SYNOPSIS 
Name of Sponsor/Company: Alkermes, Inc. 
Name of Investigational Product: ALKS 3831 
Name of Active Ingredient: olanzapine and samidorphan 
Title of study: A Phase 3, Multicenter Study to Assess the Long Term Safety and Tolerability of 
ALKS 3831 in Subjects with Schizophrenia 
Investigator(s): This is a multicenter study 
Study Period: 
Estimated date of first subject’s consent: Q3 2016 
Estimated date of last subject’s last visit: Q4 2018 
Phase of Development: 3 
 
Objectives: 
Primary: The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the long term safety and tolerability of 
ALKS 3831 in subjects with schizophrenia. 
Methodology: Subjects that have completed the 24-week treatment period of the antecedent study 
ALK3831-A303 within the past 7 days are eligible to be enrolled in this study. 
Subjects enrolled in the study will be started on the same olanzapine dose that they had maintained at 
the end of ALK3831-A303. Subjects taking 20 mg olanzapine (either as OLZ 20 or ALKS 3831 20/10 
[20 mg olanzapine/10 mg samidorphan]) will start on ALKS 3831 20/10 in this study and subjects 
taking 10 mg olanzapine (either as OLZ 10 or ALKS 3831 10/10 [10 mg olanzapine/10 mg 
samidorphan) will start on ALKS 3831 10/10 in this study. An intermediate dose, ALKS 3831 15/10 
(15 mg olanzapine/10 mg samidorphan), will also be available, and subjects may be titrated to this dose 
any time after the start of the study at the investigator’s discretion. Dosing is flexible throughout the 
study; however, frequent adjustments are discouraged. Dose adjustments can only be performed on-site 
at the study center. Subjects requiring dose adjustments between scheduled visits should arrange an 
unscheduled visit for the following procedures: study drug return, adherence review, adverse event 
monitoring, and study drug dispensation.  
At eligible sites opting to participate in an additional substudy, subjects may be interviewed regarding 
their burden of disease and their treatment experiences; some of their caregivers also will be 
interviewed regarding their experiences in caring for a subject in the study.  
Subjects completing 52 weeks of treatment with study drug will be eligible to continue in the open 
label, long-term safety study (ALK3831-A308) and will continue to receive ALKS 3831. Subjects not 
continuing in the ALK3831-A308 long term safety study will enter a 4-week safety follow-up period. 
Number of Subjects Planned: Approximately 540 subjects are planned to be enrolled in this study.  
Main Criteria for Inclusion: 
To enroll in this study, a subject must be willing and able to provide informed consent; the subject 
must sign the informed consent form before initiation of any study specific procedures. The subject 
must agree to use an acceptable method of contraception for the duration of the study, be willing and 
able to follow the study procedures as outlined in the protocol, and have the potential to benefit from 
the administration of ALKS 3831, in the opinion of the investigator. The subject must have completed 
the 24-week treatment period of the antecedent study ALK3831-A303 within 7 days.

Safety: 
Safety will be assessed on the basis of: 
• 
Adverse events (AEs) 
• 
Clinical laboratory parameters (chemistry, hematology, and urinalysis) 
• 
Vital signs (oral temperature, respiratory rate, orthostatic blood pressure and pulse) 
• 
Weight/Body Mass Index (BMI) and Waist circumference 
• 
Electrocardiogram parameters (Uncorrected QT, QTcF, QTcB, PR, RR, and QRS 
intervals) 
• 
Columbia Suicide Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS) 
• 
Abnormal Involuntary Movement Scale (AIMS) 
• 
Barnes Akathisia Rating Scale (BARS) 
• 
Simpson-Angus Scale (SAS) 
Efficacy: 
Efficacy assessments used to measure durability of treatment effect include: 
• 
Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS) 
• 
Clinical Global Impression – Severity (CGI-S) 
Other: 
The following assessments will be used to obtain information regarding subject experience throughout 
the study: 
• 
Impact of Weight on Quality of Life –Lite Questionnaire (IWQOL-Lite) 
•

INTRODUCTION 
5.1. 
Background 
Schizophrenia is a chronic, severe disease with debilitating psychotic symptoms, physical and 
psychiatric comorbidities and increased mortality. Despite the availability of a range of 
FDA-approved medicines, the disease is still inadequately treated and associated with enormous 
human and economic cost. Life expectancy is reduced by 19 years in men and 16 years in 
women with schizophrenia compared to the general population (Harris and Barraclough 1998; 
Lambert et al, 2010; Tiihonen et al, 2009). The decreased life expectancy is due to a combination 
of direct effects of the disease, eg increased rates of suicide and violence (Hodgins 2008; Kuo et 
al, 2005), as well as indirect causes including increased incidence of obesity and cardiovascular 
disease (Nasrallah et al, 2006; Saha et al, 2007). 
The goal of treatment in schizophrenia is to achieve the maximal reduction in positive and 
negative symptoms and increase functionality. Unfortunately, even with regular administration 
of currently available antipsychotic medications at full therapeutic dose levels, the overwhelming 
majority of patients continue to exhibit residual active symptomatology. For physicians and 
patients, in many cases the current treatment paradigm involves an efficacy/tolerability trade-off, 
where use of the most efficacious agents is avoided or delayed in order to avoid known safety 
issues. As such, there is a need for more efficacious therapies with better tolerability. 
Olanzapine is regarded as one of the most effective antipsychotic agents with well-recognized 
efficacy and decreased incidence of extrapyramidal symptoms. However, its efficacy is 
compromised by safety and tolerability limitations that affect compliance and retention of 
patients on olanzapine therapy (Lieberman et al, 2005). In particular, results of the Clinical 
Antipsychotic Trials of Intervention Effectiveness (CATIE), identify olanzapine as an effective 
atypical antipsychotic associated with the highest weight gain (9.4 kg over a treatment period up 
to 18 months and ≥7% body weight in 30% of subjects) and a comparatively higher 
discontinuation rate relative to other antipsychotic agents due to weight gain and metabolic 
effects. As a result of these limitations surrounding safety, tolerability, adherence and retention, 
the risk of olanzapine therapy can outweigh the benefit and patients are often switched to 
alternative antipsychotic agents even if they are less effective. 
ALKS 3831 is a fixed-dose combination product of olanzapine and samidorphan (an opioid 
modulator, see Section 5.2.1 for more information) under investigation for the treatment of 
schizophrenia. Phase 1 and Phase 2 studies demonstrated that coadministration of samidorphan 
with olanzapine attenuates the weight gain experienced with olanzapine alone. ALKS 3831 may 
have the further benefit of controlling substance abuse in patients with schizophrenia. Comorbid 
substance use disorder is a well-recognized obstacle to patient care. An estimated 1 out of 
every 3 patients with schizophrenia (33.7%) meet or have met criteria for alcohol use disorder 
(Regier et al, 1990). Patients with both schizophrenia and alcohol use disorder represent a 
common variant within the schizophrenia spectrum that is difficult to treat and is associated with 
an extremely poor prognosis (Dixon 1999; Koekkoek et al, 2006). In clinical studies, 
samidorphan has been shown to block both the subjective and physiological effects of the opioid 
agonist remifentanil (ALK33-004) and it is correlated with reduced drinking behavior in adults

with alcohol dependence (ALK33-005). ALK3831-401 is an ongoing clinical study designed to 
evaluate the effect of ALKS 3831 on drinking behavior in adult subjects with schizophrenia and 
alcohol use disorder. 
In summary, ALKS 3831 is being explored as a therapeutic agent for the treatment of 
schizophrenia designed to combine the antipsychotic efficacy of olanzapine with a reduced risk 
of weight gain and associated metabolic deficits. Development of ALKS 3831 as a fixed-dose 
combination of olanzapine and samidorphan has the potential to improve upon the benefit/risk 
profile of olanzapine alone and address a significant clinical need for patients that are currently 
forced to choose between treatment efficacy and safety. 
5.2. Study Drugs 
In this study, a fixed-dose combination of olanzapine and samidorphan will be administered in a 
single bilayer tablet. The following sections provide an overview of samidorphan and 
olanzapine. Detailed information about the study drugs can be found in the current ALKS 3831 
Investigator’s Brochure (IB). 
5.2.1. 
Samidorphan 
Samidorphan (also referred to as ALKS 33 or RDC-0313) is a new molecular entity in clinical 
development by Alkermes that functions as an antagonist at μ-opioid receptors and as a low 
intrinsic activity agonist at κ- and δ-opioid receptors. It is currently being investigated in 
combination with buprenorphine for the treatment of major depressive disorder (ALKS 5461) 
and in combination with olanzapine for the treatment of schizophrenia. Based on its chemical 
structure, samidorphan is considered a Schedule II controlled substance according to the US 
Drug Enforcement Agency and will require proper handling (see Section 10). At least ten clinical 
studies of samidorphan have been conducted to date, 8 of which included subjects that received 
samidorphan alone (not in combination with another product). Commonly reported adverse 
events (AEs) observed across all studies included nausea, fatigue, and somnolence. Overall, no 
trends or clinically meaningful changes have been observed in clinical laboratory analytes, vital 
sign parameters, or electrocardiogram (ECG) data. 
5.2.2. 
Olanzapine 
Olanzapine has been available in the US since 1996 (Zyprexa®) and was originally approved for 
the treatment of schizophrenia. It has since been approved for other indications including the 
treatment of schizophrenia in adolescents and bipolar disorder. The safety and tolerability profile 
of olanzapine is well documented, and adverse event labeling is supported by an extensive safety 
database that includes over 8,500 adult patients (Eli Lilly and Company 2017) . Commonly 
reported AEs consistent across all or most dosage forms in short-term, placebo controlled trials 
include somnolence, constipation, dry mouth, accidental injury, weight gain, postural 
hypotension, dizziness, asthenia, fever and abnormal gait. 
5.3. Study Rationale 
This is a Phase 3 open-label extension of study ALK3831-A303 to evaluate the long-term safety 
and tolerability of ALKS 3831 in adults with schizophrenia. Safety and tolerability data from the 
completed 24-week study (ALK3831-302) found ALKS 3831 to have a safety and tolerability

