This is a 12 week outpatient study for patients with schizophrenia who are on Clozapine, but continue to experience symptoms. The purpose of this project is to find out if small doses of pimozide (an antipsychotic medication, taken by mouth) will be helpful in reducing symptoms (such as hearing voices, having trouble in organizing your thoughts, lack of interest in life events and social activities), compared to placebo (an inactive substance, "sugar pill"), when added to clozapine in patients with schizophrenia.
The participant will be asked to come in once a week to meet with the research staff and study doctor. The participant will continue to see your regular clinician during this study for all normal appointments. The participant will remain on your current medications throughout the study. During the study you will be randomly selected to be put on a small dose of Pimozide or placebo.
If you choose to participate, you will first have screening tests to find out if you are eligible. The study physician will do a number of tests including a physical examination, a routine medical history, lab tests for blood and urine, and EKG (to monitor your heart) and interviews about your physical and mental health.
At each visit you will complete an EKG (to monitor your heart), vital signs, and discuss how you are feeling with the research staff and doctor. Once a month, we will also conduct a slightly longer interview with you about your symptoms and draw one tube of blood to check your Clozapine level. At the beginning and end of the study, you will do some pencil and paper games called "Neurocognitive tests".
If you are interested in participating in this study, we will go over it in greater detail with you, including the possible benefits and risks associated with participating. We will make sure you understand the study before you begin. This study is completely voluntary, which means that you can choose to stop participating in the study at any time.

| Brief Psychiatric Rating Scale (BPRS) Total Score | The Brief Psychiatric Rating Scale (BPRS) is an 18-item instrument. The items are anchored on a 7-point scale (higher rating: greater severity). Total scores range from 18 to 126 (higher score: greater severity). The instrument covers areas including: somatic concerns, anxiety, emotional withdrawal, conceptual disorganization, guilt feelings, tension, mannerisms and posturing, grandiosity, depressive mood, hostility, suspiciousness, hallucinatory behavior, motor retardation, uncooperativeness, unusual thought content, blunted affect, excitement and disorientation. | Baseline |

| Scale for the Assessment of Negative Symptoms (SANS) | The Scale for the Assessment of Negative Symptoms (SANS) is a rating scale to measure negative symptoms in schizophrenia. The scale has 25 items (20 individual and 5 global) rated on scale of 0-5 (higher rating: greater severity). SANS is split into 5 domains, and within each domain separate symptoms are rated from 0 (absent) to 5 (severe). Domains include: Affective Flattening or Blunting, Alogia, Avolition - Apathy, Anhedonia - Asociality, Attention. The total range of the SANS is from 0 to 120. | baseline |

Prior to randomization, a stable dose of clozapine for the past 2 weeks with a blood level of at least 350 ng/ml was targeted. Subjects were stratified as to whether they were receiving psychoactive medications such as mood stabilizers, to ensure that about equal numbers of subjects were randomized based on this treatment profile.
This clinical trial was conducted at the outpatient clinics of the West Haven VA, Connecticut Mental Health Center of Yale Department of Psychiatry, and the Zucker-Hillside Hospital of Long Island Jewish Health Care System, and approved by the respective Institutional Review Boards.

| CGI Severity of Illness Scale (CGI-S) |
CGI Severity of Illness Scale (CGI-S) assesses severity of illness on 1-7 scale. Clinicians' experience is used to gauge the severity of illness from 'normal' (value=1) to 'among the most extremely ill patients' (value=7). The higher rating correlates with more severely ill. |
| Endpoint (12 weeks) |
| CGI Improvement Scale (CGI-I) | CGI Improvement Scale (CGI-I) higher rating correlates with worsening of condition (vs. improvement with lower rating). The CGI-I is scored from 1 to 7 where 1 = 'very much improved' and 7 = 'very much worse'. Clinicians are asked to rate total improvement in the following manner: "...in your judgement, it is due entirely to drug treatment. Compared to his condition at admission to the project, how much has he changed?" | Endpoint (12 weeks) |
| Verbal Fluency | Verbal fluency was measured using the Controlled Word Association Test (COWAT). There is no range for this measure, as it is not a scale. The subjects can generate as many new words as they can, so there is no maximum. The greater the number of words one generates indicates better performance. | Baseline |

| Trail Making Test: Trail A | The Trail Making Test is a neuropsychological test of visual attention and task switching. It consists of two parts in which the subject is instructed to connect a set of 25 dots as fast as possible while still maintaining accuracy. ( Arnett, James A.; Seth S. Labovitz (1995).

Part A is used primarily to examine cognitive processing speed. Part B, in which the subject alternates between numbers and letters, is used to examine executive functioning.
