Outcomes
Primary Outcome Measures
Change From Baseline to Last Treatment Visit in Clinical Global Impressions-Severity (CGI-S) Scores
The CGI-S is a 7-point scale that requires the clinician to assess how mentally ill the patient is in a specific point in time. Results indicate participants evaluated at one of the following categories: "1: normal, not at all ill"; "2: borderline mentally ill"; "3: mildly ill"; "4: moderately ill"; "5: markedly ill"; "6: severely ill"; and "7: among the most extremely ill patients". Results indicate a change in CGI-S score from baseline to last visit in the treatment period based on the observed data.
Secondary Outcome Measures
Change From Baseline to Last Treatment Visit in Brief Psychiatric Rating Scale (BPRS) Scores
The BPRS is an instrument for evaluating change in psychopathology in patients with schizophrenia. It consists of 18 items in which clinicians rate patient symptoms on a 7-point scale (1=not present, 7=extremely severe). Scores range from 18 to 126, with higher scores indicative of more severe psychopathology).
Number of Participants With Adverse Events
Daily and Social Functioning Will be Measured Using the Heinrichs-Carpenter Quality of Life Scale (QLS)
The QLS is a clinician-rated scale that is used to assess health-related quality of life and functioning in patients with schizoprehnia during the preceding 4 weeks. The QLS consists of 21 items in 4 major domains (Intrapsychic Foundations, Interpersonal Relations, Instrumental Role, and Common Objects and Activities). Following a semi-structured interview, each item is rated on a 7-point scale, from 0 (severe impairment) to 6 (normal or unimpaired functioning).
Characterization of Healthcare Burden Will be Measured Using the Treatment Services Review, Version 6-Modified for Mental Health (mTSR-6)
Responses to 4 mTSR-6 questions have been provided. Results include the number of participants who responded positively to the category during the entire post-baseline treatment period.
Characterization of Family Burden Will be Measured Using the Burden Assessment Scale (BAS)
The BAS is a 19-item scale completed by the caregiver that focuses on specific subjective and objective consequences of families caring for individuals with severe mental disorders. Respondents are required to indicate whether they have experienced each of the types of burden - 'Not at all', 'A little', 'Some' or "A lot' - in the previous four weeks. These are scored 1, 2, 3 and 4, respectively. The total score ranges between 19 and 76. A higher score indicates more perceived burden. Subjects required a reliable informant (caregiver) in order to participate in the study. These caregivers did not receive study treatment, and they are not represented elsewhere in the results data. The data provided indicates the change from baseline to the last treatment visit.
