- Subject has signed informed consent for this extension study, indicating that the subject understands the purpose of and procedures required for the study, before the initiation of any extension study specific procedures. Subjects who are unable to provide informed consent will not be included in the study
- No clinically significant changes in the subject's medical status during the participation in EVP-6124-015 or EVP-6124-016. Any significant changes in health care status and their impact on subject eligibility will be reviewed by the investigator and sponsor on a case-by-case basis.
- In the opinion of the investigator, the extension treatment is in the best interest of the subject.
- Fertile, sexually active subjects (men and women) must use an effective method of contraception during the study. Females and the female partners of male must be surgically sterile (hysterectomy or bilateral tubal ligation), postmenopausal for at least 1 year, willing to practice adequate methods of contraception if of childbearing potential (defined as consistent use of combined effective methods of contraception [including at least one barrier method]). Female subjects must have a negative urine pregnancy test predose on Day 1.
Who cannot join
- Significant risk for suicidal or violent behavior, as determined by the investigator. Significant risk for suicidal behavior is defined as 1) suicidal ideation as endorsed on items 4 and 5 of the Columbia-Suicide Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS); 2) suicidal behaviors detected by the C-SSRS; or 3) psychiatric interview and examination.
- Adverse events from the previous study (EVP-6124-015 or EVP-6124-016) that have not resolved, are of moderate or greater severity and judged to be possibly related or related to study drug and are thought by the investigator to be contraindications to study participation.
- Any condition which would make the subject, in the opinion of the investigator, unsuitable for the study.
- Female subjects who are pregnant.
- Subjects who received any other investigational treatment during participation in either EVP-6124-015 or EVP-6124-016 other than assigned study medication.

A Phase 3 study testing EVP-6124 in people with Schizophrenia and Impaired Cognition, run by FORUM Pharmaceuticals Inc at 128 sites in 16 countries.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 3 May 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 128 sites in United States, Ukraine, Romania, Russia, Canada and 11 more countries. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
What does this phase mean?
Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
Are results available for this study?
The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Safety and Tolerability of EVP-6124 or Placebo in Subjects with Schizophrenia (time frame: Baseline through Day 182 or Early Termination). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 3 May 2016.
