- Participants taking an antipsychotic agent at Screening may participate in this study only if there are signs of intolerability or lack of efficacy of the current antipsychotic (as determined by the Investigator).
- Participant is, in the opinion of the Investigator, generally healthy based on Screening medical history, PE, neurological examination, vital signs, electrocardiogram (ECG) and clinical laboratory values (hematology, chemistry and urinalysis).
- Exclusion criteria:
- Main exclusion criteria include, but are not limited to:
- Participant was hospitalized for a psychiatric illness within the 8 weeks prior to Screening.

- Participant is judged to be resistant to antipsychotic treatment by the Investigator, based on failure to respond to 2 or more marketed antipsychotic agents within a 1-year period prior to Screening, given at adequate dose as per labeling, for at least 4 weeks.
- Participant answers "yes" to "Suicidal Ideation" Item 4 (active suicidal ideation with some intent to act, without specific plan) or Item 5 (active suicidal ideation with specific plan and intent) on the C-SSRS assessment at Screening (i.e., in the past one month) or at Baseline (i.e., since last visit).
- Participant is at significant risk of harming self or others based on Investigator's judgment.

- Participant has any clinically significant unstable medical condition or any clinically significant chronic disease that in the opinion of the Investigator, would limit the participant's ability to complete and/or participate in the study.
- Participant has any clinically significant abnormal laboratory value(s) at Screening as determined by investigator.
