- Adult
Who may be able to join

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 1 study testing Brexpiprazole LAI: Dose 1, Brexpiprazole LAI: Dose 2 and Brexpiprazole LAI: Dose 3 in people with Schizophrenia, run by Otsuka Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd..
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 5 inclusion and 6 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The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 28 Apr 2022. 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 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The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.
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?
Plasma concentrations of brexpiprazole (time frame: Blood Sampling for plasma drug measurement Day 1 (predose and 4, 8, 12 hours postdose), 2, 3, 5,7,9,11,13,15,17,19, 21, 25, 28, 35, 42, 49, 56, 63, 70, 77, 84, 91, 98, 112, 126, 154, 182). 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 28 Apr 2022.
