简要总结
The main question this study is trying to answer is whether lumateperone, an FDA-approved antipsychotic drug, can help reduce possible side effects of clozapine, such as weight gain and elevated levels of sugar and bad cholesterol.
Participants will be randomly assigned to either take lumateperone (Caplyta) or a placebo for 12 weeks, in addition to their regularly prescribed clozapine. During their participation, patients will answer questions about their psychiatric and daily functioning, have blood drawn, and have their body composition analyzed (similar to stepping on a scale).
详细描述
This is a 12-week study in which we investigate how adjunctive lumateperone affects lipid particle size and body composition in clozapine-treated patients with schizophrenia; in addition, we will investigate if lumateperone improves insomnia. Outcome measures will record a variety of assessments related to participants' psychiatric symptoms, psychosocial functioning, and biological outcomes.

时间窗: Week 0, Week 6, and Week 12
Participant Body Mass Index will be measured by standard methods
Waist Circumference
时间窗: Week 0, Week 6, and Week 12
Participant Waist Circumference will be measured by standard methods
Body Composition - Fat Mass
时间窗: Week 0 and Week 12
Body Composition will be assessed using the research-grade medical body composition analyzer Seca 515/514. Fat mass will be measured in grams.
