disorder. The scale is also intended to be sensitive to 2047 treatment effects and to discriminate between medication versus placebo. The MADRS is 2048 a 10-item instrument. Items are rated on a scale of 0 to 6 with anchors at 2-point 2049 intervals; hence the total score ranges from 0 to 60. To improve the quality and 2050 consistency of the MADRS ratings across study centers, the MADRS-SIGMA (an 2051 interview guide which provides structured probes) will be utilized [12]. See Appendix 2052 [Appendix 3] for details. 2053 2054 This study will utilize a rater quality control system conducted by a central vendor, 2055 blinded to study treatments. The rater quality control system allows the study team to 2056 monitor the primary outcome measure at treatment phase assessments in the study and 2057 give ongoing feedback and remediation to the rater in the study, when necessary. 2058 2059 Each study site will be provided with a laptop computer containing the quality control 2060 system software, receive training on use of the laptop, and perform a secure server 2061 connection test with the central vendor. The rater will administer the MADRS to the 2062 subject per protocol procedures. The rater’s MADRS scores will be entered onto the 2063 laptop computer. Afterwards, the subject will complete an interactive interview on the 2064 computer (i.e., the computer-administered MADRS). The interview involves a series of 2065 probe and follow up questions with multiple choice response options (mean time for 2066 completion is < 10 minutes). Subjects will not be required to type any responses. 2067 2068 The subject responds to computer prompts presented. The laptop is not connected to the 2069 Internet during the interactive interview. The quality control system software restricts the 2070 user’s access to only the subject-user interface. The quality control system software 2071 places an unalterable time and date on each report which cannot be modified (meets 2072 requirement 21 CFR Part 11). The study assigned subject ID number is the only 2073 identifying information that is stored into the laptop computer and transmitted to the 2074 vendor; therefore, the vendor will be blinded to the study treatment. 2075 2076 After the subject’s visit, the site will transfer the information collected by the laptop 2077 through a secure, encrypted FTP connection (meets requirement 21 CFR Part 11). The 2078 transfer will be acknowledged to the site on the laptop screen. The information is stored 2079 on a password protected server that restricts access to registered users or IP addresses.

Downloaded From: https://jamanetwork.com/ on 09/29/2021 2080 2081 After the transfer, the information is analyzed by the vendor’s quality control system 2082 software. The vendor examines the subject’s interview responses and quality control 2083 system software ratings in parallel with the rater’s outcome measure scores and compares 2084 the two for consistency. If an individual report falls outside the study thresholds, the 2085 central vendor may schedule a structured review with the site rater to determine probable 2086 sources of the discordance. If a review is necessary, the central vendor will contact the 2087 site within five business days. The rater’s assigned scores are not altered by the review or 2088 any exchange with the central vendor. The central vendor will apply the same 2089 methodology for review at each study visit. 2090 2091 The rater quality control system maintains an ongoing performance profile for each rater. 2092 Quality issues are evaluated and corrected continuously throughout the study. Reports 2093 are updated continuously and available to the study team. 2094 2095 5.5.3.2 Clinical Global Impression- Severity (CGI-S) and Improvement 2096 (CGI-I) 2097 The CGI rating scales are tools used to evaluate both the severity of illness and change 2098 from baseline [13]. The CGI-S reflects the clinician’s impression of the patient’s current 2099 illness state on a 7-point scale ranging from no symptoms (1) to very severe (7). The 2100 CGI-I is used to assess the clinical change as compared to symptoms at baseline using a 2101 7-point scale, ranging from very much improved (1) to very much worse (7). In this 2102 study, overall clinical status will be evaluated with the CGI-S and CGI-I. See Appendix 4 2103 for details. 2104 2105 5.5.3.3 Patient Global Impression of Improvement (PGI-I) 2106 The PGI-I is a self reported instrument to record the patient’s own assessment of 2107 improvement since baseline. The patient is asked to rate their condition as compared to 2108 before they began study medication using a 7-point scale, ranging from very much better 2109 (1) to very much worse (7). The PGI-I is essentially a patient-reported version of the 2110 CGI-I. See Appendix 5 for details. 2111 2112 5.5.3.4 Cambridge Neuropsychological Test Automated Battery 2113 (CANTAB®) 2114 Cognitive performance will be assessed using the CANTAB® computerized battery 2115 provided by Cambridge Cognition™. The main cognitive domains known to be impaired 2116 in depression include memory, attention, executive function and speed of processing. A 2117 subset of the CANTAB® tests will be used to assess function in these domains: Motor 2118 Control Task (MOT), Rapid Visual Processing (RVP), Delayed Match to Sample (DMS), 2119 Emotional Recognition Task (ERT), -10 min break-, Paired Associates Learning (PAL), 2120 the Stockings of Cambridge (SOC, at screening) or the One-Touch Stockings of 2121 Cambridge (OTS, at subsequent visits), and Attention Shifting Test (AST). 2122 2123 During the screening period, the CANTAB battery will be administered to patients with 2124 confirmed eligibility (pending only laboratory results).

The scale assesses all of the symptom domains selected by DSM-IV to 2130 diagnose a major depressive episode. Each of the 16 items is scored on a 4-point 2131 anchored scale, representing least severe (0) to most severe (3). Specific instructions for 2132 calculating a total score are included in the scale. See Appendix 6 for details. 2133 2134 5.5.3.6 Quality of Life Enjoyment and Satisfaction Questionnaire- Short 2135 Form (Q-LES-Q-SF) 2136 The Q-LES-Q-SF [16] was developed to measure the degree of enjoyment and 2137 satisfaction experienced in various areas of daily life in a self-rated format. The 2138 instrument is intended to detect differences among groups of patients, as well as 2139 individual patients over time. The full version of the Q-LES-Q consists of 60 items, 2140 however the 16-item short form version will be utilized for this study. See Appendix 7 for 2141 details. 2142 2143 5.5.3.7 Sheehan Disability Scale (SDS) 2144 The SDS [17] is a combination of three self-rated items designed to measure the extent to 2145 which three major areas of a patient’s life are impaired by panic, phobic, anxiety, or 2146 depressive symptoms. The scale was developed as an outcome measure that would be 2147 sensitive to change and to differences over time when evaluating medication treatment 2148 versus placebo. The patient rates the extent to which his or her 1) work or school, 2149 2) social life or leisure activities, and 3) home life or family responsibilities have been 2150 impaired by symptoms, using a 10-point visual analog scale. See Appendix 8 for details. 2151 2152 5.5.4 Safety 2153 The safety and tolerability of RO4917523 will be assessed by monitoring vital signs, 2154 laboratory tests, ECGs, the emergence of symptoms/adverse events of interest and other 2155 adverse events as detailed in the Schedule of Assessments [Table 1]. For additional safety 2156 instructions and guidance, including Adverse Events (AEs) & Laboratory Abnormalities 2157 and Handling of Safety Parameters, refer to Section 7. 2158 2159 5.5.4.1 Brief Psychiatric Rating Scale (BPRS) 2160 A subscale (4 items) of the BPRS [18] will be completed only to follow up on treatment 2161 emergent psychotic-related and mania-related (mania or hypomania) adverse events. The 2162 symptom constructs included are conceptual disorganization, suspiciousness, 2163 hallucinatory behavior, and unusual thought content. See Appendix 9 for details. 2164 2165 5.5.4.2 Young Mania Rating Scale (YMRS) 2166 The YMRS [19], item 1 only for mood elevation will be completed only to follow up on 2167 treatment emergent psychotic-related and mania-related (mania or hypomania) adverse 2168 events.

The 2173 C-SSRS incorporates a structured interview to prompt recollection of suicidal ideation, 2174 including the intensity of the ideation, behavior and attempts with actual/potential 2175 lethality. A validated, self rated version of the C-SSRS, the eC-SSRS [20] will be used to 2176 capture these data via an interactive voice response telephone system. The eC-SSRS 2177 baseline version will be administered at screening and the C-SSRS since last visit version 2178 will be administered at subsequent visits, including the baseline visit (see [Table 1]). 2179 Training will be provided on the administration of the C-SSRS rating scale, and on the 2180 eC-SSRS system for patient use. 2181 2182 eC-SSRS Administration: During a visit, patients will be directed to a private, quiet place 2183 with a telephone to complete the assessment. This assessment should be conducted early 2184 in the visit to provide sufficient time for the report to be received at the study site prior to 2185 patient departure. At the conclusion of each assessment, the site will receive an eC-SSRS 2186 Findings Report via e-mail or fax. The report presents the findings for suicidal ideation, 2187 intensity of ideation, suicidal behavior, and lethality/medical damage (for actual suicide 2188 attempts only). 2189 2190 Positive reports are generated for ANY of the following findings: 2191 2192 • Suicidal ideation with intention to act 2193 • Suicidal ideation with specific plan and intent 2194 • Made suicide attempt 2195 • Interrupted suicide attempt 2196 • Aborted suicide attempt 2197 • Preparatory behaviors for making a suicide attempt 2198 2199 Negative suicidality indication reports are generated when there are NO indications of the 2200 above. 2201 2202 Positive Findings: Should the system report that the patient has a positive suicidal 2203 indication, the site will be immediately notified by a telephone call from the vendor, as 2204 well as by fax / email. The site staff should take appropriate steps to interview the 2205 patient, e.g. complete a clinician administered C-SSRS. Depending on the results of the 2206 interview, the patient may be referred to a psychiatrist for a follow-up evaluation. The 2207 patient should not be released from the evaluation site until it is confirmed that the call is 2208 complete, the report is reviewed and the patient is not considered to be at risk. Ultimately, 2209 the determination of suicidality and risk is up to the evaluation site’s clinical judgment. 2210 2211 Suicidality Monitoring Data: The eC-SSRS Findings Report will remain at the evaluation 2212 site as source data and the data will be sent by the vendor electronically for inclusion in 2213 the database. Any clinician administered C-SSRS will be kept at the site as source data 2214 and entered into the eCRF.

