What participants receive

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

  • LurasidoneDrug

    Lurasidone was oral administrated with a meal or within 30 min after eating in the evening. The maintenance dose of olanzapine from Day 0 to Day 6, than tapered until discontinuation from Day 7 to Day 27. Lurasidone initiated with 40mg/d on Day 0, maintained until Day 13, with a flexible dose (40-80mg/d, qd) from Day 28 to Day 111.

What is being measured

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

  1. Mean weight change

    Changes in body weight at the end of treatment compared to baseline

    Measured: from baseline to week 16

Secondary outcomes (10)
  1. Change in Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS) scores

    Change in PANSS scores at the end of treatment compared to baseline.

    Measured: from baseline to week 16

  2. Change in the Clinical Global Impressions-Severity (CGI-S) scores

    Change in CGI-S scores at the end of treatment compared to baseline.

    Measured: from baseline to week 16

  3. Change in 12-Item Short Form Survey (SF-12) scores

    Change in SF-12 scores at the end of treatment compared to baseline

    Measured: from baseline to week 16

  4. Change in waist circumference

    Change in waist circumference at the end of treatment compared to baseline. Wrap the tape around 0.5 to 1.0 cm above the belly button, and measure the circumference.Obese patients wrap a tape measure around the widest part of their waist.

    Measured: from baseline to week 16

  5. Change in the serum prolactin (PRL)

    Change in PRL at the end of treatment compared to baseline.

    Measured: from baseline to week 16

  6. Change in Calgary Depression Scale for Schizophrenia (CDSS) scores

    Change in CDSS scores at the end of treatment compared to baseline.

    Measured: from baseline to week 16

  7. Change in fasting lipids

    Change in fasting lipids(total cholesterol, triglycerides, high density liptein cholesterol, low density lipoprotein, Non-high density liptein cholesterol) at the end of treatment compared to baseline.

    Measured: from baseline to week 16

  8. Change in fasting plasma glucose

    Change in fasting plasma glucose at the end of treatment compared to baseline.

    Measured: from baseline to week 16

  9. Change in hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c)

    Change in HbA1c at the end of treatment compared to baseline.

    Measured: from baseline to week 16

  10. Change in the Epworth Sleepiness Scale

    Change in the Epworth sleepiness scale at the end of treatment compared to baseline. A score of 10 or greater raises concern.

    Measured: from baseline to week 16

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Lurasidone in people with Schizophrenia, run by Marubeni Pharmaceuticals (Suzhou) Co., Ltd. at 1 site in China.

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 9 inclusion and 20 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 19 Apr 2024. 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 China. 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. 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 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

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 stopped early (reason given: Company's business decision). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Mean weight change (time frame: from baseline to week 16). 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 19 Apr 2024.
