What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

Change From Baseline to Day 28 in Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS) Total Score
The PANSS is a 30-item scale used to measure symptoms of schizophrenia. The scale has 7 positive symptom items, 7 negative symptom items, and 16 general psychopathology symptom items. Each item is scored on a 7-point scale by the clinical rater based on a clinical interview with the patient, with a score of 1 indicating the absence of symptoms and a score of 7 indicating extremely severe symptoms. Thus, the PANSS Total score minimum is 30 and the maximum is 210, with higher numbers indicating more severe symptoms.
Measured: 28 days

Secondary outcomes (1)

Change From Baseline to Day 28 in Clinical Global Impressions-Severity of Illness Scale
The Clinical Global Impressions (CGI) Scale is a standardized assessment tool that the clinician can use to rate the severity of illness, change over time, and efficacy of medication, taking into account the subject's clinical condition and the severity of side effects. The CGI Scale consists of 3 global subscales, only one of which was used in the present study. The first subscale, Severity of Illness (CGI-S), assesses the clinician's impression of the subject's current illness state; it is often used both before and after treatment. Scores on the Severity of Illness subscale range from 1 = "not ill" at all to 7 = "among the most extremely ill."
Measured: 28 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing ITI-007 in people with Schizophrenia, run by Intra-Cellular Therapies, Inc. at 11 sites in United States.

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 2 inclusion and 3 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 2 Oct 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 11 sites in United States. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 2 Oct 2025). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Change From Baseline to Day 28 in Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS) Total Score (time frame: 28 days). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02282761, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 2 Oct 2025.