These 2305 specimens will be used for research purposes to identify dynamic biomarkers that are 2306 predictive of response to RO4917523 treatment (in terms of efficacy-dose, safety and 2307 tolerability) and will help to better understand the pathogenesis, course and outcome of 2308 depression and related diseases. To these ends analysis may include determination of 2309 markers of synaptic plasticity and glutamate signaling. Specimens for dynamic biomarker 2310 discovery will be single coded like any other clinical sample (labeled and tracked using 2311 the patient’s study identification number- see Section 17). 2312 2313 Specimens for genetic biomarker (B. inherited) discovery and validation will also be 2314 collected from consenting patients and where permissible with local regulations. The 2315 pharmacogenetic information gathered through the analysis of specimens in the Roche 2316 Clinical Repository (RCR) is hoped to improve patient outcome by predicting which 2317 patients are more likely to respond to specific drug therapies, predicting which patients 2318 are susceptible to developing adverse side effects and/or predicting which patients are 2319 likely to progress to more severe disease states. Such genetic samples collected for 2320 analysis of heritable DNA variations will be double coded: a new independent code will 2321 be added to the first code to increase confidentiality and data protection (see Section 17). 2322 2323 The results of specimen analysis from the RCR will facilitate the rational design of new 2324 pharmaceutical agents and the development of diagnostic tests, which may allow for 2325 individualized drug therapy for patients in the future. 2326 2327 All RCR specimens will be destroyed no later than 15 years after the final freeze of the 2328 respective clinical database unless regulatory authorities require that specimens be 2329 maintained for a longer period. The specimens in the RCR will be made available for 2330 future biomarker research towards further understanding of treatment with RO4917523, 2331 of depression, related diseases and adverse events, and for the development of potential 2332 associated diagnostic assays. The implementation and use of the RCR specimens is 2333 governed by the Roche Clinical Repository policy to ensure the appropriate use of the 2334 RCR specimens. 2335 2336 5.7.1 Specimen Types 2337 The biomarker sampling below is optional. Samples will be stored for exploratory 2338 analysis after the end of the study. 2339 2340 A. Non-inherited: 1. Plasma and serum at baseline and end of treatment = 4 samples 2341 2342 2.

The DNA will be 2399 used to explore whether genetic variants are related to the pharmacokinetic / 2400 pharmacodynamic behavior, or observations on the safety and efficacy of RO4917523 or 2401 the ongoing antidepressant medication for one or more of the following specific genes: 2402 the cytochrome P450 variant 1A2 gene (CYP1A2), the metabotropic glutamate receptor 5 2403 (GRM5), the serotonin 2A receptor (HTR2A), the serotonin transporter (SLC6A4), and 2404 brain derived neurotropic factor (BDNF). Data arising from this analysis will be subject 2405 to standard confidentiality and data protection. This specimen will be destroyed 2406 immediately after the analysis has been completed. See study Sample Collection, 2407 Handling and Logistics Manual for more details. 2408 2409 6. INVESTIGATIONAL MEDICINAL PRODUCT 2410 For the purposes of this study, the Investigational Medicinal Product (IMP) is defined as 2411 the supplied dosage form of RO4917523 or matching placebo provided during the 2412 randomized treatment period. Ongoing treatment with antidepressant medication of the 2413 SSRI or SNRI class is not considered IMP and will not be supplied. 2414 2415 6.1 Dose and Schedule of IMP 2416 The first dose of study medication (RO4917523 0.5 mg, RO4917523 1.5 mg, or placebo) 2417 will be on Day 1, after all baseline assessments and pre-dose PK sampling have been 2418 conducted, and after a meal. Study medication will be administered once a day in the 2419 morning immediately after breakfast. Each dose will consist of two capsules. 2420 2421 6.1.1 Dose Modifications, Interruptions and Delays 2422 If the patient accidentally or by intention consumes more of the study medication than 2423 directed they should be instructed to notify their PI immediately, who will in turn 2424 evaluate and implement the appropriate clinical care strategy necessary. 2425 2426 If dose schedule needs modification, prior approval of the sponsor/Medical Monitor 2427 should be obtained. This should be appropriately documented and every effort taken to 2428 assure the time of dosing be as consistent as possible for the duration of the study. 2429 2430 If patient accidentally forgets to take the medication, they should be instructed to inform 2431 the site PI who in turn may recommend the following schedule: 2432 2433 – If before 12 pm (noon) of the same day of the missing dose, instruct the patient to 2434 take the medication with food. 2435 2436 – If after 12 pm (noon) the same day of the missing dose, instruct the patient not to take 2437 the medication that day. The treatment will be reinitiated the next day according to 2438 schedule. Explicitly instruct the patient not to take the double of the dose the 2439 following day to prevent the patient from attempting to make up the skipped dose. 2440 2441 – If more than 24 hours have elapsed since last dose, study PI should contact the 2442 sponsor/Medical Monitor.

Downloaded From: https://jamanetwork.com/ on 09/29/2021 2479 2480 As per regulatory reporting requirement, Roche will unblind the identity of the study 2481 medication for all unexpected serious adverse events that are considered by the 2482 investigator to be related to study drug as per safety reference document(s), e.g., IB, 2483 CDS, SPC. Details of patients who are unblinded during the study will be included in the 2484 Clinical Study Report. 2485 2486 Unblinding for independent pharmacological analysis of biological samples, or ongoing 2487 safety monitoring by a Drug Safety Monitoring Board [DSMB], will be performed 2488 according to the sponsor’s internal procedures to ensure integrity of the data. 2489 2490 All other individuals directly involved in this study will remain blinded until the final 2491 analysis of the primary parameter. 2492 2493 The password-protected and/or encrypted electronic Master Randomization List is kept 2494 by the IVRS vendor in their secure system and is only accessible to the Randomization 2495 List Managers. No open key to the code will be available at the study center, to the 2496 Sponsor’s monitors, project statisticians, or to the project team at Roche or the CRO. 2497 2498 6.4 Accountability of IMP and Assessment of Compliance 2499 2500 6.4.1 Accountability of IMP 2501 The investigator is responsible for the control of drugs under investigation. Adequate 2502 records for the receipt (e.g. Drug Receipt Record) and disposition (e.g. Drug Dispensing 2503 Log) of the study drug must be maintained. Accountability will be assessed by maintaining 2504 adequate drug dispensing and return records. 2505 2506 Accurate records must be kept for each study drug provided by the sponsor. These 2507 records must contain the following: 2508 2509 • Documentation of drug shipments received from the sponsor (date received and 2510 quantity) 2511 • Disposition of unused study drug not dispensed to patient 2512 2513 A Drug Dispensing Log must be kept current and should contain the following 2514 information: 2515 2516 • the identification of the patient to whom the study medication was dispensed 2517 • the date[s], quantity of the study medication dispensed to the patient 2518 • the date[s] and quantity of the study medication returned by the patient 2519 2520 All records and drug supplies must be available for inspection by the Monitor at every 2521 monitoring visit. 2522 2523 Patients will be asked to return all used and unused drug supply containers at the end of 2524 the treatment as a measure of compliance.

Downloaded From: https://jamanetwork.com/ on 09/29/2021 2525 2526 When the study is terminated, the investigator will return any used and unused study drug 2527 (i.e. empty, partially used, and unused containers) to the Monitor. The completed Drug 2528 Dispensing Log and Drug Return Record(s) will be returned to Roche, unless alternate 2529 destruction has been authorized by Roche, or required by local or institutional 2530 regulations. (Section 6.5). The investigator's copy of the Drug Return Record(s) must 2531 accurately document the return of all study drug supplies to Roche. 2532 2533 6.4.2 Assessment of Compliance 2534 The investigator is responsible for ensuring that dosing is administered in compliance 2535 with the protocol. Delegation of this task must be clearly documented and approved by 2536 the investigator. 2537 2538 Accountability and patient compliance will be assessed by maintaining adequate drug 2539 dispensing and return records. Patients will be asked to return all used and unused drug 2540 supply containers at each study visit as a measure of compliance. 2541 2542 A Drug Dispensing Log must be kept current and should contain the following 2543 information: 2544 2545 • the identification of the patient to whom the study medication was dispensed 2546 • the date[s], quantity of the study medication dispensed to the patient 2547 • the date[s] and quantity of the study medication returned by the patient 2548 2549 This inventory must be available for inspection by the monitor. All supplies, including 2550 partially used or empty containers and the dispensing logs, must be returned to the 2551 monitor at the end of the study. 2552 2553 6.5 Destruction of the IMP/Comparator 2554 Local or institutional regulations may require immediate destruction of used 2555 investigational medicinal product (IMP) for safety reasons. In these cases, it may be 2556 acceptable for investigational site staff to destroy dispensed IMP before a monitoring 2557 inspection provided that source document verification is performed on the remaining 2558 inventory and reconciled against the documentation of quantity shipped, dispensed, 2559 returned and destroyed. Written authorization must be obtained from the sponsor at study 2560 start up before destruction. 2561 2562 If there are any issues with the drug it should be returned to the appropriate Roche 2563 clinical trial supplies department for long-term storage and not destroyed. 2564 2565 Written documentation of destruction must contain the following: 2566 2567 – Identity [batch numbers or subject numbers]of IMP[s] destroyed 2568 2569 – Quantity of IMP[s]destroyed 2570 2571 – Date of destruction 2572 2573 – Method of destruction

