Trial Outcomes & Findings for Fixed-dose Safety and Efficacy Study of Asenapine for the Treatment of Acute Manic or Mixed Episode in Bipolar 1 Disorder (P05691) (NCT NCT00764478)

NCT ID: NCT00764478

Last Updated: 2024-06-18

Results Overview

Y-MRS consists of responses to the following 11 items: elevated mood, increased motor activity energy, sexual interest, sleep, language-thought disorder, appearance, insight, irritability, speech - rate and amount, content and disruptive-aggressive behavior. The scores from the 11 items are summed to give a total score ranging from 0 to 60, with a higher score indicating greater severity of symptoms. The analysis is based on a mixed model repeated measures (MMRM) model. An improvement in symptoms is represented by change from baseline values that are negative.

The MADRS measures depression and consists of 10 items, each rated on a scale from 0 to 6. The MADRS total score sums the scores from the 10 items, ranging from 0 to 60, with a higher numeric rating implying a greater degree of symptom severity. Missing data were imputed by LOCF. An improvement in symptoms is represented by change from baseline values that are negative.

The CGI-BP-I overall is a score on a 7-point scale for assessing the change from preceding phase of overall symptoms of bipolar disorder during the treatment of an acute episode or in longer term illness prophylaxis. Compared to the baseline, the CGI-BP-I overall score ranges from 1 = very much improved since initiating treatment, to 7 = very much worse since initiating treatment. Missing data were imputed by LOCF. A CGI-BP-I responder had a score of 3 (minimally improved) or lower.

Population: Randomized participants who received at least one dose of trial medication and had at least one post-baseline measurement, and had evaluable post-baseline measurement at timepoint.

The CGI-BP-I depression is a score on a 7-point scale for assessing the change from preceding phase of depression symptoms of bipolar disorder during the treatment of an acute episode or in longer term illness prophylaxis. Compared to the baseline, the CGI-BP-I depression score ranges from 1 = very much improved since initiating treatment, to 7 = very much worse since initiating treatment. Missing data were imputed by LOCF. A CGI-BP-I responder had a score of 3 (minimally improved) or lower.

Population: Randomized participants who received at least one dose of trial medication and had at least one baseline and post-baseline measurement.

PANSS total score measures symptoms of schizophrenia and consists of responses to 30 items: 7 items from the positive subscale (P1-P7), 7 items from the negative subscale (N1-N7) and 16 items from the general psychopathology subscale (G1-G16). Responses to each item range from 1 = absence of symptom, to 7 = most extreme symptoms. The PANSS total score sums the scores from all 30 items, and ranges from 30 to 210, with a higher score indicating greater severity of symptoms. The analysis is based on a MMRM model. An improvement in symptoms is represented by change from baseline values that are negative.
