A Safety Study Comparing LY2140023 to Atypical Antipsychotic Standard Treatment in Schizophrenic Patients

A Phase 2, multicenter, randomized, parallel, open-label study comparing the long-term safety and tolerability of LY2140023 with atypical antipsychotic agents considered to be the current SOC for patients with schizophrenia. The study included a 24-week active treatment phase and an optional 28-week active treatment extension phase. The time to discontinuation due to AEs during Study Period III (24-week active treatment phase) was compared between LY2140023 and standard of care using the log-rank test from the Kaplan-Meier survival analysis. Patients who completed Study Period III or who discontinued for a reason other than AEs were considered as censored observations. Secondary objectives were assessed during both Study Period III \[Active Treatment Phase\] and Study Period IV \[Active Treatment Extension Phase\]) except for treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs), extrapyramidal symptoms (EPS), electroencephalograms (EEGs), electrocardiograms (ECGs) (analysis for Study Period III only) (indicated in "Time Frame" in "Results" section)
