Summary

This study tests an experimental oral drug called GXV813 in 142 hospitalized adults with schizophrenia. The goal is to see if it safely reduces symptoms like hallucinations and withdrawal during an acute episode. Participants are randomly assigned to receive GXV813 or a placebo, and neither they nor their doctors know which they get.

What this could lead to
