Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Change From Baseline in the 16-Item Negative Symptoms Assessment (NSA-16)
The NSA-16 scale is used to help clinicians rate behaviors (not psychopathology) commonly associated with negative symptoms of schizophrenia. The scale rates participants on 16 "anchors". Each item ("anchor") is rated from 1 (better) to 6 (worse). The total score is the sum of the 16 specific items and ranges from 16 to 96. Higher scores indicate greater severity of illness. The Mixed Model Repeated Measure (MMRM) analysis was used to calculate Least Squares (LS) mean and standard error. LS mean values are controlled for visit, pooled investigative site, treatment, standard of care (SOC) type, baseline positive symptom stratum, treatment*visit, baseline NSA-16 total score, and baseline NSA-16 total score*visit.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Change From Baseline in Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS) Total Score
The PANSS Scale consists of 30 items and is designed to measure the severity of psychopathology in schizophrenia. Each item is rated from 1 (symptom not present) to 7 (symptom extremely severe). The PANSS total score is the sum of the 30 items and has a score ranging from 30 to 210. Higher scores indicate greater severity of illness. The Mixed Model Repeated Measure (MMRM) analysis was used to calculate Least Squares (LS) mean and standard error. LS mean values are controlled for visit, pooled investigative site, treatment, standard of care (SOC) type, baseline positive symptom stratum, treatment*visit, baseline PANSS total score, and baseline PANSS total score*visit.
Change From Baseline in Clinical Global Impression Severity (CGI-S) Scale
The CGI-S instrument is used to record the severity of mental illness at the time of assessment. The score ranges from 1 (normal, not at all ill) to 7 (among the most extremely ill). Higher scores indicate greater severity of illness. The Mixed Model Repeated Measure (MMRM) analysis was used to calculate Least Squares (LS) mean and standard error. LS mean values are controlled for visit, pooled investigative site, treatment, standard of care (SOC) type, baseline positive symptom stratum, treatment*visit, baseline CGI-S score, and baseline CGI-S score*visit.
Change From Baseline in Measurement and Treatment Research to Improve Cognition in Schizophrenia Consensus Cognitive Battery (MCCB) Overall Composite T-Score
MCCB is an instrument that contains 10 tests to measure cognitive performance in 7 cognitive domains: speed processing, attention/vigilance, working memory, verbal learning, visual learning, reasoning and problem solving, and social cognition. The MCCB overall composite T-score combines the individual scores of the 10 tests and scores them on a normative scale to derive a T-score, where the mean is 50 and a standard deviation is 10 for the MCCB overall composite T-score. Higher scores indicate better cognition. The Mixed Model Repeated Measure (MMRM) analysis was used to calculate Least Squares (LS) mean and standard error. LS mean values are controlled for visit, pooled investigative site, treatment, standard of care (SOC) type, baseline positive symptom stratum, treatment*visit, baseline MCCB overall composite T-score, and baseline MCCB overall composite T-score*visit.
Change From Baseline in University of California at San Diego Performance-Based Skills Assessment-Brief Version (UPSA-B) Total Score
The UPSA-B is a performance-based assessment of improvement in functional capacity. Participants are asked to role-play tasks in 2 areas of functioning: communication and finances. Raw scores for the 2 subscales are converted into an UPSA-B Total Score (range = 0-100) with higher scores indicating a greater level of functional capacity. Scores of 75 or higher are associated with independent living. The Mixed Model Repeated Measure (MMRM) analysis was used to calculate Least Squares (LS) mean and standard error. LS mean values are controlled for visit, pooled investigative site, treatment, standard of care (SOC) type, baseline positive symptom stratum, treatment*visit, baseline UPSA-B total score, and baseline UPSA-B total score*visit.
Change From Baseline in Barnes-Akathisia Scale (BAS) Global Score
The BAS is a 4-item instrument that evaluates akathisia associated with use of antipsychotic medications. Item 4 is the Global Clinical Assessment and is rated 0 to 5 (0 = absent, 5 = severe). The Mixed Model Repeated Measure (MMRM) analysis was used to calculate Least Squares (LS) mean and standard error. LS mean values are controlled for visit, pooled investigative site, treatment, standard of care (SOC) type, baseline positive symptom stratum, treatment*visit, baseline BAS global score, and baseline BAS global score*visit.
