Clinical Trial Summary

This is an efficacy and safety study evaluating an experimental treatment for cognitive deficits in adults with schizophrenia.


Clinical Trial Description

This is a Phase 2 study designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ABT-288 in approximately 210 adults with schizophrenia. Subjects will be randomized to one of three treatment groups (ABT-288 Dose 1, ABT-288 Dose 2 or placebo) for a 12-week Treatment Period. The purpose of this research study is to find out whether ABT-288 compared to placebo can improve cognition and what side effects ABT 288 may cause. Cognition is the way a person thinks, and it includes abilities like paying attention, focusing, remembering things, and solving problems.