profile similar to olanzapine. Results from this study and from a parallel safety study 
(ALK3831-A306) will extend these findings and evaluate the safety and tolerability of 
ALKS 3831 over a 52-week period. 
5.4. 
Dose Rationale 
The selected doses of ALKS 3831 (20/10 [20 mg olanzapine/10 mg samidorphan], 15/10 [15 mg 
olanzapine/10 mg samidorphan] 10/10 [10 mg olanzapine/10 mg samidorphan]) are within the 
approved olanzapine therapeutic dose range for the treatment of schizophrenia (Eli Lilly and 
Company 2017). These doses span the intended commercial maintenance dose range of 
ALKS 3831, 10–20 mg. 
The 10 mg samidorphan dose was identified as the minimally effective dose based on the robust 
efficacy with optimal safety profile observed in ALK3831-302 at this dose. A fixed dose of 
samidorphan was selected due to the fact that data from this study demonstrated no correlation 
between the ratio of samidorphan/olanzapine dose and percent change from baseline in body 
weight, indicating that even with higher olanzapine doses, a fixed dose of samidorphan is 
sufficient to achieve maximal effect on reducing olanzapine-induced weight gain.

7.1. 
Subject Inclusion Criteria 
Each subject must meet all of the following inclusion criteria to be qualified to participate in this 
study. 
1. Subject is willing and able to provide informed consent; subject has signed the informed 
consent form before initiation of any study specific procedures 
2. Subject agrees to use an acceptable method of contraception for the duration of the study 
(please refer to Section 8.4.1 for additional details regarding contraception) 
3. Subject is willing and able to follow the study procedures as outlined in the protocol 
4. Subject has the potential to benefit from the administration of ALKS 3831, in the opinion 
of the investigator 
5. Subject has completed the 24-week treatment period in the antecedent study 
ALK3831-A303 within 7 days 
7.2. 
Subject Exclusion Criteria 
Each subject must not meet any of the following criteria to be qualified to participate in this 
study. 
1. Subject has any finding that in the view of the investigator or medical monitor would 
compromise the safety of the subject or affect their ability to fulfill the protocol visit 
schedule or visit requirement 
2. Subject is currently taking medications that are contraindicated with olanzapine use or 
exhibit drug-interaction potential with olanzapine. Such medications will be defined and 
prohibited at the discretion of the PI 
3. Subject has a positive test for drugs of abuse at study entry 
4. Subject is pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding during the study 
5. Subject is employed by Alkermes, [CRO], or study site (permanent, temporary contract 
worker, or designee responsible for the conduct of the study) or is immediate family* of 
an Alkermes, [CRO], or study site employee (* Immediate family is defined as a spouse, 
parent, sibling or child, whether biological or legally adopted) 
7.3. 
Subject Withdrawal 
A subject may be discontinued from the study at any time if the subject, investigator, or the 
sponsor determines that it is not in the best interest of the subject to continue participation. If a 
subject has an absolute neutrophil count (ANC) < 1.0 × 103 per µL or glycosylated hemoglobin 
(HbA1c) ≥ 6.5% at any time during this extension study, the subject will be discontinued from 
the study. Other reasons for discontinuation include the following: 


 
 
Alkermes, Inc. 
Protocol ALK3831-A304 v 4.0 (Amendment 3.0) 
CONFIDENTIAL 
Page 17 of 97 
• Adverse Event (AE) 
• Lack of Efficacy 
• Lost to follow-up 
• Withdrawal by subject 
• Protocol Deviation (non-compliance with study drug or study procedures) 
• Pregnancy 
• Study terminated by sponsor 
• Other 
If a subject withdraws from the study for any reason, he or she will be asked to return to the 
clinic for an early termination (ET) visit. The ET visit should be scheduled as close as possible to 
the subject’s last dose and will mimic the assessments scheduled to be conducted at the end of 
treatment (EOT) visit (Visit 27, Table 3). Following the ET visit, subjects who discontinue study 
drug but are willing to come in for further assessments will be asked to complete 2 safety follow-
up visits 2 and 4 weeks after the ET visit (same assessments as Visits 28 and 29 in Table 3). 
They will then be asked to return to the study center for monthly visits according to the schedule 
outlined in Table 3 for follow-up weight assessments, adverse events, and documentation of any 
new antipsychotic medications the subject is taking. 
Following ET, any ongoing AEs will be followed until resolution, or until deemed stable by the 
investigator, or until the subject is deemed by the investigator to be lost to follow-up. If, in the 
opinion of the investigator, it is necessary to monitor a subject beyond the safety follow-up visit, 
the follow-up period may be extended as necessary. In such instances, the sponsor and the 
investigator will agree to an acceptable follow- up schedule. 
In the event that a subject chooses to withdraw from the study, the investigator should make a 
reasonable effort to ascertain the reason(s) for withdrawal, while fully respecting the subject’s 
rights. If the subject fails or refuses to return to the study center, an attempt must be made to 
contact the subject by telephone in order to assess as many safety and efficacy parameters as 
possible. All data collected over the telephone must be documented and kept in the subject’s 
record. 
The investigator must maintain a record of all subjects who fail to complete the study. The 
reason for study discontinuation will be documented and entered on the appropriate electronic 
case report form (eCRF). If a subject is lost to follow-up, a reasonable attempt to contact the 
subject must be made and documented. 
7.4. 
Replacement of Subjects 
Subjects prematurely discontinued from the study will not be replaced.

STUDY DESIGN 
8.1. 
Overall Study Design and Plan 
Subjects that have completed the 24-week treatment period of the antecedent study  
ALK3831-A303 within the past 7 days are eligible to be enrolled in the study. 
Subjects enrolled in the study will be started on the same olanzapine dose that they had 
maintained at the end of ALK3831-A303. Subjects taking 20 mg olanzapine (either as OLZ 20 or 
ALKS 3831 20/10 [20 mg olanzapine/10 mg samidorphan]) will start on ALKS 3831 20/10 in 
this study and subjects taking 10 mg olanzapine (either as OLZ 10 or ALKS 3831 10/10 [10 mg 
olanzapine/10 mg samidorphan]) will start on ALKS 3831 10/10 in this study. An intermediate 
dose, ALKS 3831 15/10 (15 mg olanzapine/10 mg samidorphan), will also be available, and 
subjects may be titrated to this dose any time after the start of the study at the investigator’s 
discretion. Dosing is flexible throughout the study; however, frequent adjustments are 
discouraged. Dose adjustments can only be performed on-site at the study center. Subjects 
requiring dose adjustments between scheduled visits should arrange an unscheduled visit for the 
following procedures: study drug return, adherence review, AE monitoring and study drug 
dispensation. 
Safety assessments will include AE monitoring, clinical laboratory testing, vital signs, weight/ 
BMI and waist circumference assessments, 12-lead electrocardiograms (ECGs), movement 
disorder assessments including the Abnormal Involuntary Movement Scale (AIMS), Barnes 
Akathisia Rating Scale (BARS), and Simpson Angus Scale (SAS), and the Columbia-Suicide 
Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS). 
Efficacy assessments to evaluate the durability of treatment effect will include Positive and 
Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS) and Clinical Global Impressions- Severity (CGI-S). 
Additional assessments include Impact of Weight on Quality of Life – Lite Questionnaire 
(IWQOL-Lite), Cigarette Use, and EuroQol five dimensions questionnaire (EQ-5D). 
Subjects completing 52 weeks of treatment with study drug will be eligible to continue in the 
open-label, long-term safety study (ALK3831-A308) and will continue to receive ALKS 3831. 
Subjects not continuing in the ALK3831-A308 long-term safety study will enter a 4-week safety 
follow-up period.  
Sites with subjects completing or prematurely discontinuing treatment in this study may 
participate in an additional substudy to explore treatment experiences of subjects and their 
caregivers (Appendix J). At participating sites, subjects who agree to be interviewed will be 
asked to provide feedback regarding their burden of disease and their treatment experiences; 
some of their caregivers also will be interviewed regarding their experience in caring for a 
subject in the study.  
The overall schedule of visits and assessments is provided in Table 3. 
A schematic of the study design is provided in Figure 1.

Schedule of Visits and Assessments 
The schedule of visits and assessments is shown in Table 3. 
A visit window of ±2 days is allowed throughout the treatment period and during the follow-up 
period. For a missed visit, the site must contact the subject to reschedule. 
Premature discontinuation procedures are provided in Section 7.3. Subjects who discontinue 
study drug but are willing to come in for further assessments will be asked to complete the ET 
visit (same assessments as Visit 27, Table 3) followed by 2 safety follow-up visits 2 and 4 weeks 
after the ET visit (same assessments as Visits 28 and 29 in Table 3). They will then be asked to 
return to the study center for monthly visits according to the schedule outlined in Table 3, to 
collect the following information: weight assessments, any new antipsychotic medications the 
subject is taking, and adverse events.

