Trial Outcomes & Findings for Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Risperidone ISM® in Patients With Acute Schizophrenia: Open Label Extension (NCT NCT03870880)

NCT ID: NCT03870880

Last Updated: 2022-03-25

Results Overview

The Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS) is a 30-item clinician-rated instrument for assessing the symptoms of schizophrenia.The 30 symptoms are rated on a 7-point scale that ranges from 1 (absent) to 7 (extreme psychopathology). The PANSS total score is the sum of all 30 PANSS items and ranges from 30 to 210, with 30 indicating absence of symptoms of schizophrenia and 210 indicating extreme ratings of all 30 symptoms. Negative change from baseline scores indicates improvements in symptoms whereas higher scores mean a worse outcome. Endpoint is defined as study day 365 or the last post-baseline assessment if early discontinuation.

Participant Flow

Patients enter the study as rollover patients from the previous double-blind (DB) study (NCT03160521), along with newly enrolled de novo patients. Rollover patients received Risperidone ISM in the OLE study at the same dose as during the DB study (75 mg or 100 mg). Patients who received placebo in the DB were assigned to receive either Risperidone ISM 75 or 100 mg during the OLE. De novo patients received either Risperidone ISM 75 or 100 mg depending on the previous oral risperidone treatment.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline and Day 365 (or the last post-baseline assessment)

Population: The analysis was undertaken on the population of patients who received at least one dose of study drug during the OLE study.

The Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS) is a 30-item clinician-rated instrument for assessing the symptoms of schizophrenia.The 30 symptoms are rated on a 7-point scale that ranges from 1 (absent) to 7 (extreme psychopathology). The PANSS total score is the sum of all 30 PANSS items and ranges from 30 to 210, with 30 indicating absence of symptoms of schizophrenia and 210 indicating extreme ratings of all 30 symptoms. Negative change from baseline scores indicates improvements in symptoms whereas higher scores mean a worse outcome. Endpoint is defined as study day 365 or the last post-baseline assessment if early discontinuation.

OTHER_PRE_SPECIFIED outcome

Timeframe: Baseline and Day 365 (or the last post-baseline assessment)

Population: The analysis was undertaken on the population of patients who received at least one dose of study drug during the OLE study.

The PANSS consisted of three subscales that contained a total of 30 symptom constructs. For each symptom construct, severity is rated on a 7-point scale, with a score of 1 indicated the absence of symptoms and a score of 7 indicated extremely severe symptoms. In positive subscale, the 7 positive symptom constructs were: delusions, conceptual disorganization, hallucinatory behavior, excitement, grandiosity, suspiciousness/persecution, and hostility. PANSS Positive Subscale Score ranges from 7 (absence of symptoms) to 49 (extremely severe symptoms). Endpoint is defined as study day 365 or the last post-baseline assessment if early discontinuation.

For each symptom construct, severity is rated on a 7-point scale, with a score of 1 indicated the absence of symptoms and a score of 7 indicated extremely severe symptoms. The general psychopathology scale consists of 16 items which measure somatic concern, anxiety, guilt feelings, tension, mannerisms and posturing, depression, motor retardation, uncooperativeness, unusual thought content, disorientation, poor attention, lack of judgment and insight, disturbance of volition, poor impulse control, preoccupation and active social avoidance. PANSS General Psychopathology Subscale Score ranges from 16 (absence of symptoms) to 112 (extremely severe symptoms).

Population: The analysis was undertaken on the population of patients who received at least one dose of study drug during the OLE study.

The Clinician Global Impression - Severity (CGI-S) score is a 7-point clinician-rated scale for assessing the global severity of the illness. 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". Negative change from baseline scores indicate improvement in the severity of illness whereas higher scores mean a worse outcome. Endpoint is defined as study day 365 or the last post-baseline assessment if early discontinuation.

Timeframe: Day 365 (or the last post-baseline assessment)

Population: The analysis was undertaken on the population of patients who received at least one dose of study drug during the OLE study.

The Clinical Global Impression - Improvement (CGI-I) is a single 7-point rating score total improvement, regardless of whether or not the change it is due entirely to drug treatment. Raters select one response based on the following question, "Compared to your patient's condition at the beginning of treatment, how much has your patient changed?" Scores are: 1, Very much improved; 2, Much improved; 3, Minimally improved; 4, No change; 5, Minimally worse; 6, Much worse; or 7, Very much worse. Endpoint is defined as study day 365 or the last post-baseline assessment if early discontinuation.

OTHER_PRE_SPECIFIED outcome

Timeframe: Day 365 (or the last post-baseline assessment)

Population: The analysis was undertaken on the population of patients who received at least one dose of study drug during the OLE study.

Overall response was defined as either PANSS total score ≥ 30% decrease from baseline, or CGI-I score of 2 (much improved) or 1 (very much improved). Endpoint is defined as study day 365 or the last post-baseline assessment if early discontinuation.

OTHER_PRE_SPECIFIED outcome

Timeframe: Up to Day 365 (or the last post-baseline assessment)

Population: The analysis was undertaken on the population of patients who received at least one dose of study drug during the OLE study. Safety data were pooled in two comparison groups (Risperidone ISM 75 mg and Risperidone ISM 100 mg) because the sample size increased and therefore the precision around the estimates.

An Adverse event (AE) is any symptom, physical sign, syndrome, or disease that either emerges during the study (from the informed consent form signature) or, if present at screening, worsens during the study, regardless of the suspected cause of the event. The treatment-emergent AEs (TEAEs) are defined as events that are newly occurring or worsening from the time of the first dose of the intramuscular study drug.

The treatment-emergent AEs (TEAEs) are defined as events that are newly occurring or worsening from the time of the first dose of the intramuscular study drug. The temporal relationship of the AE with the investigational medicinal product makes causality possible, and the AE cannot be due to another cause such as other drugs, a surgical intervention, or an underlying disease
