Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Schizophrenia is a chronic mental disorder characterized by the occurrence of both positive symptoms, such as hallucinations and delusions, and negative symptoms, such as apathy and withdrawal, repetition of cognitive skills and disorganization. There are approximately 20 million people with schizophrenia worldwide and this number will continue to increase every year.
