A Study to Assess the Long-Term Efficacy and Safety of Olanzapine and Fluoxetine Combination Versus Fluoxetine Only in the Relapse Prevention of Stabilized Patients With Treatment-Resistant Depression
In Brief
A Phase 3 clinical trial evaluating Olanzapine and Fluoxetine combination (OFC) and Fluoxetine for Treatment Resistant Depression. Completed, enrolled 892 participants across 66 sites in 8 countries.
Detailed Summary
The purpose of this study is to determine whether olanzapine and fluoxetine combination (OFC) if used for a long time (47 weeks) makes patients suffering from Treatment Resistant Depression stable, determine if OFC is safe when used to treat patients with Treatment Resistant Depression for a long time (up to 47 weeks), to determine whether olanzapine and fluoxetine combination or fluoxetine alone is better to treat Treatment Resistant Depression when treated for a long time (up to 47 weeks) and to assess the quality of life during treatment.
