Positive and Negative Symptoms of Schizophrenia (PANSS) Total Score at Baseline.
The PANSS is a 30-item scale (range 30-210) designed to assess various symptoms of schizophrenia including delusions, grandiosity, blunted affect, poor attention, and poor impulse control. The 30 symptoms are rated on a 7-point scale that ranges from 1 (absent) to 7 (extreme psychopathology). The PANSS total score consists of the sum of all 30 PANSS items. Higher scores indicate worsening.
Baseline
Positive and Negative Symptoms of Schizophrenia (PANSS) Total Score - Change From Baseline to Week 6 Last Observation Carried Forward (LOCF) End Point.
The PANSS is a 30-item scale (range 30-210) designed to assess various symptoms of schizophrenia including delusions, grandiosity, blunted affect, poor attention, and poor impulse control. The 30 symptoms are rated on a 7-point scale that ranges from 1 (absent) to 7 (extreme psychopathology). The PANSS total score consists of the sum of all 30 PANSS items. Higher scores indicate worsening.
The primary efficacy endpoint was the change from baseline to week 6 or the last post-randomization assessment during double-blind treatment in the PANSS total score.
