Primary outcomes

  1. Long-term Change in Negative Symptoms of Schizophrenia Measured by the Negative Symptom Assessment (NSA) Scale

    Time frame: Baseline of Protocol 25543 (NCT 00212836) to 365 days (total time for both protocols 25543 & 25544)

    Decrease from baseline in the NSA scores indicates improvement of efficacy. Range NSA total score is 16 [best]-96 [worst].

Secondary outcomes

  1. Change in Quality of Life Measured by Quality of Life Scale (QLS)

    Time frame: Baseline of Protocol 25543 (NCT 00212836) to 365 days (total time for both protocols 25543 & 25544)

    Increase from baseline in the QLS scores indicates improvement of efficacy. Range QLS total score is 0 [worst]-126 [best].
