Trial Outcomes & Findings for Safety and Efficacy Study of Paliperidone Extended Release (ER) Among Thai Schizophrenia Participants (NCT NCT01387542)

NCT ID: NCT01387542

Last Updated: 2013-03-05

Results Overview

The CGI-S rating scale is a 7 point global assessment that measures the clinician's impression of the severity of illness exhibited by a participant. A rating of 1 is equivalent to "Normal, not at all ill" and a rating of 7 is equivalent to "Among the most extremely ill participants". Higher scores indicate worsening .

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline, Week 2

Population: Intent-To-Treat (ITT) population included participants who received at least 1 dose of study medication and had at least one post-baseline efficacy evaluation.

The PSP scale assesses degree of a participant's dysfunction within 4 domains of behavior: socially useful activities, personal and social relationships, self-care, and disturbing and aggressive behavior. Score ranges from 1 to 100, divided into 10 equal intervals to rate degree of difficulty (1, absent to 6, very severe) in each of the 4 domains. Based on 4 domains there will be 1 total score. Participants with score of 71 to 100 have mild degree of difficulty; from 31 to 70, varying degrees of disability; less than or equal to 30, functioning so poorly as to require intensive supervision.
