Trial Outcomes & Findings for MK0249 for the Treatment of Cognitive Impairment in Patients With Schizophrenia (0249-016) (NCT NCT00506077)

NCT ID: NCT00506077

Last Updated: 2015-08-03

Results Overview

The mean change from baseline after 4 weeks of treatment in total cognitive score on the BACS was calculated as a weighted average of T-scores (normalized for age) from BACS subtests including Verbal Memory, Digit Sequencing, Token Motor, Symbol Coding, Semantic Fluency, Letter Fluency, and Tower of London. The minimum and maximum values possible for this composite T-score of the change from baseline were -131 and 131, respectively. Higher values (positive changes from baseline) indicate better performance.

Participant Flow

First Patient Dosed: 11 February 2008; Last Patient Last Treatment: 08 October 2008. Six ex-U.S. study centers (3 Russia, 3 India).

At visit 1, patients were assessed using the protocol eligibility criteria. Eligible patients continued into an 8 day single-blind placebo washout/run-in period, and then were randomized at visit 3 to 1 of 2 cross-over treatment sequences.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline and 4 weeks of treatment

Population: Full Analysis Set (FAS): The FAS included all randomized patients who took at lease one dose of study medication and had at least one post-randomization efficacy measurement in either of the two treatment periods. The data as observed (DAO) approach was used to handle missing data.

The mean change from baseline after 4 weeks of treatment in total cognitive score on the BACS was calculated as a weighted average of T-scores (normalized for age) from BACS subtests including Verbal Memory, Digit Sequencing, Token Motor, Symbol Coding, Semantic Fluency, Letter Fluency, and Tower of London. The minimum and maximum values possible for this composite T-score of the change from baseline were -131 and 131, respectively. Higher values (positive changes from baseline) indicate better performance.

10 mg per day of MK-0249 were taken orally for Treatment Period 1 or Treatment Period 2 (depending on the sequence). At any time after 3 days of double-blind treatment if patients who were unable to tolerate 10 mg per day, they were allowed to titrate down to 7 mg per day and remained on 7 mg per day for the remainder of the treatment period.
Placebo
n=46 Participants
10 mg per day of matching placebo were taken orally for Treatment Period 1 or Treatment Period 2 (depending on the sequence). At any time after 3 days of double-blind treatment if patients who were unable to tolerate 10 mg per day, they were allowed to titrate down to 7 mg per day and remained on 7 mg per day for the remainder of the treatment period.

The Attention/Processing Speed Composite Score was comprised of the University of Pennsylvania's Computerized Neuropsychological Battery (CNP) Penn Continuous Performance Test (PCPT) and BACS battery Symbol Coding. The composite score was calculated as a weighted average of the T-scores (normalized for age) for each test. The minimum and maximum values possible for this composite T-score of the change from baseline were -91 and 91, respectively. Higher values (positive changes from baseline) indicate better performance.
