Schizophrenia is the most common psychotic disease with a global prevalence in about 1% of the population, affecting approximately 3.5 million people in the U.S. and 20 million globally. Despite the high prevalence, there is currently no therapy that adequately addresses the complex mental disorder.
Current antipsychotics prescribed for schizophrenia are plagued with suboptimal efficacy, poor tolerability, adverse effects and abnormally high dropout rates.
As a result of suboptimal efficacy, the major symptoms of schizophrenia, such as chronic mood symptoms and cognitive dysfunction, are not adequately addressed to date. In addition, approved antipsychotics are reported to cause adverse effects at varying degrees including extrapyramidal symptoms (EPS), akathisia, obesity, diabetes, cholesterol and sexual dysfunction.
