Inclusion Criteria:
* Meets the diagnostic criteria for single episode or recurrent major depressive disorder (MDD) without psychotic features, according to either the tenth revision of the International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems (ICD-10) or the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fifth Edition (DSM-5)
* Is considered to suffer from a moderate or severe depressive syndrome, as defined by a Montgomery-Asberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS) total score greater than or equal to (\>=) 22 at entry
* Is initiating or is planning to initiate a new add-on antidepressant treatment per local prescribing information to treat the current depressive episode. In the context of this observational study, a new add-on antidepressant treatment is considered any new pharmacological or non-pharmacological treatment that is prescribed in addition to the current antidepressant treatment, inclusive of an selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor/serotonin norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor (SSRI or SNRI) with the intent to improve a participant's clinical depressive syndrome. Accordingly, any dose escalation of an antidepressant prescribed prior to baseline or the addition of any drug intended to increase the plasma-concentration of an antidepressant prescribed prior to baseline is not considered a new antidepressant treatment; In parallel with the inclusion of participants considered for add-on strategy, in the United States only, a cohort o…
Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?

Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