Change From Baseline in Simpson Angus Scale (SAS) Total Score
The SAS is used to measure Parkinsonian-type symptoms in participants exposed to antipsychotics. SAS consists of 10 items; each rated on a 5-point scale, with 0 meaning complete absence of the condition and 4 meaning the presence of the condition in extreme form. The total score is obtained by adding the ten items, and ranges from 0 to 40. Higher scores indicate greater severity of illness. The Mixed Model Repeated Measure (MMRM) analysis was used to calculate Least Squares (LS) mean and standard error. LS mean values are controlled for visit, pooled investigative site, treatment, standard of care (SOC) type, baseline positive symptom stratum, treatment*visit, baseline SAS total score, and baseline SAS total score*visit.
Change From Baseline in Abnormal Involuntary Movement Scale (AIMS) Total Score
The AIMS is a 12-item scale designed to record the occurrence of dyskinetic movements. Items 1 to 10 are rated on a 5- point scale, with 0 being no dyskinetic movements and 4 being severe dyskinetic movements. Items 11 and 12 are yes/no questions regarding the dental condition of a subject. The AIMS 1-7 total score is the total of items 1 through 7 of the AIMS, and ranges from 0 to 28. Higher scores indicate greater severity of illness. The Mixed Model Repeated Measure (MMRM) analysis was used to calculate Least Squares (LS) mean and standard error. LS mean values are controlled for visit, pooled investigative site, treatment, standard of care (SOC) type, baseline positive symptom stratum, treatment*visit, baseline AIMS 1-7 total score, and baseline AIMS 1-7 total score*visit.
Number of Participants With Incidence of Epileptiform Activity Outside of Normal Range in Electroencephalograms (EEGs)
Incidence of epileptiform activity outside of normal range in EEGs is based on the changes from normal (E0) or within normal range (E1) at baseline to questionably epileptiform (E2) or clearly epileptiform (E3) or seizure (E4) post-baseline. E0 = Normal; E1 (within normal range) = fewer than 3 focal abnormalities or non-epileptiform abnormalities; E2 (questionably epileptiform) = 3 to 10 focal discharges and/or 1 to 10 multifocal or generalized discharges; E3 (clearly epileptiform) = Sharp/slow complex, runs of epileptiform abnormalities, greater than 10 total epileptiform discharges; and E4 = seizure.
Number of Participants With Incidence of Potentially Clinically Significant Changes in Corrected (for Rate) Cardiac QT Interval Using Fridericia's Formula (QTcF) Electrocardiograms (ECGs)
QT interval is a measure of the time between the start of the Q wave and the end of the T wave in the heart's electrical cycle. QTcF is the QT interval corrected for heart rate using the Fridericia formula. A potentially clinically significant change in QTcF is defined as >450 milliseconds (ms) for male and >470 ms for female.

Percentage of Participants With Incidence of Potentially Clinically Significant Change of Columbia-Suicide Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS)
Columbia Suicide Rating Scale (C-SSRS) captures occurrence, severity, and frequency of suicide-related thoughts and behaviors. Suicidal ideation: a "yes" answer to any one of 5 suicidal ideation questions: wish to be dead, and 4 different categories of active suicidal ideation. Suicidal behavior: a "yes" answer to any of 5 suicidal behavior questions: preparatory acts or behavior, aborted attempt, interrupted attempt, actual attempt, and completed suicide. Percentage of participants with incidence of potentially clinically significant change of the C-SSRS was calculated as the number of participants with an increase in suicidal behavior or ideation over baseline, divided by the total number of participants multiplied by 100.
Change From Baseline to Endpoint in Personal and Social Performance (PSP) Scale
The PSP scale is a 100-point, single item, clinician-rated scale to assess a participant's overall functioning, including personal and social relationships, socially useful activities, self-care, and disturbing and aggressive behaviors. The higher scores indicate a higher level of functioning. The Mixed Model Repeated Measure (MMRM) analysis was used to calculate Least Squares (LS) mean and standard error. LS mean values are controlled for visit, pooled investigative site, treatment, standard of care (SOC) type, baseline positive symptom stratum, treatment*visit, baseline PSP score, and baseline PSP score*visit.
Time to Discontinuation From the Study Due to Any Reason
The time to discontinuation due to any reason was defined as the total number of days between the date of first dose and discontinuation date. The time to discontinuation was analyzed using Kaplan-Meier estimated survival curves. Participants who completed the study were considered censored. Less than 50% of participants discontinued from study at randomization treatment Week 16 endpoint, therefore median values were not calculated.