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS AND GUIDANCE 2579 2580 7.1 Adverse Events (AEs) and Laboratory Abnormalities 2581 2582 7.1.1 Clinical AEs 2583 According to the International Conference of Harmonization [ICH], an AE is any 2584 untoward medical occurrence in a patient or clinical investigation subject administered a 2585 pharmaceutical product and which does not necessarily have a causal relationship with 2586 this treatment. An AE can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign [including 2587 an abnormal laboratory finding], symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use 2588 of a medicinal [investigational] product, whether or not considered related to the 2589 medicinal [investigational] product. Pre-existing conditions which worsen during a study 2590 are to be reported as AEs. 2591 2592 7.1.1.1 Intensity 2593 All clinical AEs encountered during the clinical study will be reported on the AE form of 2594 the CRF. Intensity of AEs will be graded on a three-point scale [mild, moderate, or 2595 severe] and reported in detail on the CRF. 2596 Mild discomfort noticed but no disruption of normal daily activity. Moderate discomfort sufficient to reduce or affect daily activity. Severe inability to work or perform normal daily activity

2597 2598 2599 7.1.1.2 Drug - Adverse event relationship 2600 Relationship of the AE to the treatment should always be assessed by the investigator. 2601 2602 7.1.1.3 Serious Adverse Events [Immediately Reportable to Roche] 2603 A Serious Adverse Event is any experience that suggests a significant hazard, 2604 contraindication, side effect or precaution. It is any AE that at any dose fulfils at least 2605 one of the following criteria: 2606 2607 – is fatal; [results in death**; NOTE: death is an outcome, not an event] 2608 2609 – is Life-Threatening [NOTE: the term "Life-Threatening" refers to an event in which 2610 the subject was at immediate risk of death at the time of the event; it does not refer to 2611 an event which could hypothetically have caused a death had it been more severe] 2612 2613 – requires in-patient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization 2614 2615 – results in persistent or significant disability/incapacity 2616 2617 – is a congenital anomaly/birth defect

The terms death and sudden death are clearly distinct and must not be used 2624 interchangeably. 2625 2626 The study will comply with all local regulatory requirements and adhere to the full 2627 requirements of the ICH Guideline for Clinical Safety Data Management, Definitions 2628 and Standards for Expedited Reporting, Topic E2. 2629 2630 7.1.2 Treatment and Follow-up of AEs 2631 AEs, especially those for which the relationship to study medication(s) is not “unrelated”, 2632 should be followed up until they have returned to baseline status or stabilized. If after 2633 follow-up, return to baseline status or stabilization cannot be established an explanation 2634 should be recorded on the CRF. 2635 2636 7.1.3 Laboratory Test Abnormalities 2637 Laboratory test results will be provided to the sites as faxed reports from the central 2638 laboratory vendor. 2639 2640 Any laboratory result abnormality fulfilling the criteria for a serious adverse event [SAE] 2641 should be reported as such, in addition to being recorded as an AE in the CRF. 2642 2643 Any treatment-emergent abnormal laboratory result which is clinically significant, 2644 i.e., meeting one or more of the following conditions, should be recorded as a single 2645 diagnosis on the AE form in the CRF: 2646 2647 • Accompanied by clinical symptoms 2648 • Leading to a change in study medication [e.g. dose modification, interruption or 2649 permanent discontinuation] 2650 • Requiring a change in concomitant therapy [e.g. addition of, interruption of, 2651 discontinuation of, or any other change in a concomitant medication, therapy or 2652 treatment]. 2653 This applies to any protocol and non-protocol specified safety and efficacy laboratory 2654 result from tests performed after the first dose of study medication, which falls outside 2655 the laboratory reference range and meets the clinical significance criteria. 2656 2657 This does not apply to any abnormal laboratory result which falls outside the laboratory 2658 reference range but which does not meet the clinical significance criteria [these will be 2659 analyzed and reported as laboratory abnormalities]; those which are considered AEs of 2660 the type explicitly exempted by the protocol; or those which are a result of an AE which 2661 has already been reported. 2662 2663 7.1.3.1 Follow-up of Abnormal Laboratory Test Values 2664 In the event of medically significant unexplained abnormal laboratory test values, the 2665 tests should be repeated and followed up until they have returned to the normal range 2666 and/or an adequate explanation of the abnormality is found. If a clear explanation is 2667 established it should be recorded on the CRF.

As with all assessments, eCRF completion begins when the patient is 2674 randomized in the study. For screen failure patients, the adverse events will only be 2675 recorded in source documents. 2676 2677 7.2.1.1 Recording of AEs related to Patient-Reported Outcomes 2678 AE reports will not be derived from PRO data. If during site review of the completed 2679 PRO questionnaires a possible AE is identified, site staff will alert the investigator to 2680 determine if the criteria for an AE has been met (as described in section 7.1). 2681 2682 7.2.2 Reporting of Serious Adverse Events [immediately reportable] 2683 Any clinical AE or abnormal laboratory test value that is serious [as defined in 2684 Section 7.1.1.3 above] and which occurs during the course of the study, regardless of the 2685 treatment arm, occurring from the enrollment visit (start of study screening procedures), 2686 must be reported to Roche within one working day of the investigator becoming aware 2687 of the event [expedited reporting]. The investigator must complete the SAE Reporting 2688 Form [gcp_for000031] and forward it to the SAE Responsible. 2689 2690 Additionally, after the informed consent has been signed, but prior to initiation of study 2691 medications, only SAEs caused by a protocol-mandated intervention will be collected 2692 (e.g., SAEs related to invasive procedures or medication washout). After first study 2693 medication, all SAEs must be reported. 2694 2695 Related Serious Adverse Events MUST be collected and reported regardless of the time 2696 elapsed from the last study drug administration, even if the study has been closed. 2697 Suspected Unexpected Serious Adverse Reactions (SUSARs) are reported to 2698 investigators at each site and associated IRB/IEC when the following conditions occur: 2699 2700 • The event must be a SAE. 2701 • There must be a certain degree of probability that the event is an adverse reaction 2702 from the administered drug. 2703 • The adverse reaction must be unexpected, that is to say, not foreseen in the SPC text 2704 (Summary of Product Characteristics (for an authorized medicinal product) or the 2705 Investigator’s Brochure (for an unauthorized medicinal product). 2706 2707 When all patients at a particular site are off treatment as defined by the protocol: 2708 2709 • only individual SUSAR reports originating in that particular trial will be forwarded to 2710 the site and associated IRB/IEC on an expedited basis; 2711 • individual SUSARs considered to be a significant safety issue and/or which result in 2712 Roche recommending a change to the Informed Consent Form (ICF), will be reported 2713 in an expedited manner to all investigators and IRBs/IECs; 2714 • SUSAR reports originating from other trials using the same IMP will be provided as 2715 six monthly SUSAR Reports (SSRs) to investigators and IRBs/IECs where long-term 2716 follow-up studies are carried out, unless they are considered significant.

Complete information can be found in Appendix 2. 2724 2725 7.2.3 Abuse and Withdrawal Symptoms 2726 An abuse potential monitoring strategy will ensure close monitoring for potential 2727 diversion and/or abuse of study drug as well as adverse events which may be consistent 2728 with abuse or withdrawal. The strategy is as follows: 2729 2730 – The PI/site staff will regularly check for patterns of suspected hoarding of study 2731 medication (e.g., based on recurring instances of missing medication). Such patterns 2732 should be brought to the attention of the Medical Monitor for appropriate follow up. 2733 2734 – The Sponsor/Medical monitor and PI will regularly review of all AEs related to abuse 2735 potential 2736 2737 Any findings will be documented in a note to file. 2738 2739 7.2.4 Pregnancy 2740 A female patient must be instructed to stop taking the study medication and immediately 2741 inform the investigator if she becomes pregnant during the study. 2742 2743 The investigator should report all pregnancies within 24 hours to the sponsor. The 2744 investigator should counsel the patient, discuss the risks of continuing with the pregnancy 2745 and the possible effects on the fetus. Monitoring of the patient should continue until 2746 conclusion of the pregnancy. The outcome of the pregnancy must be reported to the 2747 sponsor with a follow-up report. Pregnancies occurring up to 90 days after the completion 2748 of the study medication must also be reported to the investigator. 2749 2750 7.3 Warnings and Precautions 2751 No evidence available at the time of the approval of this study protocol indicated that 2752 special warnings or precautions were appropriate, other than those noted in the 2753 Investigators Brochure. 2754 2755 8.

