Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Summary of Participants With Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (TEAE)
Time Frame: Day 1 to Day 106

An adverse event (AE) is defined as any study-related event that represents a change (positive or negative) in frequency or severity from a baseline (prestudy) event (if any), regardless of the presence of causal relationship or medical significance. Treatment-emergent adverse events are defined as any adverse event with a start date on or after the first study dose date. AEs are determined by the Investigator to be related or not related to the study drug.

A serious AE (SAE) is defined by federal regulation as any AE occurring at any dose that results in any of the following outcomes: death, life-threatening AE, hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, a persistent or significant disability/incapacity, or a congenital anomaly/birth defect. Although a subject may have had 2 or more adverse experiences the subject is counted only once in a category. The same subject may appear in different categories.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS) Scores at Baseline and Days 28, 56, 84 and 106
Time Frame: Baseline (Day -1), Days 28, 56, 84, and End of Study (Day 106 or early termination visit)

The switch from oral risperidone to RBP-7000 subcutaneous injections for efficacy markers used the PANSS scores. The PANSS assessment is a medical scale designed to measure symptom severity among patients with schizophrenia. Each item is rated on a scale of 1=absent to 7=extreme. PANSS consists of three components:

  • The General Psychopathology Scale consists of 16 questions with a total range of 16 (no schizophrenia symptoms) to 112 (extreme schizophrenia symptoms).
  • Both the Positive Scale and the Negative Scale consists of 7 questions with a total range of 7 (no schizophrenia symptoms) to 49 (extreme symptoms) on each scale.

The PANSS range for assuring stability was a total PANSS General Psychopathology Scale score of 70 or less, with no score of 4 on any of the 7 questions in the Positive scale.

Baseline (Day -1), Days 28, 56, 84, and End of Study (Day 106 or early termination visit)
Clinical Global Impression (CGI) Scores (Severity of Illness and Global Improvement) at Baseline and Days 28, 56, 84 and 106
Time Frame: Baseline (Day -1), Days 28, 56, 84, and End of Study (Day 106 or early termination visit)

The switch from oral risperidone to RBP-7000 subcutaneous injections for efficacy markers used CGI scores. The CGI is used in the assessment of global illness severity and change in clinical condition over time in psychiatric patients.

Severity of illness is measured on a 7-point scale with 1=normal, not at all ill and 7=among the most extremely ill patients.

Global improvement is measured on a 7-point scale with 1=very much improved, 4=no change and 7=very much worse as compared to the severity of illness at baseline.

Baseline (Day -1), Days 28, 56, 84, and End of Study (Day 106 or early termination visit)
Global Assessment of the Abnormal Involuntary Movement Scale (AIMS) for Tardive Dyskinesia at Baseline and Days 28, 56, 84 and 106
Time Frame: Baseline (Day -1), Days 28, 56, 84, and End of Study (Day 106 or early termination visit)

The switch from oral risperidone to RBP-7000 subcutaneous injections for safety markers used AIMS. The AIMS is a scale that aids in the early detection and ongoing monitoring of tardive dyskinesia, a movement disorder that can result from long-term treatment with antipsychotic medication. By assessing the participant's body movement in specific positions requiring rotation, a psychiatrist is able to determine whether abnormal facial or body movements exist.

The total score is the sum of 7 questions assessing movement plus 3 questions representing global assessments on the overall level of involuntary movement severity, incapacitation due to involuntary movement, and patient's awareness of involuntary movement. Each of the 10 questions are scored on a 0 (none) - 4 (extremely severe) scale. Plus two dental status questions are scored on a 0 (no) - 1 (yes) scale. The total score is therefore a scale of 0 (normal) - 42 (advanced tardive dyskinesia).

Baseline (Day -1), Days 28, 56, 84, and End of Study (Day 106 or early termination visit)
Total Simpson-Angus Scale (SAS) Score at Baseline and Days 28, 56, 84 and 106
Time Frame: Baseline (Day -1), Days 28, 56, 84, and End of Study (Day 106 or early termination visit)
The switch from oral risperidone to RBP-7000 subcutaneous injections for safety markers used SAS. The SAS is a 10-item scale used to detect the presence of drug induced parkinsonism and extrapyramidal side effects, and evaluates symptom severity. The ten items focus on rigidity rather than bradykinesia, and do not assess subjective rigidity or slowness. Items are rated for severity on a 0 to 4 scale with 0=normal and 4=extreme description of the particular side effect. The total range is 0=no side effects observed to 40 = extreme of each of the 10 side effects.
Baseline (Day -1), Days 28, 56, 84, and End of Study (Day 106 or early termination visit)
Global Clinical Assessment of Akathisia Using the Barnes Akathisia Scale (BAS) at Baseline and Days 28, 56, 84 and 106
Time Frame: Baseline (Day -1), Days 28, 56, 84, and End of Study (Day 106 or early termination visit)
The BAS is a scale that detects the presence and severity of any drug induced akathisia. The scale measures objective and subjective effects such as restlessness and awareness of restlessness, respectively. Participants are observed while seated, then while standing and engaged in neutral conversation. Symptoms observed during additional situations, such as participant behavior on the ward, may also be rated. Subjective phenomena should be elicited through direct questioning of the participant. The global clinical assessment is reported on a scale of 0 to 5, where 0 = absent and 5 = severe akathisia.
Baseline (Day -1), Days 28, 56, 84, and End of Study (Day 106 or early termination visit)
Participants With Suicidal Ideation or Behavior as Identified Using the Columbia-Suicide Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS) Score at Baseline and Days 28, 56, 84 and 106
Time Frame: Baseline (Day -1), Days 28, 56, 84, and End of Study (Day 106 or early termination visit)

The C-SSRS is a scale developed by the National Institute of Mental Health trial group as a counterpart to the FDA's categorization of suicidal events. It was developed by a careful review and consequent categorization of thoughts and behavior that were statistically identified as significantly related to suicidal behavior. The scale captures the occurrence, severity, and frequency of suicide-related thoughts and behaviors throughout lifetime at screening, baseline, and for the time interval since last administration for repeat administrations during a study.

This outcome reports the number of participants with suicidal ideation or behavior.
