NCT07550387

Brief Summary

This is a Phase 2b, randomized, double-blind, parallel-group, active-controlled and placebo-controlled, multicenter inpatient study to examine the efficacy and safety of HS-10380 in adult Participants who are acutely psychotic with a Diagnostic and Statistical Manual Fifth Edition (DSM-5) diagnosis of schizophrenia. The primary objective of the study is to assess the efficacy of HS-10380 versus placebo in reducing Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS) total scores in adult inpatients with a DSM-5 diagnosis of schizophrenia. The secondary objectives of the study are to evaluate the response rate, improvement in disease severity and symptoms, safety and tolerability, and pharmacokinetics.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Change from Baseline in Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS) Total Score at Week 6 (Day 42)

    The PANSS is a medical scale used for measuring symptom severity of participants with schizophrenia. The PANSS rating form contains 7 positive symptom scales, 7 negative system scales, and 16 general psychopathology symptom scales. Participants were rated from 1 to 7 on each symptom scale. The total score is the sum of all scales with a minimum score of 30 and a maximum score of 210. A decrease in PANSS total score correlates with an improvement in schizophrenia symptoms.

    Baseline and Week 6

Secondary Outcomes (5)

  • Percentage of Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS) Responders (>=40% Change in PANSS Total Score) at Day 42

    Baseline and Week 6

  • Change in Marder 5-factor score of the PANSS scale at Day 42 compared with baseline

    Baseline and Week 6

  • Change in Calgary Depression Scale for Schizophrenia (CDSS) score at Day 42 compared with baseline

    Baseline and Week 6

  • Change from Baseline in Clinical Global Impression-Severity (CGI-S) Score at Day 42

    Baseline and Week 6

  • Clinical Global Impression-Improvement (CGI-I) Score at Day 42
