  • No clinically relevant abnormal laboratory values.
  • No clinically relevant abnormal vital sign values/findings.
  • Females who participate in this study:
  • are unable to become pregnant (eg, premenarchal, surgically sterile etc) -OR-
  • are willing to remain sexually abstinent (not engage in sexual intercourse) from Day 1 to 30 days after discharge on Day 11; -OR-

  • Willing and able to remain off any antipsychotic medication other than lurasidone for the duration of the study, if, in the investigator's opinion the subject is not at risk for worsening symptoms.
  • Willing and able to swallow the size and number of lurasidone tablets specified per protocol.
  • Willing and able to adhere to protocol-specified meal requirements during dosing.
  • Have a stable living arrangement for at least 3 months prior to Day -1 and agrees to return to a similar living arrangement after discharge on Day 11. Homeless subjects may not be enrolled.
