Study of Efficacy of PEAR-004 in Schizophrenia

This was a randomized, sham-controlled, rater-blinded, parallel group trial. Overall, 112 subjects were randomized 1:1 in to the following groups: * Group A: Clinician-directed pharmacotherapy + PEAR-004 * Group B: Clinician-directed pharmacotherapy + sham app An up to 28-day screening period included standard screening assessments as defined in the assessment schedule. Eligible subjects were randomized on Day 1 into one of the treatment groups. Subjects in both groups continued to receive their clinician-directed standard-of-care treatment for schizophrenia, including pharmacotherapy. Subjects in Group A used PEAR 004 and subjects in Group B used a sham for a period of 12 weeks. Subjects returned to the clinic for outpatient visits at Week 4 (day 29), Week 8 (day 57), and Week 12 (day 85). At each visit, standard assessments were performed according to the assessment schedule, including PANSS, ISST-Plus, CGI, BMQ, MAP-SR, WHOQOL-BREF, BDI-II, ISI, and adverse events (AEs). A final follow-up visit was performed at Week 16 (day 115),
