简要总结
The study will assess the use of paliperidone palmitate compared with oral antipsychotic treatment in delaying time to a protocol-defined treatment failure over 15 months, in patients diagnosed with schizophrenia who have been incarcerated.
详细描述
The primary objective of this study is to compare the efficacy of paliperidone palmitate with oral antipsychotic treatment in delaying time to a protocol-defined treatment failure over 15 months, in patients diagnosed with schizophrenia who have been incarcerated. Protocol-defined treatment failure is defined as arrest, psychiatric hospitalization, increase in psychiatric services to prevent imminent hospitalization, discontinuation of antipsychotic treatment due to inadequate efficacy, treatment supplementation with another antipsychotic due to inadequate efficacy, discontinuation of antipsychotic treatment due to safety or tolerability or completed suicide. Protocol was amended on March 15, 2011 to reflect changes in the inclusion/exclusion criteria as well as the study objectives. Patients will receive either paliperidone palmitate 78, 117, 156, or 234 mg monthly by injection for fifteen months OR oral aripiprazole, haloperidol, olanzapine, paliperidone, perphenazine, quetiapine, and risperidone at doses selected by the study doctor.

结局指标
主要结局
Time to First Treatment Failure
时间窗: From date of randomization up to Month 15
Time to first treatment failure was the time from participant randomization to the first treatment failure, which was a composite endpoint consisting of any of the following events: arrest/incarceration, psychiatric hospitalization, discontinuation of antipsychotic treatment due to safety or tolerability, treatment supplementation with another antipsychotic due to inadequate efficacy, discontinuation of antipsychotic treatment due to inadequate efficacy, increase in level of psychiatric services to prevent imminent psychiatric hospitalization, suicide. A Treatment Failure Event Monitoring Board (EMB), blinded to individual participant treatment assignment, determined the occurrence and date of the first treatment failure event.
Percentage of Participants in Each Event Category of First Treatment Failure
时间窗: From date of randomization up to Month 15
First treatment failure was a composite endpoint consisting of any of the following events: arrest/incarceration, psychiatric hospitalization, discontinuation (D/C) of antipsychotic treatment due to safety or tolerability, treatment supplementation with another antipsychotic due to inadequate efficacy, discontinuation of antipsychotic treatment due to inadequate efficacy, increase in level of psychiatric services to prevent imminent psychiatric hospitalization, suicide. A Treatment Failure Event Monitoring Board (EMB), blinded to individual participant treatment assignment, determined the occurrence and date of the first treatment failure event. Percentage of participants who experienced treatment failure due to any event and for each specific category of event were assessed.
