Inclusion Criteria for Patients:
Inclusion Criteria for Caregivers. Written informed consent will be obtained from the designated caregiver for participation in study assessments. The caregiver must be sufficiently familiar with the patient (as determined by the investigator) to provide accurate data. Specifically, the caregiver must have sufficient contact with the patient to provide accurate reports of the patient's functioning, must be able to observe for possible adverse events, and must be able to accompany the patient to all visits. It is preferable that the caregiver be the same as in study E2020-G000-326. If no replacement caregiver is available who meets the caregiver inclusion/exclusion criteria, the patient must be discontinued from the study.
