Summary

This phase 3 trial tests whether KarXT (a combination of xanomeline and trospium chloride) can prevent relapse in people with schizophrenia. Participants who have had a recent hospitalization for schizophrenia and still have symptoms will receive KarXT or a placebo. The study measures how long it takes for a relapse to occur and tracks side effects.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Xanomeline/Trospium Chloride (KarXT)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could provide a new treatment option to help people with schizophrenia maintain stability and avoid relapse.
What could go wrong
This is an early-phase trial, and results may not confirm effectiveness. Side effects related to cholinergic activity are possible.
