Eligibility

Inclusion Criteria:

• Has a diagnosis of Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) without psychotic features as confirmed by the Mini International Neuropsychiatric Interview (MINI)

• Treatment with an selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI)/serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor (SNRI) for at least 6 weeks at an adequate dose (per Massachusetts General Hospital-Antidepressant Treatment Response Questionnaire [MGH-ATRQ]). Specifically, one of the following in any formulation is allowed: SSRIs: citalopram, duloxetine, escitalopram, fluvoxamine, fluoxetine, milnacipran, levomilnacipran, paroxetine, sertraline; SNRIs: venlafaxine, desvenlafaxine, vilazodone, or vortioxetine

• In the opinion of the treating clinician, the participant requires augmentation of the current antidepressant treatment and plans to initiate augmentation treatment in the near future. The participant has agreed to receive augmentation treatment

• Is currently an outpatient receiving psychiatric care (not inpatient care settings)

• Has a body mass index (BMI) of 18-40 kilograms per meter square (Kg/m^2), inclusive

Exclusion Criteria:

• Taking more than one antidepressant (regardless of class) at therapeutic doses (therapeutic doses per MGH-ATRQ). A second antidepressant is allowed to be taken at a lower dose if for sleep or pain management

• Is currently taking a benzodiazepine at higher doses than the equivalent of 3 milligrams (mg) of lorazepam

• Current diagnosis of a psychotic disorder including MDD with psychosis, bipolar disorder, intellectual disability, dementia, autism spectrum disorder, borderline personality disorder, or somatoform disorders

• Has treatment resistant depression (TRD) as defined by lack of response (less than [<] 25 percent [%] improvement) of 2 or more antidepressants of adequate dose (per MGH-ATRQ) and duration (6 weeks) in this episode

• Current diagnosis of PTSD, obsessive compulsive disorder, fibromyalgia, anorexia nervosa, or bulimia nervosa. Participants may be enrolled if they have been in remission for the past year

Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Primary	Number of Participants with Spontaneously Reported Adverse Events (AEs)	Number of participants with spontaneously reported AEs will be reported. An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a participant participating in a clinical study that does not necessarily have a causal relationship with the pharmaceutical/biological agent under study.	Up to 1 year
Primary	Number of Participants with AEs Collected through Generic Assessment of Side Effects (GASE)	Number of participants with AEs collected through GASE will be reported. The GASE is an instrument to assess side effects in clinical studies that allows the detection of drug induced AEs.	Up to 1 year
Primary	Number of Participants with Hospitalization for Psychiatric Reasons	Number of participants with hospitalizations for psychiatric reasons will be reported.	Up to 1 year
Primary	Number of Participants with Hospitalization for Medical Reasons	Number of participants with hospitalizations for medical reasons will be reported.	Up to 1 year
Primary	Number of Participants with Other Serious Adverse Events (SAEs)	SAE is any untoward medical occurrence that at any dose results in any of the following outcomes: death; initial or prolonged inpatient hospitalization; life-threatening experience (immediate risk of dying); persistent or significant disability/incapacity; congenital anomaly/birth defect; suspected transmission of any infectious agent via a medicinal product or medically important.	Up to 1 year
Primary	Number of Participants with Deaths	Number of participants with deaths will be reported.	Up to 1 year
Primary	Number of Participants with Suicide Attempts and Completed Suicides	Number of participants with suicide attempts and completed suicides will be reported.	Up to 1 year
Primary	Suicidality Assessment Using the Columbia Suicide Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS) Score	Suicidality assessment using the C-SSRS will be reported. C-SSRS is semi structured clinician-administered questionnaire designed to solicit the occurrence, severity, and frequency of suicide-related ideation and behaviors. Scale consists of 28 items in 4 sections: suicide behavior, actual attempts, suicidal ideation, and intensity of ideation. Suicidal ideation consists of 5 yes/no items: wish to be dead, non-specific active suicidal thoughts, active suicidal ideation with any methods (not plan) without intention to act, active suicidal ideation with some intent to act without specific plan, active suicidal ideation with specific plan and intent. Worsening of suicidal ideation will be an increase in severity of suicidal ideation from baseline.	Up to 1 year
Primary	Number of Participants with Suicidal Ideation as Assessed by C-SSRS	Number of participants with suicidal ideation as assessed by C-SSRS, particularly codes of 4 or 5 will be reported. C-SSRS is semi structured clinician-administered questionnaire designed to solicit the occurrence, severity, and frequency of suicide-related ideation and behaviors. Scale consists of 28 items in 4 sections: suicide behavior, actual attempts, suicidal ideation, and intensity of ideation. Suicidal ideation consists of 5 yes/no items: wish to be dead, non-specific active suicidal thoughts, active suicidal ideation with any methods (not plan) without intention to act, active suicidal ideation with some intent to act without specific plan, active suicidal ideation with specific plan and intent. Worsening of suicidal ideation will be an increase in severity of suicidal ideation from baseline.	Up to 1 year
Secondary	Number of Participants with Adverse Events of Special Interest (AESI)	Number of participants with AESI: Cataplexy, Sleep paralysis, Complex sleep-related behaviors, Falls, Motor vehicle accidents will be reported.	Up to 1 year
Secondary	Change from Baseline in Weight Over Time	Change from baseline in weight over time will be reported.	Baseline (Week 1) up to 1 year
Secondary	Percentage of Participants with Clinically Meaningful Change in Weight	Percentage of participants with clinically meaningful change in weight (greater than or equal to [>=] 7 percent [%]) from baseline to end of study will be reported.	Baseline (Week 1) to end of study (up to 1 Year)

Secondary	Change from Baseline in Red Blood Cell (RBC) Count Over Time	Change from baseline in RBC count over time will be reported.	Baseline (Week 1), Week 26 and Week 52
Secondary	Change from Baseline in Sodium, Potassium, Chloride and Bicarbonate Level Over Time	Change from baseline in sodium, potassium, chloride and bicarbonate level over time will be reported.	Baseline (Week 1), Week 26 and Week 52
