Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change in Negative Symptom Scale (BNSS) total scorefrom baseline to Week 12

The BNSS is a brief clinician rating scale, intended to measure negative symptoms. It consists of 13 items organized into 6 subscales: anhedonia, distress, asociality, avolition, blunted affect and alogia. The items score the impairment. Items 1 to 4 are rated from 0 (Normal) to 6 (Extremely severe) and items 5 to 13 are rated from 0 (No impairment) to 6 (Severe deficit). The BNSS total score is calculated by summing the 13 individual items; subscale scores are calculated by summing the individual items within each subscale. Users of the BNSS should have training in psychiatric interview techniques and have clinical experience working with patients with schizophrenia and related psychotic disorders. The BNSS total scores ranges from 0 to 78.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change in PANSS Negative subscale scorefrom baseline to Week 12

The PANSS is a clinician rated scale designed to measure severity of psychopathology in adult patients with schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorders and other psychotic disorders. It emphasizes positive and negative symptoms. The PANSS includes 3 sub-scales and 30 items

CGI-SCH-DC negative symptoms responseat Week 12

The CGI-SCH is a clinician-rated scale to assess global illness severity and degree of change in patients with schizophrenia. For both the global illness severity and degree of change, the CGI-SCH consists of four different groups of symptoms (positive, negative, cognitive and depressive) and the overall severity of the disorder. In the CGI-SCH-DC degree of change category symptoms and overall severity are rated on a 7-point scale ranging from 1 (very much improved) to 7 (very much worse). Each single rating (conditions of severity and degree of improvement) and overall ratings of severity and improvement are scored independently and no total score is derived. Response defined as CGI-SCH-DC negative symptoms = 1 or 2

Change in Personal and Social Performance (PSP) scorefrom baseline to Week 12

The PSP is a clinician-rated scale designed and validated to measure a patient's current level of social functioning. The PSP consists of 4 items: socially useful activities (including work and study), personal and social relationships, self-care, and disturbing and aggressive behaviours. The 4 items are assessed on a 6-point scale, from absent to very severe. Based on these assessments and their combination, individual scores are converted into a global score ranging from 1 to 100.

The CGI-SCH is a clinician-rated scale to assess global illness severity and degree of change in patients with schizophrenia. For both the global illness severity and degree of change, the CGI-SCH consists of four different groups of symptoms (positive, negative, cognitive and depressive) and the overall severity of the disorder. The CGI-SCH-S severity of illness category symptoms and overall severity are rated on a 7-point scale ranging from 1 (normal - not ill) to 7 (Among the most severely ill). For the first four ratings (positive, negative, depressive, and cognitive symptoms), the assessment should focus on the severity of symptoms only. Additionally, for 'overall severity' rating, both severity of symptoms and interference with functioning should be considered.
