ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryChange in BPRS total scoreBaseline visit (week 0), Week 12 visit
The efficacy of levetiracetam 500 mg bid vs. placebo on symptoms will be measured by the BPRS total score. Brief Psychiatric Rating Scale (BPRS) is an 18-item scale that measures positive symptoms, negative symptoms, general psychopathology and affective symptoms. Individual items are scored on a seven point likert scale. The total score is the sum of responses and ranges from 18 to 126; a higher score on the BPRS items indicates increased severity of symptoms.
SecondaryChange in BPRS Psychosis SubscaleBaseline visit (week 0), Week 12 visit
Brief Psychiatric Rating Scale (BPRS) is an 18-item scale that measures positive symptoms, negative symptoms, general psychopathology and affective symptoms. Individual items are scored on a seven point likert scale. The Psychosis subscale comprises 4 items of the BPRS. The total subscale score is the sum of responses and ranges from 4 to 42; a higher score indicates increased severity of symptoms.
SecondaryChange in SANS Total ScoreBaseline visit (week 0), Week 12 visit
The Scale for Assessment of Negative Symptoms (SANS) will be the instrument for measurement of negative symptoms. SANS is a 19-tiem assessment; each item is rated on a scale from 0-5. The total score is the sum of the 19 individual item ratings and ranges from 0-95; higher scores indicate greater presence of negative symptoms.
SecondaryChange in MATRICS Total ScoreBaseline visit (week 0), Week 12 visit
Measurement and Treatment Research to Improve Cognition in Schizophrenia (MATRICS) Consensus Cognitive Battery is the standard tool for assessing cognitive change in trials of cognitive-enhancing agents in schizophrenia. The assessment comprises ten individual tests to produce; the scores are converted into a standardized overall composite score, with a mean of 50 and a standard deviation of 10; higher scores indicate better cognitive performance.
SecondaryChange in Hippocampal Volumetric IntegrityBaseline visit (week 0), Week 12 visitAssessed via MRI scan.
SecondaryChange in Hippocampal Cerebral Blood Flow (CBF)Baseline visit (week 0), Week 12 visitCBF measured using arterial spin labeling (ASL).
