Change in symptom severity total score from baseline (visit 2) to four-weeks (MDD)/six-weeks (SZ/BD) (visit 4). For SZ, this is measured using the Positive And Negative Syndrome Scale. For MDD and BD, Montgomery Asberg Depression Rating Scale is applied.

研究概览

简要总结

The primary objective is to compare the treatment response, expressed as mean change in symptom severity under an early-intensified pharmacological treatment to that under treatment as usual, in subjects who had a first-time treatment failure on their first-line treatment. This will be investigated in the diagnoses schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorder, schizophreniform disorder (SZ study sample), major depressive disorder (MDD study sample) and bipolar depression (bipolar disorder I/II currently in a depressive episode; BD study sample). The treatments differ between the three study sample, but the overarching goal is equal.

  • A minimum symptom severity threshold needs to be present (moderate level; more details in the protocol section 6.2) and subject needs to experience functional impairment.

排除标准

  • Being pregnant or breastfeeding.
  • Current active suicidal ideation within the last 2 weeks, defined as a score of 1 or higher on CDSS question 8, followed by an assessment by the treating clinician who determines it is not safe for the patient to participate in the study.
  • Subject meets criteria for current alcohol and/or drugs substance use disorderdependency, as confirmed by the Mini International Neuropsychiatric Interview (MINI v7.0.2).

  • Subject has failed previously on the EIPT study medication (i.e. SZ: clozapine; MDD: esketamine intranasal/(es)ketamine IV *) or the TAU treatment for BD (quetiapine) due to inefficacy. Treatment duration as ≥ 4 weeks within an efficacious dose range according to the SmPC.

  • Subject has participated in another clinical trial in which the subject received an experimental or investigational drug or agent within 30 days before visit
  • Subject currently uses more than the allowed psychotropic concomitant medication and needs to stay on this medication during the study.
  • Subject experiences any other significant disease or disorder which, in the opinion of the investigator, may either put the participants at risk because of participation in the trial, or may influence the result of the trial, or the participant’s ability to participate in the trial.
