Study Summary

ML-007C-MA-211 is a Phase 2, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of orally administered ML-007C-MA in inpatient adult participants aged 18 to 64 years with schizophrenia experiencing an acute exacerbation of psychosis. The primary objective is to evaluate the efficacy of ML-007C-MA compared with placebo in the treatment of subjects with inadequately controlled symptoms of schizophrenia as measured by the Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS) Total Score.

Primary Outcome

The PANSS is a medical scale used for measuring symptom severity of participants with schizophrenia. 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 total score is the sum of all scales with a minimum score of 30 and a maximum score of 210. A decrease in PANSS total score correlates with an improvement in schizophrenia symptoms.
