Summary

Pharmacotherapy for schizophrenia has limitations such as residual positive and negative symptoms, cognitive deficits and intolerable side effects. Refractory schizophrenia (particularly clozapine-resistant) is still a difficult clinical issue at present. According to the N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) hypothesis, adjuvant NMDA-enhancing agents may have therapeutic benefit. DAAOI-1, a D-amino acid oxidase (DAAO) inhibitor, is a NMDA-enhancing agents.

The aim of this project is to examine the effectiveness and safety of DAAOI-1 adjuvant treatment for clozapine-resistant refractory schizophrenia patients in a randomized, double-blind, placebo - controlled trial.
