What participants receive

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

  • PlaceboOther

    Oral daily administration from Days 1-12

  • RO5545965Drug

    Oral daily administration from Days 1-12

  • risperidoneDrug

    13 day run-in phase until 4 mg daily dose level is reached. 4 mg daily oral dose until Day 17 of study, for a total of 30 days. Dose may be increased up to 6 mg at the investigator's discretion. After study treatment, risperidone dosage may be decreased, increased or omitted at the investigator's discretion during a wash-out phase while patients return to their chronic antipsychotic treatment. Patient response during wash-out will be monitored in-house for 48 hours after the last dose of RO5545965 or placebo is administered. This in-house observation may be extended as needed by the investigator.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing RO5545965 and risperidone in people with Schizophrenia, run by Hoffmann-La Roche at 1 site in United States.

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 7 inclusion and 7 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 2 Nov 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

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?

Incidence of adverse events (time frame: Up to 10 weeks). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 2 Nov 2016.
