Filter by:Primary Objective: To evaluate the safety and tolerability of single doses of TV-44749 for subcutaneous (sc) use in Chinese participants with schizophrenia. Secondary Objectives: - To evaluate the pharmacokinetics (PK) of single doses of TV-44749 administered sc. - To evaluate the pharmacokinetics of oral olanzapine tablets following multiple dose administration. - To monitor the safety and tolerability of multiple doses of oral olanzapine tablets given in the study.
A study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, efficacy, pharmacokinetics, and electrophysiology of ANAVEX3-71 in patients with Schizophrenia.
Schizophrenia is a serious mental disorder with a global prevalence of 1%. The main cause of this condition is dysfunction in the signaling of neurotransmitters dopamine, serotonin, glutamate and Gamma-aminobutyric acid .According to recent research, a disturbed cellular energy state caused by mitochondrial dysfunction is thought to be a factor in the development of schizophrenia. The aim of the treatment of schizophrenia is to reduce symptoms and is mainly based on the monoamine hypothesis. Atypical antipsychotics are the first-line of treatment. Certain typical and atypical antipsychotic medications have been shown in prior preclinical research to decrease mitochondrial respiratory chain complex I activity. In contrast to individuals who were drug-naive, Casademont et al. found a significant decrease in complex I activity with haloperidol and risperidone in one cross-sectional observational study. Also, there is evidence suggesting that mitochondrial dysfunction is linked to the extrapyramidal side effects seen with antipsychotics. To date, there are no randomized controlled trials that assess the effect of these drugs on mitochondrial functions. Hence, the present randomized controlled trial has been planned to evaluate and compare the clinical and biochemical markers of mitochondrial dysfunction in schizophrenia patients treated with the atypical antipsychotics risperidone and aripiprazole.
The goal of this case-control study is to compare brain glutamate, glucose utilisation, lactate production and brain activity in healthy volunteers and people with a diagnosis of schizophrenia. It investigates the following main questions: Whether, compared to healthy volunteers, participants with schizophrenia show: 1. reduction in brain glucose utilisation 2. increased brain lactate 3. greater variability in brain glutamate Participants will be asked to have a screening visit, a MRI brain scan and a PET-MRI brain scan.
This study is a double-blind, randomized, controlled intervention study aimed at exploring whether high-frequency transcranial alternating current stimulation (Hi-tACS) can improve cognitive impairment in patients with schizophrenia.
This is a multicenter, global, 26-week, open-label study to assess the safety and tolerability of lumateperone in pediatric patients with schizophrenia or bipolar disorder.
The current study intends to recruit participants with schizophrenia for the practice of Baduanjin, brisk walking, and health education after enrollment. The study also including a maintenance program. Cognitive and physical function assessments will be conducted before, after, and during follow-up tests. The research hypothesis posits that both Baduanjin and brisk walking will confer beneficial effects on various aspects of cognitive and physical functions.
This first-in-human clinical trial with a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, dose-escalation study design is regarded as standard to test the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of KYN-5356. The study comprises 3 parts: Part 1: Single Ascending Dose study Part 2: Multiple Ascending Dose study Part 3: Food Effect study The aim of Parts 1 and 2 of the study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability following single and multiple ascending doses of KYN-5356. The secondary aim is to evaluate the pharmacokinetics (PK) of escalating single and multiple doses of KYN-5356. In Part 2, cerebrospinal fluid will be sampled to explore PK and pharmacodynamic effects of KYN-5356. The potential effect of food intake on the disposition of KYN-5356 following a single oral dose will be evaluated in Part 3. Part 3 is an open-label, randomized, 2 period, 2 sequence design.
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the effect of nutritional counseling versus no treatment in patients with schizophenia or bipolar affective disorder. The main question it aims to answer are: • Can nutritional counseling have a preventive effect on the development of cardiovascular disease in patients with schizophenia or bipolar affective disorder? Participants will meet a nutritionist at baseline to asess nutritional status, biochemical and anthropometric measurements. Then, half of the study population will receive nutritional counseling. After six weeks, the same baseline measurements will be repeated to examine any potential differences between the two groups. After the intervention, the control group will be offered the same counseling as the intervention group received during the study.
This study presents the development and validation of a unique Digital Experience Sampling Method (ESM) questionnaire specifically adapted for monitoring changes in the mental state of patients during psychiatric hospitalization. The questionnaire was carefully crafted through focus groups involving patients and clinical staff, ensuring its relevance and applicability to the unique characteristics of mental state changes in a hospitalization setting. To evaluate the validity of the ESM questionnaire, symptom severity trends obtained from the questionnaire will be compared with estimates derived from the Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS) assessment. Data will be collected from 100 subjects over a 14-day psychiatric hospitalization period. In addition to the ESM questionnaire, smartwatch sensors will monitor physiological indicators. Feasibility and patient compliance will be assessed by examining patients' willingness to use the digital ESM questionnaires and the smartwatch sensors. The study will also cross-reference self-reported sleep quality and activity levels captured in the ESM questionnaires with objective physiological indicators and nursing staff reports, providing insights into the reliability of the patient-reported data. Furthermore, the study will evaluate the impact of the ESM data on clinical decision-making by physicians throughout the 14-day psychiatric hospitalization period. Patient satisfaction and satisfaction among the multidisciplinary team with the monitoring model will also be assessed. This research underscores the potential of digital technologies to enhance patient-centered care and facilitate informed treatment decisions in psychiatric hospitalization settings.
