Filter by:This is a safety and efficacy study evaluating a experimental treatment for cognitive deficits in adults with schizophrenia.
This multi-center, 2-arm interventional study within different mental health care settings (psychiatry: in-patient, day-unit and out-patient, as well as psychiatric rehabilitation) evaluates a psychotherapeutic group intervention to improve stigma coping and empowerment using a psychotherapeutic module embedded in a psychoeducational group therapy.
To evaluate the pharmacokinetics of oral multiple-dose of DWCZP tablet 100mg.
This will be a multicenter, 52 week, open label study to assess the safety and tolerability of oral OPC-34712 (1 to 6 mg) as monotherapy in adult patients with schizophrenia. The study will be conducted on an outpatient basis. Enrollment into the study will be drawn from eligible subjects who have completed participation in Study 331-07- 203 and who, in the investigator's judgment, would benefit from continued treatment with oral OPC-34712.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether aripiprazole injection into the shoulder or the buttocks produces similar effects in the body
Many individuals with schizophrenia also suffer from marijuana addiction that worsens their problems related to schizophrenia. Most of the medications prescribed for schizophrenia have no effect on reducing marijuana use. Preliminary data suggests that clozapine, an atypical antipsychotic, may limit marijuana use in people diagnosed with schizophrenia, but it is not commonly used due to its side effects and is reserved for people who do not respond to other antipsychotic medications. In the proposed study, 132 individuals who are diagnosed with both schizophrenia and a cannabis use disorder will be randomized to a 12-week treatment course with either clozapine or risperidone (another commonly prescribed antipsychotic medication) to test the hypothesis that patient treated with clozapine will have decreased cannabis use as compared to patients treated with risperidone. Should this study indicate that clozapine will lessen marijuana use in persons diagnosed with schizophrenia more than risperidone, it will provide evidence needed to begin to shift clinical practice toward its use in this population.
Dopamine, a chemical in the brain, has been linked to schizophrenia for a number of years. More recently, there is evidence that certain areas affected in schizophrenia (e.g. motivation, cognition) may reflect too little dopamine, whereas symptoms like hallucinations and delusions have been linked to too much dopamine. This study is designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of giving L-dopa (Sinemet) to see if it will improve those symptoms related to too little dopamine. L-dopa has been approved for other medical conditions (e.g. Parkinson's disease) and works to increase levels of dopamine. The investigators are linking this study with neuroimaging (fMRI) which will allows us to link any changes the investigators might find in clinical symptoms with changes in the brain. This information can prove useful in better understanding the mechanisms that account for these symptoms, as well as possible new treatments. At present , treatments for these other symptoms that seem important in functional measures of outcome (i.e. deficit symptoms, including amotivation; cognitive symptoms) in schizophrenia have not proven particularly effective. It is hoped that L-dopa may provide a treatment that is more effective; going forward, this information would also be useful in drug development and future lines of investigation. 1. L-dopa will prove effective in improving deficit (also called 'primary negative' e.g. amotivation) and cognitive symptoms in schizophrenia. 2. It will be well tolerated and not increase risk of psychotic symptoms when administered in conjunction with their regular antipsychotic medications.
This multicenter, prospective, non-interventional study will evaluate the prevalence and characteristics of patients with persistent symptoms of schizophrenia and the course of their illness over 24 months.
Objective: Primary objective was to study Steady-state bioequivalence of Torrent's Quetiapine Fumarate Tablets 300 mg. Study Design: Randomized, Two-Way, Crossover, multiple Dose, and Open-Label
The purpose of this study is to study the predictive value of SensoDetect-BERA as a diagnostic tool in clinical practice for schizophrenia and bipolar disorder.
