Groups2

Neither group, or both, names a comparator, so the groups keep ClinicalTrials.gov's order.

GroupTitleDescriptionWith the outcomeAnalysedClinicalTrials.gov code
Group 1Antidepressant + SPD489
Subjects with residual depressive symptoms (symptoms of depression that remain after initial antidepressant treatment) after the 8-week lead-in period with antidepressant (escitalopram @ 20 mg/day) were randomly assigned to receive augmentation therapy (antidepressant @ 20 mg/day + SPD489 @ either 20, 30, or 50 mg/day) for 6 weeks. This includes both non-remitters (Montgomery-Ǻsberg Depression Rating Scale \[MADRS\] total score greater than 10 at augmentation baseline) and remitters (MADRS total score of less than or equal to 10 at augmentation baseline).

Group 2Antidepressant + Placebo .
Subjects with residual depressive symptoms after the 8-week lead-in period with antidepressant were randomly assigned to receive augmentation therapy (antidepressant @ 20 mg/day + placebo) for 6 weeks. This includes both non-remitters and remitters.
