An Extension Study to Assess Long-term Safety, Tolerability, and Efficacy of KarXT in Adult Patients With Schizophrenia (EMERGENT-4)

An SAE is any untoward medical occurrence, in the view of either the investigator or sponsor, that results in death; is life-threatening; results in inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization; results in persistent or significant disability/incapacity, and/or; is a congenital anomaly/birth defect using the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI CTCAE), version 5.0.

TEAEs are defined as events with an onset date on or after the first dose of KarXT. An Adverse Event is any symptom, physical sign, syndrome, or disease that either emerges during the study or, if present at baseline, worsens during the study, regardless of the suspected cause of the event using the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI CTCAE), version 5.0.

The PANSS rating form contains 7 positive symptom scales, 7 negative system scales, and 16 general psychopathology symptom scales. Participants are rated from 1 to 7 on each symptom scale. The positive symptoms in schizophrenia are the excess or distortion of normal function and the negative symptoms are the diminution or loss of normal functions. PANSS total score is the sum of all 30 items with a minimum score of 30 and a maximum score of 210. Higher scores indicate more severe symptoms. Open-label Extension Baseline (OLEB) is defined as the most recent measurement prior to the first administration of study drug in KAR-008. The assessments performed on Visit 10 (Day 35) of studies KAR-007 or KAR-009 will be considered for OLEB baseline along with any additional procedures that will be performed on Day 0 of KAR-008.

PANSS positive score is the sum of all PANSS 7 positive symptom scales with a minimum score of 7 and a maximum score of 49. Higher scores indicate more severe symptoms. Participants are rated from 1 to 7 on each symptom scale. The positive symptoms in schizophrenia are the excess or distortion of normal function such as hallucinations, delusions, grandiosity, and hostility. Open-label Extension Baseline (OLEB) is defined as the most recent measurement prior to the first administration of study drug in KAR-008. The assessments performed on Visit 10 (Day 35) of studies KAR-007 or KAR-009 will be considered for OLEB baseline along with any additional procedures that will be performed on Day 0 of KAR-008.

PANSS negative score is the sum of all PANSS 7 negative symptom scales with a minimum score of 7 and a maximum score of 49. Higher scores indicate more severe symptoms. Participants are rated from 1 to 7 on each symptom scale. The negative symptoms in schizophrenia are the diminution or loss of normal functions. Open-label Extension Baseline (OLEB) is defined as the most recent measurement prior to the first administration of study drug in KAR-008. The assessments performed on Visit 10 (Day 35) of studies KAR-007 or KAR-009 will be considered for OLEB baseline along with any additional procedures that will be performed on Day 0 of KAR-008.

PANSS Negative Marder Factor Score is the sum of 5 negative scales and 2 general scales (N1. Blunted affect; N2. Emotional withdrawal; N3. Poor rapport; N4. Passive/apathetic social withdrawal; N6. Lack of spontaneity; G7. Motor retardation; and G16. Active social avoidance). Participants are rated from 1 to 7 on each symptom scale. Higher score indicates more severe symptoms. The negative symptoms in schizophrenia are the diminution or loss of normal functions. Open-label Extension Baseline (OLEB) is defined as the most recent measurement prior to the first administration of study drug in KAR-008. The assessments performed on Visit 10 (Day 35) of studies KAR-007 or KAR-009 will be considered for OLEB baseline along with any additional procedures that will be performed on Day 0 of KAR-008.

Completed independently by a clinician, the CGI-S categorizes the severity of the illness as: 1 = Normal, not at all ill; 2 = Borderline mentally ill; 3 = Mildly ill; 4 = Moderately ill; 5 = Markedly ill; 6 = Severely ill; and 7 = Among the most extremely ill patients, by asking the clinical 1 question and providing a rating based upon observed and reported symptoms, behavior, and function in the past 7 days to reflect the average severity level across the 7 days. Higher score indicates more severe illness. Open-label Extension Baseline (OLEB) is defined as the most recent measurement prior to the first administration of study drug in KAR-008. The assessments performed on Visit 10 (Day 35) of studies KAR-007 or KAR-009 will be considered for OLEB baseline along with any additional procedures that will be performed on Day 0 of KAR-008.

A PANSS responder is defined as a participant with reduction from open-label extension baseline (OLEB) of at least a 30% improvement at Week 52 in the PANSS total score. The PANSS rating form contains 7 positive symptom scales, 7 negative system scales, and 16 general psychopathology symptom scales. Participants are rated from 1 to 7 on each symptom scale. PANSS total score is the sum of all 30 items with a minimum score of 30 and a maximum score of 210. Higher scores indicate more severe symptoms. OLEB is defined as the most recent measurement prior to the first administration of study drug in KAR-008. The assessments performed on Visit 10 (Day 35) of studies KAR-007 or KAR-009 will be considered for OLEB baseline along with any additional procedures that will be performed on Day 0 of KAR-008.