Study Procedures Descriptions 
Details of the study procedures are described below. The overall schedule of assessments is 
provided in Table 3. Information collected with the following assessments will be carried 
forward from the antecedent study, ALK3831-A303, for screening/baseline: demographics and 
medical history, vital signs, physical exam, height, body weight and waist circumference, 
12-lead ECG, CGI-S, PANSS, abnormal movement scales, IWQOL, EQ-5D, and cigarette use. 
8.3.1. 
Informed Consent 
The nature of the study and its risks and benefits will be explained to the subject by the principal 
investigator or designated study personnel as outlined in Section 17.3. 
Prior to the administration of any study-specific procedures, authorized study personnel will 
obtain written informed consent from each potential subject. 
8.3.2. 
Eligibility Review 
An eligibility review will be conducted by the investigator at the visits specified in Table 3 using 
the subject inclusion criteria in Section 7.1 and exclusion criteria in Section 7.2. 
8.3.3. 
Demographics and Medical History 
Subjects’ demographic data and medical history will be carried over from the antecedent study, 
ALK3831-A303. 
8.3.4. 
Concomitant Medication Review 
At the time points specified in Table 3 subjects will be asked about the medications they have 
taken since their last visit, including prescription and nonprescription medications, vitamins, and 
supplements. 
The investigator will record the following data on all medications used by the subject: name, 
dose, regimen, route of administration, start and stop dates, and the indication for use. 
8.3.5. 
Vital Signs 
Vital signs (ie, blood pressure, heart rate, respiratory rate, and oral body temperature) will be 
assessed at the time points specified in Table 3. An effort will be made to consistently use the 
same arm (preferably the subject’s dominant arm) to measure blood pressure and heart rate 
throughout the study. The blood pressure cuff will be calibrated per study site standard operating 
procedures (SOP). Automated measurement is preferred, but if performed manually, heart rate 
will be measured in the brachial artery for at least 30 seconds. Orthostatic blood pressure and 
heart rate will be collected in the following manner: 
• Allow subject to be in a supine position for at least 5 minutes 
• Measure blood pressure and heart rate 
• Have subject stand for 2 minutes 
• Measure blood pressure and heart rate 
Page 23 of 97


 
 
Alkermes, Inc. 
Protocol ALK3831-A304 v 4.0 (Amendment 3.0) 
CONFIDENTIAL 
Vital signs may be collected at any time during a scheduled visit, unless otherwise noted. 
8.3.6. 
Physical Examination 
A physical examination will be performed at the timepoints specified in Table 3. 
8.3.7. 
Body Weight and Waist Circumference 
Body weight and waist circumference will be measured at all the timepoints specified in Table 3. 
For weight measurements, subjects should be asked to void immediately prior to measurement 
and should be dressed in a hospital gown with consistent under-attire for each measurement. 
Subjects should remove all personal items such as watches and jewelry and they should be 
weighed on the same scale for each measurement under the same conditions. 
Both weight and waist circumference will be measured three consecutive times at each 
assessment and all measurements will be recorded in the eCRF. 
8.3.8. 
12-Lead Electrocardiogram 
A 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) will be conducted at the timepoints specified in Table 3. All 
scheduled ECGs must be performed after the subject has rested quietly for at least 5 minutes in 
the supine position. 
A qualified clinician will conduct ECGs and assess ECG results using equipment that has been 
calibrated according to the site’s standard operating procedures. The following ECG parameters 
will be collected: pulse, RR, PR, QRS, QT, QT interval corrected using the Fridericia formula 
(QTcF), and QT interval corrected using the Bazett formula (QTcB). 
ECGs will also be evaluated by a central reader. 
8.3.9. 
Structured Interviews and Questionnaires 
Brief descriptions of each of the interviews and questionnaires to be distributed are available 
below. All interviews and questionnaires will be administered by trained and qualified study 
personnel. 
For assessments performed at multiple visits, every effort should be made to pair the same 
clinician/rater with the same subject across visits. 
Table 3 provides information on the time points at which each assessment should be 
administered. For all visits where assessments overlap, the PANSS should be administered first 
before any other psychiatric assessment. 
8.3.9.1. 
Antipsychotic Efficacy Assessments 
8.3.9.1.1. Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale 
The PI or designee will complete the PANSS (Appendix B) (Kay et al, 1987) according to the 
schedule in Table 3. The Structured Clinical Interview for the PANSS (SCI-PANSS) will be 
used to administer the PANSS.

8.3.9.1.2. Clinical Global Impression-Severity 
The PI or designee will complete the CGI-Severity (CGI-S, Appendix C) scale at the timepoints 
specified in Table 3. The CGI-S measures mental illness severity. Clinicians are asked to rate 
subjects based on their prior experience working with individuals in a similar patient population 
(Guy 1976). 
8.3.9.2. 
Safety Assessments 
8.3.9.2.1. Abnormal Movement Rating Scales 
The PI or designee will complete the following abnormal movement rating scales: The Abnormal 
Involuntary Movement Scale (AIMS, Appendix D) (Guy 1976), the Barnes Akathisia Rating 
Scale (BARS, Appendix E) (Barnes 1989), and the Simpson-Angus Scale (SAS, Appendix F) 
(Simpson and Angus 1970) at the timepoints specified in Table 3. 
After administration of the first dose of study drug, if a subject complains of extrapyramidal 
symptoms on a day when abnormal movement scale assessments are not scheduled, an 
unscheduled abnormal movement assessment should be performed. 
8.3.9.2.2. Columbia-Suicide Severity Rating Scale 
The PI or designee will administer the C-SSRS (Appendix G) according to the schedule in 
Table 3. The “Since Last Visit” version is to be completed at all scheduled time points. The 
C-SSRS should be administered by a qualified clinician trained in assessing and managing 
suicidal ideation and behavior (Posner et al, 2011). 
8.3.9.3. 
Other Assessments 
8.3.9.3.1. Cigarette Use 
Data on cigarette use will be collected using the question: “How many packs of cigarettes did 
you smoke over the past 7 days?” at the timepoints specified in Table 3. 
8.3.9.3.2. Impact of Weight on Quality of Life – Lite 
Subjects will complete the IWQOL-Lite questionnaire (Appendix H) at the timepoints specified 
in Table 3. 
8.3.9.3.3. EuroQol Five Dimensions Questionnaire 
Subjects will complete the EQ-5D (Appendix I) at the timepoints specified in Table 3. This scale 
provides an indication of health status based on self-rating in the following five categories: 
mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort, and anxiety/depression. Additionally, it asks 
subjects to rank their health status on a visual analogue scale (VAS) from “worst imaginable 
health state” to “best imaginable health state.” 
8.3.9.3.4. Patient Voice Substudy (Only at Participating Study Sites) 
Substudy (Appendix J): At a subset of study sites, subject concept elicitation interviews to 
explore patient experience will be conducted with subjects who have completed or discontinued

early from the main protocol and who agree to participate. Caregivers will also be interviewed to 
gain their perspectives. 
8.3.10. 
Laboratory Assessments 
8.3.10.1. Drug Testing 
A drug screen for opiates (including codeine, hydrocodone, hydromorphone, methadone, 
morphine, oxycodone, and oxymorphone) and drugs of abuse (including amphetamine/ 
methamphetamine, phencyclidine [PCP], and cocaine) will be performed at the timepoints 
specified in Table 3. Urine drug screens may be repeated based on investigator judgment. The 
test may also be repeated at any time during the study, should the investigator feel it is 
warranted. Subjects are not eligible for participation if the results are positive at screening. If a 
subject is determined to be using any of these substances during the treatment period, the 
investigator should contact the medical monitor to discuss the course of action. 
8.3.10.2. Hematology, Biochemistry, and Urinalysis 
Fasting blood and urine samples will be collected at the timepoints specified in Table 3 for 
specific hematology, biochemistry, and urinalysis assessments listed in Table 4. Subjects will be 
instructed not to eat or drink anything (except water) for 8 hours before each visit where blood 
samples for biochemistry and hematology assessments will be collected. Samples will be 
collected in accordance with the site’s standard procedures and analyzed by a central laboratory. 
Laboratory assessments may be repeated at the investigator’s discretion.

Drug Dispensation and Reconciliation 
Section 9 provides information related to drug dispensing procedures. Study drug will be 
dispensed at the timepoints specified in Table 3. The study drug use and storage information will 
be explained to/reviewed with the subject. 
Whether or not samidorphan is classified as a controlled substance varies from country to 
country; some countries have classified samidorphan as a controlled substance, while others have 
not. Sites will be given storage, handling, and reconciliation instructions applicable to their 
country to ensure compliance with local regulations for controlled substances. 
8.3.12. 
Emergency Treatment Card 
An emergency treatment card will be distributed to each subject and collected from each subject 
at the timepoints indicated in Table 3. The card will indicate that the subject is receiving an 
opioid antagonist and olanzapine and will include the PI’s contact information, a suggested pain 
management plan and information regarding opiate blockade. Subjects will be instructed to keep 
the card with them at all times. Study personnel will confirm that subjects have the card in their 
possession at each study visit as indicated in Table 3. 
8.3.13. 
Adverse Event Monitoring 
AEs will be monitored continuously from the time a subject signs the informed consent 
document until the completion of the final study visit (see Table 3). AEs and serious adverse 
events (SAEs) are defined in Section 13.1 and 13.2, respectively. Section 13.4 provides guidance 
on the monitoring and recording requirements for AEs. Section 13.5 provides guidance on the 
reporting requirements for SAEs. 
8.4. 
Study Requirements and Restrictions 
8.4.1. 
Contraception and Pregnancy 
All male and female subjects must agree to use an acceptable method of contraception for the 
duration of the study unless they are surgically sterile or post-menopausal (see below). The 
following are considered acceptable methods of contraception: 
1. Double-barrier protection (eg, a condom with spermicide or a diaphragm with 
spermicide) 
2. Intrauterine device (IUD) 
3. Oral contraceptive pills and other hormonal methods (eg, a vaginal ring, contraceptive 
patch, contraceptive implant) 
Subjects who are abstinent are eligible, provided they agree to use an acceptable contraceptive 
method should they become sexually active. 
Subjects who are surgically sterile are exempt from the requirement to use contraception. 
Women who have undergone a hysterectomy, bilateral tubal ligation, or bilateral salpingo-
oophorectomy are considered surgically sterile. Men who have undergone a vasectomy are 
considered surgically sterile. Partner vasectomy is not considered an approved acceptable 
method of contraception for a female subject.

