I heard they going to do trials for negative symptoms at some point.

In Emergent1,2,3 trials, improvement of negatives was not a primary goal of the trials.
In Emergent1 negatives went down -3.2 with med, -0.9 with placebo. In Emergent2 negatives went down -3.4 with med, -1.6 with placebo, for a lesser effect size. As per Matsblog.
The Emergent3 trial did not find a statistically significant improvement in negatives compared to placebo.
