June 16, 2008 7:42 AM EDT

ACADIA Pharmaceuticals Inc. (Nasdaq: ACAD) announced results from its Phase IIb trial with ACP-104 for the treatment of schizophrenia. The study did not meet its primary endpoint of antipsychotic efficacy or any of the secondary endpoints. Neither dose of ACP-104 demonstrated improved efficacy as compared to placebo. The most common adverse events in the treatment arms relative to placebo were increased salivation, tachycardia, and dyspepsia, which were noted to be dose-related. There was no clinically significant decrease in neutrophil counts in the study drug arms.

The company said, "we currently do not anticipate conducting further studies with ACP-104."