Alkermes, Inc. 
Protocol ALK3831-A304 v 4.0 (Amendment 3.0) 
CONFIDENTIAL 
Women who are postmenopausal are also exempt from the requirement to use contraception. For 
the purpose of this study, postmenopausal is defined as the permanent cessation of menstruation 
for at least 12 months prior to screening in women who are 45 years of age or older. 
If a subject becomes pregnant while participating in the study, she will be discontinued from 
study drug immediately. Pregnancies in female subjects and female partners of male subjects 
should be handled in the same manner. The investigator must fill out a Pregnancy Report Form 
and submit the information to the sponsor within 24 hours of awareness of the pregnancy, 
irrespective of whether an adverse event has occurred. The early termination and safety follow-
up visits will be scheduled. The investigator will follow the pregnancy until completion or until 
pregnancy termination and notify the outcome to the sponsor. If the outcome of the pregnancy 
meets the criteria for immediate classification as an SAE the investigator should follow the 
procedure of reporting SAEs (see Section 13.5). Additional follow-up may be required. 
8.4.2. 
Prohibited Medications 
The prohibited medications include the following: 
• Monoamine oxidase inhibitors (eg, phenelzine, tranylcypromine, selegiline, or 
moclobemide) 
• Long-acting formulations of any antipsychotic agent 
• Use of antipsychotic sleep aids (eg, Seroquel) is prohibited. However, use of 
benzodiazepines to treat some symptoms is permissible 
• In general, the use of psychotropic medications other than study drug is prohibited 
with the exception of the following (these medications should only be administered 
after all assessments have been completed for that visit): 
− Beta-blockers (eg, propranolol or pinodolol), antihistamines, and anticholinergics 
may be used for treatment-emergent akathisia 
− Anticholinergics may be used for extrapyramidal symptoms 
• Chantix® (varenicline) is not permitted. However, nicotine replacement therapy 
including nicotine replacement patch and oral nicotine gum is permitted 
• All prescription or over-the-counter (OTC) agents taken for the purpose of weight 
reduction 
• Systemic steroids administered by oral, intravenous, or intramuscular route 
• Topiramate (Topamax®) and combination products containing topiramate; Calcitonin 
(eg, Miacalcin®) 
• Diabetes treatments and hypoglycemic agents including Metformin and Insulin 
Medications that are contraindicated with olanzapine use or exhibit drug-interaction potential 
with olanzapine are prohibited (see ALKS 3831 Investigator Brochure). 
Use of moderate to strong inducers or inhibitors of cytochrome P450 (CYP) 3A4 (prescription 
medications, OTC medications, or dietary supplements) was prohibited in the antecedent study 
(ALK3831-A303) and will be prohibited in this study from Visit 1 through follow-up. Refer to

Appendix A for a list of CYP3A4 inhibitors and inducers (Food and Drug Administration 2016; 
University of Washington: School of Pharmacy 2017a; University of Washington: School of 
Pharmacy 2017b). 
The CRO medical monitor should be consulted for any questions about use of any psychotropic 
medications during a subject’s participation in this study. 
Use of opioid antagonists, including naltrexone (any formulations) and naloxone throughout the 
study period is prohibited. Note: during the study period, opioid agonists should be avoided as 
they may be rendered ineffective by samidorphan. 
8.4.3. 
Permitted Therapy 
Permissible medications to treat extrapyramidal symptoms may include benzodiazepines, 
antihistamines, and anticholinergics. Benzodiazepines should be utilized for treatment-
emergent akathisia. While insomnia may be treated with a variety of agents, short half-life 
benzodiazepines should be utilized due to the potential for lingering effects on daytime 
functioning and study assessments (eg, triazolam). Non-benzodiazepine medication may be used 
to treat insomnia (eg, zolpidem, eszopiclone). Treatment of agitation and/or anxiety with 
benzodiazepines is permissible. 
8.4.4. 
Pain Management 
Because ALKS 3831 contains samidorphan, a μ-opioid antagonist, patients may experience 
reduced or ineffective analgesia when taking an opioid analgesic agent concurrently with 
ALKS 3831, including several days after last dosing of ALKS 3831. 
In the event of an emergency, pain management of the subject should include the following: 
• Regional analgesia or use of non-opioid analgesics 
• If opiate anesthesia or analgesia is required, the subject should be continuously 
monitored, in an anesthesia care setting, by persons not involved in the conduct of the 
surgical or diagnostic procedure. The opioid therapy must be provided by individuals 
specifically trained in the use of anesthetic drugs and the management of the 
respiratory effects of potent opioids, specifically the establishment and the 
maintenance of a patent airway and assisted ventilation. 
• Close monitoring by appropriately trained personnel in a setting equipped and staffed 
for cardiopulmonary resuscitation 
For subjects requiring emergency opioid analgesics prior to dosing, the study drug should not be 
administered. If opioid analgesics are required after the study drug has been dosed, it may take 
several days for opiate sensitivity to be restored, since samidorphan functions as a μ-opioid 
antagonist and could interfere with opioid-mediated pain management.

TREATMENT OF SUBJECTS 
9.1. 
Study Drug Dose and Administration 
Study drugs include 
• ALKS 3831 10/10 (10 mg olanzapine/10 mg samidorphan) 
• ALKS 3831 15/10 (15 mg olanzapine/10 mg samidorphan) 
• ALKS 3831 20/10 (20 mg olanzapine/10 mg samidorphan) 
ALKS 3831 will be supplied as a coated bilayer tablet for oral administration. 
At Visit 1 and all subsequent visits until EOT, subjects will be given blister cards containing 
study drug to take at home. Subjects will be instructed to take one tablet by mouth each day, 
preferably at bedtime. Dosing may be switched to another time at the investigator’s discretion if 
there are tolerability problems; however, frequent switching is discouraged. 
Subjects will be instructed to keep all unused tablets in their blister card and to return unused 
tablets to the study site at their next visit. If dosing is to occur at that visit, the dose should be 
taken from the subject’s next blister card, not from the card they are returning. 
If a dose is missed or forgotten, subjects will be instructed to resume regular dosing the 
following night. Subjects will be instructed not to take a double dose to try to “make up” for the 
missed dose. 
9.2. 
Treatment Adherence 
Subjects will undergo a study drug adherence review at the time points indicated in Table 3. 
Subjects will be instructed to keep all unused tablets in their original containers and to return the 
original containers with any unused study drug at each visit following dispensation. Study drug 
accountability will be documented as the number of tablets dispensed, dosed, lost/missing, or 
remaining. If applicable, the site will discuss non-adherence with the subject.

STUDY DRUG MATERIALS AND MANAGEMENT 
10.1. 
Study Drug 
The ALKS 3831 drug product will be supplied as a coated bilayer tablet in three fixed-dose 
combinations: 
• ALKS 3831 10/10 (10 mg olanzapine/10 mg samidorphan) 
• ALKS 3831 15/10 (15 mg olanzapine/10 mg samidorphan) 
• ALKS 3831 20/10 (20 mg olanzapine/10 mg samidorphan) 
Samidorphan is a Schedule II controlled substance. Thus, ALKS 3831 should be treated as a 
Schedule II controlled substance in the US and any other country in which it is controlled. 
10.2. 
Packaging and Labeling 
ALKS 3831 will be supplied in blister cards. Blister cards will be in biweekly configurations. 
Biweekly blister cards will contain 16 tablets, enough for 2 weeks of dosing plus sufficient 
overage for 2 additional once daily doses. 
10.3. 
Storage 
Product should be stored at not more than 25°C. 
Under the US Controlled Substances Act, samidorphan is considered a Schedule II substance 
because it is derived from opium alkaloids. Therefore, ALKS 3831 must be stored in accordance 
with restrictions related to Schedule II substances. The site will take adequate precautions, 
including storage of the investigational drug in a securely locked, substantially constructed 
cabinet, or other securely locked, substantially constructed enclosure, access to which is limited, 
to prevent theft or diversion of the substance. 
10.4. 
Accountability 
The investigator will be responsible for the oversight of recording the receipt and administration 
of study drug, and for insuring the supervision of the storage and allocation of these supplies. 
The investigator is required to maintain current drug dispensing and accountability logs 
throughout the study. The investigator may delegate accountability duties to an appropriate and 
qualified pharmacist or staff member who is under the supervision of the investigator. The 
investigator or designee must allow the Clinical Research Associate or equivalent to perform 
drug reconciliation during each study monitoring visit. All unused supplies will be checked 
against the study drug movement records before investigational drug is returned or destroyed. 
Refer to Section 8.3.11 for additional study drug reconciliation procedures.

