Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Change From Baseline to the End of the Double-blind Treatment in the BPRS (Brief Psychiatric Rating Scale)Total Score

Time Frame: Baseline and 6 weeks

The BPRS consists of 18 ordered categorical items (from "not present" to "extremely severe," on a 1- to 7-point scale), each developed to assess patient symptomatology in a relatively discrete symptom area. The BPRS will be extracted from the PANSS by adding the scores of the 18 items (P2 to P7, N1, N2, and G1 to G10) of the PANSS and will not be assessed separately. The minimum score on the BPRS is 18 and the maximum is 126. The higher number indicates a worsening of schizophrenia.

Secondary Outcomes

  • Change From Baseline to the End of the Double-blind Treatment in the CGI-S (Clinical Global Impression of Severity) Scores(Baseline and 6 weeks)
  • Change From Baseline to the End of the Double-blind Treatment in the MADRS (Montgomery Asberg-Depression Scale) Scores(Baseline and 6 weeks)
  • Change From Baseline to the End of the Double-blind Treatment in the PANSS (Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale) Scores(Baseline and 6 weeks)
