Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4.

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years to 70 years (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Number of Subjects With Treatment-emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs)
Time Frame: 52 weeks
This measure includes incidences >5%.
52 weeks

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Mean Change From Baseline to Endpoint in Clinical Global Impression Scale for Severity (CGI-S)
Time Frame: 52 weeks
The CGI-S is a 7-point scale that requires the clinician to assess how mentally ill the patient is in a specific point in time. Results indicate participants evaluated at one of the following categories: "1: normal, not at all ill"; "2: borderline mentally ill"; "3: mildly ill"; "4: moderately ill"; "5: markedly ill"; "6: severely ill"; and "7: among the most extremely ill patients". Results indicate a change in CGI-S score from baseline to Day 365 based on the observed data.
52 weeks
Discontinuation From Study Due to Adverse Events (AEs)
Time Frame: 52 weeks
Number of subjects who discontinued the study due to AE.
52 weeks
Suicidal Ideation and Behavior Using the Columbia Suicide Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS)
Time Frame: 52 weeks
The C-SSRS is a questionnaire used for suicide assessment. Subjects are asked a series of questions that determine whether or not the patient demonstrates any suicidal ideation or behavior. The C-SSRS was administered to subjects at each study visit.
52 weeks
Incidence of Clinically Significant Changes Will be Calculated for Movement Disorders, Vital Signs and Routine Laboratory Tests
Time Frame: 52 weeks
Includes incidence >2% but <5%.
52 weeks
Mean Change From Baseline to Endpoint Using the Positive and Negative Symptom Scale (PANSS) Total Score and Subscale Scores
Time Frame: 52 weeks
This scale consists of symptom constructs (7 positive, 7 negative, 16 general psychopathology), each to be rated on a 7-point Likert-type scale of severity with 1 being absent to 7 being extreme. Minimum scores (best outcome) equals 30 (total scale), 7 (positive/negative subscales), and 16 (general subscale); maximum scores (worst outcome) equals 210 (total scale), 49 (positive/negative subscales), and 112 (general subscale).
52 weeks

Primary Completion (Actual)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date.