ASSESSMENT OF SAFETY 
Safety will be assessed on the basis of: 
• Adverse events (AEs) 
• Clinical laboratory parameters (chemistry, hematology, and urinalysis) 
• Vital signs (oral temperature, respiratory rate, orthostatic blood pressure and pulse) 
• Weight/BMI and Waist Circumference 
• Electrocardiogram parameters (Uncorrected QT, QTcF, QTcB, PR, RR, and 
QRS intervals) 
• Columbia Suicide Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS) 
• Abnormal Involuntary Movement Scale (AIMS) 
• Barnes Akathisia Rating Scale (BARS) 
• Simpson-Angus Scale (SAS) 
13.1. 
Definition of Adverse Event 
An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a patient or clinical investigation subject 
administered a pharmaceutical product. The occurrence, which may or may not have a causal 
relationship with the investigational treatment, may include any clinical or laboratory change that 
does not commonly occur in that subject and is considered clinically significant. 
Illnesses present prior to the subject signing the informed consent form (ICF) are considered to 
be pre-existing conditions and are documented on the medical history eCRF. Pre-existing 
conditions that worsen during the study are entered on the AE eCRF. 
All out-of-range laboratory values will be deemed as clinically significant or not clinically 
significant by the investigator. Clinically significant values will be considered AEs and recorded 
as such on the eCRFs. 
Pregnancy is not considered an AE, although a subject will be withdrawn from the study if a 
pregnancy occurs. As described in Section 8.4.1, the pregnancy must be reported to Alkermes 
and additional follow-up may be required. 
13.2. 
Definition of Serious Adverse Event 
An SAE is any AE, occurring at any dose and regardless of causality that meets one or more of 
the following criteria: 
• Results in death 
• Is life-threatening. The subject is at immediate risk of death from the reaction as it 
occurs. This does not include reaction that, had it occurred in a more severe form, 
might have caused death. 
• Requires inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization. 
Page 37 of 97


 
 
Alkermes, Inc. 
Protocol ALK3831-A304 v 4.0 (Amendment 3.0) 
CONFIDENTIAL 
• Results in persistent or significant disability/incapacity (eg, a substantial disruption of 
a person’s ability to conduct normal life functions) 
• Is a congenital anomaly/birth defect 
Important medical events that may not result in death, be immediately life threatening, or require 
hospitalization may be considered to be SAEs when, based upon appropriate medical judgment, 
they may jeopardize the patient or subject and may require intervention to prevent one of the 
other outcomes listed above. 
Admission to a hospital or an inpatient unit for a nonmedical reason (ie, social stay admission) 
during the study in the absence of untoward medical occurrence will not be considered as an 
SAE, but will be captured as an AE. 
Hospitalization due to worsening of behavioral health related issues should be reported as 
an SAE. 
13.3. 
Relationship to Study Drug 
The assessment of study drug relationship to each AE will be reported on the appropriate source 
document (and SAE form, in the event of an SAE) by the investigator (or designated 
sub-investigator) according to his/her best clinical judgment. The criteria listed in Table 5 should 
be used to guide this assessment. Please note that not all criteria must be present to be indicative 
of a particular drug relationship. All study drugs are considered “test drugs” for the purposes of 
the definitions listed in the table.

Monitoring and Recording of Adverse Events 
AE data collection will begin after a subject signs the ICF and will continue until completion of 
the safety follow-up visit (Visit 29) or 28 days after the final dose of study drug. Any AE or SAE 
having an onset after the safety follow-up visit will not be collected or reported unless the 
investigator feels that the event may be related to the study drug. 
Subjects will be instructed by the investigator or designee to report the occurrence of any AE. 
All volunteered, elicited, and observed AEs are to be recorded on the AE eCRFs. 
The investigator will assess all AEs regarding any causal relationship to the study drug 
(see Section 13.3), the intensity (severity) of the event, action taken, and subject outcome. 
The following criteria should be used to guide the assessment of intensity (severity): 
• Mild: Causes awareness of sign or symptom, but is easily tolerated; does not interfere 
with usual activities 
• Moderate: Causes discomfort enough to interfere with usual activities 
• Severe: Is incapacitating; results in inability to work or perform usual activities 
All AEs will be followed until resolution, until deemed stable by the investigator, or until the 
subject is deemed by the investigator to be lost to follow-up. 
For clinical study safety reporting purposes, the most recent version of the Investigator’s 
Brochure will be used as the reference document to designate event expectedness. 
Withdrawal from the study as a result of an AE and any therapeutic measures that are taken shall 
be at the discretion of the investigator. If a subject withdraws from the study for any reason, any 
ongoing AEs will be followed until resolution, until deemed stable by the investigator, or until 
the subject is deemed by the investigator to be lost to follow-up. 
13.5. 
Reporting of Serious Adverse Events and Pregnancy 
All SAEs and pregnancies must be reported to Alkermes via 
 
 immediately, within 24 hours of discovery, by emailing or faxing the report to the 
following: 
Attention: Safety 
 Medical Monitor 
US Email: 
 
EU/Rest of World (ROW) Email: 
 
US Fax Number: 
 
EU/ROW Fax Number: 
 
The written report should be submitted on the SAE form provided for this purpose. The report 
must include the investigator’s opinion as to whether the event is study drug-related. If this 
relationship is determined to be possibly, probably, or definitely related to study drug, evidence 
to support this assessment must also be provided.

QUALITY CONTROL AND QUALITY ASSURANCE 
This study will be conducted under GCP and all applicable regulatory requirements. To ensure 
data accuracy, completeness and compliance, the study site should have processes in place for 
data review and quality control. Alkermes may also conduct a quality assurance audit.  Please 
see Section 15.2 for details regarding the audit process. 
16.1. 
Case Report Forms 
This study will use eCRFs. All eCRF data must be based on source documents or approved to be 
the original data (ie, data directly reported on the eCRF). All eCRFs will be completed by the 
clinic staff prior to review by the Alkermes monitor or designated representative. 
The Alkermes monitor or designated representative will review all source records on-site and 
compare them to the data collected on the eCRF. 
16.2. 
Confidentiality of Data 
By signing this protocol, the investigator affirms to Alkermes that he or she will maintain in 
confidence information furnished to him or her by Alkermes and will divulge such information

17. 
ETHICAL CONSIDERATIONS 
17.1. 
Ethics Review 
The clinical site’s IRB/IEC must meet all relevant regulatory requirements. The study protocol 
and ICF will be reviewed by the IRB/IEC prior to enrolling subjects into the study; written 
approval from the committee must be received by Alkermes before drug will be released to 
the investigator. The protocol must be re-approved by the IRB/IEC upon receipt of amendments 
and annually, as local regulatory requirements require. 
The investigator is responsible for submitting all protocol changes and SAE reports to the 
IRB/IEC according to local procedures. At a minimum, all SAEs requiring an investigational 
new drug safety report must be immediately reported. 
All relevant correspondence from the IRB/IEC will be forwarded by the respective study site to 
the sponsor in a timely fashion. 
17.2. 
Ethical Conduct of the Study 
This study will be conducted in accordance with the protocol, the ICH Guideline E6, and all 
applicable local regulatory requirements. GCP is an international ethical and scientific quality 
standard used for designing, conducting, recording, and reporting studies involving the 
participation of human subjects. Alkermes is committed to complying with this standard to 
provide assurance that the rights, safety, and well-being of study subjects will be protected, 
consistent with the principles having their origin in the Declaration of Helsinki. 
17.3. 
Written Informed Consent 
The investigator (or authorized designee) at each center will ensure that the subject is given full 
and adequate oral and written information about the nature, purpose, potential and possible risks 
and benefits of the study. Each prospective subject will receive an IRB-approved informed 
consent form (ICF) that summarizes the pertinent study information and will be given ample 
time to read the form and ask questions about the study. All information is to be provided in a 
language understandable to the subject and must not include any language that waives the 
subject’s legal rights. Prospective subjects must also be informed of their right to withdraw 
consent without prejudice at any time during the study. If the subject chooses to participate, 
he/she must sign the ICF before any study-specific procedures are conducted. 
All subjects will be informed of their rights to privacy and will be made aware that the study data 
will be submitted to Alkermes, the IRB, the contract research organization (CRO) if applicable, 
and to regulatory authorities for review and evaluation for the duration of the study and until the 
project has been approved for marketing, or is withdrawn from investigation. They will also be 
informed that the study monitor may inspect their medical records to verify the accuracy and 
completeness of the study records and results. 
Significant changes to the protocol or product safety information may require a revision of the 
ICF, which must be reviewed and approved by the IRB, and then signed by all applicable study 
participants.

DATA HANDLING AND RECORDKEEPING 
An overview of study data handling and recordkeeping procedures and restrictions is provided in 
the subsequent sections; please refer to the CSA for further details. 
18.1. 
Data Capture 
As stated in Section 16.1, this study will use eCRFs for capturing data. All entries, corrections, 
and alterations will be made by the investigator or other authorized study personnel. All data 
entries will be verified for accuracy and correctness by independent monitors. The electronic 
data capture system maintains a full audit trail. 
All electronic source data collected outside of the eCRF will be transferred directly to Alkermes 
for incorporation into the final datasets. A paper copy of all laboratory reports will remain with 
the source documents at the study site. All out of range laboratory values will be deemed as 
clinically significant or not clinically significant by the investigator. Clinically significant values 
will be considered AEs and recorded as such on the eCRFs. 
AEs will be coded using MedDRA. Concomitant medications will be categorized using the 
WHO-ATC classification system. 
18.2. 
Inspection of Records 
Alkermes or its representative will be allowed to conduct site visits to the investigational 
facilities for the purpose of monitoring any aspect of the study. The investigator agrees to allow 
the monitor to inspect the drug storage area, study drug stocks, drug accountability records, 
subject charts and source documents, and other records relative to study conduct. 
18.3. 
Retention of Records 
Retention and storage of all essential clinical study documents shall be governed by the terms 
and conditions of the site’s CSA and in accordance with ICH guidelines/local regulatory 
requirements as follows: 
Essential documents should be retained until at least 2 years after the last approval of a 
marketing application in an ICH region and until there are no pending or contemplated marketing 
applications in an ICH region or at least 2 years have elapsed since the formal discontinuation of 
clinical development of the investigational product. These documents should be retained for a 
longer period, however, if required by the applicable regulatory requirements or by the terms of 
the CSA. It is the responsibility of the sponsor to inform the investigator/institution as to when 
these documents no longer need to be retained. 
Subjects’ medical files should be retained in accordance with the applicable legislation and in 
accordance with the maximum period of time permitted by the hospital, institution, or private 
practice.

