Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this study is to explore the impact of Ziprasidone HCl on the distribution of metabolic syndrome (MS) risk factors in a population of Bipolar patients presenting with glucose intolerance, dyslipidemia and/or elevated waist circumference associated with their current antipsychotic medication.

Description:

The trial was terminated prematurely on December 14, 2010, due to inability to recruit the planned number of subjects and shifting organizational priorities. The decision to terminate the trial was not based on any safety or efficacy concerns.

Recruitment information / eligibility

• Status: Terminated
• Enrollment: 13
• Est. completion date: February 2011
• Est. primary completion date: February 2011
• Accepts healthy volunteers: No
• Gender: All
• Age group: 18 Years to 65 Years

Eligibility

Inclusion Criteria:

• Subject must present at least 2 of the following risk factors of MS at screening:

Elevated waist circumference: >102 cm in men and >88 cm in women; Elevated triglycerides (TGs): =1.7 mmol/L (=150 mg/dL); Reduced HDL-Cholesterol: <1.03 mmol/L (<40 mg/dL) in men and <1.3 mmol/L (<50 mg/dL) in women; Elevated fasting glucose: = 5.6 mmol/L.

• According to the clinical judgment of the investigator, the risk factors for MS have developed in close temporal relationship to starting an antipsychotic medication.
• Substitution to a less metabolically disruptive antipsychotic medication is considered

Exclusion Criteria:

• Subjects with contraindication(s) to the use of Ziprasidone according to Canadian prescribing information.
• Subjects with a history of treatment resistance.
• Subjects with any medical condition (e.g. pre-existing diabetes, pre-existing dyslipidemia, thyroid pathology) or taking any concomitant medication (e.g. topiramate or other weight loss-promoting agents, hypoglycemic agents, hypolipemic agents), that may confound the evaluation of the study drug.
• Body mass index = 40 at baseline.

Health State Profile component assesses level of current health for 5 domains: mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain and discomfort, and anxiety and depression; 1 indicates better health state (no problems); 3 indicates worst health state (confined to bed). Scoring formula developed by EuroQol Group assigns a utility value for each domain in the profile. Score is transformed and results in a total score range -0.594 to 1.000; higher score indicates a better health state.	Baseline, Week 28, Week 52 or Early Termination
Secondary	Change From Baseline in European Quality of Life (EuroQol) Visual Analogue Scale (EQ-5D VAS): Current Health State Score	EQ-5D: subject rated questionnaire to assess health-related quality of life in terms of a single index value.

Baseline, Week 28, Week 52 or Early Termination
Secondary	Change From Baseline in Impact of Weight on Quality of Life-Lite Version (IWQOL-Lite) Scale	31-item self report inventory to assess impact of weight on quality of life. Five subscales: physical functioning, self-esteem, sexual life, public distress, and work, with categories in each subscale scored 1 (no trouble or difficulty) to 5 (persistent trouble or difficulty). The rescaled IWQoL-Lite score is determined by the sum of scores on all 31 items and rescaling this sum to a 1 to 100 scoring with 0=the poorest and 100=the best quality of life.	Baseline, Week 28, Week 52 or Early Termination
Secondary	Number of Participants With Suicidal Tendencies (Columbian-Suicide Severity Rating Scale, [C-SSRS], Mapped to C-CASA [Columbia Classification Algorithm For Suicide Assessment])	C-SSRS is a participant rated questionnaire to assess suicidal ideation, suicidal behavior, actual attempts (yes or no responses), and intensity of ideation (rated 1=low severity to 5=high severity). Yes/No responses are mapped to Columbia Classification Algorithm of Suicide Assessment (C-CASA) categories: Completed suicide, suicide attempt, preparatory acts toward imminent suicidal behavior, suicidal ideation, and self-injurious behavior, or no suicidal intent. A participant could have a yes or no response in more than one category.	Baseline, Week 1 through Week 52 or Early Termination