All safety data will be analyzed 2830 for the safety population according to the medication actually dispensed. 2831 2832 8.2.2 Statistical Model 2833 All efficacy data will be analyzed using intent-to-treat population. PP analysis will be 2834 conducted for the primary and selected secondary efficacy variables only if more than 2835 10% of the ITT population are not included in the PP population (defined in 8.2.1.2). For 2836 all efficacy variables, the baseline value will be defined as the last value taken prior to the 2837 start of double-blind study medication. 2838 2839 The efficacy parameters of the primary endpoint and of the continuous secondary 2840 endpoints will be analyzed using a mixed effects covariance pattern model to utilize all 2841 the data collected over time with consideration of the variance-covariance matrix of the 2842 repeated measures (MMRM). 2843 2844 The model will include independent variables of the fixed, categorical effects of 2845 treatment, geographical region/countries, assessment weeks relative to the first dose of 2846 study medication (i.e., time), and treatment-by-time interaction, along with the 2847 continuous effect of baseline. The geographical region/countries will use as categories 2848 the strata of the randomization: Europe, United States, Latin America, Asia 2849 (excluding Japan) and Japan. 2850 2851 An unstructured variance-covariance matrix will be applied to model the within-patient 2852 errors. A treatment-by-time interaction contrast will be used to estimate the difference 2853 between each of the RO4917523 doses and placebo in the mean change from baseline to 2854 day 42 of randomized treatment. 2855 2856 As additional sensitivity analysis, the primary efficacy variable will also be assessed at 2857 day 42 by ANCOVA using the LOCF method as exploratory analysis to assess the 2858 robustness of the results. The model will include the baseline measure as covariate, and 2859 the categorical variable treatment. The effect size of each dose compared to placebo and 2860 its 90% confidence interval will be calculated using estimates from the treatment 2861 contrasts. The results will be used for internal decisions on the continuation of the 2862 development of the project. 2863 2864 Ordered categorical data, like CGI-S, CGI-I or PGI-I, will be analyzed using Wilcoxon 2865 rank test. Binary data, such as responders or remissions, will be analyzed using Fisher’s 2866 exact test. 2867 2868 All exploratory variables and safety and tolerability will be summarized descriptively.

The following assumptions were included: 2877 2878 • 7 post-baseline assessment visits 2879 • Overall dropout rate of 15%, incremental rates over the 6 week period 2880 • An effect size of 0.46 for one dose group at day 42 assuming increasing magnitude 2881 of treatment difference over the period and an effect size of 0.0 for the other dose 2882 group 2883 • A moderately decreasing correlation structure between assessments that are further 2884 apart 2885 2886 2887 8.2.4 Hypothesis Testing 2888 For the primary endpoint the following hypotheses will be tested: 2889 2890 H0: The mean reduction in total MADRS score at end of treatment in both dose groups 2891 are same as in the Placebo group µRO 1 = µPlacebo = µRO 2 2892 2893 vs. 2894 2895 H1: At least in one dose group the mean reduction in total MADRS score at end of 2896 treatment is different from the Placebo group µRO 1 ≠ µPlacebo or µRO 2 ≠ µPlacebo 2897 2898 For each dose group i=1,2 the following hypotheses will be tested: 2899 2900 H0i: The mean reduction in total MADRS score at end of treatment in dose group i is the 2901 same as in the Placebo group µRO i = µPlacebo 2902 2903 vs. 2904 2905 H1i: The mean reduction in total MADRS score at end of treatment in dose group i is 2906 different from the Placebo group µRO i ≠ µPlacebo 2907 2908 A closed testing procedure will be utilized: The overall hypothesis H0 will be tested at the 2909 two-sided significance level α = 0.05 using the Dunnett’s test within the MMRM 2910 analysis. If H0 will be rejected, the elementary hypothesis H0i will be tested at the 2911 two-sided significance level α = 0.05 utilizing t- test within MMRM, separately for i=1, 2912 2. The closed testing procedure has a two-sided maximum family-wise error rates of 0.05. 2913 Therefore no further adjustment for multiplicity is required. 2914 2915 8.2.5 Efficacy Analysis 2916 2917 8.2.5.1 Interim Analysis 2918 No interim analyses are planned.

Details will be described in the statistical analysis plan prior to database 2935 lock and unblinding. 2936 2937 8.2.6 Safety Data Analysis 2938 All safety variables (e.g., adverse events, lab tests, ECG, vital signs, BPRS, YMRS) will 2939 be summarized for each assessment time (including follow-up) using descriptive statistics. 2940 The items of the C-SSRS will be presented by individual listings and the outcomes from 2941 this scale will be classified using the C-CASA methodology. Incidence of AEs will be 2942 summarized based on body systems and preferred terms. Incidence of marked abnormal 2943 lab test results will be summarized based on the Roche COG 3007 definition. 2944 2945 8.2.7 Other Analyses 2946 2947 8.2.7.1 Pharmacokinetic Analysis 2948 Nonlinear mixed effects modeling (with software NONMEM [20]) will be used to 2949 analyze the sparse sampling dose-concentration-time data of RO4917523. Population and 2950 individual pharmacokinetic parameters (e.g. Cl/F and Vss/F) will be estimated and the 2951 influence of various covariates on these parameters will be investigated. The data 2952 collected in this study may be pooled with data collected in previous phase I and phase 2953 IIa studies as appropriate to build pharmacokinetic model. Secondary PK parameters such 2954 as AUC and Cmax will be derived from the individual post-hoc predictions. 2955 2956 The results will be reported in a document separate from the clinical study report. 2957 2958 8.2.7.2 Pharmacodynamic Analysis 2959 Exploratory analyses or modeling techniques (if possible) will be used to investigate the 2960 relationship between RO4917523 exposure and response (e.g. MADRS, CGI-I for 2961 efficacy and occurrence of psychiatric AEs for safety). The results will be reported in a 2962 document separate from the clinical study report. 2963 2964 8.2.7.3 Subgroup Analysis 2965 To assess whether safety, efficacy and pharmacokinetic results of the patients enrolled in 2966 different geographical regions/countries are similar, selected key data may be analyzed 2967 for each. The comparability will be assessed descriptively.

DATA COLLECTION, MANAGEMENT AND QUALITY ASSURANCE 2970 The overall procedures for quality assurance of clinical study data are described in the 2971 Contract Research Organization (CRO) Standard Operational Procedures. 2972 2973 Data for this study will be recorded via an Electronic Data Capture system EDC using 2974 electronic Case Report Forms (eCRF). It will be transcribed by the site from the paper 2975 source documents into the eCRF. In no case is the eCRF to be considered as source data 2976 for this trial. 2977 2978 Accurate and reliable data collection will be assured by verification and cross–check of 2979 the eCRFs against the investigator’s records by the study monitor (source document 2980 verification), and the maintenance of a drug–dispensing log by the investigator. 2981 2982 A comprehensive validation check program will verify the data. Discrepancies will be 2983 generated automatically in the system at the point of entry or added manually for 2984 resolution by the Investigator. 2985 2986 In order to facilitate analysis of the pharmacokinetic samples collected in this study, the 2987 treatment code will be released to the responsible analyst when the samples have been 2988 received at the analytical site and are ready for assay. The result of the analysis must not 2989 be released with individual identification of the patient until the database is closed. 2990 2991 9.1 Assignment of Preferred Terms and Original Terminology 2992 For classification purposes, preferred terms will be assigned by the Sponsor to the 2993 original terms entered on the eCRF, using the most up-to-date version of the Medical 2994 Dictionary for Regulatory Activities (MedDRA) terminology for adverse events and 2995 diseases and the International Non-proprietary Name (INN) Drug Terms and Procedures 2996 Dictionary for treatments and surgical and medical procedures. 2997 2998 10. STUDY COMMITTEES 2999 An independent Data Safety Monitoring Board (DSMB) will review potential safety 3000 signals of concern. The DSMB will be composed of non-sponsor members who are not 3001 involved in the conduct of this study and with no other ongoing financial relationship 3002 with the sponsor. The DSMB will review available safety data (and potentially efficacy 3003 data, only if deemed necessary to better assess safety) from this trial at regularly 3004 scheduled intervals as specified in the DSMB Charter. Two DSMB review cycles are 3005 planned. The first review cycle is planned to occur when approximately 40 to 60 patients 3006 have completed the study. The second will occur when approximately 140 to 160 patients 3007 have completed. The DSMB has the option to change the data review schedule as deemed 3008 necessary. 3009 3010 Following each data review, the DSMB will make recommendations regarding the 3011 conduct of this study, including continuing the study without modifications, or to modify 3012 the study design in any other way. Details of the DSMB’s responsibilities and logistics 3013 will be outlined in the DSMB Charter.

Downloaded From: https://jamanetwork.com/ on 09/29/2021 3194 3195 Sampling for the RCR is contingent on review and approval for the exploratory 3196 biomarker assessments and written informed consent by an appropriate regulatory body 3197 (depending on the country where the study is performed) and a site’s Institutional Review 3198 Board (IRB) / Ethics Committee (EC). If a regulatory or site’s IRB/ EC does not approve 3199 the sampling for the exploratory assessments the section on biomarker sampling will not 3200 be applicable. 3201 3202 Roche shall also submit an Annual Safety Report once a year to the IEC and Competent 3203 Authorities (CAs) according to local regulatory requirements and timelines of each 3204 country participating in the study. In the U.S. Roche submits an IND Annual Report to 3205 the FDA according to local regulatory requirements and timelines. 3206 3207 12.4 Role of the Science and Ethics Advisory Group (SEAG) 3208 A Science and Ethics Advisory Group consisting of experts in the fields of biology, 3209 ethics, sociology and law will advise Roche regarding the use of specimens stored in the 3210 RCR and on the scientific and ethical aspects of handling genetic information. The SEAG 3211 is independent of Roche. 3212 3213 13. CONDITIONS FOR MODIFYING THE PROTOCOL 3214 Requests from investigators to modify the protocol to ongoing studies will be considered 3215 only by consultation between an appropriate representative of the sponsor and the 3216 investigator [investigator representative[s] in the case of a multicenter trial]. Protocol 3217 modifications must be prepared by a representative of the sponsor and initially reviewed 3218 and approved by the Clinical Science Leader and Biostatistician. 3219 3220 All protocol modifications must be submitted to the appropriate Independent Ethics 3221 Committee or Institutional Review Board for information and approval in accordance with 3222 local requirements, and to Regulatory Agencies if required. Approval must be obtained 3223 before any changes can be implemented, except for changes necessary to eliminate an 3224 immediate hazard to trial patients, or when the change[s] involves only logistical or 3225 administrative aspects of the trial [e.g. change in monitor[s], change of telephone 3226 number[s]]. 3227 3228 14. CONDITIONS FOR TERMINATING THE STUDY 3229 Both the sponsor and the investigator reserve the right to terminate the study at any time. 3230 Should this be necessary, both parties will arrange the procedures on an individual study 3231 basis after review and consultation. In terminating the study, Roche and the investigator 3232 will assure that adequate consideration is given to the protection of the patients’ interests. 3233 The appropriate IRB/EC and Regulatory Agencies should be informed accordingly. 3234 3235 15. STUDY DOCUMENTATION, CRFS AND RECORD KEEPING 3236 3237 15.1 Investigator's Files / Retention of Documents 3238 The Investigator must maintain adequate and accurate records to enable the conduct of 3239 the study to be fully documented and the study data to be subsequently verified. These 3240 documents should be classified into two different separate categories [1] Investigator's 3241 Study File, and [2] patient clinical source documents.

