Trial Design

6Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Placebo Group
Group I: Stage 1: Placebo Responders to Stage 2: AVP-786Experimental Treatment3 Interventions
Participants who will be randomized to receive placebo in Stage 1 and will be classified as responders (responders" if mCGI-S score is ≤ 3 at Day 43 and NPI-C-3 score has decreased by ≥ 25% from baseline) after Week 6 will be re-randomized to receive AVP-786 in Stage 2 using the same dose escalation schedule used in Stage 1 i.e., AVP-786-28/4.9 capsule, along with AVP-786 matching placebo capsule, orally, QD during Week 7 followed by AVP-786-28/4.9 capsule, orally, BID during Week 8, and AVP-786-42.63/4.9 capsules, orally, BID, during Weeks 9 to 12 of the Stage 2 treatment period.
Group II: Stage 1: Placebo Non-responders to Stage 2: AVP-786Experimental Treatment3 Interventions
Participants who will be randomized randomized to receive placebo in Stage 1 and will be classified as non-responders (responders" if mCGI-S score is ≤ 3 at Day 43 and NPI-C-3 score has decreased by ≥ 25% from baseline. Participants who will not meet these criteria will be considered "non-responders) after Week 6 will be re-randomized to receive AVP-786 in Stage 2 using the same dose escalation schedule used in Stage 1 i.e., AVP-786-28/4.9 capsule, along with AVP-786 matching placebo capsule, orally, QD during Week 7 followed by AVP-786-28/4.9 capsule, orally, BID during Week 8, and AVP-786-42.63/4.9 capsules, orally, BID, during Weeks 9 to 12 of the Stage 2 treatment period.
Group III: AVP-786Experimental Treatment3 Interventions
Participants will receive AVP-786-28/4.9 (deudextromethorpan hydrobromide [d6-DM] 28 milligrams (mg)/quinidine sulfate [Q] 4.9 mg) capsule, along with AVP-786 matching placebo capsule, orally, once daily (QD) during Week 1 followed by AVP-786-28/4.9 capsule, orally, BID during Week 2, and AVP-786-42.63/4.9 (d6-DM 42.63 mg/Q 4.9 mg) capsules (target dose), orally, BID during Weeks 3 to 12 of the treatment period.
Group IV: Stage 1: PlaceboPlacebo Group1 Intervention
Participants will receive AVP-786 matching placebo capsules, orally, twice daily (BID) during Weeks 1 to 6 of the Stage 1 treatment period.
Group V: Stage 1: Placebo Non-responders to Stage 2: PlaceboPlacebo Group1 Intervention
Participants who will be randomized to receive placebo in Stage 1 and will be classified as non-responders (responders" if modified Clinical Global Impression of Severity [mCGI-S] score is ≤ 3 at Day 43 and Neuropsychiatric Inventory Clinician (NPI-C)-3 score has decreased by ≥ 25% from baseline. Participants who will not meet these criteria will be considered "non-responders) after Week 6 will be re-randomized to continue receiving AVP-786 matching placebo capsules, orally, BID during Weeks 7 to 12 of the Stage 2 treatment period.
Group VI: Stage 1: Placebo Responders to Stage 2: PlaceboPlacebo Group1 Intervention
Participants who will be randomized to receive placebo in Stage 1 and will be classified as responders (responders" if mCGI-S score is ≤ 3 at Day 43 and NPI-C-3 score has decreased by ≥ 25% from baseline) after Week 6 will be re-randomized to continue receiving AVP-786 matching placebo capsules, orally, BID during Weeks 7 to 12 of the Stage 2 treatment period.
