What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Absolute values and change from baseline in safety variables (Adverse events, clinical safety laboratory tets, vital signs, weight, and ECG)

    Time frame: Screening to day 78 (up to 8 weeks after last dose)

  2. Change from baseline in AIMS, BARS and SAS Total score

    Abnormal movement rating scale

    Time frame: Baseline to day 21

  3. Columbia Suicide Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS)

    Time frame: Sceening to day 78 (up to 8 weeks after last dose)

Secondary outcomes

  1. Day 21 area under the Lu AF35700 and Lu AF36152 plasma concentration-time curve from 0-24 hours post dose (AUC0-tau) in a daily dosing regime

    Time frame: Day 21 in the dosing period

  2. Maximum observed concentration (Cmax) of Lu AF35700 and Lu AF36152

    Time frame: Day 1 and 21 in the dosing period

  3. Half-lives (t½) of Lu AF35700 and Lu AF36152

    Time frame: Day 1 and 21 in the dosing period

  4. Day 14-21 area under the Lu AF35700 and LuAF36152 plasma-concentration-time curve from 0-168 hours post-dose (AUCtau) in a weekly dosing regimen
