Brief Summary   This is a 46-week, open-label, multi-center, extension to Study NW-3509/014/II/2019 (Study 014) designed to evaluate the long-term safety, tolerability and preliminary efficacy of evenamide as add-on treatment in patients with TRS on a stable therapeutic dose of an antipsychotic. In Study 014, 50 patients are to be randomized equally (1:1) to the 7.5 mg bid and 15 mg bid doses (approximately 25 in each group), and key safety data from these patients will be reviewed by an Independent Safety Monitoring Board (ISMB). If this review of the data indicates there are no safety issues, the 30 mg bid dose group will be initiated, and randomization will continue, with a total of approximately 50 patients being enrolled in each of the three treatment groups. If the 30 mg bid group is not added, the 150 patients will be randomly assigned (1:1) to the 7.5 and 15 mg bid treatment groups (approximately 75 in each group).