CONFIDENTIAL Roche Protocol NP25620 C (RO4917523) - Page72

Downloaded From: https://jamanetwork.com/ on 09/29/2021 3242 3243 The Investigator's Study File will contain the protocol/amendments, CRF/DCS and 3244 schedule of assessments, Independent Ethics Committee/Institutional Review Board and 3245 governmental approval with correspondence, sample informed consent, drug records, 3246 staff curriculum vitae and authorization forms and other appropriate 3247 documents/correspondence, etc. In addition at the end of the study the investigator will 3248 receive the patient data, which includes an audit trail containing a complete record of all 3249 changes to data, query resolution correspondence and reasons for changes, in human 3250 readable format on CD which also has to be kept with the Investigator’s Study File. 3251 3252 Patient clinical source documents [usually defined by the project in advance to record key 3253 efficacy/safety parameters independent of the CRFs] would include patient hospital/clinic 3254 records, physician's and nurse's notes, appointment book, original laboratory reports, 3255 ECG, EEG, X-ray, pathology and special assessment reports, signed informed consent 3256 forms, consultant letters, and patient screening and enrollment logs. The Investigator 3257 must keep the two categories of documents as described above (including the archival 3258 CD) on file for at least 15 years after completion or discontinuation of the study. After 3259 that period of time the documents may be destroyed, subject to local regulations. 3260 3261 Should the Investigator wish to assign the study records to another party or move them to 3262 another location, Roche must be notified in advance. 3263 3264 If the Investigator can not guarantee this archiving requirement at the investigational site 3265 for any or all of the documents, special arrangements must be made between the 3266 Investigator and Roche to store these in a sealed container[s] outside of the site so that 3267 they can be returned sealed to the Investigator in case of a regulatory audit. Where source 3268 documents are required for the continued care of the patient, appropriate copies should be 3269 made for storing outside of the site. 3270 3271 ICH GCP guidelines require that Investigators maintain information in the study patient’s 3272 records which corroborate data collected on the CRF(s). Completed CRF will be 3273 forwarded to Roche. 3274 3275 15.2 Source Documents and Background Data 3276 The investigator shall supply the sponsor on request with any required background data 3277 from the study documentation or clinic records. This is particularly important when errors 3278 in data transcription are suspected. In case of special problems and/or governmental 3279 queries or requests for audit inspections, it is also necessary to have access to the 3280 complete study records, provided that patient confidentiality is protected. 3281 3282 15.3 Audits and Inspections 3283 The investigator should understand that source documents for this trial should be made 3284 available to appropriately qualified personnel from the Roche Pharma Development 3285 Quality Assurance Unit or its designees, or to health authority inspectors after appropriate 3286 notification. The verification of the CRF data must be by direct inspection of source 3287 documents.

Downloaded From: https://jamanetwork.com/ on 09/29/2021 3288 3289 15.4 Case Report Forms or Electronic Case Report Forms 3290 Data for this study will be captured via an online Electronic Data Capture (EDC) system. 3291 The data collected in the source documents is entered onto the study eCRF. An audit trail 3292 will maintain a record of initial entries and changes made; reasons for change; time and 3293 date of entry; and user name of person authorizing entry or change. 3294 3295 For each patient randomized, an eCRF must be completed and electronically signed by 3296 the principal investigator or authorized delegate from the study staff. This also applies to 3297 records for those patients who fail to complete the study. If a patient withdraws from the 3298 study, the reason must be noted on the eCRF. If a patient is withdrawn from the study 3299 because of a treatment-limiting AE, thorough efforts should be made to clearly document 3300 the outcome. 3301 3302 The investigator should ensure the accuracy, completeness and timeliness of the data 3303 reported to the sponsor in the eCRFs and in all required reports. 3304 3305 15.5 Financial Disclosure 3306 The investigator(s) will provide the Sponsor with sufficient accurate financial 3307 information (PD35) to allow the Sponsor to submit complete and accurate financial 3308 certification or disclosure statements to the appropriate regulatory authorities. The 3309 investigator is responsible to promptly update any information provided to the Sponsor if 3310 relevant changes occur in the course of the investigation and for 1 year following the 3311 completion of the study (last patient, last visit). 3312 3313 16. MONITORING THE STUDY 3314 It is understood that the responsible Roche monitor [or designee] will contact and visit 3315 the investigator regularly and will be allowed, on request, to inspect the various records 3316 of the trial [CRFs and other pertinent data] provided that patient confidentiality is 3317 maintained in accord with local requirements. 3318 3319 It will be the monitor's responsibility to inspect the CRFs at regular intervals throughout 3320 the study, to verify the adherence to the protocol and the completeness, consistency and 3321 accuracy of the data being entered on them. The monitor must verify that the patient 3322 received the study drug assigned by the randomization center (by controlling the written 3323 confirmation of the randomization by IVRS). The monitor should have access to 3324 laboratory test reports and other patient records needed to verify the entries on the CRF. 3325 The investigator [or deputy] agrees to cooperate with the monitor to ensure that any 3326 problems detected in the course of these monitoring visits are resolved. 3327 3328 Roche Clinical Repository specimens will at all times be tracked in a manner consistent 3329 with Good Clinical Practice, by a quality controlled, auditable and validated Laboratory 3330 Information Management System, to ensure compliance with data confidentiality as well 3331 as adherence to authorized use of specimens as specified in the study protocol and ICF, 3332 respectively. Roche monitors and auditors will have direct access to appropriate parts of 3333 records relating to patients participating in this study for the purposes of verifying the 3334 data provided to Roche. The site will permit monitoring, audits, Institutional Review 3335 Board/Independent Ethics Committee (IRB/IEC) review, and regulatory inspections by

CONFIDENTIALITY OF TRIAL DOCUMENTS AND PATIENT RECORDS 3341 The investigator must assure that patients’ anonymity will be maintained and that their 3342 identities are protected from unauthorized parties. On CRFs or other documents 3343 submitted to the sponsor, patients should not be identified by their names, but by an 3344 identification code. The investigator should keep a patient enrollment log showing codes, 3345 names and addresses. The investigator should maintain documents not for submission to 3346 Roche, e.g., patients' written consent forms, in strict confidence. 3347 3348 Roche already maintains rigorous confidentiality standards for clinical studies by 3349 “coding” (i.e. assigning a unique patient ID number at the investigator site) all patients 3350 enrolled in Roche clinical studies. This means that patient names are not included in 3351 data sets that are transmitted to any Roche location. Given the sensitive nature of genetic 3352 data, Roche has implemented a number of additional processes to assure patient 3353 confidentiality. All specimens taken for inherited genetic research that will be stored in 3354 the RCR (see 5.6.1) undergo a second level of “coding”. At Roche, the specimen is 3355 transferred to a new tube and labeled with a new random number. This is referred to as 3356 “Double Coding (De-Identification)”. Data generated following the use of these 3357 specimens and all clinical data transferred from the clinical study database and 3358 considered relevant, will also be labeled with this same code. The “linking key” between 3359 the participant’s identification number and this new independent code will be stored in a 3360 secure database system. Access to the table linking the participant identification number 3361 to the specimen code will be strictly limited and monitored by audit trail. Legitimate 3362 operational reasons for accessing the “linking key” will be documented in a standard 3363 operating procedure. Access to the “linking key” for any other reason will require written 3364 approval from the Governance Committee responsible for the specimen(s). 3365 3366 18. CLINICAL STUDY REPORT (CSR) 3367 A clinical study report will be written and distributed to Health Authorities as required by 3368 applicable regulatory requirements. 3369 3370 To fulfill the requirement of the EU Directive No 75/318/EEC the CSR will be 3371 signed by a coordinating investigator who will be designated at a later stage. 3372 3373 Note: EU Regulation (EC) No.1901/2006, states: For pediatric studies the CSR must be 3374 distributed to the applicable Health Authorities within six months of completion of the 3375 study. 3376 3377 19. PUBLICATION OF DATA AND PROTECTION OF TRADE SECRETS 3378 Roche will comply with the requirements for publication of study results. 3379 3380 The results of this study may be published or presented at scientific meetings. If this is 3381 foreseen, the investigator agrees to submit all manuscripts or abstracts to Roche prior to 3382 submission. This allows the sponsor to protect proprietary information and to provide 3383 comments based on information from other studies that may not yet be available to the 3384 investigator.

