    Evaluation of the difference on STAXI-2 between the active treatment arm and the placebo arm

  6. Efficacy: State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI) [ Time Frame: Change up to week 14 and from baseline to week 14 ]
    Evaluation of the difference on STAI between the active treatment arm and the placebo arm

  7. Safety - Adverse events [ Time Frame: From baseline to week 14 ]
    Treatment emergent adverse events

  8. Safety - Withdrawn patients [ Time Frame: From baseline to week 14 ]
    Percentage of withdrawn patients

  9. Safety endpoints - Columbia-Suicide Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS). [ Time Frame: From baseline to week 14 ]
    Columbia-Suicide Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS)

  3. Agitation-Aggression Psychiatric Inventory-Clinician Report (AAPI-CR) Agitation & Aggression (A/A) subscale score of > 16 (severity x frequency) summed across the four (4) items comprising the A/A subscale, and the sum of the A/A subscale severity scores > 6.
  4. Outpatient known to the site or investigator and has been treated by the site or investigator for at least the last 3 months prior to the Screening visit.
  5. Stable living environment for > 6 months before the Screening visit.

  13. Fertile male and female subjects must use highly efficient contraception, from the Screening visit until 30 days after last dose of the IMP, defined as:

    A method with less than 1% failure rate (e.g., permanent sterilization, hormone implants, hormone injections, some intrauterine devices, or vasectomized partner) OR The use of two methods of contraception (e.g., one barrier method [condom, diaphragm or cervical/vault caps] with spermicide and one hormonal contraceptive [e.g., combined oral contraceptives, patch, vaginal ring, injectable and implants])

  14. Female subjects of childbearing potential must have a negative urine pregnancy test at screening and baseline.
  15. Signed informed consent by participant prior to the initiation of any study specific procedure.

  4. History of moderate or severe substance or alcohol use disorder according to DSM-5, with the exception of nicotine and caffeine, within 6-months before screening.
  5. Use of illicit drugs for at least one week before Screening and subjects unwilling to abstain from use of these substances during the study.
