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.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

  • Have single or recurrent unipolar Major Depressive Disorder (MDD), without psychotic features by Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fourth Edition-Text Revision (DSM-IV-TR) clinical assessment, confirmed by the structured clinician Interview for DSM-IV Axis 1 disorders (SCID-I).

  • Have leukopenia or history of leukopenia without a clear and resolved etiology, or known history of agranulocytosis during the participant's lifetime.
  • Have alanine aminotransferase (ALT)/serum glutamic pyruvic transaminase (SGPT) values greater than or equal to 2 times the upper limit of normal (ULN) of the performing laboratory or aspartate aminotransferase (AST)/serum glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase (SGOT) values greater than or equal to 2 times the ULN or total bilirubin values greater than or equal to 1.5 times the ULN at any time during screening.
  • Have acute, serious, or unstable medical conditions.
  • Have any illness such that death is anticipated within 1 year or intensive care unit hospitalization for the illness is anticipated within 6 months.
  • Have elevated prolactin levels at screening.
  • Have Bazett's corrected QT interval (QTc) greater than 450 milliseconds (male) or greater than 470 milliseconds (female) at screening and when treatment is due to be received for the first time.
  • Have received electroconvulsive therapy (ECT) or vagus nerve stimulation (VNS) treatment within the current episode; have a history of failure to adequate treatment courses of ECT or VNS; or will require ECT or VNS at any time during study participation.
  • If receiving psychotherapy, light therapy, or both, are anticipated to require changes in frequency/intensity of treatment regimen or to cease treatment regimen over the duration of the study. Participants who are not receiving any of these therapies upon study entry may not begin any of these therapies during screening, or during any treatment phases of the study.
  • Have received previous treatment wit