In 3388 this case, a coordinating investigator will be designated by mutual agreement. 3389 3390 Authorship will be determined by mutual agreement and in line with International 3391 Committee of Medical Journal Editors (ICMJE) authorship requirements.. Any formal 3392 publication of the study in which contribution of Roche personnel exceeded that of 3393 conventional monitoring will be considered as a joint publication by the investigator and 3394 the appropriate Roche personnel. 3395 3396 Data derived from RCR specimen analysis on individual patients will not be provided to 3397 study investigators, except where explicitly stipulated in a study protocol (e.g. if the 3398 result is an enrollment criterion). Exceptions may be granted (e.g. if biomarker data 3399 would be linked to safety issues). The aggregate results of any research conducted using 3400 RCR specimens will be available in accordance with the effective Roche policy on study 3401 data publication. 3402 3403 Any inventions and resulting patents, improvements and / or know- how originating from 3404 the use of the RCR will become and remain the exclusive and unburdened property of 3405 Roche, except where agreed otherwise.

An AE may be considered probable, if: 3412 3413 1. It follows a reasonable temporal sequence from administration of the drug. 3414 2. It cannot be reasonably explained by the known characteristics of the patient’s 3415 clinical state, environmental or toxic factors, or other modes of therapy administered 3416 to the patient. 3417 3. It disappears or decreases on cessation or reduction in dose. [There are important 3418 exceptions when an AE does not disappear upon discontinuation of the drug, yet 3419 drug-relatedness clearly exists; e.g., [1] bone marrow depression, [2] tardive 3420 dyskinesias.] 3421 4. It follows a known pattern of response to the suspected medication. 3422 5. It reappears upon rechallenge.

3423 POSSIBLE [must have first two]

3424 This category applies to those AEs in which the connection with the test drug 3425 administration appears unlikely but cannot be ruled out with certainty. An AE may be 3426 considered possible if, or when: 3427 3428 1. It follows a reasonable temporal sequence from administration of the drug. 3429 2. It may have been produced by the patient’s clinical state, environmental or toxic 3430 factors, or other modes of therapy administered to the patient. 3431 3. It follows a known pattern of response to the suspected medication.

3432 REMOTE [must have first two]

3433 In general, this category is applicable to an AE which meets the following criteria: 3434 3435 1. It does not follow a reasonable temporal sequence from administration of the drug. 3436 2. It may readily have been produced by the patient’s clinical state, environmental or 3437 toxic factors, or other modes of therapy administered to the patient. 3438 3. It does not follow a known pattern of response to the suspected medication. 3439 4. It does not reappear or worsen when the drug is readministered.

3440 UNRELATED

3441 This category is applicable to those AEs which are judged to be clearly and 3442 incontrovertibly due only to extraneous causes [disease, environment, etc.] and do not 3443 meet the criteria for drug relationship listed under remote, possible, or probable.

It is any AE that at any dose fulfills at least 3453 one of the following criteria: 3454 3455 – is fatal; [results in death] [NOTE: death is an outcome, not an event] 3456 3457 – is Life-Threatening [NOTE: the term "Life-Threatening" refers to an event in which 3458 the patient was at immediate risk of death at the time of the event; it does not refer to 3459 an event which could hypothetically have caused a death had it been more severe] 3460 3461 – requires in-patient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization 3462 3463 – results in persistent or significant disability/incapacity 3464 3465 – is a congenital anomaly/birth defect 3466 3467 – is medically significant or requires intervention to prevent one or other of the 3468 outcomes listed above 3469 3470 Medical and scientific judgment should be exercised in deciding whether expedited 3471 reporting to the sponsor is appropriate in other situations, such as important medical 3472 events that may not be immediately life-threatening or result in death or hospitalization 3473 but may jeopardize the patient or may require intervention to prevent one of the outcomes 3474 listed in the definitions above. These situations should also usually be considered serious. 3475 3476 Examples of such events are intensive treatment in an emergency room or at home for 3477 allergic bronchospasm; blood dyscrasias or convulsions that do not result in hospitalization; 3478 or development of drug dependency or drug abuse. 3479 3480 An unexpected AE is one in which the nature or severity is not consistent with the 3481 applicable product information. 3482 3483 Causality is initially assessed by the investigator. For Serious Adverse Events, possible 3484 causes of the event is indicated by selecting one or more options. (Check all that apply) 3485 3486 – Pre-existing/Underlying disease – specify 3487 3488 – Study treatment – specify the drug(s) related to the event 3489 3490 – Other treatment (concomitant or previous) – specify 3491 3492 – Protocol-related procedure 3493 3494 – Other (e.g. accident, new or intercurrent illness) – specify 3495 3496 The term severe is a measure of intensity, thus a severe AE is not necessarily serious. For 3497 example, nausea of several hours' duration may be rated as severe, but may not be 3498 clinically serious.

Follow-up questions are provided, 3557 however, for use when further exploration or additional clarification of symptoms is 3558 necessary. The specified questions should be asked until you have enough information to 3559 rate the item confidently. In some cases, you may also have to add your own follow-up 3560 questions to obtain necessary information. Note that questions in parentheses are 3561 optional, for use, for example, if information is unknown. 3562 3563 NOTES:

3564 Time period. The ratings should be based on the patient's condition in the past week.

3565 Change from baseline. In general, a symptom is rated as present only when it reflects a 3566 change from before the depression began (baseline). The interviewer must identify a 2- 3567 month period of non-depressed functioning and use this as a reference point. In some 3568 cases, such as when the patient has dysthymia the referent should be to the last time the 3569 person felt all right (i.e. not depressed or high) for at least a few weeks. 3570 3571 This interview guide is based on the Montgomery-Asberg Depression Rating Scale 3572 (MADRS) (Montgomery SA, Asberg M: A new depression scale designed to be sensitive 3573 to change. Br J Psychiatry ;1979 134: 382-9). The scale itself has been retained in its 3574 original form, except for reversing the order of the first two items.

Downloaded From: https://jamanetwork.com/ on 09/29/2021 3839 1. BACKGROUND 3840 3841 This Statistical Analysis Plan (SAP) documents the statistical methods for summarizing 3842 and analyzing the efficacy and safety data from study NP25620 to be collected from 3843 patients with major depressive disorder with an inadequate response to ongoing 3844 antidepressant treatment who will be administered RO4917523. The main purpose of 3845 this SAP is to describe the data handling rules, derivation rules, and statistical analysis 3846 methods. 3847 3848 2. STUDY DESIGN 3849 3850 Study NP25620 is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group, 3851 multicenter study that will evaluate two fixed doses of RO4917523 versus placebo as 3852 adjunctive treatment for 6 weeks in patients with major depressive disorder with 3853 inadequate response to ongoing antidepressant therapy. 3854 3855 Following screening procedures to confirm eligibility, patients on ongoing antidepressant 3856 therapy will be randomized to one of the three treatment arms: a) RO4917523 0.5 mg 3857 once daily, b) RO4917523 1.5 mg once daily, or c) placebo once daily. 3858 3859 This outpatient trial consists of the following periods: 3860 3861 • Screening period: up to 14 days 3862 3863 • Double-blind treatment period: 6 weeks 3864 3865 • Follow-up period: 21 days 3866 3867 2.1 PROTOCOL SYNOPSIS 3868 3869 The protocol synopsis is in Appendix 1. 3870 3871 2.2 OUTCOME MEASURES 3872 3873 See the protocol synopsis in Appendix 1 for the efficacy, safety, and pharmacokinetic 3874 (PK) outcome measures. 3875 3876 2.3 DETERMINATION OF SAMPLE SIZE 3877 3878 A sample size of approximately 100 patients per group (approximately 300 patients for 3879 the three groups) has been chosen to obtain a power of approximately 80% at two-sided 3880 maximum family-wise error rate of 0.05 in a closed testing procedure. The power 3881 calculation was based on simulations of the mixed-effect model repeat measures 3882 (MMRM) analysis planned for the primary efficacy variable. The following assumptions 3883 were included: 3884 • Seven post-baseline assessment visits 3885 3886 • An overall dropout rate of 15%, incremental rates over the 6-week double-blind 3887 treatment period

Downloaded From: https://jamanetwork.com/ on 09/29/2021 3888 • An effect size of 0.46 for one dose group at Day 42, assuming increasing magnitude 3889 of treatment difference over the period and an effect size of 0.0 for the other dose 3890 group 3891 3892 • A moderately decreasing correlation structure between assessments that are further 3893 apart 3894 3895 2.4 ANALYSIS TIMING 3896 3897 The primary efficacy analysis will be performed at the end of the study, after the last 3898 patient has completed the last follow-up visit. 3899 3900 2.4.1 Data to Be Analyzed 3901 3902 In the case that (safety) follow-up data and patient data from the additional Japanese 3903 patients will continue after the primary and secondary efficacy analysis, the 3904 efficacy analysis will be carried out by an independent group consisting of the Sponsor 3905 and the contract research organization as described in Section 2.4.2. In this case, the 3906 unblinded Sponsor’s Neuroscience Therapeutic Area Head and/or designees will have 3907 no contact with the study management team regarding the conduct of the study and data 3908 cleaning activities until final database lock. 3909 3910 2.4.2 Measures to Minimize Bias 3911 3912 The randomization list will only be provided to the independent group. The data will be 3913 stored in an access-restricted area to which only the independent group will have access. 3914 Unblinded summary data will be reviewed only by the Neuroscience Therapeutic Area 3915 Head and/or designees who will have no contact with the study management team 3916 regarding the conduct of the study and data cleaning activities until database lock. The 3917 results will be presented to representatives from upper management who will be 3918 involved directly in the decision on the planning of future research for this project. 3919 Dissemination of the results will be limited, and, particularly, the details will not be 3920 distributed to those who are directly involved the conduct of the study, and the data 3921 cleaning activities. 3922 3923 An audit trail will be maintained to track any changes made to efficacy data points 3924 between the efficacy analysis and final database lock. If any change in the variables 3925 used for the analysis occurs, the respective analyses will be repeated and both results 3926 will be reported in the CSR. 3927 3928 3. STUDY CONDUCT 3929 3930 3.1 RANDOMIZATION 3931 3932 Randomization will be performed centrally by telephone or web using an interactive 3933 response system (IxRS). After being screened, those patients who meet all eligibility 3934 criteria will be randomly assigned to one of the three treatment groups: placebo, 3935 RO4917523 0.5 mg, or RO4917523 1.5 mg, in the ratio of 1:1:1.

