Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Change in Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS) Total Score From Baseline to Week 13 or the Last Post-baseline Assessment
Baseline to 13 weeks or the last post-baseline assessment

The PANSS measures the severity of psychotic symptoms of schizophrenia. Scores range from 30 to 210, where 30=best and 210=worst. The change in PANSS total score for all eligible subjects was measured from the beginning of the study to Week 13 (i.e., the end of the double-blind treatment period) or, if the subject left the study early, from the beginning of the study to the last assessment after baseline.

Secondary Endpoints

Change in Personal and Social Performance Scale (PSP) Score From Baseline to Week 13 or the Last Post-baseline Assessment.
Baseline to 13 weeks or the last post-baseline assessment
Change in Clinical Global Impression-Severity (CGI-S) Scores From Baseline to Week 13 or the Last Post-baseline Assessment
