Population: All enrolled participants with a baseline and at least one post-baseline C-SSRS value.

The C-SSRS captured occurrence, severity, and frequency of suicide-related thoughts and behaviors. Suicidal ideation was defined as a "yes" answer to any 1 of 5 suicidal ideation questions, which included a wish to be dead and 4 different categories of active suicidal ideation. Suicidal behavior was defined as a "yes" answer to any of 5 suicidal behavior questions: preparatory acts or behavior, aborted attempt, interrupted attempt, actual attempt, and completed suicide.

Population: All enrolled participants with a baseline and at least one post-baseline ASEX total score value.

The ASEX scale was used to assess sexual functioning in both males and females. The ASEX total score for the male and female version was calculated as the sum of the responses (rated from 1 \[extremely\] to 6 \[no/never\]) to the 5 items of the ASEX scale. Total scores ranged from 5 to 30 with higher scores indicating greater sexual dysfunction. Least Squares (LS) means were calculated using mixed model repeated measures (MMRM) adjusting for investigator, visit, baseline score, and baseline-by-visit.

Population: All enrolled participants with a baseline and at least one post-baseline CPFQ total score value.

The CPFQ is a 7-item participant-rated questionnaire pertaining to a participant's cognitive and physical well-being. It assesses motivation, wakefulness, energy, focus, recall, word-finding difficulty, and mental acuity. Each item was scored on a 6-point scale ranging from 1 (greater than normal) to 6 (totally absent). Total scores ranged from 7 to 42. Least Squares (LS) means were calculated using mixed model repeated measures (MMRM) adjusting for investigator, visit, baseline score, and baseline-by-visit.

Items were rated on a scale of 0 to 6, for a total score range of 0 (low severity of depressive symptoms) to 60 (high severity of depressive symptoms). Least Squares (LS) means were calculated using mixed model repeated measures (MMRM) adjusting for investigator, visit, baseline score, and baseline-by-visit.

Population: All enrolled participants with a baseline and at least one post-baseline Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) depression subscale value.

The Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) is a 14-item questionnaire with 2 subscales: anxiety and depression. Each item is rated on a 4-point scale (0-3), giving maximum scores of 21 for anxiety and depression subscales. Scores of 11 or more on either subscale are considered to be a significant 'case' of psychological morbidity, while scores of 8-10 represent 'borderline' and 0-7, 'normal.' Least Squares (LS) means were calculated using mixed model repeated measures (MMRM) adjusting for investigator, visit, baseline score, and baseline-by-visit.

Clinical Global Impression - Severity (CGI-S) measures severity of depression at the time of assessment compared with the start of treatment. Scores range from 1 (normal, not at all ill) to 7 (among the most extremely ill participants). Least Squares (LS) means were calculated using mixed model repeated measures (MMRM) adjusting for investigator, visit, baseline score, and baseline-by-visit.

Population: All enrolled participants with a baseline and at least one post-baseline Fatigue Associated with Depression (FAsD) average score and subscale score.

The Fatigue Associated with Depression (FAsD) is a participant-rated scale with a total of 13 items. Six of the 13 items ask how often participants experience different aspects of fatigue with responses from 1 (never) to 5 (always). Seven of the 13 items ask how often fatigue impacts various aspects of the participant's lives with responses from 1 (not at all) to 5 (very much). The "Experience Score" was derived by taking the mean of Items 1 through 6, the "Impact Score" was derived by taking the mean of Items 7 through 13 (applicable items only), and the "Average Score" was the mean of Items 1 through 13 (derived by taking the mean of all applicable items for each participant). Item 12 applied only to participants with a spouse or significant other and Item 13 applied to participants who had a job or who went to school. Least Squares (LS) means were calculated using mixed model repeated measures (MMRM) adjusting for investigator, visit, baseline score, and baseline-by-visit.

Population: All enrolled participants with a baseline and at least one post-baseline Montgomery-Asberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS) total score value.

Response criteria was defined as at least a 50% decrease from baseline in the Montgomery-Asberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS) total score. The MADRS is a rating scale for severity of depressive mood symptoms. The MADRS had a 10-item checklist. Items were rated on a scale of 0 to 6, for a total score range of 0 (low severity of depressive symptoms) to 60 (high severity of depressive symptoms). This analysis models the probability of response at each visit, and the estimated probabilities were adjusted for visit and the baseline MADRS total score.

Population: All enrolled participants with a baseline and at least one post-baseline Sheehan Disability Scale (SDS) subscale score.

The Sheehan Disability Scale (SDS) Global Functional Impairment Score (total score) and Subscores were completed by the participant and were used to assess the effect of the participant's symptoms on their work (Item 1), social (Item 2), and family life (Item 3). Each item is measured on a 0 (not at all) to 10 (extremely) point scale with higher values indicating greater disruption. The Global Functional Impairment Score is the sum of the 3 items, and scores ranged from 0 to 30 with higher values indicating greater disruption in the participant's work life (work/school impairment \[imp\] score), social life (social life/leisure activities impairment \[imp\] score), and family life (family life/home responsibilities impairment \[imp\] score). Least Squares (LS) means were calculated using mixed model repeated measures (MMRM) adjusting for investigator, visit, baseline score, and baseline-by-visit.

The Quality of Life Enjoyment and Satisfaction Questionnaire-Short Form (Q-LES-Q-SF) is a self-administered 16 item questionnaire measuring degree of enjoyment and satisfaction experienced in various areas of daily life during the past week on a 5-point Likert scale (1=very poor and 5=very good). The total raw score is the sum of Items 1 to 14 and ranges from 14 to 70. The raw scores are converted to and expressed as the percentage of the maximum possible score. Higher scores indicate higher levels of enjoyment/satisfaction. Least Squares (LS) means were calculated using mixed model repeated measures (MMRM) adjusting for investigator, visit, baseline score, and baseline-by-visit.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline, Week 54

Population: All enrolled participants with a baseline and at least one post-baseline pulse rate value.

Measure
LY2216684 + SSRI Open-Label Phase
n=600 participants at risk
LY2216684 (edivoxetine): 12 to 18 milligrams (mg), administered orally, once daily for 54 weeks, adjunctive to selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI); included all enrolled participants who did not discontinue from the study for the reason 'Lost to follow-up' at the first post-baseline visit.
Discontinuation Phase
n=472 participants at risk
Included all enrolled participants who abruptly discontinued LY2216684 (edivoxetine) treatment either at the end of the study or after early withdrawal from the study and who did not discontinue from the study for the reason 'Lost to follow-up' at the discontinuation phase visit. All participants maintained their SSRI treatment at the stable dose during the discontinuation phase.
