Brief Summary

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

The primary objective of this pragmatic clinical trial (Main Study) was to assess the difference between all-cause hospitalizations in participants using Abilify MyCite versus virtual matched controls. In addition, secondary and exploratory objectives were to assess medication adherence, healthcare utilization and costs, and patient-reported outcomes.

Detailed Description

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

This was a phase 4, open-label, prospective, pragmatic clinical trial to assess the difference between all-cause hospitalizations in participants using Abilify MyCite (for Months 1-3, then prohibited for Months 4-6) versus virtual matched controls from baseline to Day 180. Virtual matched controls were to receive treatment as usual (that is, any product other than Abilify MyCite, which was oral aripiprazole or any other product). Eligible participants entered a screening period of up to 13 days. For participants enrolling into the study, those not on aripiprazole at screening used the screening period for conversion to aripiprazole from other antipsychotics. Virtual matched controls were not to be enrolled into the study, but identified from health insurance claims data and matched to the enrolled Abilify MyCite participants at the end of the study for analysis.

After the visit at Day 180, a second, optional interventional period (up to 6 months of Abilify MyCite) could have been initiated per the joint decision of the participants with their study physician; participants in this second, optional interventional period were to have a visit at Day 360. During this second, optional interventional period, participants may have started and stopped Abilify MyCite as clinically indicated.

A parallel exploratory study that would utilize a different set of physicians and participants from the main study was planned; however, that study was never initiated.

Study Groups

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

Abilify MyCite

Participants received Abilify MyCite during Months 1-3. During Months 4-6 use of Abilify MyCite was to be prohibited. Thereafter, at Day 180, a second, optional interventional period (up to 6 months of Abilify MyCite) could have been initiated per the joint decision of the participants with their study physician.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Abilify MyCite - Digital Medicine System

Intervention Type COMBINATION_PRODUCT

The Abilify MyCite system is a drug-device combination product comprised of aripiprazole (an atypical antipsychotic) tablets embedded with a sensor that communicates with a patch (wearable sensor) and a medical software application with collected information (ingestion, mood, activity, rest) tracked and summarized for participants, healthcare providers, and potential caregivers. Abilify MyCite is intended to track drug ingestion and is indicated for the treatment of adults with schizophrenia (SCH), bipolar 1 disorder (BP1) (acute treatment of adults with manic and mixed episodes or maintenance treatment of adults), and adjunctive treatment of adults with major depressive disorder (MDD).

Aripiprazole or other oral antipsychotics

Intervention Type DRUG

For the treatment of adults with SCH, BP1 (acute treatment of adults with manic and mixed episodes or maintenance treatment of adults), and adjunctive treatment of adults with MDD.

Virtual Matched Controls

Virtual matched controls were to receive treatment as usual (that is, any product other than Abilify MyCite, which could have been oral aripiprazole or any other product) throughout the duration of the trial. Virtual matched controls were not to be enrolled into the study, but identified from health insurance claims data and matched to the enrolled Abilify MyCite participants at the end of the study for analysis.

Group Type ACTIVE_COMPARATOR

Aripiprazole or other oral antipsychotics

Intervention Type DRUG

For the treatment of adults with SCH, BP1 (acute treatment of adults with manic and mixed episodes or maintenance treatment of adults), and adjunctive treatment of adults with MDD.
