Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Absolute Change in Total Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS) ScoreBaseline (Day 8) to Day 92 (end of study Part A)

Change from baseline (Day 8) to Day 92 (end of study Part A).

The PANSS is a 30-item scale measuring severity of schizophrenia symptoms. Symptom severity for each item is rated on a 7-point scale (1 = absent; 7 = extreme), and the total score is added together, with a minimum score of 30 and a maximum score of 210. A higher score indicates more severe symptoms, while a lower score indicates less severe symptoms.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Percentage of Subjects Exhibiting Significant Weight Gain at Day 92Baseline (Day 8) to Day 92 (end of study Part A)

Significant weight gain will include a \>=5%, \>= 7%, or \>=10% gain in body weight from baseline (Day 8) to Day 92 (end of study Part A)

Change in Clinical Global Impressions - Severity (CGI-S) From Baseline to Day 92Baseline (Day 8) to Day 92 (end of study Part A)

Change in CGI-S score from baseline (Day 8) to the end of Part A (Week 12; Day 92).

The CGI-S is a 7-point scale intended to measure the severity of a patient's illness at the time of assessment. Scores range from 1 (normal) to 7(extremely ill), so a higher score is correlative to more severe illness.

Percent Change in Body Weight (Kilogram) From Baseline to Day 92Baseline (Day 8) to Day 92 (end of study Part A)

Percent change from baseline (Day 8) to the end of Part A (Day 92)

Absolute Change in Body Weight (kg) From Baseline to Day 92Baseline (Day 8) to Day 92 (end of study Part A)

Change from randomization (Day 8) to the end of Part A (Week 12; Day 92)
