Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Change from baseline to Week 6 on the Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale6 weeksDetermine whether LB-102, demonstrates antipsychotic efficacy, as determined by a change from Baseline on the Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS) total score, compared to placebo: increase in scale indicates worsening while a decrease in the scale likely indicates a response to treatment

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Evaluate the Safety and Tolerability of LB-10210 weeksEvaluate the safety and tolerability of LB-102 in patients by evaluating adverse events
Change in Clinical Global Impressions-Severity of Illness scale (CGI-S)6 weeksAssess the effect of LB-102 on the treatment for schizophrenia, as determined by a change from Baseline in the Clinical Global Impressions Severity of Illness scale: whereas increase demonstrates worsening of illness and decrease in score likely indicates response to treatment
