Arms of the Study

Arm 1

Arm Type

Experimental

Arm Label

NCT00102063 and NCT00110461 Subjects

Arm Description

All subjects had either completed or had withdrawn from the double-blind extension phase of study NCT00110461 (OPDC 31-03-240) and study NCT00102063 (OPDC 31-03-239).

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Percentage of Subjects Experiencing SAEs
Percentage of Subjects Experiencing SAEs. The incidences of SAEs are summarized by system organ class in CT-8.5.1; by system organ class and MedDRA preferred term and by system organ class, MedDRA preferred term, and severity.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Change in Change in Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS) Total Score
Change from baseline to the last scheduled post-baseline evaluation in PANSS total score, using observed cases (assessments performed at baseline and weeks 4, 12, and 26). This scale consists of symptom constructs (7 positive, 7 negative, 16 general psychopathology), each to be rated on a 7-point scale of severity with 1 being absent to 7 being extreme. Minimum score is 30 which is best outcome; maximum score is 210 for worse outcome.
Change in Young Mania Rating Scale (Y-MRS) Total Score
Change from baseline to last scheduled post-baseline evaluation in YMRS total score, using observed cases (assessments performed at baseline and weeks 4, 12, and 26). The Y-MRS consists of 11 items assessing the core symptoms of mania. Each item has 5 grades of severity. Minimum score on the scale is 0 (absent or normal). Maximum score on the scale is 60 (worse outcome or more severe symptoms).
