Major depressive disorder (MDD) is a common mental disorder with a high rate of morbidity and mortality. Dysfunctional signaling of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) has been implicated in some studies in the etiology of MDD. Zuranolone (SAGE-217) is a novel, oral neuroactive steroid and an investigational positive allosteric modulator of synaptic and extrasynaptic GABAA receptors. Herein, we aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Zuranolone in individuals with MDD. We reviewed seven studies including 1662 participants with MDD. Zuranolone was investigated as an oral, once-daily, 14-day treatment course. The results of our synthesis indicate that the antidepressant effects of Zuranolone are rapid, clinically meaningful, and replicated across multiple randomized clinical trials. In addition to replicated efficacy, Zuranolone is associated with an acceptable level of treatment-emergent adverse events and discontinuation without serious adverse events. It is believed that Zuranolone's antidepressant effects arise from its ability to enhance inhibitory GABAergic signaling by increasing synaptic and extrasynaptic GABAA activity and regulation of GABAA receptor expression. Taken together, preliminary evidence suggests the potential for antidepressant effects of Zuranolone. Zuranolone has been approved by FDA for postpartum depression, and is showing efficacy in major depressive disorder. Future research vistas should seek to determine the durability of this treatment approach as well as its effects on domain-specific outcomes (e.g., anhedonia, circadian rhythm, arousal systems) along with application in other diagnostic entities (e.g., bipolar depression).
