Group Intervention Description Esketamine SSRI/SNRI Participants who were randomly assigned to the esketamine arm in Study 54135419TRD3013 (NCT04338321), had esketamine nasal spray administered through Week 30 (every 2 weeks dosing) or Week 31 (once weekly dosing), completed the maintenance phase at Week 32 will continue to receive esketamine nasal spray once weekly or every 2 weeks along with serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor/selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI/SNRI) in this long-term extension (LTE) study. The duration of the study participation is 2 years or when esketamine is commercially available.

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Suicidal Ideation and Behavior as Assessed by Columbia-suicide Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS) Score Up to Week 104 Suicidal ideation or behavior will be measured using C-SSRS score. C-SSRS is a clinician rated assessment of suicidal behavior and/ or intent. Scale consists of 28 items in 4 sections: suicide behavior, actual attempts, suicidal ideation, and intensity of ideation. Suicidal ideation consists of 5 yes/no items: wish to be dead, non-specific active suicidal thoughts, active suicidal ideation with any methods (not plan) without intention to act, active suicidal ideation with some intent to act without specific plan, active suicidal ideation with specific plan and intent. Worsening of suicidal ideation will be an increase in severity of suicidal ideation from baseline.
Percentage of Participants with Intervention-emergent Adverse Events (AEs) Up to Week 104 Intervention-emergent AEs are AEs occurring or worsening in severity after the start of study intervention. An AE is any untoward medical occurrence attributed to study drug in a participant who received study drug.
Percentage of Participants with Intervention-emergent AEs of special interest (AESI) Up to Week 104 Percentage of Participants with Intervention-emergent (AESI) will be summarized separately grouped by category (sedation, dissociation, events suggestive of abuse potential, cystitis, hepatic impairment, and suicidality \[including suicidal ideation and behavior\] will be reported.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Change from Baseline in Study 54135419TRD3013 with Clinician-rated MADRS Scale Score Baseline, up to Week 104 The MADRS is a clinician-rated scale designed to measure depression severity and detect changes due to anti-depressants (AD) treatment. The scale consists of 10 items, each of which is scored from 0 (item not present or normal) to 6 (severe or continuous presence of the symptoms), for a total possible score of 60. Higher scores represent a more severe condition. The MADRS evaluates apparent sadness, reported sadness, inner tension, sleep, appetite, concentration, lassitude, inability to feel (interest level), pessimistic thoughts, and suicidal thoughts.
Change from Baseline in Study 54135419TRD3013 with Clinical Global Impression -severity (CGI-S) Scale Score Baseline, up to Week 104 The CGI-S measures illness severity and is rated on a 7-point scale, with the severity of illness scale using a range of responses from 1 (normal) through to 7 (among the most severely ill participants).
Percentage of Participants with no Relapse Until the end of the Prospective Observation Period at Week 104 Week 104 Percentage of participants with no relapse until the end of the prospective observation period at Week 104 will be reported. A relapse is defined by any of following: (a) Worsening of depressive symptoms as indicated by montgomery-asberg depression rating scale (MADRS) total score greater than or equal to (\>=) 22 confirmed by 1 additional assessment of MADRS total score \>=22 within the next 5 to 31 days. The date of the second MADRS assessment will be used for the date of relapse; (b) Any psychiatric hospitalization for: worsening of depression, suicide prevention or due to a suicide attempt for any of these events, the start date of hospitalization will be used for the date of relapse; (c) Suicide attempt, completed suicide, or any other clinically relevant event determined per the investigator's clinical judgment to be indicative of a relapse of depressive illness, but for which the participant was not hospitalized. The onset of the event will be used for the date of relapse.
Change from Baseline in Study 54135419TRD3013 with Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ) 9-item Total Score Baseline, up to Week 104 The PHQ-9 is a validated 9-item, patient-reported outcome (PRO) measure to assess depressive symptoms. The scale scores each of the 9-symptom domains of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, fifth edition major depressive disorder (DSM-5 MDD) criteria. Each item is rated on a 4 point scale (0=not at all, 1=several days, 2=more than half the days, and 3=nearly every day). The participant's item responses are summed to provide a total score (range of 0 to 27), with higher scores indicating greater severity of depressive symptoms.
Change from Baseline in Study 54135419TRD3013 with European Quality of Life (EuroQol) Group, 5 Dimension, 5-Level (EQ-5D-5L) Questionnaire Score Baseline, up to Week 104 The EQ-5D-5L is standardized instrument for use as measure of health outcome, primarily designed for self-completion by respondents. It consists of EQ-5D-5L descriptive system and EQ-VAS. EQ-5D-5L descriptive system comprises the following 5 dimensions: Mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort and anxiety/depression. Each of 5 dimensions is divided into 5 levels of perceived problems (1 indicating no problem, 2 indicating slight problems, 3 indicating moderate problems, 4 indicating severe problems, 5 indicating extreme problems). Participant selects an answer for each of 5 dimensions considering the response that best matches his or her health "today". The responses to the 5 dimensions are used to compute a single score ranging from 0 (worst health state) to 100 (better health state) representing the general health status of the individual.
