1.Primary Outcome
Title Hamilton Rating Scale for Depression - 6 Items
Hide Description The HAMD6 is a 6-item clinician-rated scale, where clinicians rate the presence of depression symptoms (i.e., depressed mood, guilt, work and interests, psychomotor retardation, psychic anxiety, somatic symptoms) on a 5-point scale, where 0 = not present, and 1-4 represent increasingly severe symptoms. One item (i.e., somatic symptoms) is rated on only a 3-point scale, ranging from 0-2. The possible scale range is 0-22, where higher values represent more severe depression. This instrument is completed with a structured interview guide by the clinician based on his/her assessment of the patient's symptoms. This structured interview has been validated for use with time frames shorter than one week. In this study, the HAMD6 was used to assess symptoms occurring in the past 24 hours.
Time Frame A baseline assessment was made on Day 0, preceding infusion (i.e., treatment). Outcome assessments were made on days 1, 3, 5, 7, 14, and 30. The primary endpoint for this study was Day 3. Thus, the outcome measure table provides data on Days 0, 1, & 3

2.Secondary Outcome
Title Montgomery-Asberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS)
Hide Description The MADRS is a 10-item clinician-rated scale measuring depression severity. Symptoms are rated on a 7-point scale, where 0 = "not present", and 1-6 represent increasing severity. Values 2, 4, and 6 have specific anchoring text (e.g., 2="Difficulties in starting activities." 4="Difficulties in starting simple routine activities which are carried out with effort, 6="Complete lassitude. Unable to do anything without help.") Values 1, 3, and 5 do not have specific text. The possible scale range is 0-60, where higher values represent higher severity. In this study, the MADRS was used to rate symptoms occurring in the past 3 days.
Time Frame A baseline assessment was made on Day 0, preceding infusion (i.e., treatment). Outcome assessments were made on days 3, 5, 7, 14, and 30. The primary endpoint for this study was Day 3. Thus, the outcome measure table provides data on Days 0 and 3.

As estimated by the repeated measures fixed effects model with DAY (0, 3), GROUP (5 groups as specified above), and the DAY*GROUP interaction effect. Because there were four pairwise comparisons of interest (see Analysis 1-4), we used Holm's method to protect family-wise error rate in the presence of multiple testing.

3.Secondary Outcome
Title Clinical Global Impressions-Severity (CGI-S)
Hide Description The CGI-S is a clinician rated single-item scale: "How depressed is the patient at this time?", rated on a 7-point response scale: 1 = Normal, not at all depressed, 2 = Borderline depressed, 3 = Mildly depressed, 4 = Moderately depressed. 5 = Markedly depressed, 6 = severely depressed, 7 = Among the most severely depressed patients. When rating patients, clinicians were asked to consider the past 24 hours.
Time Frame A baseline assessment was made on Day 0, preceding infusion (i.e., treatment). Outcome assessments were made on days 1, 3, 5, 7, 14, and 30. The primary endpoint for this study was Day 3. Thus, the outcome measure table provides data on Days 0, 1 and 3

4.Secondary Outcome
Title Clinical Global Impressions-Improvement (CGI-I) Scale
Hide Description The CGI-I is a clinician rated single-item scale: "Compared to the patient's condition at admission, how much has the patient changed?", rated on a 7-point response scale: 1 = Very much improved, 2 = Much improved, 3 = Minimally improved, 4 = No change, 5 = Minimally worse, 6 = Much worse, and 7 = Very much worse. In this case, "admission" referred to the CGI-S screening assessments performed between Day -28 an -7, one conducted during the screening visit, and a second rating conducted by a remote, independent rater.
Time Frame A baseline assessment was made on Day 0, preceding infusion (i.e., treatment). Outcome assessments were made on days 1, 3, 5, 7, 14, and 30. The primary endpoint for this study was Day 3. Thus, the outcome measure table provides data on Days 0, 1 and 3

