About this study

Official title: An Open-label Study to Assess the Long-term Safety, Tolerability, and Efficacy of KarXT in De Novo Subjects With DSM-5 Schizophrenia

This is a Phase 3, multicenter, 56-week, outpatient, open-label (OL) study to evaluate the long-term safety, tolerability, and efficacy of KarXT in de novo subjects with Diagnostic and Statistical Manual-Fifth Edition (DSM-5) schizophrenia. In this OL study, all subjects will receive KarXT (a fixed combination of xanomeline 125 mg and trospium chloride 30 mg twice daily [BID]) for up to 52 weeks. The primary objective of the study is to assess the long-term safety and tolerability of KarXT in subjects with a DSM-5 diagnosis of schizophrenia. The secondary objective of this study is to assess the long-term efficacy and characterize the pharmacokinetics of xanomeline and trospium after administration of KarXT.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Xanomeline and Trospium Chloride CapsulesDrug

    Also called KarXT

    Oral xanomeline 50 mg/trospium 20 mg BID on days 1-2 followed by xanomeline 100 mg/trospium 20 mg BID on days 3-7. The dose is increased to xanomeline 125 mg/trospium 30 mg BID on days 8-364 unless the subject is experiencing adverse events from the xanomeline 100 mg/ trospium 20 mg dose. Subjects who were increased to xanomeline 125 mg/trospium 30 mg will have the option to return to xanomeline 100 mg/ trospium 20 mg depending on clinical response and tolerability. Re-escalation to 125/30 BID or re-titration in cases in which the subject has been off KarXT for a longer period of time (at least a week) is allowed and will require a discussion between the principal investigator and the medical monitor.

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Participants With Treatment Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs)

    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.

    Measured: From time of consent to end of study (approximately 400 days)

Secondary outcomes (21)
  1. Number of Participants With Serious Treatment Emergent Adverse Events (STEAEs)

    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.

    Measured: From time of consent to end of study (approximately 400 days)

  2. Number of Participants With TEAE Leading to Study Drug Discontinuation

    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.

    Measured: From time of consent to end of study (approximately 400 days)

  3. Change From Baseline in PANSS Total Score at Week 52

    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.

    Measured: At baseline and week 52

  4. Change From Baseline in PANSS Positive Score at Week 52

    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.

    Measured: At baseline and week 52

  5. Change From Baseline in PANSS Negative Score at Week 52

    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.

    Measured: At baseline and week 52

  6. Change From Baseline in PANSS Marder Factor Negative Score at Week 52

    PANSS Marder factor score is a subscale of the PANSS; 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 subscale. Higher score indicates more severe symptoms. The negative symptoms in schizophrenia are the diminution or loss of normal functions.

    Measured: At baseline and week 52

  7. Change From Baseline in Clinical Global Impressions-severity (CGI-S) Score Week 52

    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.

    Measured: At baseline and week 52

  8. Percentage of Participants With a ≥30% Reduction in PANSS Total Score at Week 52

    A PANSS responder is defined as a participant with a reduction from baseline 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.

    Measured: At baseline and week 52

  9. Number of Participants With Adverse Events of Special Interest (AESI)

    LFT elevations, inclusive of drug-induced liver injury (DILI) and symptomatic orthostasis including syncope (a transient loss of consciousness or fainting) is to be captured as an AESI and reported as such. Non symptomatic orthostasis will not be reported as an AESI. Any such AESI due to any cause, whether or not related to KarXT, must be reported within 24 hours of occurrence or when the investigator becomes aware of the event.

    Measured: From time of consent to end of study (approximately 400 days)

  10. Number of Participants With Anticholinergic and Procholinergic Symptoms

    The number of participants experiencing adverse events related to procholinergic symptoms (believed to be associated with xanomeline) and anticholinergic symptoms (believed to be associated with trospium) symptoms. Examples of procholinergic symptoms include vomiting, nausea, diarrhea, sweating and hyper-salivation. Examples of anticholinergic include dizziness, confusion, hallucinations, and somnolence.

    Measured: From time of consent to end of study (approximately 400 days)

  11. Change From Baseline in Simpson-Angus Rating Scale (SAS)

    The Simpson-Angus Rating Scale (SAS) is a clinical tool used to assess the severity of extrapyramidal symptoms (EPS), which are drug-induced movement disorders often associated with antipsychotic medications. The scale consists of 10 items, each rated from 0 (none) to 4 (severe), with a total score range of 0 to 40.

    Higher scores indicate more severe symptoms.

    The SAS helps clinicians monitor and manage EPS in patients, guiding treatment decisions to minimize these side effects.

    Measured: From time of consent to end of study (approximately 400 days)

  12. Change From Baseline in Barnes Akathisia Rating Scale (BARS)

    The BARS for akathisia is a rating scale used to assess the severity of drug-induced akathisia, or restlessness, involuntary movements and inability to sit still. The range of scores is 0 to 14, with higher scores indicating greater severity.

    Measured: From time of consent to end of study (approximately 400 days)

  13. Change From Baseline in Total Abnormal Involuntary Movement Scale (AIMS)

    The Abnormal Involuntary Movement Scale (AIMS) is a tool used to assess the severity of tardive dyskinesia and other involuntary movements, often caused by antipsychotic medications. It includes 12 items, with the first 10 focusing on specific body areas and movement severity, rated from 0 (none) to 4 (severe).

    The total score ranges from 0 to 28, with higher scores indicating more severe symptoms.

    AIMS helps clinicians monitor and manage these movement disorders, guiding treatment adjustments to reduce side effects.

    Measured: From time of consent to end of study (approximately 400 days)

    A complete physical examination (body temperature, general appearance, head/eyes/ears/nose/throat [HEENT], examination of thorax and abdomen, assessment of cardiac, musculoskeletal, and circulatory systems, palpations for lymphadenopathy, and limited neurological examination) will be performed.

    A targeted physical examination includes at a minimum body temperature, a check of general appearance, as well as examination of organ systems that are relevant to the investigator based on review of the participant's reported AEs, review of systems, or concomitant medication use. These also include symptom-driven physical examinations which will be performed as clinically indicated at any study visit.

    Measured: From time of consent to end of study (approximately 400 days)

  21. Number of Participants With Suicidal Ideation Based on the Columbia Suicide Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS)

    The Columbia Suicide Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS) is a tool used to assess the severity and immediacy of suicidal ideation and behavior. It covers suicidal thoughts, plans, and actions, including the frequency, intensity, and context of these behaviors. The C-SSRS does not use a numerical scoring system like some other assessment tools. Instead, it categorizes the severity of suicidal ideation and behavior based on specific criteria. The scale helps clinicians identify individuals at risk of suicide and monitor changes over time, guiding treatment decisions and ensuring safety. It is quick and easy to administer, making it useful in various clinical and research settings.

    Measured: From time of consent to end of study (approximately 400 days)

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 17 inclusion and 18 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 17 Sep 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 117 sites in United States, Puerto Rico. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 17 Sep 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?

Number of Participants With Treatment Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) (time frame: From time of consent to end of study (approximately 400 days)). 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 17 Sep 2025.
