简要总结
This is a Phase I/IIa study, aimed to assess the safety, tolerability and PK of Cariprazine Depot escalating doses of 22 mg and 44 mg as a single dose.
Following the determination of the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD), based on the safety data from cohorts 1 and 2, Cariprazine Depot dose for cohort 3 will be determined. The selection of the dose for cohort 3 will depend on both the MTD and the PK profile. Twenty four subjects diagnosed with schizophrenia will be enrolled in the 3rd cohort.
In addition, it is aimed to assess the safety, tolerability, PK and efficacy of the MTD of Cariprazine Depot, administered once every 4 weeks in a 12-week treatment period.
Primary Endpoints:
• Safety, rate of adverse events (AEs)
• PK Profile
Secondary Endpoints:
• Tolerability
• Efficacy (cohort 3 only)
Safety and tolerability outcome measures will be evaluated:
Safety:
• Adverse events.
• Vital signs.
• ECG findings.
• Laboratory parameters, etc.
Tolerability:
Incidence and severity of injection site reactions.
Efficacy:
Positive and Negative Symptom Score (PANSS), 30-item scale - a validated, multi-item inventory, composed of three subscales to evaluate positive symptoms, negative symptoms, disorganized thoughts, uncontrolled hostility/excitement, and anxiety/depression, scores range from 30 to 210, where higher values represent a worse outcome.
Clinical Global Impression-Severity scale, a validated clinician-related scale from 1 to 7, measures the patient’s current illness state and overall clinical state, where higher values represent a worse outcome. The Clinical Global Impression-Severity (CGI-S) and improvement (CGI-I) scales score will be summarized by treatment group and by visit.