5.Secondary Outcome
Title Symptoms of Depression Questionnaire (SDQ)
Hide Description The SDQ is a 44-item self-report scale, which aims to measure depression more comprehensively by including the assessment of symptoms in the anxiety-depression spectrum, including symptoms of irritability, anger attacks, and anxiety. Items are rated on an 6-point Likert scale, where participants are asked to rate if a specific symptom (e.g. "How has your mood been over the past 24 hours?") is normal for him or her (score = 2), what is better than normal (score = 1), and what is worse than normal (scores = 3-6). The total scale score is calculated by averaging across the items, resulting in a possible range from 1 to 6. Higher scores indicate greater depression severity. When rating, patients were asked to consider their symptoms during the past 24 hours.
Time Frame A baseline assessment was made on Day 0, preceding infusion (i.e., treatment). Outcome assessments were made on days 1, 3, 5, 7, 14, and 30. The primary endpoint for this study was Day 3. Thus, the outcome measure table provides data on Days 0, 1 and 3

6.Secondary Outcome
Title Clinical Positive Affect Scale (CPAS)
Hide Description The CPAS is a 16-item self-report scale to assess the level to which participants experience persistent distress due to feeling that they have not returned to their normal or premorbid state. Items (e.g., "I look forward to things") are rated on a 5-point scale (0=not at all, 1=very much less than normal, 2=much less than normal, 3=slightly less than normal, 4=same as best or normal self). The possible scale range is 0 to 64, with higher scores indicating greater recovery from depression. Patients were asked to rate their experience of the past 24 hours.
Time Frame A baseline assessment was made on Day 0, preceding infusion (i.e., treatment). Outcome assessments were made on days 1, 3, 5, 7, 14, and 30. The primary endpoint for this study was Day 3. Thus, the outcome measure table provides data on Days 0, 1 and 3

7.Secondary Outcome
Title Snaith-Hamilton Pleasure-Scale (SHAPS)
Hide Description The SHAPS is a 14-item self-report scale to measure hedonic tone. Items (e.g., "I would enjoy reading a book, magazine, or newspaper.") are rated on a 4-point scale (1=strongly disagree, 2=disagree, 3=agree, 4=strongly agree). Either of the 'disagree' responses scores 1 point, and either of the 'agree' responses scores 0 points, for a total scale range of 0-14. Higher scores indicate greater inability to experience pleasure. Patients were asked to rate their experience of the past 24 hours.
Time Frame A baseline assessment was made on Day 0, preceding infusion (i.e., treatment). Outcome assessments were made on days 1, 3, 5, 7, 14, and 30. The primary endpoint for this study was Day 3. Thus, the outcome measure table provides data on Days 0, 1 and 3

8.Secondary Outcome
Title Clinician-Administered Dissociative States Scale (CADSS) Scores During Infusion
Hide Description The CADSS is a 23-item self-report scale for the assessment of dissociative states. It is a reliable, valid self-report instrument. The severity of each dissociative symptom ranges from 0 (not present) to 4 (extreme). The total score is calculated by summing across items, with a total possible range of 0-92. The CADSS was administered right before infusion, and 40, 80 minute and 120 minutes after the start of infusion. The timeframe is "at this moment".

Title Number of Participants Reporting Suicidal Ideation/Behavior on the Columbia Suicide Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS)
Hide Description The Columbia Suicide Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS): The C-SSRS is a low-burden measure of the spectrum of suicidal ideation and behavior that was developed in the National Institute of Mental Health Treatment of Adolescent Suicide Attempters Study to assess severity and track suicidal events through any treatment. It is a clinical interview providing a summary of both ideation and behavior that can be administered during any evaluation or risk assessment to identify the level and type of suicidality present. The C-SSRS can also be used during treatment to monitor for clinical worsening or improvement. It contains 5 rating scale questions (yes/no) for suicidal ideation increasing severity and 5 rating scale questions (yes/no) for suicidal behavior of increasing severity. The time frame is for both lifetime and the past six months for the Baseline/Screening scale and since the last visit for the Since Last Visit scale.
