Evoked Responses as Pharmacodynamic Biomarkers in Healthy and Schizophrenic Participants (MK-4334-007)

The primary purpose of this randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled cross-over study was to record and measure 40 Hz-auditory steady-state response (ASSR) in healthy controls (HC) and participants with mild-to-moderate schizophrenia (SZ) to determine if the mean inter-trial coherence (ITC) magnitude derived from the 40 Hz-ASSR is lower in SZ than in HC at baseline.
