Double Blind (DB) Treatment Phase: Change from Baseline in Montgomery-Asberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS) Total Score in Participants with Major Depressive Disorder with Moderate-to-Severe Insomnia Symptoms (MDDIS)
Zeitfenster: Baseline up to Day 43
The MADRS is a clinician-administered scale designed to measure depression severity and detects changes due to antidepressant treatment. The scale consists of 10 items, each of which is scored from 0 (item not present or normal) to 6 (severe or continuous presence of the symptoms), for a total possible score of 60. Higher scores represent a more severe condition.
Baseline up to Day 43
Open-Label (OL) Treatment Phase: Number of Participants with Adverse Events Including Adverse Event of Special Interests (AESIs)
Zeitfenster: OL Baseline (Day 43) Up to 6 months
An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical study participant administered with a pharmaceutical (investigational or non investigational) product. An AE does not necessarily have a causal relationship with the intervention. The following AESIs are considered in this study: Suicidal thoughts, suicidal ideation, and suicidal behavior; Cataplexy; Sleep paralysis; Complex, sleep-related behaviors/parasomnias; Fall and Motor vehicle accident.
OL Baseline (Day 43) Up to 6 months

DB Treatment Phase: Change from Baseline in MADRS-Without Sleep Item (WOSI) Total Score
Zeitfenster: Baseline up to Day 43
MADRS-WOSI considered 9 of the 10 MADRS items, excluding "reduced sleep" item. The total score ranged from 0 to 54, with higher scores corresponding to greater symptom severity.
Baseline up to Day 43
DB Treatment Phase: Change from Baseline in Sleep Disturbance using Patient Reported Outcome Measurement Information System-Sleep Disturbance (PROMIS-SD) Short Form 10a(8a + 2a ) T-score
Zeitfenster: Baseline up to Day 43
The PROMIS-SD is used to assess self-reported perceptions of sleep quality, sleep depth and restoration associated with sleep. The full PROMIS-SD includes 27 items with each item based on a 7-day recall period and assessed on a 5 level Likert-type scale. The 10-item short form will be used, in which responses are scored 1 to 5 for each item. T-score for the PROMIS-SD scales represent the value obtained after using a conversion table to convert the total raw score. To find the total raw score for a short form with all questions answered, sum the values of the response to each question. For example, for the adult 10-item form, the lowest possible raw score is 10; the highest possible raw score is 50. Higher overall score indicates more sleep disturbance.
Baseline up to Day 43
DB Treatment phase: Change from Baseline in MADRS-6 Total Score
Zeitfenster: Baseline up to Day 43
The MADRS-6 scale is a clinician-administered questionnaire used to measure the severity of major depressive disorder (MDD) symptoms. The MADRS-6 scale is a subset of the MADRS -10 scale, comprised of the following individual questionnaire items: apparent sadness, reported sadness, inner tension, lassitude, inability to feel, and pessimistic thoughts. Scores range from 0 (no apparent symptoms) to 36 (most severe symptoms).
Baseline up to Day 43
DB Treatment Phase: Proportion of Participants with Response on Depressive Symptoms Scale

The 8-item short form will be used in this study, in which responses are scored 1 to 5 for each item. T-score for the PROMIS-SD scales represent the value obtained after using a conversion table to convert the total raw score. To find the total raw score for a short form with all questions answered, sum the values of the response to each question. For example, for the adult 8-item form, the lowest possible raw score is 8; the highest possible raw score is 40. Higher overall score indicates more sleep disturbance.
Baseline up to Day 43
DB Treatment Phase: Change from Baseline in Patient Health Questionnaire 9-Item (PHQ-9) Total Score
Zeitfenster: Baseline up to Day 43
The PHQ-9 is a 9-item, participant reported outcome measure to assess depressive symptoms. The scale scores each of the 9 symptom domains of the DSM-5 MDD criteria. Each item is 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 are summed to provide a total score (range of 0 to 27), with higher scores indicating greater severity of depressive symptoms.

DB Period: Change from Baseline in Work Productivity and Activity Impairment Questionnaire, Depression (WPAI-D) Scores
Zeitfenster: Baseline up to Day 43
The WPAI-D questionnaire is a patient-reported instrument to measure impairments in both paid work and unpaid work. It measures absenteeism, presenteeism as well as the impairments in unpaid activity because of health problems during the past 7 days. The WPAI yields four types of scores: (a) Absenteeism (work time missed); (b) Presenteeism (impairment at work / reduced on-the-job effectiveness); (c) Work productivity loss (overall work impairment / absenteeism plus presenteeism); (d) Activity Impairment. The first three scores are derived only for respondents who were working (should be missing for non-working), but the last score is applicable for all respondents. Each score ranges from 0 to 100 with higher scores indicating greater impairment and less productivity. Negative changes in score indicates less impairment and greater productivity.
Baseline up to Day 43
OL Treatment Phase: Change from Baseline Over Time in MADRS Total Score
Zeitfenster: OL Baseline (Day 43) up to 6 months
The MADRS is a clinician-administered scale designed to measure depression severity and detects changes due to antidepressant treatment.
