Change in total score of the Sheehan Suicidality Tracking Scale (S-STS)Subjects will be followed up to 14 days post-doseSheehan Suicidality Tracking Scale (S-STS) is a 16-item scale that assesses the seriousness of suicidality phenomena on a likert-type scale (0 to 4) ranging from 0 = not at all to 4 = extremely
Rates of adverse events and serious adverse eventsSubjects will be followed up to 14 days post-doseAdverse events and serious adverse events
Rates of early termination due to adverse eventsSubjects will be followed up to 14 days post-doseEarly termination due to adverse events
Change from baseline in vital signs, clinical laboratory values, and electrocardiogram resultsSubjects will be followed up to 14 days post-doseVital signs, clinical laboratory values, and electrocardiogram results
Change from baseline dissociative effects, psychosis, and hallucinatory symptoms as measured by the Neuropsychiatric Inventory (NPI-12)Subjects will be followed up to 14 days post-doseNeuropsychiatric Inventory (NPI-12) - NPI-12 assesses 12 behavioral domains common in dementia. Higher scores indicate more severe illness.
