CEPH announced the primary endpoint was not met in a Phase II clinical trial that examined NUVIGIL (armodafinil) Tablets [C-IV] as an adjunctive therapy for the treatment of the negative symptoms of schizophrenia, which include problems with motivation and emotional withdrawal. The analysis of the data showed that treatment with armodafinil did not lessen the severity of the negative symptoms of schizophrenia compared to placebo in the 24-week study. As a result of the outcome of this trial, Cephalon has decided not to move forward with this clinical program.
