Registered outcomes4
Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.
| List | Outcome | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Primary | Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS) Over Time | Completed each time subject is seen over 10 weeks (screening, period 1 baseline, period 1 week 1, period 1 week 2, period 1 week 3, period 1 week 4, period 2 baseline, period 2 week 1, period 2 week 2, period 2 week 3, period 2 week 4) | The Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale is a 30-item scale to assess both the positive and negative symptom symptoms of schizophrenia. The range total score is 30-210. An improvement in symptoms is reflected by a lower score. |
| Primary | Clinical Global Impression of Severity Scale Over Time | Completed each time subject is seen over 10 weeks (screening, period 1 baseline, period 1 week 1, period 1 week 2, period 1 week 3, period 1 week 4, period 2 baseline, period 2 week 1, period 2 week 2, period 2 week 3, period 2 week 4) | Clinical Global Impression of Severity Scale score is a global rating of improvement scale, which requires subjects to rate their degree of improvement on a 7-point scale. The total range score is 1-7. A reduction in scores indicates improvement. |
| Secondary | Patient Assessment of Own Functioning Inventory (PAOFI) Over Time | Completed each time subject is seen over 10 weeks (screening, period 1 baseline, period 1 week 1, period 1 week 2, period 1 week 3, period 1 week 4, period 2 baseline, period 2 week 1, period 2 week 2, period 2 week 3, period 2 week 4) | The PAOFI measures subjects' perceptions of functioning when performing everyday tasks and activities that reflect cognitive strengths and weaknesses. Subjects rate each item on a scale ranging from 0 (almost never) to 5 (almost always). The total score is the sum of the responses to each item (score of 0 to 160). High scores on the PAOFI subscales are indicative of poor perceived cognitive functioning. This scale was modified to remove 3 items- so the highest possible score is 145 for this outcome measure. |
| Secondary | Quality of Life Scale (QLS) Over Time | Completed each time subject is seen over 10 weeks (screening, period 1 baseline, period 1 week 1, period 1 week 2, period 1 week 3, period 1 week 4, period 2 baseline, period 2 week 1, period 2 week 2, period 2 week 3, period 2 week 4) | The Quality of Life Scale (QLS) is a 21-item scale rated from a semi structured interview, each item is rated 0-6. The specific descriptors vary among items, but the high end of the scales (scores of 5 and 6) reflects normal or unimpaired functioning, and the low end of the scales (scores of 0 and 1) reflects severe impairment of the function in question. A highest score of 126 would indicate unimpaired functioning. |