Scoring the Barnes Akathisia Rating Scale (BARS) 
The Barnes Akathisia Rating Scale is scored as follows:  
Objective Akathisia, Subjective Awareness of Restlessness and Subjective Distress Related to Restlessness are rated on a 
4-point scale from 0 – 3 and are summed yielding a total score ranging from 0 to 9.  
The Global Clinical Assessment of Akathisia uses a 5-point scale ranging from 0 – 4.

Disclaimer: 
This scale is intended for use by trained clinicians. The questions contained in the Columbia-Suicide Severity Rating Scale 
are suggested probes. Ultimately, the determination of the presence of suicidality depends on clinical judgment. 
Definitions of behavioral suicidal events in this scale are based on those used in The Columbia Suicide History 
Form, developed by John Mann, MD and Maria Oquendo, MD, Conte Center for the Neuroscience of Mental Disorders 
(CCNMD), New York State Psychiatric Institute, 1051 Riverside Drive, New York, NY, 10032. (Oquendo M. A.,

SUICIDAL BEHAVIOR 
(Check all that apply, so long as these are separate events; must ask about all types) 
Since Last 
Visit 
Actual Attempt:  
A potentially self-injurious act committed with at least some wish to die, as a result of act. Behavior was in part thought of as method to kill oneself. Intent 
does not have to be 100%.  If there is any intent/desire to die associated with the act, then it can be considered an actual suicide attempt. There does not 
have to be any injury or harm, just the potential for injury or harm. If person pulls trigger while gun is in mouth but gun is broken so no injury results, 
this is considered an attempt.   
Inferring Intent: Even if an individual denies intent/wish to die, it may be inferred clinically from the behavior or circumstances. For example, a highly 
lethal act that is clearly not an accident so no other intent but suicide can be inferred (e.g. gunshot to head, jumping from window of a high floor/story). 
Also, if someone denies intent to die, but they thought that what they did could be lethal, intent may be inferred.  
Have you made a suicide attempt? 
Have you done anything to harm yourself? 
 
Have you done anything dangerous where you could have died? 
What did you do? 
Did you______ as a way to end your life?  
Did you want to die (even a little) when you_____?  
Were you trying to end your life when you _____? 
Or did you think it was possible you could have died from_____? 
Or did you do it purely for other reasons / without ANY intention of killing yourself (like to relieve stress, feel better, get 
sympathy, or get something else to happen)?  (Self-Injurious Behavior without suicidal intent)

Interrupted Attempt:   
When the person is interrupted (by an outside circumstance) from starting the potentially self-injurious act (if not for that, actual attempt would have 
occurred). 
Overdose: Person has pills in hand but is stopped from ingesting.  Once they ingest any pills, this becomes an attempt rather than an interrupted attempt. 
Shooting: Person has gun pointed toward self, gun is taken away by someone else, or is somehow prevented from pulling trigger. Once they pull the trigger, 
even if the gun fails to fire, it is an attempt. Jumping: Person is poised to jump, is grabbed and taken down from ledge. Hanging: Person has noose around 
neck but has not yet started to hang - is stopped from doing so.

CONFIDENTIAL 
APPENDIX J. SUBSTUDY TO PROTOCOL ALK3831-A304 
(PARTICIPATING SITES ONLY)  
Introduction and Rationale for the Substudy 
In addition to standard efficacy and safety endpoints collected in a clinical trial of a new 
therapeutic treatment, patient and caregiver perspectives are useful in further describing the 
overall patient experience. Patients’ and caregivers’ experiences with the disease or with specific 
therapies can provide information on important disease concepts, including impacts on quality of 
life and preferences with regard to treatment options. Such data are valuable to inform clinical 
development of new therapies.  
Patient and caregiver experience data may be collected using quantitative, qualitative, or mixed 
methodology. An important advantage of qualitative methodology is its ability to discover 
information not covered in standard structured questionnaires or rating scales.  
To obtain patient experience data from subjects treated with ALKS 3831, this substudy will use 
in-depth, qualitative interviews to collect subjects’ and caregivers’ feedback on their experiences 
in study ALK3831-A304. The interviews will follow semi-structured interview guides to capture 
spontaneous, as well as probed, descriptions of treatment experience. This exploratory qualitative 
approach is intended both to assess a priori concepts of interest and to explore the disease burden 
and treatment experiences of patients and caregivers with schizophrenia prior to and during 
participation in study ALK3831-A304. 
Substudy Objectives 
The main objectives of this substudy are to explore the burden of living with schizophrenia and 
the treatment experiences of subjects who have completed or discontinued prematurely from 
study ALK3831-A304. Additionally, experiences of subjects’ caregivers will be examined. 
Interviews will focus on concepts relevant to the subject’s and caregiver’s experience with the 
burden of disease, impacts of treatment with ALKS 3831 on daily life, and impacts of 
participation in the ALK3831-A304 Study. The interviews will also probe on specific treatment 
attributes liked/disliked by subjects, the degree of patient satisfaction/dissatisfaction with the 
ALKS 3831 treatment and study, and subjects’ and caregivers’ comparisons of the ALKS 3831 
treatment experience with previous treatment experiences. 
Selection and Withdrawal of Subjects 
Substudy Sites 
A subset of sites with subjects enrolled in ALK3831-A304 will be eligible to participate in the 
substudy. Approval from the appropriate IEC/IRB must be obtained for each site participating in 
the substudy.

Substudy Participants 
Approximately 50 subjects who participated in ALK3831-A304 and approximately 15 of their 
caregivers are expected to participate in the substudy. Subjects who enroll in the substudy will 
have completed study procedures for the end of treatment/early discontinuation visit described in 
Section 8.2 and will meet the criteria for inclusion in the substudy.   
Subject Inclusion Criteria 
Selection of subjects to be interviewed will be based on the following inclusion criteria: 
1. Subject is willing and able to provide written informed consent. 
2. Subject has completed or prematurely discontinued from study ALK3831-A304.  
3. Subject speaks English fluently. 
4. Subject is willing and able to participate in a 60-minute interview. 
5. If not participating in study ALK3831-A308, subject agrees to schedule an interview 
within 60 days of completing or prematurely discontinuing from study ALK3831-A304. 
If subject is participating in study ALK3831-A308, the interview may be conducted at 
any time after completing study ALK3831-A304. 
There is no exclusion criterion for participants of this substudy; any subject who meets the 
inclusion criteria may participate. 
Caregiver Inclusion Criteria 
Caregivers of subjects participating in the ALK3831-A304 substudy will be selected for 
interview based on the following inclusion criteria: 
6. Subject has provided written informed consent to allow caregiver to be interviewed 
regarding subject’s condition and treatment experience. 
7. Caregiver must be willing and able to provide written informed consent to participate in 
the substudy. 
8. Caregiver is in contact several times per week with the subject participating in the 
substudy. Caregivers can be family members, friends, or paid professional caregivers. 
Caregivers may provide full- or part-time help to the person with schizophrenia. 
9. Caregiver speaks English fluently.  
10. Caregiver is willing and able to participate in a 60-minute interview, either in person or 
via telephone. 
There is no exclusion criterion for caregivers participating in this substudy; any caregiver who 
meets the inclusion criteria may participate. 
Subject or CaregiverWithdrawal 
A subject or caregiver may withdraw consent to participate in this substudy at any time. A 
subject who chooses to withdraw consent to participate in the substudy may continue full 
participation in any other ongoing ALKS 3831 study, as eligible.

Substudy Design 
This is a qualitative study involving interviews with approximately 50 subjects who have either 
completed or prematurely terminated participation in ALK3831-A304, and with approximately 
15 of their caregivers. Subjects will return to the clinical site for an interview within 60 days of 
completing Visit 27, or at any time if continuing in study ALK3831-A308. Interviewers will 
follow standardized, semi-structured Interview Guides developed specifically for the study. 
Caregivers will be interviewed by phone/webcam to explore their perspectives of subjects’ 
treatment and study experience. Qualitative analysis will involve scoring transcribed interviews 
for concepts that emerge during the substudy.  
Substudy Procedures 
Informed consent for participation in substudy 
Each subject and caregiver must provide written informed consent to participate in the substudy 
prior to scheduling an interview. In addition, for each participating caregiver, written informed 
consent for the caregiver to be interviewed regarding the subject’s condition and treatment 
experience must be obtained from the subject.  
Concept Elicitation Interviews  
Interviewers 
All interviews will be conducted by qualitative researchers with experience and training in 
conducting qualitative interviews.  
Patient Concept Elicitation Interviews 
The goal of the Patient Concept Elicitation interview is to gain insight into how living with and 
being treated for schizophrenia impacts the way the subjects feel and function in daily life, and to 
document preferences and comparative information about current and prior treatment 
experiences.  
Interviewers will follow the Subject Interview Guide containing questions designed to document 
concepts related to schizophrenia including, but not limited to burden of disease, physical 
function, role function, social function, and overall treatment experiences, as well as satisfaction 
and preferences regarding treatment received during and prior to participation in study 
ALK3831-A304.  
Questions in the interview guide will utilize a standardized methodology for collecting subjects’ 
responses to open-ended questions, and following up by probing to elicit more specific and 
nuanced detail.  
Interviews will be conducted with the subject present at the clinical site. The interviewer may 
participate either in person or by videoconference. At the start of the interview, the interviewer 
will confirm that each participant understands and has signed the ICF.

