| Main Objective: The primary objective of this trial is to provide PoC data to assess the effect on cognition of oral once daily administration of BI 425809 given for 12 weeks in patients with schizophrenia on stable antipsychotic treatment and adjunctive CCT.;Secondary Objective: Other objectives of this trial are to explore endpoints to assess functioning and well-being of patients with schizophrenia, and to evaluate safety and pharmacokinetics of BI 425809.;Primary end point(s): 1) Change from baseline in neurocognitive function as measured by the neurocognitive composite score of the MCCB;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 1) 12 weeks | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
