Study Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine the effectiveness of treatment with vortioxetine on participant goal achievement after a change in antidepressant medication for the treatment of major depressive disorder (MDD).

Primary Outcome

GAS is a tool to measure progress each participant has towards achieving their individualized goals. The standardized scoring was applied for statistical analysis. A semi-structured interview was conducted with each participant to conduct goal-setting at the outset of study. Another evaluation took place at end of study (EOS) visit to determine the level of progress at that time. The score for each goal ranged from -2 (much worse) to +2 (much better). GAS yielded a norm-based score standardized
