Safety as measured by changes in the Abnormal Involuntary Movement Scale (AIMS). This is a rating scale that was designed to measure involuntary movements known as tardive dyskinesia (TD), which sometimes develops as a side effect of long-term treatment with neuroleptic (anti-psychotic) medications. The test, which can be completed in about 5 minutes, has a total of twelve items rating involuntary movements of various areas of the patient's body. Items are scored on a 0 (none) to 4 (severe) basis; the scale provides a total score (items 1 through 7) or item 8 can be used in isolation as an indication of overall severity of symptoms.
Safety as measured by changes in the Simpson-Angus Scale (SAS), administered typically within 5 minutes, it is a performance scale that measures anti-psychotic-induced parkinsonism symptoms. The rater asks the patient to perform 10 tasks and rates responses on a scale of 0-4 (normal to severe).
The Brief Adherence Rating Scale (BARS), administered typically within 5 minutes, is a 4-item questionnaire to assess a patient's adherence with their currently prescribed medication regimen. Medication non-adherence is common in patients with psychiatric conditions and associated with worse clinical outcomes. The BARS assesses a patient's compliance with their prescribed medication regimen. The tool is administered by a clinician and includes 4 items: 3 questions and an overall visual analog rating scale to estimate the proportion of doses taken by the patient in the past month (0-100%). The three questions probe patients' knowledge about their medication regimen: number of prescribed doses per day, number of days the patient did not take the prescribe dose, and number of days the patient took less than the prescribed dose.
The Calgary Depression Scale for Schizophrenia (CDSS) is a 9-item clinician-rated outcome measure that assesses the level of depression in people with schizophrenia spectrum disorder, including attenuated psychosis syndrome. It distinguishes depressive symptoms from negative, positive, and extrapyramidal symptoms. The scales take approximately 10 minutes to administer and has a lookback period of 2-weeks. Each item is rated on a scale of 0-3 (absent to severe).
The Columbia Suicide Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS) is a suicidal ideation rating scale. The scale identifies behaviors and thoughts that are associated with an increased risk of suicidal actions in the future. The C-SSRS baseline/screening version will be conducted at screening. The C-SSRS Since Last Visit version will be conducted for all visits after screening. Answers are "Yes" or "No" with the opportunity for the participant to explain their answers further.
Electroencephalography (EEG) and event-related potential (ERP) measures of the duration deviant mismatch negativity paradigm. In this paradigm, 2 tones of the same frequency and sound intensity, one short duration (Standard) and one longer duration (Deviant), are sequentially presented to the patient through inserted earphones. Standard stimuli are presented more often than Deviant stimuli. While the auditory stimuli are being played, the patient is instructed to perform a picture-word matching task where they press a button on the COGNISON® handset when they see a picture and a word on a monitor positioned in front of them that do not match.
Electroencephalography (EEG) and event-related potential (ERP) measures. In this paradigm, 2 tones of the same sound intensity, one low frequency (Standard) and one higher frequency (Target) are sequentially presented to the patient through inserted earphones. The Standard stimuli are presented more often than the Target stimuli. The patient is told to listen for the high-frequency stimuli (Target) and press a button on the COGNISION® handset as fast as they can.
Electroencephalography (EEG) and event-related potential (ERP) measures. In this paradigm, a short stream of clicks is repeatedly presented to the patient through inserted earphones. While the click-streams are being presented, the patient is instructed to fix their gaze on a white cross displayed on a computer monitor positioned in front of them.
Electroencephalography (EEG) and event-related potential (ERP) measures. In this paradigm, the patient is asked to close their eyes and relax for 5 minutes while EEGs are recorded.
