About SPRAVATO® SMDD
The first and only NMDA receptor antagonist approved for 2 subtypes of MDD in adult patients1
SPRAVATO® hypothesized mechanism of action (MOA)

UNMET NEED IN MDSI

17.6 million adults are estimated to have MDD in the US.5

11.5% of these patients have active suicidal ideation with intent.5

These patients need timely attention, but a newly administered oral antidepressant may take 4 to 6 weeks to reach full effect.6
SPRAVATO® clinical program overview
Studied in 449 adult patients with moderate to severe MDD who had active suicidal ideation with intent, across all studies
BASELINE PATIENT CHARACTERISTICS1

Patients included in MDSI trials had active suicidal ideation or behavior that was characterized by the following:
• Thinking (even momentarily) about harming or hurting or injuring oneself
• Having awareness that they might die as a result of self-harm
• Intend to act on thoughts of killing oneself

Patients had a mean MADRS score of 40

Patients reported active, acute suicidal ideation within 24 hours prior to their first dose of study medication
MADRS=Montgomery-Åsberg Depression Rating Scale.

• Patients in both arms received comprehensive standard-of-care (SOC) treatment, including an initial inpatient psychiatric hospitalization and a newly initiated or optimized oral antidepressant (AD) therapy (AD monotherapy or AD plus augmentation) as determined by the investigator
