Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This study will assess the helpfulness of the integrated call center in optimizing use of the Digital Medicine System in adult subjects with Schizophrenia, Major Depressive Disorder, or Bipolar Disorder taking oral aripiprazole.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The Digital Medicine System includes a drug-device combination of aripiprazole + an ingestible event marker (IEM), a wearable sensor (skin patch), and application software to convey the level of activity and rest, and to mark events through the act of ingestion.

Physician and self-report are the most commonly used to assess medication compliance yet studies have consistently found that healthcare providers' subjective judgments of medication compliance are often inaccurate, with a tendency for practitioners to overestimate subject adherence. The sponsor's intent is to develop a system that will benefit future subjects by providing the ability to measure their medication-taking behavior in an objective manner and being able to monitor several physiologic parameters.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Aripiprazole + IEM

Subjects will receive an intervention consisting of a drug-device combination that consists of an aripiprazole tablet with a tiny sensor embedded within it referred to as an Ingestible Event Marker (IEM) . They will discontinue their normally prescribed oral aripiprazole tablets and will take the aripiprazole(2, 5, 10, 15, 20, or 30 mg) + IEM once daily for the 8-week assessment period for this trial.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Aripiprazole + IEM (Ingestible Event Marker)

Intervention Type DRUG

Oral aripiprazole (2, 5, 10, 15, 20, or 30 mg) with an ingestible event marker in a single daily dose for duration of the trial.
