September 16, 2025 updated by: Janssen-Cilag Ltd.

Open-label Long-Term Extension Study for Participants With Treatment-Resistant Major Depressive Disorder Who Are Continuing Esketamine Nasal Spray Treatment From Study 54135419TRD3013

The primary purpose of this study is to assess the long-term safety and tolerability of esketamine nasal spray in combination with a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor/serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor (SSRI/SNRI) in participants who have completed 32 weeks of esketamine nasal spray treatment in Study 54135419TRD3013 (NCT04338321).

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: Esketamine
Participants who were randomly assigned to the esketamine arm in Study 54135419TRD3013 (NCT04338321), had esketamine nasal spray administered through Week 30 (every 2 weeks dosing) or Week 31 (once weekly dosing), completed the maintenance phase at Week 32 will continue to receive esketamine nasal spray once weekly or every 2 weeks along with serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor/selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI/SNRI) in this long-term extension (LTE) study. The duration of the study participation is 2 years or when esketamine is commercially available.
Esketamine will be self-administered as nasal spray.
Participants will continue to take SSRI/SNRI that is approved for use in depression in their country of participation; off-label use of any SSRI/SNRI is not permitted. The continuing SSRI/SNRI dosage may be optimized throughout the study, at the investigator's discretion and based on the summary of product characteristics (SmPC) (or local equivalent, if applicable). During this LTE study, investigators will be allowed to switch individual participant's SSRI/SNRI for tolerability issues.

Number of participants with suicidal ideation and behavior in study 54135419TRD4010 as assessed by C-SSRS score were reported.

Suicidal ideation (5 items): wish to be dead, non-specific active suicidal thoughts, active suicidal ideation with any methods (not plan) without intention to act, active suicidal ideation with some intent to act without specific plan, and active suicidal ideation with specific plan and intent. Suicidal behavior (5 items): preparatory acts or behavior, aborted attempt, interrupted attempt, actual attempt (non-fatal), and suicide. Total score from 10 categories was summarized into 3 categories: No suicidal ideation or behavior (0), Suicidal ideation (1 to 5), Suicidal behavior (6 to 10). Total score ranged from 0 to 10. Higher scores indicated more severe suicidal ideation and behavior.

Time Frame: Baseline (Day 1 of Study 54135419TRD3013) up to Week 104 of study 54135419TRD4010 (up to Week 136)
Relapse was defined by any of the following: a) Worsening of depressive symptoms as indicated by Montgomery-Asberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS) total score >=22 confirmed by 1 additional assessment of MADRS total score >=22 within the next 5 to 31 days. b) Any psychiatric hospitalization for: 1) worsening of depression, 2) suicide prevention or due to a suicide attempt for any of these events. c) Suicide attempt, completed suicide, or any other clinically relevant event determined per investigator's clinical judgment to be indicative of relapse of depressive illness, but for which participant was not hospitalized. MADRS scale consisted of 10 items, scored from 0 (item is not present or is normal) to 6 (severe or continuous presence of the symptoms), for a total possible score of 0 to 60. Higher scores represented a more severe condition.

Higher scores represented a more severe condition. The MADRS evaluated reported sadness, apparent sadness, inner tension, reduced sleep, reduced appetite, concentration difficulties, lassitude, inability to feel, pessimistic thoughts, and suicidal thoughts.

Change from Baseline of Study 54135419TRD3013 in CGI-S scale score were reported. The CGI-S provided an overall clinician-determined summary measure of the severity of the participant's illness that took into account all available information, including knowledge of the participant's history, psychosocial circumstances, symptoms, behavior, and the impact of the symptoms on the participant's ability to function. The CGI-S evaluated the severity of psychopathology on a scale of 1 to 7: where, 1 = normal (not ill); 2 = borderline mentally ill; 3 = mildly ill; 4 = moderately ill; 5 = markedly ill; 6 = severely ill; 7 = among the most extremely ill participant's. Negative change in score indicated improvement. Participant's with a score of zero were considered missing.

Change From Baseline of Study 54135419TRD3013 in Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ) 9-item Total Score
Time Frame: Baseline (Day 1 of study 54135419TRD3013) up to weeks 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, 28, 32, 36, 40, 44, 48, 52, 56, 60, 64, 68, 72, 76, 80, 84, 88, 92, 96, 100, and 104 of study 54135419TRD4010
Change from Baseline of Study 54135419TRD3013 in PHQ 9-item total score were reported. The PHQ-9 was a validated 9-item, patient-reported outcome (PRO) measure to assess depressive symptoms. Each item was rated on a 4-point scale (0=not at all, 1=several days, 2=more than half the days, and 3=nearly every day). The participant's item responses were summed to a total score with a range of 0 to 27. Higher scores indicated greater severity of depressive symptoms.

Change From Baseline of Study 54135419TRD3013 in European Quality of Life (EuroQol) 5 Dimension 5-Level (EQ-5D-5L): Health Status Index
Time Frame: Baseline (Day 1 of Study 54135419TRD3013) up to weeks 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, 28, 32, 36, 40, 44, 48, 52, 56, 60, 64, 68, 72, 76, 80, 84, 88, 92, 96, 100, and 104 of study 54135419TRD4010
Change from baseline of Study 54135419TRD3013 in EQ-5D-5LQuestionnaire Score: health status index were reported. The EQ-5D-5L descriptive system comprised the following 5 dimensions: mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort and anxiety/depression. Each of the 5 dimensions were divided into 5 levels of perceived problems (level 1 = no problem, level 2 = slight problems, level 3 = moderate problems, level 4 = severe problems, level 5 = extreme problems). The participant selected an answer for each of the 5 dimensions considering a response that best matched participant's health "today." Responses were used to generate health status index ranged from -0.594 to 1 (where 1 represents full health and negative values represent health states considered worse than dead). Positive change in score indicated improvement.

Change From Baseline of Study 54135419TRD3013 in European Quality of Life (EuroQol) 5 Dimension 5-Level (EQ-5D-5L): Visual Analogue Scale (VAS)
Time Frame: Baseline (Day 1 of Study 54135419TRD3013) up to weeks 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, 28, 32, 36, 40, 44, 48, 52, 56, 60, 64, 68, 72, 76, 80, 84, 88, 92, 96, 100, and 104 of study 54135419TRD4010
Change from baseline of Study 54135419TRD3013 in EQ-5D-5L: visual analogue scale were reported. EQ-VAS self-rating recorded the participant's own assessment of his/her overall health status at time of completion, on a scale of 0 (worst health you can imagine) to 100 (best health you can imagine). Positive change in score indicated improvement.
