About this study
Official title: Risperidone in the Prevention of Relapse: a Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled Trial in Children and Adolescents With Conduct and Other Disruptive Behavior Disorders.
The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of risperidone as maintenance therapy to prevent symptoms of relapse in children and adolescents with conduct and other disruptive behavior disorders, who initially responded well to treatment.
Read the detailed description
This is a randomized, double-blind study to compare an oral formulation of risperidone with placebo when taken daily over 24 weeks by children and adolescents with conduct and other disruptive behavior disorders. Patients who do not respond to treatment after an initial 6-week open-label phase, or do not show continued response after 12 weeks, must leave the trial and will not enter into the 24-week double-blind phase. The principal measure of efficacy is the time to symptom relapse. Relapse is assessed by changes in following measures: the Conduct Problem subscale of the Nisonger Child Behavior Rating Form (N-CBRF), a measure of symptoms of conduct and other disruptive behavior disorders and Clinical Global Impression-Severity of Illness (CGI-Severity), and a measure of overall severity of illness. Efficacy assessment also includes Clinical Global Impression-Change (CGI-C), an assessment of improvement, and Visual Analogue Scale for the most troublesome symptom (VAS-MS), which is a scale ranging from not troublesome to extremely troublesome, and Children's Global Assessment Scale (C-GAS), which is an assessment of overall functioning. Safety evaluations include incidence of adverse events, physical examinations, laboratory tests (biochemistry, hematology, and urinalysis), and electrocardiograms (ECGs). The study hypothesis is that daily treatment with an oral formulation of risperidone, compared with placebo, will result in a clinically significant difference in time to relapse, and is well tolerated by children and adolescents with conduct and other disruptive behavior disorders. Oral risperidone solution (1milligram[mg]/milliliter [ml]), daily for 36 weeks. Patients weighing at least 50 kilograms start at 0.5 ml/day and may increase up to.1.5 ml/day. Patients under 50kg start at 0.25ml/day and may increase to 0.75ml/day (maximum).

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 3 study testing risperidone in people with Attention Deficit and Disruptive Behavior Disorders, run by Johnson & Johnson Pharmaceutical Research & Development, L.L.C..
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 10 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 8 Jun 2011. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
What does this phase mean?
Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
Are results available for this study?
The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Time from start of double-blind phase to relapse, using N-CBRF and CGI assessments.. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 8 Jun 2011.
