Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

* Postmenopausal status defined by 12 consecutive months of spontaneous amenorrhea; less than 12 consecutive months with at least 6 consecutive months of spontaneous amenorrhea and a pre-baseline follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) level \>40 mIU/mL; or 6 months postsurgical bilateral oophorectomy (with or without hysterectomy). Perimenopausal women defined by the presence of any of the following within 6 months before baseline:

1. an absolute change of 7 days or more in menstrual cycle length within 6 months before baseline;
2. a change in menstrual flow amount (2 or more flow categories, eg, from light or moderately light to moderately heavy or heavy);
3. a change in duration (absolute change of 2 or more days); or
4. periods of amenorrhea lasting at least 3 months.
* A primary diagnosis of major depressive disorder (MDD) based on the criteria in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fourth Edition-Text Revision (DSM-IV-TR), single or recurrent episode, without psychotic features using the modified Mini International Neuropsychiatric Interview (MINI).
* A Montgomery and Asberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS) total score \>=25 at the screening and baseline (day -1) visits and no more than a 5-point improvement from screening to baseline.

Exclusion Criteria

* Treatment with DVS SR (Pristiq®) at any time in the past and/or venlafaxine, ie, Effexor® or Effexor XR®, 1 year prior to baseline.
* Treatment-resistant; eg, in the past 3 years if any of the following treatments have failed: (a) 3 or more previous adequate trials of \>=2 classes of antidepressant medication, (b) electroconvulsive therapy, or (c) 2 adequate trials of psychotherapy (eg, behavior therapy, behavior-marital therapy).
* History or current evidence of gastrointestinal disease known to interfere with the absorption or excretion of drugs or a history of surgery known to interfere with the absorption or excretion of drugs.
