Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate if the effectiveness of desvenlafaxine succinate sustained-release tablet (50 mg/day) used for 8 weeks is not inferior to duloxetine hydrochloride enteric-coated capsule (60 mg/day) in adult patients with major depressive disorder.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This is a multicenter study to evaluate if the effectiveness of desvenlafaxine succinate sustained-release tablet (50 mg/day) used for 8 weeks is not inferior to duloxetine hydrochloride enteric-coated capsule (60 mg/day) in adult patients with major depressive disorder. A total of 400 subjects will be randomly allocated to experimental arm (desvenlafaxine succinate sustained-release tablet) and active comparator arm (duloxetine hydrochloride enteric-coated capsule) in a 1:1 ratio.
