Study Summary

The purpose of this study is to see if adding the study drug, ziprasidone, to an antidepressant medication helps improve symptoms of Major Depressive Disorder (MDD). We are studying the drug's effectiveness in treating depression, as well as its safety when it is added to another drug. Hypothesis A: There will be a difference in the percentage of responders in the two treatment conditions during phase 2; response rates will be higher for the ziprasidone group.

Primary Outcome

The primary outcome measure will be response rates (50% decrease in HAM-D-17 scores) during phase 2. A responder will be a patient who experiences a 50% or greater decrease in symptoms according to the HAM-D-17 during phase 2.
