H. Lundbeck A/S (Lundbeck) announced today that clinical and pre-clinical data highlighting the company’s ongoing commitment to advancing the science and treatment of depression will be presented at the American Psychiatric Association (APA) 167th Annual Meeting in New York City, USA on 3-7 May 2014.  In total, there will be 13 poster presentations on pre-clinical and clinical data of vortioxetine (Brintellix®), and covering efficacy and tolerability results, both in long term studies as well as across distinct patient populations. The abstracts are embargoed until Saturday, 3 May at 8 AM (EST) and will be posted on the APA website.

Brintellix® was approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of Major Depressive Disorders in adults and by the European Commission for the treatment of adults with Major Depressive Episodes, commonly referred to as depression. More recently, the Australian Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA) approved Brintellix® for the treatment Major Depressive Disorders in April 2014.