Downloaded From: https://jamanetwork.com/ on 09/29/2021 3936 The patient numbers will be allocated sequentially in the order in which the patients are 3937 enrolled according to the specification document agreed with the IxRS vendor. The 3938 treatment allocation will be stratified by geographical region/country, as follows: 3939 • Europe, United States, Latin America, and Japan 3940 3941 3942 The study is planned in a double-blind manner to minimize potential bias. The Sponsor 3943 will be blinded to the study treatments (those patients are randomized to and those 3944 actually given). 3945 3946 3.2 DATA MONITORING 3947 3948 An independent Data Monitoring Committee (iDMC) will review unblinded safety data at 3949 scheduled time intervals and on an ad-hoc basis as needed. The safety data package 3950 will be prepared by a team external to the Sponsor. Details are described in the iDMC 3951 Charter. 3952 3953 4. STATISTICAL METHODS 3954 3955 4.1 ANALYSIS POPULATIONS 3956 3957 The following analysis populations will be defined: intent to treat (ITT), per-protocol (PP), 3958 completer (CP) and safety. 3959 3960 4.1.1 Intent-to-Treat Analysis Population 3961 3962 The ITT analysis population will include all randomized patients who received at least 3963 one dose of the randomized study drug. Patients who receive study drug different from 3964 that to which they were randomized will be included in the group to which they were 3965 randomized. 3966 3967 The ITT analysis population will be the primary analysis population for all analyses of 3968 primary and secondary clinical efficacy data. 3969 3970 4.1.2 Per Protocol Population 3971 3972 The PP analysis population will be defined as the subset of the ITT population that 3973 excludes those patients who have major protocol violations affecting efficacy 3974 assessments. Patients in the PP population should meet all the following criteria: 3975 • Meet all inclusion criteria with the exception of the body mass index (BMI) 3976 requirement, contraceptive protections, and stability of existing medication regimens 3977 for other medical conditions for at least 6 weeks prior to baseline 3978 3979 • Show overall compliance of 80% − 120% with study drug during the individual 3980 treatment period (Day 42/end of treatment [EOT]) (see Section 4.7.1 for calculation 3981 of compliance) 3982 3983 • Have assessment of Montgomery Asberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS) 3984 conducted by certified site raters

All analyses will be performed using these preferred 4083 terms and body systems. Diagnoses will be categorized as “not active,” or “active” at the 4084 screening visit, using the end date or “ongoing” tick box responses on the Medical 4085 History page of the eCRF. 4086 4087 The number and percentage of patients with previous diseases (i.e., those marked “not 4088 active”) will be summarized by treatment group. Multiple occurrences of a same disease 4089 (i.e., same coded term) in the same patient will be counted only once. Diseases 4090 concurrent at baseline (i.e., those marked “active”) will be summarized similarly in a 4091 separate table. 4092 4093 4.3.5 Previous and Concomitant Medications (Other than Study 4094 Treatment) 4095 4096 For all medications, the term entered by the investigator to describe the medication 4097 (the “verbatim term”) will be assigned to a standardized term (the “preferred term”) and 4098 drug class based on the International Non-proprietary Name (INN) Drug Terms and 4099 Procedures Dictionary. All analyses will be performed using these preferred terms and 4100 medication classes. 4101 4102 The number and percentage of patients taking each medication will be presented for each 4103 treatment group. Previous and concomitant medications will be summarized separately 4104 by the purpose of the treatment (e.g., for depression treatment, for adverse events [AEs], 4105 etc.). Previous medications completed 6 months prior to screening will not be 4106 summarized. Multiple occurrences of a same medication taken by same patient 4107 (i.e., same coded term) will be counted only once. All summary tables will be sorted by 4108 medication class (in decreasing order of overall incidence), then by preferred term 4109 (in decreasing order of overall incidence). 4110 4111 The rules shown in Table 1 will be applied in classifying the medications into previous, 4112 concomitant, or previous and concomitant.

Downloaded From: https://jamanetwork.com/ on 09/29/2021 4127 Other assessments during the double-blind period and follow-up period will have the 4128 following time windows: 4129 Visit Start Day End Day Target Day Day 3 2 4 3 Day 7 5 9 7 Day 11 10 12 11 Day 14 13 17 14 Day 21 18 24 21 Day 28 25 31 28 Day 35 32 38 35 Day 42 39 44 42 Follow-up Date of last dose + 18 Date of last dose + 24 Date of last dose + 21 4130 4131 Note that the above defined time windows (day intervals) will be used for all parameters, 4132 including those that were not scheduled to be collected at all visits for the sake of 4133 consistency. Data from assessments performed during a visit unscheduled for the 4134 parameter will not be included in summary tables or hypothesis testing. 4135 4136 If multiple valid (non-missing) values for a variable are recorded at the same time 4137 window, one record will be selected for summary of the data by the following priority: 4138 1. The originally scheduled visit assessment 4139 4140 2. The assessment closest to the target assessment day 4141 4142 3. The last assessment within the time window 4143 4144 4.4.1 Primary Efficacy Endpoint 4145 4.4.1.1 Definition of Primary Efficacy Endpoint 4146 The primary efficacy endpoint of the study is the change from baseline in the MADRS 4147 total score at Day 42, as assessed by the site raters. 4148 4149 MADRS comprises 10 items; each item is rated on a 0–6 scale with anchors at 2-point 4150 intervals 4151 4152 MADRS total score = sum of all 10 items 4153 4154 If any item score is missing, then the MADRS total score will be set to missing.

4155 A higher MADRS total score indicates a greater pathology.

4156 The change from baseline of MADRS total score at Day 42 will be calculated as the total 4157 score at Day 42 minus the total score at baseline. A negative change from baseline in 4158 MADRS total score indicates improvement.

Downloaded From: https://jamanetwork.com/ on 09/29/2021 4159 4.4.1.2 Hypothesis Testing 4160 For the primary endpoint the following hypotheses will be tested: 4161 4162 H0: The mean reduction in total MADRS score at Day 42 in both dose groups are

4163 same as in the placebo group μRO 1 = μPlacebo = μRO 2 4164 4165 versus 4166 4167 H1: At least in one dose group the mean reduction in total MADRS score at Day 42

4168 is different from the placebo group μRO 1 ≠ μPlacebo or μRO 2 ≠ μPlacebo 4169 4170 For each dose group i=1,2 the following hypotheses will be tested: 4171 4172 H0i: The mean reduction in total MADRS score at Day 42 in dose group i is the same

4173 as in the placebo group μRO i = μPlacebo 4174 4175 versus 4176 4177 H1i: The mean reduction in total MADRS score at Day 42 in dose group i is different

4178 from the placebo group μRO i ≠ μPlacebo 4179 4180 A closed testing procedure will be utilized: The overall hypothesis H0 will be tested at the 4181 two-sided significance level α = 0.05 using the Dunnett test within the MMRM analysis. If

4182 H0 will be rejected, the elementary hypothesis H0i will be tested at the two-sided 4183 significance level α = 0.05 utilizing t- test within MMRM, separately for i=1, 2. The 4184 closed testing procedure has a two-sided maximum family-wise error rates of 0.05. 4185 Therefore no further adjustment for multiplicity is required. 4186 4187 4.4.1.3 Statistical Analysis Method 4188 For the assessment of differences between each RO4917523 group and placebo with 4189 regard to the mean change from baseline in MADRS total score at Day 42, an MMRM 4190 analysis incorporating data from up to Day 42 of treatment will be used for all the data 4191 collected over time with consideration of the variance-covariance matrix of the repeated 4192 measures. This method allows a general unstructured variance-covariance matrix and 4193 will include data from patients with incomplete data from some scheduled time points. 4194 4195 The model 4196 4197 yijk = μ + πk + τi + (π τ)ik + γij + β* Mij0 + εijk, i=1,2,3, j=1,…,ni, k=1,7,..,35,42 4198 4199 will include the change from baseline in MADRS total score yijk of subject j in the 4200 treatment group i at visit day k as the dependent variable. The fixed effects in the model 4201 will include the independent variables the overall mean μ, of the fixed categorical effects

4202 of treatment τi, assessment day relative to the first dose of randomized study drug

4203 (i.e., time) πk, treatment-by-time interaction (π τ)ik, geographical region γij, along with the

4204 baseline MADRS total score as a covariate β* Mij0. Time will be treated as a repeated

4205 variable within a patient. The individual within-patients residual vectors εij = (εij1,…, εij,42) 4206 are assumed to be independently normal distributed with identical unstructured 4207 variance-covariance matrix. Patient, treatment, and time will be treated as factor

Denominator degrees of freedom will be estimated 4210 using Satterthwaite’s approximation. 4211 4212 A treatment-by-time interaction contrast (i.e., pairwise treatment group contrast at 4213 Day 42) will be constructed to estimate the difference between each of the RO4917523 4214 doses versus placebo in the mean change from baseline to Day 42. Based on the 4215 analysis above, least square means, standard errors, the 95% confidence intervals (CIs) 4216 of the treatment difference, and p-values of t-test and Dunnett test will be reported for 4217 each comparison. 4218 4219 The MADRS total score and the change from baseline in MADRS total score at each 4220 scheduled visit will be summarized using descriptive statistics for each treatment group. 4221 4222 4.4.1.4 Adjustment for Multiple Testing 4223 The adjustment for multiple testing is incorporated into the hypothesis testing in 4224 Section 4.4.1.2. 4225 4226 4.4.2 Secondary Efficacy Endpoints 4227 4.4.2.1 Definition of Secondary Efficacy Endpoints 4228 The secondary efficacy variables include the following: 4229 4230 • Change from baseline in the CGI-S rating score at Day 42. 4231 4232 The CGI-S is rated on a 1–7 scale.

