Inclusion criteria

* Target disease: Patients diagnosed as having the following primary disease and current major depressive episode for at least 8 weeks on the basis of DSM-IV-TR criteria. * Major Depressive Disorder, Single Episode (296.2x) (excluding those with psychotic features) * Major Depressive Disorder, Recurrent (296.3x). (excluding those with psychotic features) * HAM-D (17 items) total score \>/=18. * Age: \>/=65 years old (at the time of informed consent) * Gender: Male or female. * Inpatient or outpatient status: Either * Informed consent: The subject himself/herself must give written informed consent.

Exclusion criteria

* Patients with predisposition to seizure (who currently have or have a past history of seizure, febrile convulsive seizure in infancy, cerebral tumour, cerebrovascular disorder or head injury, who have a family history of idiopathic seizure, patients with diabetes who have been treated with oral hypoglycaemics or insulin, or who use drugs lowering the threshold of seizure) * Patients who currently have or have a past history of the following disorders: * Anorexia nervosa (DSM-IV-TR 307.1) * Bulimia nervosa (DSM-IV-TR 307.51) * Patients with a history of manic episode * Patients with a past or current DSM- IV-TR diagnosis of schizophrenia or other psychotic disorder * Patients with a current DSM-IV-TR Axis II diagnosis (e.g., antisocial or borderline personality disorder) * Patients starting psychotherapy (except for supportive psychotherapy not aimed at therapeutic efficacy and unlikely to affect efficacy evaluation) and standardized cognitive behaviour therapy within 12 weeks prior to the start of the treatment phase * Patients with a diagnosis of substance abuse (alcohol or drug) by the DSM-IV-TR criteria or with a diagnosis of substance dependence within 1 year prior to the start of the treatment phase * Patients who have received electroconvulsive therapy within 24 weeks prior to the start of the treatment phase * Patients who have taken MAO inhibitors (selegiline hydrochloride) within 2 weeks prior to the start of the treatment phase * Patients who have taken another investigational drug within 12 weeks prior to the start of the pre-treatment phase * Patients who have attempted suicide within 24 weeks prior to the start of the treatment phase, or patients for whom the score of the suicide-related item of HAM-D is \>/=3, or patients in whom the risk of suicide is judged to be high by the investigator (sub-investigator). * Patients in whom the risk of homicide is judged to be high by the investigator (sub-investigator). * Patients with a history of hypersensitivity to 323U66 * Patients with serious cerebral disease * Patients who have ECG or clinical evidence of any cardiac condition that the investigator (sub-investigator) assesses the subject is predisposed to ischemia or arrhythmia * Patients with serious physical symptoms (i.e. cardiac/hepatic/renal disorder, hematopoietic disorder).

Percentage of Remitters Based on the Hamilton Rating Scale for Depression (HAM-D) at Week 4

The Hamilton Rating Scale for Depression (HAM D)contains 17 questions which detect change and measure illness severity. Individual items are rated on a scale of 0-4, 0-3, and 0-2 with total HAM D score range from 0 (not ill) to 53 (severely ill). Remitters are defined as subjects with a HAM D total score of \</= 7.

Time frame: Week 4

Population: Full Analysis Set consisted of all subjects in the safety population who had baseline and at least on post-baseline efficacy data and met the objectively-measured major eligibility criteria. Last observation carried forward method for missing data.

Percentage of Responders Based on the Clinical Global Impression - Global Improvement Score (CGI-I)at Week 4 and Week 8

The CGI-I assesses the investigator's impression of the patient's current illness. The time span is the week before the rating and the score ranges from 1 (very much improved) to 7 (very much worse). Responders are subjects that have a score of 1 (very much improved) or 2 (much improved) on the CGI-I.
