No, but there's quite a bit of iformation on its side effects (it's a pwerful mind-altering drug).

There have been 10 studies in three countries (United States, Denmark and Turkey). These include the following (note that some studies cite more than one side effect, so the list below may not be equal to the total number of studies):

3 studies on Abilify causing death
3 studies on Abilify causing diabetes/weight gain
1 study on Abilify causing violence/homicidal ideation
1 study on Abilify causing seizure/tremors
1 study on Abilify causing Neuroleptic Malignant Syndrome (a life-threatening neurological disorder, with side effects including: high fever, blood pressure changes, confusion, coma, and sometimes death)
