  1. ANCOVA analysis of covariance, LS least squares, PANSS positive and negative syndrome scale, X/T xanomeline/trospium.
  2. aIncludes pooled data from three studies (EMERGENT-1, EMERGENT-2, and EMERGENT-3), based upon available paired data at baseline and endpoint (or early termination) (N = 575).
  3. bResults from ANCOVA model adjusting for baseline PANSS total score, age, sex, study, rater, treatment, and rater by treatment interaction.
