Study Endpoints
Primary Endpoints
Change from Baseline to Week 12 in Marder Negative Symptoms Factor Score (NSFS)
Phase A: Screening, Baseline, Weeks 2, 4, 8, 12

The Marder Negative Symptoms Factor Score (NSFS) derived from the complete Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS) has been the most frequently used scale in schizophrenia clinical studies focusing on negative symptoms. The PANSS measures comprehensive psychiatric symptoms, including positive, negative, and general symptoms. The full PANSS rates the patient on 30 different symptoms from 1 (absent) to 7 (extreme) based on an interview as well as reports of family members or primary care hospital workers. Negative symptoms will be defined by PANSS negative subscore (N1+N2+N3+N4+N5+N6+N7). Higher scores indicate more severe symptoms.

The Marder negative symptoms factor score (NSFS) derived from the complete Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS) has been the most frequently used scale in schizophrenia clinical studies focusing on negative symptoms The PANSS measures comprehensive psychiatric symptoms, including positive, negative, and general symptoms. The full PANSS rates the patient on 30 different symptoms from 1 (absent) to 7 (extreme) based on an interview as well as reports of family members or primary care hospital workers. The NSFS consists of the sum of the negative symptom PANSS items N1, N2, N3, N4, N6, G7, and G16 (minimum score = 7; maximum score = 49). Higher scores indicate more severe symptoms.