A model 4356 including main effects of treatment, the covariate, and the treatment-by-covariate 4357 interaction term will be used. The statistical significance of the interaction terms will be 4358 assessed at the 0.10 α level for the homogeneity of the treatment effect across the 4359 baseline value or the geographic region/country of the study centers. If a significant 4360 interaction effect is noted, the nature of the interaction (e.g., quantitative or qualitative) will 4361 be examined using descriptive summaries of the data by various levels of the baseline 4362 value or by geographic region/country. 4363 4364 4.4.4.2 Missing Data Assumptions 4365 The analysis on the assumptions for missing data will only be performed for the primary 4366 efficacy endpoint. The primary analysis assumes a missing at random (MAR) 4367 missing-data mechanism (i.e., the probability that missing data are dependent on other 4368 observed variables, but not on the missing data itself. The assumption of MAR will be 4369 assessed by the following data review. However, it will not be possible to completely 4370 rule out the “missing not at random.” 4371 • Comparison between treatment groups regarding dropout rates and time 4372 of dropouts 4373 4374 • Comparison between subsequent dropouts versus those who remained in the study 4375 regarding outcome of the primary efficacy variable at each assessment week 4376 4377 4378 The random-effects pattern-mixture model will be applied as a sensitivity analysis to 4379 explore the robustness of the MMRM results of the primary efficacy variable [1]. 4380 4381 In the random-effects pattern-mixture model, the effects of missing data patterns will be 4382 included as explanatory variables in the MMRM analysis to assess whether treatment 4383 effects vary by dropout status. For example, patients will be classified into separate 4384 patterns based on dropout status, such as dropouts, potential split into sub-groups 4385 based on the timing of the dropout, or by type of dropout, and completers. This 4386 patient-level variable and interaction terms with this variable will then be included in the 4387 primary analysis model of MMRM to assess their influence on the longitudinally observed 4388 outcome of the primary efficacy variable. The MMRM model incorporating the pattern- 4389 mixture approach will include fixed terms of status of dropout and its two-way interaction 4390 terms (i.e., dropout-by-treatment, dropout-by-assessment time), and the 4391 three-way interaction term (dropout-by-treatment-by-assessment time). The MMRM 4392 model will enable the evaluation of whether study treatment effects are consistent across

The overall estimate of treatment effects will be 4394 compared with the estimates from the main model not including pattern mixture. 4395 4396 In the random random-effects pattern-mixture analysis, the statistical significance of the 4397 interaction terms will be assessed at the 0.10 significance level. If a significant 4398 interaction is noted the following sensitivity analyses are performed including a 4399 multiple-imputation analysis to evaluate the sensitivity of not MAR scenarios. 4400 4401 For the multiple-imputation analysis, it will be assumed that majority of missing data will 4402 be monotone due to early withdrawals (observations for all visit after a missing 4403 observation are missing). PROC MI in SAS with the Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) 4404 method will be used for multiple imputations using a pattern mixture model as follows: All 4405 change from baseline MADRS data at all visits under treatment will be used. Non 4406 monotone missing data (missing observation[s] followed by non-missing observation at a 4407 later visit) will be imputed assuming that they follow the same model as other patients in 4408 the same treatment group. Monotone missing data will be imputed under the 4409 assumption that the patients who discontinued their treatment will follow the same 4410 pattern of disease evolution as patients in the placebo group. The imputation will be 4411 performed in a stepwise process for each visit: All placebo patients and those who drop 4412 out at a given visit will be included to impute the missing values of those who 4413 discontinued. 4414 4415 A completer analysis will be performed including only patients who have completed 4416 Day 42. 4417 4418 4.4.5 Subgroup Analyses 4419 4420 Subgroup analyses of the primary efficacy variable will be performed for subgroups 4421 defined by stratification factors at randomization and clinically relevant factors at 4422 baseline as follows: 4423 • Sex: male versus female 4424 4425 • Geographic region: Europe versus United Stated versus Latin America versus 4426 Japan; and Japan versus non-Japan 4427 4428 • Class of antidepressant co-medication (SSRI vs. SNRI) 4429 4430 • Number of prior treatment failures (i.e., 1, 2, or 3) 4431 4432 • Single episode versus recurrent major depressive disorder 4433 4434 • Length of current episode (≤ 1 year vs. > 1 year) 4435 4436 4437 The MMRM model described in Section 4.4.1.3 will be modified by adding the 4438 categorical effect subgroup (if not already in the model) and replacing the treatment 4439 effect by treatment nested in subgroup, both as effect on its own and as part of the 4440 treatment-time interaction.

The 4685 LOCF dataset includes data recorded at a given visit or, if no observation was recorded 4686 at that visit, data carried forward from the previous post-baseline visit. To perform an 4687 efficacy analysis at Day 42, the last observed post-baseline value up to 6 days after the 4688 last dose day of patients who dropped out of the study before Week 6, whether 4689 scheduled or unscheduled, will be carried forward to Week 6. Baseline data will not be 4690 carried forward or averaged with post-treatment data to impute missing values for the 4691 LOCF dataset. 4692 4693 To understand the pattern of missing data observed during the study and, thus, the 4694 missing data mechanism, the following data will be summarized: 4695 • Timing of discontinuations by treatment group 4696 4697 • Reasons for discontinuation by treatment group and time 4698 4699 • Mean of the primary efficacy variable of those who dropped out versus those who 4700 remained at each scheduled assessment week.

4993 4994 PROCEDURES (summary): Screening Period (up to 14 days) 4995 During the screening period, informed consent will be obtained, and the investigator will 4996 determine whether the candidate meets all inclusion criteria and does not meet any 4997 exclusion criteria. 4998 4999 6-Week Double-blind Treatment Period 5000 In order to be randomized into the double-blind treatment period, patients must have at 5001 baseline: 5002 • No significant risk of suicidal behavior (e.g., consider the Suicidal Ideation section of 5003 the C-SSRS “Since Last Visit” for this evaluation) 5004 5005 • No significant change in medical or psychiatric condition, or change in medications 5006 since screening (unless agreed with the Sponsor/Medical Monitor) 5007 5008 • Negative result on the Baseline pregnancy test (if applicable) 5009 5010 • No change in ongoing antidepressant therapy, and ability to continue for the 5011 duration of the double-blind treatment period without modification to the dosing 5012 schedule 5013 5014 • An ESF/EAF approved by the Sponsor/Medical Monitor 5015 5016 5017 The double-blind treatment period begins with the investigational site call into IVRS 5018 confirming the patient’s eligibility. The patient will be randomized and receive their first 5019 dose of study medication on Day 1. 5020 5021 Dose 1 of the blinded study medication is to be administered in the clinic immediately 5022 after a meal and before 12 pm (noon), or soon thereafter upon consultation with the 5023 Sponsor/Medical Monitor, once all baseline procedures and assessments are 5024 completed. Patients will remain at the clinic for 6 hours after the first dose for safety 5025 monitoring and for the PK samples (according to clinical observation and patient 5026 availability). Subsequently, dosing will be once daily in the morning immediately after 5027 breakfast. 5028 5029 As with any experimental drug at this stage of development, it is advisable for patients 5030 not to drive or operate dangerous machinery until known side effects (e.g., dizziness and 5031 somnolence) can be adequately assessed on an individual basis during the trial. 5032 5033 Patients will arrive at each study visit without having taken their daily dose of study 5034 medication, and site staff will record the time of their last dose. Following collection of the 5035 pre-dose PK blood sample (if applicable) and a meal, patients will take their next dose of 5036 study medication before 12 pm (noon) or soon thereafter upon consultation with the 5037 Sponsor/Medical Monitor. The last dose of study medication will be administered on Day 5038 42 (End-of-Treatment visit).

5039 Early Discontinuers will be instructed to return as soon as possible for the End-of- 5040 Treatment visit, and 21 days later for the Follow-up visit. 5041 5042 Follow-up Period (21 days) 5043 A Follow-up Visit will take place 21 days after the End-of-Treatment visit. During the 5044 follow-up period, adjustments to antidepressant treatments may be initiated if deemed 5045 necessary by the investigator. 5046 5047 STATISTICAL ANALYSES: 5048 Main efficacy analysis will be performed in a confirmatory manner based on ITT 5049 population, using a mixed effects covariance pattern model (MMRM) to utilize all the 5050 data collected over time. A closed testing procedure will be used to take multiple 5051 comparisons into account. As supporting analysis, the analysis may be repeated on the 5052 per-protocol population. Another supportive analysis will use an ANCOVA with LOCF 5053 imputation for missing data. The primary efficacy variable is change in the Montgomery 5054 Asberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS) total score from baseline to end of treatment. 5055 5056 All safety variables (e.g., adverse events, lab tests, ECG, vital signs, BPRS, YMRS, 5057 ASEX) will be summarized for each assessment time (including follow-up) using 5058 descriptive statistics. The items of the C-SSRS will be presented by individual listings 5059 and the outcomes from this scale will be classified using the C-CASA methodology. 5060