Schizophrenia Resource Use Module (S-RUM) - Number of Emergency Room (ER) or Equivalent Facility Visits and Outpatient Medical Visits
The S-RUM is a 31-item questionnaire to assess the participant's occupation (work and home), living arrangements, encounters with law enforcement, victimization, ER visits, and outpatient medical visits for a specified period of time. Item 1 asks about the number of ER or equivalent facility visits a participant had for psychiatric (psych) illness. Item 2 asks about the number of ER or equivalent facility visits a participant had for non-psychiatric (non-psych) illness or injury. Item 5 asks about the number of outpatient visits to other physicians (not psychiatrists or dentists).
Schizophrenia Resource Use Module (S-RUM) - Number of Sessions With a Psychiatrist
The S-RUM is a 31-item questionnaire to assess the participant's occupation (work and home), living arrangements, encounters with law enforcement, victimization, Emergency Room (ER) visits, and outpatient medical visits for a specified period of time. Item 4 asks about the number of sessions with a psychiatrist a participant had.
Change From Baseline to Endpoint in the EuroQol Questionnaire-5 Dimension (EQ-5D) Visual Analog Scale (VAS) Health State Score
The EQ-5D is a generic, multidimensional, health-related, quality-of-life instrument that contains 2 parts: a health status profile and a visual analog scale (VAS) to rate global health-related quality of life. VAS health state scores range from 0 (worst imaginable health state) to 100 (best imaginable health state). The Mixed Model Repeated Measure (MMRM) analysis was used to calculate Least Squares (LS) mean and standard error. LS mean values are controlled for visit, pooled investigative site, treatment, standard of care (SOC) type, baseline positive symptom stratum, treatment*visit, baseline VAS health state score, and baseline VAS health state score*visit.
Change From Baseline to Endpoint in the Subjective Well-Being Under Neuroleptic Treatment-Short Form (SWN-SF) Total Score
The SWN-SF measures subjective well-being for the previous 7 days. The 20-item scale covers 5 health domains (subscales; 4 items each): emotional regulation, self-control, mental functioning, social integration, and physical functioning. Individual scores range from 1 (not at all) to 6 (very much). Each of the 5 subscale scores range from 4 to 24. SWN-SF total scores range from 20 to 120. Higher scores indicate greater well-being. The Mixed Model Repeated Measure (MMRM) analysis was used to calculate Least Squares (LS) mean and standard error. LS mean values are controlled for visit, pooled investigative site, treatment, standard of care (SOC) type, baseline positive symptom stratum, treatment*visit, baseline SWN-SF total score, and baseline SWN-SF total score*visit.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to determine whether LY2140023, when added to standard-of-care antipsychotic treatment, will improve negative symptoms.
Detailed Description
The primary objective of this study was to test the hypothesis that treatment with LY2140023 compared to placebo, when added to a fixed dose of a standard of care (SOC) antipsychotic, would demonstrate significantly greater reduction of negative symptoms, as assessed by the 16-item Negative Symptom Assessment scale (NSA-16), in patients with schizophrenia. Patients included in this study were concurrently receiving 1 of 4 second generation antipsychotics (SGAs): aripiprazole, olanzapine, risperidone, or quetiapine.

Items 11 and 12 are yes/no questions regarding the dental condition of a subject. The AIMS 1-7 total score is the total of items 1 through 7 of the AIMS, and ranges from 0 to 28. Higher scores indicate greater severity of illness. The Mixed Model Repeated Measure (MMRM) analysis was used to calculate Least Squares (LS) mean and standard error. LS mean values are controlled for visit, pooled investigative site, treatment, standard of care (SOC) type, baseline positive symptom stratum, treatment*visit, baseline AIMS 1-7 total score, and baseline AIMS 1-7 total score*visit.

Number of Participants With Incidence of Epileptiform Activity Outside of Normal Range in Electroencephalograms (EEGs)
Description
Incidence of epileptiform activity outside of normal range in EEGs is based on the changes from normal (E0) or within normal range (E1) at baseline to questionably epileptiform (E2) or clearly epileptiform (E3) or seizure (E4) post-baseline. E0 = Normal; E1 (within normal range) = fewer than 3 focal abnormalities or non-epileptiform abnormalities; E2 (questionably epileptiform) = 3 to 10 focal discharges and/or 1 to 10 multifocal or generalized discharges; E3 (clearly epileptiform) = Sharp/slow complex, runs of epileptiform abnormalities, greater than 10 total epileptiform discharges; and E4 = seizure.
