Detailed Description

This is a phase II, multi-centre, randomised, double-blind, controlled study. The study population will include participants aged ≥18 years with recurrent Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) with up to four prior treatment failures of an antidepressant in their current depressive episode.

Overall, 102 participants will be randomised in a 1:1:1 ratio to receive COMP360 25 mg, COMP360 10mg or COMP360 1 mg.

In this study the aim is to investigate the safety and tolerability of COMP360, administered with psychological support, in adult participants with MDD with one prior treatment failure. In addition, pharmacokinetics and efficacy of COMP360 will be investigated.

The study will last up to 16 weeks including a three- to ten-week Screening Period and a six-week follow-up from investigational product (IP) administration.
