Primary | Change in the Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS) | The neuropsychiatric symptoms of schizophrenia will be assessed using the 30-item PANSS, which provides a total score (sum of the scores of all 30 items) and scores for 3 subscales, the positive subscale (7 items), the negative subscale (7 items), and the general psychopathology subscale (16 items). Each question is rated on a scale of 1 (absent) to 7 (extreme). | Baseline to 4 months | No |
Secondary | Change from Baseline in global severity of illness using the clinical global impression - severity (CGI-S) scores | The CGI-S is a 7-point scale that requires the clinician to rate the severity of the patient's illness at the time of assessment, relative to the clinician's past experience with patients who have the same diagnosis. Considering total clinical experience, the patient will be assessed on severity of mental illness at the time of rating between 1 (not ill) and 7 (extremely severe). | Baseline to 4 months | No |
Secondary | Change from Baseline in the personal and social performance scale (PSP) | The PSP scale assesses the degree of dysfunction a patient exhibits over a 7-day period within 4 domains of behavior:(a) socially useful activities, (b) personal and social relationships, (c) self-care, and (d) disturbing and aggressive behavior. A score between 71 and 100 indicates only mild difficulties, and one between 31 and 70 indicates varying degrees of disability. A patient with a score of 30 or less has functioning so poor he or she requires intensive support or supervision.. | Baseline to 4 months | No |
