Recruitment Details

Key information relevant to the recruitment process for the overall study, such as dates of the recruitment period and locations
Participants were recruited through referrals from clinicians in the outpatient clinical services at Western Psychiatric Institute & Clinic and through a Psychosis Registry. 29 males signed consent and 16 were eligible-one subject did not complete the study and is not included in any summary statistics. Recruitment period: 4/05 through 1/07.

Pre-Assignment Details

Significant events and approaches for the overall study following participant enrollment, but prior to group assignment
To ensure eligibility before randomization, the following were administered: a urine drug screen; diagnostic, medical history and adverse events ratings; Repeatable Battery for the Assessment of Neuropsychological Status (RBANS); electrocardiogram; blood tests (for kidney and liver function); and a complete eye exam, including a slit-lamp exam.

Reporting Groups

	Description
L-830982	The initial dose of L-830982 was 3.0 mg twice daily (b.i.d.) the dosage increased to 5.0 mg b.i.d. at the end of week 1 and 8.0 mg b.i.d. at the end of week 2, which was continued for the remaining 2 weeks of the trial. Medications were dispensed weekly in blister packs by the hospital pharmacy.
Placebo	Medications were dispensed weekly in blister packs by the hospital pharmacy, using the same number of pills as those on active drug.

The N-back task is a sequential-letter memory task for which working memory load is varied, as the respondent must indicate when the current stimulus matches the one from 'n' steps earlier in the sequence. Those with schizophrenia exhibit substantially impaired performance and decreased functional activation of the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) relative to matched comparison subjects for the 2-back load condition. 2-back condition was used as the dependent measure, as it provides the best index of performance and DLPFC disturbances in subjects with schizophrenia.

For the AX Continuous Performance Test (AXCPT), subjects are required to maintain an attentional set across a delay interval in order to overcome a prepotent response tendency (target responses are required when an X is presented but only in the context of a preceding A; non-target conditions are AY, BX and BY). The dependent measure was d-prime at the long delay (calculated as AX hits minus BX false alarms, which is particularly sensitive to context processing impairments in individuals with schizophrenia.

The Brief Psychiatric Rating Scale-anchored (BPRS; Overall and Gorham, 1962; Woerner, Mannuzza, Kane, 1988) is an 18-item scale that is among the most widely used measure of psychopathology. Scores range from 1-7, with higher scores reflecting greater pathology. A total score is derived from the sum of all 18 items (possible scores range from 18-126). It relies on clinical judgment in the assessment of key areas of psychopathology (depression, anxiety, psychosis).

Five index scores are computed from the RBANS (immediate memory, language, visuospatial, attention, delayed memory) that are combined to provide the Total Score. The Total Score is expressed as a standardized score normalized to a population mean of 100, with a standard deviation of 15 (possible scores 40-135). Higher scores reflect better performance. All subjects received the "A" form at baseline and the wk-4 visit and the "B" form at the wk-2 visit (the A/B forms are equivalent alternate forms, which allow for retesting patients without the confound of practice effects).

The Delayed Memory Index consists of verbal and nonverbal recall tasks (words, drawings) that the subject views early in the evaluation and without warning, is asked to recall ~1/2 hr later. Scores are expressed as standardized scores normalized to a population mean of 100, with a standard deviation of 15 (possible scores between 40-135). Higher scores reflect better performance. Subjects received the "A" form at baseline and wk-4 visit and the "B" form at the wk-2 visit (A/B forms are equivalent alternate forms, which allow for retesting patients without the confound of practice effects).

Limitations of the study, such as early termination leading to small numbers of participants analyzed and technical problems with measurement leading to unreliable or uninterpretable data
Small sample size; RBANS may lack appropriate sensitivity for short-term study; between-group differences in baseline clinical symptoms & neuropsychological function; excluding those with more modest cognitive impairments (RBANS standard score >90).
