Phase 2, Double-Blind, Placebo Controlled, Randomized Withdrawal, Parallel Efficacy and Safety Study of GLYX-13 in Subjects With Inadequate/Partial Response to Antidepressants During the Current Episode of Major Depressive Disorder
GLYX-13 is a NMDA receptor glycine site partial agonist being studied in subjects with major
depressive disorder (depression) who have responded inadequately to another antidepressant
drug during the current episode. This trial will assess the effects of GLYX-13 on depression
when added to another antidepressant drug that the patient is already taking.

period).
