Change from the baseline to the Montgomery Åsberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS) total score. The Montgomery Åsberg Depression Rating Scale consists of 10 items, each rated from 0 to 6 (for a total score of 0 to 60). A higher score represents a higher severity of the level of depression.

Change from baseline in the Clinical Global Impression - Severity of Illness (CGI-S). Clinical Global Impression - Severity of Illness will be measured on a scale from 1-7 where a higher score represents a higher severity of disease.

Inclusion Criteria: Male and Female subjects between 18-65 years of age, with a primary diagnosis of major depressive disorder and in a current major depressive episode Current major depressive episode must be at least 8 weeks and no longer than 2 years in duration History of an inadequate response to at least 1 and no more than 3 antidepressant treatments in the current major depressive episode Exclusion Criteria: Subjects who report an inadequate response to more than 3 antidepressant treatments in the current episode Subjects with a lifetime history of schizophrenia spectrum or other psychotic disorder, bipolar or related disorder, major or mild neurocognitive disorder, neurodevelopmental disorder of greater than mild severity or of a severity that impacts the participant's ability to consent/ follow study directions/ or otherwise safely participate in the study, borderline or antisocial personality disorder.

Anonymized Individual participant data (IPD) that underlie the results of this study will be shared with researchers to achieve aims pre-specified in a methodologically sound research proposal. Small studies with less than 25 participants are excluded from data sharing.

Data will be available after marketing approval in global markets, or beginning 1-3 years following article publication. There is no end date to the availability of the data.

Otsuka will share data on the Vivli data sharing platform which can be found here: https://vivli.org/ourmember/Otsuka/
