Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

Participants With Adverse Events (AEs).

Time Frame: After the Informed Consent Form (ICF) was signed, through Follow up 30 (+2) days after last visit

An AE was defined as any new medical problem, or exacerbation of an existing problem, experienced by a participant while enrolled in the trial, whether or not it was considered drug-related by the physician. The severity was assessed as mild, moderate, or severe. A treament-emergent AE (TEAE) was defined as any AE that started after start of open-label brexpiprazole; or if the event was continuous from baseline and was worsening, serious, study drug-related, or resulted in death, discontinuation, interruption, or reduction of study drug.

Secondary Outcomes

  • Change From Baseline in Clinical Global Impression - Severity of Illness (CGI-S) Scale Score.(Week 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 14, 20, 26, 32, 38, 44, 52 and 52 (last-observation-carried-forward [LOCF]))
  • Mean Clinical Global Impression - Improvement (CGI-I) Scale Score.(Week 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 14, 20, 26, 32, 38, 44, 52 and 52 (LOCF))
