Brief Summary:
This is a Phase II, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, cross-over POC study of stable patients with Schizophrenia or Schizoaffective disorder. The primary objective of this study is to test the efficacy of treatment with one of two does of a glycine transporter inhibitor (GlyT1I) combined with cognitive remediation to enhavce cognitive function. Subjects will be randomized to one of two doses of the glycine transporter inhibitor (GlyT1I) and placebo twice daily in addition to their antipsychotic medication for 2 treatment periods, each lasting a minimum of 5 weeks. Treatment periods will be separated by a washout period lasting approximately 3 weeks.

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Change in Measurement and Treatment Research to Improve Cognition in Schizophrenia (MATRICS) Consensus Cognitive Battery (MCCB) [ Time Frame: Change from baseline in cognitive measures at approximately 5 weeks. Mean scores were calculated per time point for each arm. ]
    To test the efficacy of PF-03463275 on cognitive test performance specifically, the MCCB composite score was used. The MCCB consists of 10 tests and provides standard scores and percentiles for each of seven cognitive domains and an overall composite score. Domains assessed include: speed of processing, attention/vigilance, working memory (verbal and visual), verbal learning, visual learning, reasoning and problem solving, and social cognition. The MCCB overall composite score is presented as a T-score. The range of T-scores is between 0 to 100 with a mean of 50 and standard deviation of 10. Higher scores indicate better overall cognitive functioning.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Alteration in Symptom Domain Scores and Event Related Potentials (ERPs) With PF-03463275 [ Time Frame: Change from Baseline at approximately 1 week ]
    To determine whether PF-03463275 impacts symptom domain scores and visual event related potentials (ERPs), analogous to long-term potentiation (LTP) with PF-03463275 treatment. A more positive value reflects a better outcome - there is no established range to report. A Z-score of 0 indicates the mean score. A positive z-score indicates the mean is higher than average.