CONFIDENTIAL 
Each interview will last approximately 60 minutes and will include an introduction 
(approximately 5 minutes), a concept elicitation portion (approximately 50 minutes), and a 
conclusion (approximately 5 minutes). After several interviews have been completed and 
transcripts have been reviewed, the Subject Interview Guide may be revised to capture emergent 
concepts and to pose questions more effectively. 
Caregiver Concept Elicitation Interviews 
Each subject will be asked during the in-person concept elicitation interview whether the 
subject’s caregiver might be agreeable to participating in a separate telephone interview. If so, 
the subject will be asked for written consent for the subject’s caregiver to be interviewed, and 
will be provided with contact information to share with the caregiver for the purpose of 
scheduling a telephone interview.   
Caregivers of subjects participating in this substudy will be interviewed by telephone or 
videoconference/telephone. The design of the concept elicitation interview with caregivers will 
mirror that for concept elicitation interviews of subjects; however, questions in the Caregiver 
Interview Guide will be designed to elicit a caregiver’s feedback on a subject’s experiences with 
schizophrenia, particularly the burden of disease, as well as treatment preferences and treatment 
satisfaction. Additionally, caregivers will be asked to share experiences around the burden of 
caring for someone with schizophrenia, impact of this burden on quality of life, and impressions 
of treatment successes and challenges, as well as experiences in caring for a clinical trial 
participant. Although all caregiver interviews will be conducted remotely, other aspects of 
interview procedures will be similar to those for subject interviews. 
Statistics 
Data Coding  
Interview transcripts will be independently coded using content thematic analysis, in accordance 
with Grounded Theory methods [(Corbin and Strauss 2008), Chapters 8 through 11; (Patrick et 
al, 2011)]. Coding will be verified by two trained qualitative researchers until saturation (the 
point at which no new information emerges) is reached. Coding will occur after each round of 
interviews, enabling results to inform refinement of subsequent interviews.  
Data Analysis 
To identify patterns in responses and confirm important concepts reported by subjects with 
schizophrenia and their caregivers (eg, burden of disease, areas of impact related to patients’ 
quality of life, overall treatment experiences, treatment satisfaction, and treatment preferences), 
coded transcripts will be reviewed for emerging themes [(Corbin and Strauss 2008), Chapter 8]. 
This methodology allows identification of new concepts emerging from interviews with patients 
or caregivers, rather than limiting inquiry to concepts imposed by a predetermined theory. All 
qualitative data obtained from substudy interviews will be analyzed using NVivo qualitative 
research software, version 11.0 (NVivo qualitative data analysis software; QSR International 
PTY Ltd. Version 11, 2015). Final details of the analysis will be captured in a substudy data 
analysis plan. Results from this substudy will be provided in an addendum to the clinical study 
report for ALK3831-A304.

CONFIDENTIAL 
Safety Reporting 
The interview guide will not include any question regarding a specific adverse event (AE). 
Interviewers will be trained to inform the Principal Investigator of any unsolicited AE reported 
during the interview upon conclusion of the interview. Adverse events and serious AEs (SAEs) 
will be reported in accordance with Section 13 of the protocol.  
Ethical Considerations 
Institutional Review Board 
The responsible IRB (Section 17.1 of the protocol) for each site participating in the substudy 
must review and approve protocol sections describing the substudy, the Subject Interview Guide, 
and any revisions made, as well as information on the substudy to be provided to participating 
subjects and caregivers in obtaining written informed consent. 
Ethical Conduct of the Substudy 
This substudy will be conducted in accordance with the protocol, the ICH Guideline E6, and all 
applicable local regulatory requirements. Alkermes is committed to complying with this standard 
to provide assurance that the rights, safety, and well-being of study subjects will be protected, 
consistent with the principles having their origin in the Declaration of Helsinki. 
Written Informed consent 
In addition to written informed consent previously obtained from subjects to participate in the 
main study ALK3831-A304, all subjects and caregivers who voluntarily agree to participate in 
this substudy must provide separate written consent to the interview, to interview recording, and 
to subsequent analysis of interview responses.  
Data Handling and Recordkeeping 
Data Capture 
Subjects will be interviewed at the clinical trial site by interviewers participating either in person 
or through videoconference. Caregivers will be interviewed via telephone or videoconference/ 
telephone.  
In-person interviews will be audiotaped using digital audio-recorder equipment and later 
transcribed verbatim. Telephone interviews will be recorded using WebEx and a back-up audio 
recorder. Recordings will be sent to a qualitative research vendor via a secure file transfer system 
to be transcribed verbatim. The qualitative vendor will redact all personal information from the 
transcript before submitting back via the secure file transfer system. 
Interview transcripts will be independently content-coded and verified by two trained qualitative 
researchers. Coding will be reviewed by a senior qualitative scientist. Any identified discrepancy 
between coders will be reviewed, discussed, and resolved by the substudy research team.

1. 
INTRODUCTION 
This statistical analysis plan (SAP) describes the statistical methods to be used for analyses and 
presentation of safety and efficacy data for the study ALK3831-A304. ALK3831-A304 is a 52-
week, open-label safety extension study of ALK3831-A303. This document has been prepared 
based on Alkermes ALK3831-A304 Study Protocol Amendment 3.0 (dated 26 April 2018)1. 
1.1. 
Study Objectives 
1.1.1. 
Primary Objective 
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the long-term safety and tolerability of 
ALKS 3831 in subjects with schizophrenia.  
1.2. 
Summary of the Study Design 
Subjects are eligible to be enrolled in the study within 7 days after completing the 24-week 
treatment period of the antecedent study, ALK3831-A303.  
Subjects enrolled in the study will be started on the same olanzapine dose that they had 
maintained at the end of ALK3831-A303. Subjects taking 20 mg olanzapine (either as OLZ 20 or 
ALKS 3831 20/10 [20 mg olanzapine/10 mg samidorphan]) will start on ALKS 3831 20/10 in 
this study and subjects taking 10 mg olanzapine (either as OLZ 10 or ALKS 3831 10/10 [10 mg 
olanzapine/10 mg samidorphan) will start on ALKS 3831 10/10 in this study. An intermediate 
dose, ALKS 3831 15/10 (15 mg olanzapine/10 mg samidorphan), will also be available, and 
subjects may be titrated to this dose any time after the start of the study at the investigator’s 
discretion. Dosing is flexible throughout the study; however, frequent adjustments are 
discouraged. Dose adjustments can only be performed on-site at the study center. Subjects 
requiring dose adjustments between scheduled visits should arrange an unscheduled visit for the 
following procedures: study drug return, adherence review, adverse event monitoring, and study 
drug dispensation. Safety assessments will include AE monitoring, clinical laboratory testing, 
vital signs, weight and waist circumference assessments, 12-lead ECGs, movement disorder 
assessments, including the Abnormal Involuntary Movement Scale (AIMS), Barnes Akathisia 
Rating Scale (BARS), Simpson Angus Scale (SAS), and the Columbia-Suicide Severity Rating 
Scale (C-SSRS). 
Efficacy assessments to evaluate the durability of treatment effect will include Positive and 
Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS) and Clinical Global Impressions-Severity (CGI-S). 
Additional assessments include Impact of Weight on Quality of Life–Lite Questionnaire 
(IWQOL-Lite), Cigarette Use, and EuroQOL-5D (EQ-5D). 
Subjects completing 52 weeks of treatment with study drug will be eligible to continue in another 
open-label, long-term safety study (ALK3831-A308) and will continue to receive ALKS 3831. 
Subjects not continuing in the ALK3831-A308 long-term safety study will enter a 4-week Safety 
Follow-up Period.

*Visits will occur biweekly throughout the 52-week Treatment Period. Subjects will start the study on the 
equivalent olanzapine dose to what they maintained at the end of ALK3831-A303. The dose may be adjusted 
to either 10/10, 15/10, or 20/10 mg throughout the study period, based on Investigator discretion, and 
such dose adjustments will require subjects to visit the study site. 
2. 
SAMPLE SIZE CONSIDERATION 
No formal sample size calculation is performed for this extension study. A sample size of 
approximately 540 is based on the estimated maximum number of subjects who might be 
expected to continue from the ALK3831-A303 study. 
3. 
DATA ANALYSIS 
3.1. 
General Statistical Methodology 
Baseline for efficacy or safety analysis is defined as the last non-missing assessment before the 
first dose of ALKS 3831 in the ALK3831-A304 study, and it will be used for all efficacy and 
safety analysis, unless specified otherwise.  
Baseline of precedent study (A303) is defined as the last non-missing assessment before the first 
dose of study drug in the ALK3831-A303 study. It will be used for the summary of the PANSS 
total score and subscales and body weight results.  
Treatment sequence is defined according to the treatment assignment in antecedent and current 
studies as ALKS 3831/ALKS 3831 (ALKS 3831 in both ALK3831-A303 study and ALK3831-
A304 study) and OLZ/ALKS 3831 (olanzapine in ALK3831-A303 study and ALKS 3831 in

CGI-S response will be categorized into the categories summarized in Table 1. The number and 
percentage of subjects in each category and with shifts from baseline will be summarized based 
on the observed data by descriptive statistics at 4, 12, 24 and 52 weeks. The shift categories are 
summarized in Table 2.  
Time to treatment discontinuation will be analyzed using the Kaplan-Meier method. Both all-
cause discontinuation and discontinuation due to AE will be summarized. For prematurely 
discontinued subjects (all-cause or due to AE), time to discontinuation is defined as time from 
the date of first dose of study drug to the date of last dose of study drug. Other subjects will be 
censored at the last dose of the study drug.

Other Endpoints 
• Change from baseline in IWQOL-Lite scales (total score, physical function, self-
esteem, sexual life, public distress, and work) by visit 
• Change from baseline in EQ-5D-5L index value and visual analogue scale (VAS) 
score by visit 
Descriptive statistics of IWQOL-Lite scales and EQ-5D-5L, including n, mean, SD, median, 
minimum, and maximum, will be summarized by visit based on observed data. 
The IWQOL-Lite scale is a 31-item self-report measure of obesity-specific quality of life. 
IWQOL-Lite provides an overall total score as well as scores on five domains: (1) physical 
function, (2) self-esteem, (3) sexual life, (4) public distress, and (5) work. The raw scores will be 
transformed as follows (Tessier et al, 2012)3: the transformed scores range from 0 to 100, with 
100 representing the best, and 0 representing the most impaired quality of life.

