About this study

Official title: Managing Acute Schizophrenia, a Double Blind Comparison Between Two Atypical Antipsychotics - Olanzapine and Risperidone

The purpose of this study is to examine whether olanzapine, compared to risperidone, can provide more adequate and timely control of behavioral agitation in acutely ill subjects with schizophrenia.

Conditions

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. To determine if the efficacy of oral dose of olanzapine is greater than oral dose of risperidone in acute schizophrenia by comparing changes in agitation from baseline to 3 days post-first oral dose

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. To assess the efficacy of olanzapine compared with risperidone, in reduction of scores from baseline to 3 days as measured by the BPRS-T, PANSS-P, ACES, CGI-I and CGI-S.

  2. To assess the efficacy of olanzapine compared with risperidone, in reduction of scores from baseline to 6 weeks of acute treatment in the BPRS-T

  3. To assess the efficacy of olanzapine compared with risperidone, in reduction of scores from baseline to 6 weeks of acute treatment in the PANSS

  4. To compare the change in severity of akathasia in schizophrenic patients between olanzapine and risperidone as measured by the BAS within the 6-week treatment period

  5. To compare the change of severity of extrapyramidal symptoms within the 6 week treatment with olanzapine and risperidone, as measured by the SAS

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
