Abbreviations: ABCB1, ATP-binding cassette family of transporter proteins, subfamily B (MDR/TAP), member 1; ESC, escitalopram; HDRS, 17-item Hamilton Depression Rating Scale; 5-HTTLPR, serotonin-transporter-linked promoter region; MDE, Major Depressive Episode duration; VEN, venlafaxine.

For subjects treated with ESC significant differences between baseline major depressive episodes duration and proportion of female subjects between the different rs2032582 and rs1128503 genotypes was noted.

a

Bold values denote significant difference at P=0.05 level.

b

One subject on ESC CYP2D6 genotyping assay failed.
