NCT ID: NCT00280566

Last Updated: 2021-03-25

Results Overview

Time to Intervention for Mood Episode (TIME) while on randomized drug after at least 8 weeks of symptom reduction on open-label ziprasidone plus mood stabilizer. Mood episode considered to have occurred and subject discontinued if one or more of the following: Investigator (INV) decides discontinuation is in best interest of subject; loss of effect and/or change to treatment regimen (INV judgment); subject hospitalized for disease under study; Mania Rating Scale (MRS) and/or Montgomery-Asberg Rating Scale (MADRS) rating is ≥18 for 2 consecutive visits scheduled no more than 10 days apart.

Participant Flow

Trial intended to be outpatient trial. Patients hospitalized at the screening visit due to disease under study were to be stable enough for outpatient status within approximately 5 days.

Period 1:open label stabilization (ziprasidone plus lithium or valproic acid mood stabilizer). Period 2:subjects stabilized for 8 weeks randomized to blinded treatment (ziprasidone plus mood stabilizer or placebo plus mood stabilizer). 241 completed Period 1, 238 summarized in Period 2: 1 subject not randomized to Period 2, 2 excluded as per note.

Period 1 Open Label Ziprasidone
40 - 80 milligram (mg) ziprasidone twice/day (BID) plus mood stabilizer. Dose adjusted on basis of toleration and efficacy.
Ziprasidone
Double-blind, randomized ziprasidone at the dose level received during the last 4 weeks of Open Label Period.
Placebo
Double-blind,randomized to placebo plus mood stabilizer. Subjects were tapered off ziprasidone onto placebo by decreasing 20 mg BID every 2 days during the first week of Period 2

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Period 2: 24 weeks or time of early termination

Population: Intent to Treat (ITT):Subjects took at least 1 dose double blind medication and had at least 1 post randomization observation. Double Blind Period followed at least 8 weeks open-label ziprasidone plus mood stabilizer; 25 out of 127 and 36 out of 111 subjects had an intervention for a mood episode.

Time to Intervention for Mood Episode (TIME) while on randomized drug after at least 8 weeks of symptom reduction on open-label ziprasidone plus mood stabilizer. Mood episode considered to have occurred and subject discontinued if one or more of the following: Investigator (INV) decides discontinuation is in best interest of subject; loss of effect and/or change to treatment regimen (INV judgment); subject hospitalized for disease under study; Mania Rating Scale (MRS) and/or Montgomery-Asberg Rating Scale (MADRS) rating is ≥18 for 2 consecutive visits scheduled no more than 10 days apart.

Population: Intent to Treat (ITT); (n) = number of subjects with analyzable data at observation for ziprasidone and placebo, respectively.

Period 2 Baseline = last observation in Period 1 to the start of Period 2. MRS is 11-item scale to measure mania; derived from Schedule for Affective Disorders and Schizophrenia-Change Behavior (SADS-CB). Subscales: Manic Syndrome (elevated mood, less need for sleep, excessive energy and activity, grandiosity), Behavior and Ideation (irritability, motor hyperactivity, accelerated speech, racing thoughts, poor judgment), and Impaired Insight. Racing thoughts range=0 to 2 (highest level of abnormal=2); all other items 0 to 5 (highest level of abnormal=5). Higher score = greater abnormality.