The EQ-5D-5L is a validated quality of life questionnaire developed by the EuroQol Group in 
order to provide a simple, generic utility measure for characterizing current health states of 
patients. EQ-5D-5L is designed for self-completion by subjects. It consists of 2 parts – the EQ-
5D-5L descriptive system and the VAS. 
The EQ-5D-5L descriptive system comprises 5 dimensions: mobility, self-care, usual activities, 
pain/discomfort, and anxiety/depression. Each dimension has 5 levels. 
The 5 dimensional 5-level systems are converted into an index value. Values for theoretically 
possible health states are calculated using a regression model and weighted according to the 
social preferences of the U.S. population (Van Hout et al, 2012)4. The VAS records the 
respondent’s self-rated health on a vertical VAS. The VAS has 100 (Best health you can 
imagine) at the top, and 0 (Worst health you can imagine) at the bottom. This information can be 
used as a quantitative measure of health outcomes as judged by the individual respondents. EQ-
5D-5L self-reported VAS data generates information on the self-perceived overall health-related 
quality of life. Change from baseline in EQ-5D-5L index value and VAS score will be analyzed.

Safety Analysis 
3.9.1. 
Adverse Events 
Incidence of treatment emergent AEs (TEAEs) will be analyzed as a safety endpoint. Adverse 
events will be coded by System Organ Class and Preferred Term using the Medical Dictionary 
for Regulatory Activities (MedDRA®) Version 21.0 or higher. The verbatim term will be 
included in the AE listings. 
An AE (coded by preferred term) will be considered as a TEAE if the event is newly occurring 
or worsening on or after the date of first dose of study drug and within 7 days after the last dose 
of study drug in this study.  
An overview table, including number of subjects with TEAEs, AEs leading to treatment 
discontinuation, study drug related TEAEs, and SAEs will be provided. 
The incidence (number and percentage) of subjects reporting TEAEs during the treatment period 
will be presented for the following categories:  
• System organ class and preferred term  
• Preferred term, and including the following subset: 
 TEAEs experienced by ≥2% of subjects (in any group)  
• System organ class, preferred term, and severity  
• System organ class, preferred term for severe TEAEs

• System organ class, preferred term, and relationship  
• System organ class, preferred term for study drug related TEAEs  
If the same preferred term occurred more than once for the same subject, the subject will be 
counted only once for that preferred term using the most severe and most related occurrence for 
the summarization by severity and by relationship to the study drug. 
In addition, the number and percentage of subjects reporting AEs during the safety follow-up 
period will be tabulated by the system organ class and preferred term. 
Subgroup analysis by age (<40 years vs ≥40 years), sex (Female vs Male) and race (Black or 
African American, White, and Other) will be performed for TEAEs during the treatment period 
by preferred term.  
3.9.1.1. 
Deaths, Serious and Other Significant AEs  
The number and percentage of subjects who have serious adverse events (SAEs) and AEs 
leading to premature discontinuation from the treatment will be summarized by system organ 
class and preferred term. 
By-subject listings will be provided for SAEs, AEs leading to treatment discontinuation and AEs 
leading to death. 
3.9.1.2. 
Other Significant AEs 
In addition, incidence of a selected subset of relevant AEs in this class of drugs (e.g., 
Extrapyramidal symptoms [EPS) TEAEs, TEAE to evaluate potential of suicidal ideation and 
behavior, etc.) will be summarized by preferred term. The selection of AEs per subset will be 
based on the preferred terms from Standardized MedDRA queries (SMQs) or Customized 
MedDRA queries (CMQ’s).  
3.9.1.3. 
Analysis of Abuse Potential, Withdrawal, and Dependence 
3.9.1.3.1. Analysis of Abuse Potential 
Number and percentage subjects with TEAEs to evaluate abuse potential will be summarized by 
category (abuse behavior, euphoria related, and non-specific) and preferred term. The selection 
of AEs per subset will be based on the preferred terms from Customized MedDRA queries 
(CMQs). 
3.9.1.3.2. Analysis of Withdrawal and Dependence 
Adverse events with an onset date within 2 weeks (>2 to ≤16 days) after the last dose of the 
study drug in those subjects who have received at least 4 weeks of study drug will be included in 
the evaluation of the potential for withdrawal and dependence. The selection of AEs per subset 
will be based on the preferred terms from Customized MedDRA queries (CMQs).

The number and percentage of subjects with such AEs will be summarized in the Post-
discontinuation Safety Populations by preferred term for subjects with a duration of study drug 
exposure ≥4 weeks.  
3.9.2. 
Clinical Laboratory Parameters 
Laboratory parameters will be presented in conventional (ie, US) units. Only scheduled 
laboratory parameters will be included in the summaries, unless specified otherwise. All 
laboratory data, including those collected at unscheduled visits, will be included in the listings. 
Laboratory results including baseline and change from baseline during the treatment period for 
chemistry and hematology parameters will be summarized by visit. 
Clinical laboratory test values, scheduled or unscheduled, will be considered potentially 
clinically significant (PCS) if they meet PCS criteria listed in Table 3. The number and 
percentage of subjects who have postbaseline PCS clinical laboratory values will be summarized. 
The percentages will be calculated based on the number of subjects with non-PCS baseline value 
and have at least one postbaseline assessment. All PCS values including baseline PCS values 
will be included in supportive listings. 
For selected metabolic parameters (fasting total cholesterol, fasting high density 
lipoprotein[HDL], fasting low density lipoprotein[LDL], fasting triglycerides, fasting glucose, 
and hemoglobin A1c[HbA1c]), an analysis of sustained PCS values will also be conducted. The 
percentage of subjects with sustained PCS values through the treatment period will be 
summarized. The denominator is all subjects with non-PCS at baseline and at least two 
postbaseline assessments, and the numerator is the number of subjects who met PCS criteria at 
the last 2 assessments within the treatment period.  
Shift tables for selected fasting metabolic parameters (total cholesterol, LDL, HDL, triglycerides, 
glucose and HbA1c) and liver function tests will be presented. The criteria are summarized in 
Table 4, Table 5 and Table 6.

CHANGES IN CONDUCT OR PLANNED ANALYSES FROM 
THE PROTOCOL 
To further assess the long-term durability, the following analysis was added in SAP but were not 
specified in protocol.  
• Shift analysis in CGI-S 
6. 
DEFINITIONS AND CONVENTIONS FOR HANDLING OF THE 
DATA 
Dataset specifications will be provided in a separate document. 
6.1. 
Analysis Visit Windows 
Scheduled analysis visits are visits at scheduled timepoints as specified in the protocol 
(Table 3 Schedule of Visits and Assessments). 
Scheduled analysis visits during the study period will be the same as the nominal visits collected 
in eCRF. There will be one valid value of assessment kept for each scheduled analysis visit 
in summary/analysis statistics. 
Unscheduled visits are visits with data not collected on the scheduled time point. Unscheduled 
visits will not be used for by-visit summary/analysis statistics, unless specified otherwise. 
All unscheduled visits as collected in eCRF will be included in listings. 
Last postbaseline values are defined as the last valid postbaseline values collected for each 
subject during the treatment period.  
An early termination (ET) visit during the on-treatment period can be mapped to a scheduled 
visit, if there is no valid value already at that visit. Visit windows are defined in Table 11 and 
Table 12. An ET visit that is not mapped will not be summarized in the tables or figures, but will 
be included in the listing.

6.2. 
Handling of Partial Dates of Concomitant Medication 
Partial start dates of prior and concomitant medications will be assumed to be the earliest 
possible date consistent with the partial date. Partial stop dates of prior and concomitant 
medications will be assumed to be the latest possible date consistent with the partial date. In 
the case of completely missing stop date, medication will be assumed to be ongoing. 
6.3. 
Handling of Safety Data 
All efforts should be made to obtain the missing information from the investigator. For C-SSRS, 
vital signs, laboratory testing (chemistry, hematology, urinalysis), and 12-lead ECGs, only 
observed data will be used for analyses, and missing data will not be imputed.

GENERAL STATISTICAL METHODOLOGY 
In general, summary statistics (n, mean, SD, median, minimum, and maximum for continuous 
variables, and number and percentage of subjects in each category for categorical variables) will 
be provided by treatment sequence and overall. All summary tables will be based on observed 
data, and missing values will not be imputed. Measurements collected from unscheduled visits or 
repeated assessments will not be included in the by-visit summary tables or figures, but will be 
included in the analyses for the PCS postbaseline values, and subject listings. Source data for the 
summary tables will be presented as subject data listings. 
7.1. 
Reporting Precision 
Summary statistics will be presented to the following degree of precision, unless otherwise 
specified: 
Table 13: 
Degree of Precision 
Statistics 
Degree of Precision 
 
Mean, Median, Confidence limit 
boundaries 
One more than the raw data, up to 3 decimal places. 
Standard deviation, Standard error 
One more than the mean, up to 3 decimal places 
Minimum, Maximum 
The same as the raw data, up to 2 decimal places 
P-value 
Rounded to 3 decimal places and therefore presented as 
0.xxx; P-values smaller than 0.001 as ‘<0.001’; P-values 
greater than 0.999 as ‘>0.999’. 
Percentage 
One decimal place. A percentage of 100% will be 
reported as 100%. Percentages of zero will be reported 
as 0. 
Fractional numeric values will be presented with a zero to the left of the decimal point (for 
example, 0.12 – 0.30). 
For weight, height, and BMI, one decimal place will be used for summary statistics, unless 
otherwise specified. 
8. 
PROGRAMMING SPECIFICATIONS 
Programming specifications will be provided in a separate document.
