Filter by:Within the schizophrenia population, there are individuals that respond to first-line antipsychotic treatments while others do not. The availability of muscarinic M4 subtype receptors (M4R) may play a role as to whether a person with schizophrenia is responsive to first-line antipsychotics or not. The goal of this observational study is to compare the availability of M4R in antipsychotic-free patients with schizophrenia and matched healthy controls. In addition, M4R availability in schizophrenia patients will be examined in relation to response to first line antipsychotics and clinical and cognitive measures. This study may help better understand antipsychotic resistance in schizophrenia and lead to the development of new treatment options, particularly for cognitive deficits and negative symptoms.
The goal of this clinical trial is to examine if iTBS applied to the DMPFC improves social cognitive performance compared to sham stimulation in people diagnosed with schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorder, schizophreniform disorder, or psychotic disorder not otherwise specified. The main objectives of this trial are: - Compare changes in social cognitive performance between the active vs. sham treatment groups - Compare changes in social cognitive network functional connectivity between the active vs. sham treatment groups Each participant will receive iTBS (active or sham) five days per week for four consecutive weeks. Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) scans, clinical assessments, and cognitive tests will be performed at pre-treatment, post-treatment, and 6 months after the completion of treatment.
This is an in-clinic, single arm, open-label study assessing tachyphylaxis, tolerance, and withdrawal following repeated doses of Igalmi in adult males and females with agitation associated with schizophrenia or bipolar disorder.
The primary aim of this trial is evaluating the barriers and enablers of implementing a digital intervention with both therapeutic content and social networking, Horyzons, as part of clinical care in first episode psychosis (FEP) clinics in North Carolina. Providers (clinicians and peers support specialists) will be recruited from FEP clinics to assess Horyzons implementation and integration within clinical care at three time points (baseline, 6 months, and 12 months). Further, individuals experiencing FEP between the ages of 16 and 35 receiving services from the FEP clinics will be recruited to engage with the platform over the course of 12 months. Due to the nature of the digital intervention being implemented across the state of North Carolina, all research visits will be conducted remotely via videoconferencing.
This is a single-arm pilot study to examine the impact of BXCL501 (sublingual film formulation of dexmedetomidine) administration on reducing the severity of undifferentiated acute agitation in patients presenting to the emergency department with underlying bipolar disorder or schizophrenia. This study is designed to evaluate BXCL501 for its FDA-approved indication -- treatment of agitation associated with bipolar disorder or schizophrenia -- applied in the emergency department setting.
The purpose of this study is to perform a practice-based research project designed to assess whether cognition and motivated behavior in early psychosis can be addressed as key treatment goals within real-world settings by using a 12-week mobile intervention program. Participants who are receiving care at coordinated specialty care (CSC) early psychosis clinics across the United States will be recruited to participate in this study. A qualifying CSC program will provide comprehensive clinical services such as psychotherapy, medication management, psychoeducation, and work or education support. This study will be conducted remotely, and participants can participate at home with their own electronic devices. The aim of this study is to investigate a well-defined 12-week mobile intervention program specifically designed to target cognitive functioning and motivated behavior for individuals with early psychosis. Participants will complete a screening interview which will include diagnosis and symptom ratings, neurocognitive assessment, and self-reports of symptoms, behavior, and functioning. Then participants will be randomized to receive the 12-week mobile intervention, or an active control of treatment as usual. The investigators will test for differences in the clinical trajectories after training, and at two follow up appointments at 6 and 12 months post-training.
This study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of Virtual Reality Mindfulness in Patients With Psychosis.
This study aims to provide an evidence-based behavioral intervention to reduce violent behavior for individuals experiencing early psychosis.
In this study, an investigational medication named BXCL501 is being tested for the treatment of episodes of agitation associated with bipolar I and bipolar II disorder, schizophrenia, schizoaffective and schizophreniform disorder. This study compares the study drug to a placebo.
The purpose of this study is to examine state representation in individuals aged 15-40 who have been diagnosed with a psychotic illness, as well as young adults who do not have a psychiatric diagnosis. State Representation is our ability to process information about our surroundings. The investigators will complete some observational tests as well as a cognitive training clinical trial.
