Title: A Randomised, Double-blind, Parallel-group, Active-controlled, Flexible Dose Study Evaluating the Effects of [Vortioxetine] Lu AA21004 Versus Agomelatine in Adult Patients Suffering From Major Depressive Disorder With Inadequate Response to Antidepressant Treatment
Brief Summary: The objective of the present study is to evaluate whether vortioxetine (10 or 20 mg/day) is at least as effective as agomelatine (25 to 50 mg/day) in patients with depressive symptoms that showed inadequate response to Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors (SRI) antidepressants.
