Official title

A Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Study Followed by Open-Label Treatment of ALTO-100 in Adults With Bipolar Disorder Currently Experiencing a Major Depressive Episode

Overview

The purpose of this study is to assess antidepressant efficacy differences between ALTO-100 and placebo during the Double-Blind period in patients with bipolar disorder I or II with current major depressive episode, when used adjunctively to a mood stabilizer and/or atypical antipsychotic, related to patient characteristics. Additionally, safety, tolerability, and efficacy will be assessed in a subsequent open label treatment period.

Interventions

  • Drug ALTO-100
    ALTO-100 40 mg tablet BID
  • Drug Placebo
    Placebo tablet BID

Primary outcome measures

  • To assess efficacy of ALTO-100 versus placebo on depression symptoms in bipolar disorder in a pre-defined subgroup of participants as measured by the mean change from Day 1 to Week 6 on the Montgomery-Åsberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS) total score [Time frame: Change assessed from Day 1 to Week 6]
Secondary outcome measures (9)
  • To assess efficacy of ALTO-100 vs placebo for self-reported depressive symptoms in bipolar disorder patients in a pre- defined subgroup of participants as measured by the change from Day 1 to Week 6 in Patient Health Questionnaire, 9 item (PHQ-9) [Time frame: Assessed 4 times over a 6-week interval, from Day 1 to Week 6]
  • To assess efficacy of ALTO-100 vs placebo in severity of bipolar disorder symptoms in a pre-defined subgroup of participants as measured by the change from Day 1 to Week 6 in Clinician Global Impression Scale-severity (CGI-S) [Time frame: Assessed 4 times over a 6-week interval, from Day 1 to Week 6]
  • To assess efficacy of ALTO-100 vs placebo for depressive symptoms in MDD in a pre-defined subgroup as measured by the change from Day 1 to Week 6 in response (>50% improvement from baseline) and remission (total score of <10) rates based on MADRS [Time frame: Assessed 4 times over a 6-week interval, from Day 1 to Week 6]
  • To assess efficacy of ALTO-100 vs placebo on depressive symptoms in bipolar disorder in all randomized participants as measured by the change from Day 1 to Week 6 on the MADRS [Time frame: Assessed 4 times over a 6-week interval, from Day 1 to Week 6]
  • To evaluate the safety of ALTO-100 during both the DB and OL periods of the study as measured by the assessment of the incidence, severity, and relatedness of Treatment Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs), SAEs, discontinuation due to TEAEs and deaths [Time frame: Assessed from Day 1 to Week 13]
  • To evaluate the safety of ALTO-100 during both the DB and OL periods of the study as measured by the assessment of Heart Rate in bpm [Time frame: Assessed from Day 1 to Week 13]
  • To evaluate the safety of ALTO-100 during both the DB and OL periods of the study as measured by the assessment of Blood Pressure in mmHg [Time frame: Assessed from Day 1 to Week 13]
  • To evaluate the safety of ALTO-100 during both the DB and OL periods of the study as measured by the assessment of Weight in pounds [Time frame: Assessed from Day 1 to Week 13]
  • To evaluate the safety of ALTO-100 during both the DB and OL periods of the study as measured by the assessment of suicidality with the Concise Health Risk Tracking Self-Report,12 item scale (CHRT-SR12) [Time frame: Assessed from Day 1 to Week 13]
