ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryNumber of Participants With Treatment Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs), Serious TEAEs, Severe TEAEs and TEAEs Leading Treatment DiscontinuationFrom signing of the informed consent up to 30 days after the last dose (Up to Week 52)
An Adverse Event (AE) is defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a participant enrolled in a clinical trial and which did not necessarily have a causal relationship with the study medication. Treatment emergent adverse events (TEAE) are adverse events occurring after the onset of study drug administration.
PrimaryNumber of Participants With Clinically Significant Changes in Laboratory Parameter ValuesBaseline to Week 52
The laboratory values were one of the parameters to measure the safety and tolerability of individual participants. Participants with potentially clinically significant lab values in serum chemistry, hematology, urinalyses and prolactin tests that were identified based on pre-defined criteria were reported. Any value outside the normal range was flagged for the attention of the investigator who assessed whether or not a flagged value is of clinical significance.
PrimaryNumber of Participants With Clinically Significant Changes in Electrocardiogram (ECG) ValuesBaseline to Week 52
Incidence of clinically relevant abnormal ECG values were reported as change from Baseline in heart rate (Tachycardia - ≥15 beats per minute (bpm), Bradycardia ≤15 bpm; Rhythm (Sinus tachycardia ≥15 bpm increase, Sinus bradycardia decrease of ≥15 bpm from Baseline); Presence of - supraventricular premature beat; ventricular premature beat; supraventricular tachycardia; ventricular tachycardia; atrial fibrillation and flutter. Conduction - Presence of primary, secondary or tertiary atrioventricular block, left bundle-branch block, right bundle-branch block, pre-excitation syndrome, other intraventricular conduction blocked QRS ≥0.12 second increase of ≥0.02 second. Acute, subacute or old Infarction, Presence of myocardial ischemia, symmetrical T-wave inversion. Increase in QTc - QTc ≥450 msec ≥10% increase. Any clinically significant change from Baseline assessed by the Investigator are reported.
Primary
Number of Participants With Emergence of Suicidal Ideation, TEAEs Related to Suicide and Suicidality and Suicide Ideation From the Potential Suicide Events Recorded on the Columbia-Suicide Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS)
Baseline to Week 52
Suicidality was defined as reporting at least one occurrence of any suicidal behavior or suicidal ideation. Suicidal behavior was defined as reporting any type of suicidal behaviors (actual attempt, interrupted attempt, aborted attempt, and preparatory acts or behavior). Suicidal ideation was defined as reporting any type of suicidal ideation. The suicidal ideation intensity total score is the sum of intensity scores of 5 items (frequency, duration, controllability, deterrents, and reasons for ideation). The score of each intensity item ranges from 0 (none) to 5 (worst) which leads to the range of the total score from 0 to 25. A missing score of any item resulted in a missing total score. If no suicidal ideation was reported, a score of 0 was given to the intensity scale.
PrimaryChange From Baseline in Abnormal Involuntary Movement Scale (AIMS) ScoreBaseline and Weeks 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, 32, 40, 52; Last Visit (Week 52 or early termination Visit before Week 52)
The AIMS Scale is an extrapyramidal symptoms (EPS) rating scale. The AIMS is a 12 item scale. The first 10 items e.g. facial and oral movements (items 1-4), extremity movements (items 5 and 6), trunk movements (item 7), investigators global assessment of dyskinesia (items 8 to 10) are rated from 0 to 4 (0=best, 4=worst). Items 11 and 12, related to dental status, have dichotomous responses, 0=no and 1=yes. The AIMS Total Score is the sum of the ratings for the first seven items. The possible total scores are from 0 to 28. A negative change from Baseline indicates improvement.
PrimaryMean Change From Baseline in Body Mass Index (BMI)Baseline and Weeks 12, 24, 52 and Last Visit (Week 52 or early termination Visit before Week 52)
The BMI kilogram/meter square (i.e. kg/m\^2) was calculated from the Baseline height and the weight at the current visit using one of the following formulae, as appropriate: Weight (kg) divided by \[Height (meters)\]\^2.
PrimaryNumber of Participants With Clinically Significant Changes in Vital SignsBaseline to Week 52
Vital signs assessments included orthostatic (supine and standing) blood pressure (BP) measured as millimeter of mercury \[mmHg\]), heart rate, (measured in beats per minute \[bpm\]), body weight (measured in kilograms \[kg\]) and body temperature. Incidence of clinically relevant abnormal values in heart rate, systolic and diastolic blood pressure and weight were identified based on pre-defined criteria. Orthostatic assessments of blood pressure and heart rate were made after the participant has been supine for at least 5 minutes and again after the participant has been standing for approximately 2 minutes, but not more than 3 minutes.
PrimaryMean Change From Baseline in Simpson Angus Scale (SAS) ScoreBaseline and Weeks 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, 32, 40, 52; Last Visit (Week 52 or early termination Visit before Week 52)
The SAS is a rating scale used to measure Extrapyramidal symptoms (EPS). The SAS scale consists of a list of 10 symptoms of parkinsonism (gait, arm dropping, shoulder shaking, elbow rigidity, wrist rigidity, head rotation, glabella tap, tremor, salivation, and akathisia), with each item rated from 0 to 4, with 0 being normal and 4 being the worst. The SAS Total score is sum of ratings for all 10 items, with possible Total scores from 0 to 40. A negative change from Baseline indicates improvement.
PrimaryMean Change From Baseline in Barnes Akathisia Rating Scale (BARS) ScoreBaseline and Weeks 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, 32,40, 52; Last Visit (Week 52 or early termination Visit before Week 52)
The BARS was an EPS rating scale. The BARS was used to assess the presence and severity of akathisia. This scale consists of 4 items. Only the 4th item, the Global Clinical Assessment of Akathisia, was evaluated in this trial. This item is rated on a 6 point scale, with 0 being best (absent) and 5 being worst (severe akathisia). A negative change from Baseline indicates improvement.
PrimaryMean Change From Baseline in Average Score of Attention-Deficit Disorder/Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADD/ADHD) Sub-scale of the Swanson, Nolan and Pelham-IV (SNAP-IV)Baseline and Weeks 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, 32,40, 52; Last Visit (Week 52 or early termination Visit before Week 52)
The SNAP-IV, ADHD Inattention subscale contains 19 items, items 1 to 9 measure inattention, items 11 to 19 measure hyperactivity/impulsivity, and item 10 for inattention domain that scores the intensity of each item during the last seven days on a 0 to 3 scale (0=not at all, 1=just a little, 2=pretty much, 3=very much). The lowest possible score is 0; highest is 57. The negative change from Baseline indicates improvement.
