Participant Flow

Subjects who successfully completed the Day 85 visit in Study ALK9072-003 and continued to meet eligibility criteria were eligible to enroll in this extension study. In addition, adults with chronic stable schizophrenia on a stable oral antipsychotic medication not previously enrolled in Study ALK9072-003 were also eligible to enroll.

While there were only 2 treatment groups in this extension study (low dose and high dose), data for several outcome measures is presented by lead-in study groups, and separated into 5 categories: PBO-441 mg, 441-441 mg, PBO-882 mg, 882-882 mg, and de novo.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: 52 weeks

Population: The full analysis set consists of all subjects who received at least 1 dose of ALKS 9072 and had at least 1 postbaseline assessment of PANSS score after administration of ALKS 9072.

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 Day 365 based on the observed data.

The C-SSRS is a questionnaire used for suicide assessment. Subjects are asked a series of questions that determine whether or not the patient demonstrates any suicidal ideation or behavior. The C-SSRS was administered to subjects at each study visit.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: 52 weeks

Population: The full analysis set consisted of all subjects who received at least 1 dose of ALKS 9072 and had at least 1 postbaseline assessment of PANSS total score after administration of ALKS 9072.

This scale consists of symptom constructs (7 positive, 7 negative, 16 general psychopathology), each to be rated on a 7-point Likert-type scale of severity with 1 being absent to 7 being extreme. Minimum scores (best outcome) equals 30 (total scale), 7 (positive/negative subscales), and 16 (general subscale); maximum scores (worst outcome) equals 210 (total scale), 49 (positive/negative subscales), and 112 (general subscale).
