Brief Summary:
This is an extension of a previous study (ALK9072-003EXT). The purpose of this study is to continue to evaluate the long-term safety and durability of effect of ALKS 9072 in subjects with stable schizophrenia, and to allow subjects who are doing well on ALKS 9072 to continue treatment.

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Number and Percentage of Subjects With Treatment-emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) [ Time Frame: Up to 12 months ]
    This measure includes all incidences, including those that occurred >5%.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Change in Baseline of Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS) Total Score Over Time [ Time Frame: Up to 12 months ]
    This scale consists of symptom constructs (7 positive, 7 negative, 16 general psychopathology), each to be rated on a 7-point Likert-type scale of severity with 1 being absent to 7 being extreme. Minimum scores (best outcome) equals 30 (total scale); maximum scores (worst outcome) equals 210 (total scale). Change is calculated between the baseline visit and the subject's last visit in the treatment period.

  2. Mean Change From Baseline to Endpoint in Clinical Global Impression - Severity (CGI-S) Over Time [ Time Frame: Up to 12 months ]
    The CGI-S is a 7-point scale that requires the clinician to assess how mentally ill the patient is in a specific point in time. Results indicate participants evaluated at one of the following categories: "1: normal, not at all ill"; "2: borderline mentally ill"; "3: mildly ill"; "4: moderately ill"; "5: markedly ill"; "6: severely ill"; and "7: among the most extremely ill patients". Results indicate a change in CGI-S score from baseline to Day 365 based on the observed data. Change is calculated between the baseline visit and the subject's last visit in the treatment period.
