A 26-week, Multi-center, Open-label, Flexible Dose, Long-term Safety Trial of Asenapine in Adolescent Subjects With Schizophrenia

This study is designed to evaluate whether asenapine, which is a US FDA-approved acute

have completed participation in the 8-week study in order to qualify for this study.
Participants will receive open-label asenapine for 26 weeks. Throughout the study,
observations will be made on each participant at various times to assess the long-term
safety, tolerability and efficacy of the study treatment.

inclusion/exclusion criteria are met.

- Must have completed the 8-week efficacy and safety trial (P05896) and, according to
