Summary

Lurasidone (lurasidone HCl) is a novel psychotropic agent that is being developed as a potential new antipsychotic treatment for patients with schizophrenia. Switching between antipsychotic medications is common in the treatment of schizophrenia. The purpose of this study is to characterize the long-term safety and tolerability of lurasidone in subjects with schizophrenia or schizoaffective disorder and to allow for continued treatment for subjects completing the core study (D1050289-NCT01143077).
