Phase 4
Completed
- Conditions
- Bipolar Disorder
- Registration Number
- NCT00094549
- Lead Sponsor
- Eli Lilly and Company
- Brief Summary
The goals of this study are:
A. To determine whether olanzapine can help patients with bipolar disorder who currently have mild to moderate mania.
B. To assess the safety of olanzapine and any side effects that might be associated with it, as well as the quality of life and functioning of patients treated with olanzapine.
C. To assess how olanzapine compares to divalproex.

Study & Design
- Study Type
- INTERVENTIONAL
- Study Design
- PARALLEL
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method To test the superiority of olanzapine compared with divalproex in improving overall manic symptomatology in patients with mild to moderate mania associated with bipolar I disorder, as measured by reductions on the Young Mania Rating Scale (YMRS) total score from baseline to the endpoint of Study Period II (3-week acute therapy phase).
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Treatment comparison for the reductions of the YMRS total score from baseline to the endpoint of Study Period II: Assess the superiority of olanzapine compared to placebo; Assess the superiority of divalproex compared to placebo; In the event that olanzapine vs. divalproex comparison is not significant, and that divalproex is superior to placebo, an assessment of non-inferiority of olanzapine compared with divalproex will be performed Assess the acute efficacy of olanzapine compared with divalproex and placebo in improving clinical symptomatology during Study Period II, using several measures: Rate of response, with response defined as reduction of 50% or more in the YMRS total score at the endpoint of Study Period II; Time to response, with time to response defined as the time in days from first dose at which a reduction of 50% or more in the YMRS total score is first observed given that a response is achieved at the endpoint of Study Period II; Rate of remission of mania, with remission defined as a YMRS total score of less than or equal to 12 at endpoint of Study Period II; Time to remission of mania, with time to remission defined as the time in days from first dose at which a YMRS total score of less than or equal to 12 is first observed given that remission is achieved at the endpoint of Study Period II; Reductions from baseline to endpoint of Study Period II on the Montgomery-Asberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS) total score and the Clinical Global Impressions-Bipolar Version Severity of Illness (CGI-BP Severity) score Assess the longer-term efficacy of olanzapine compared with divalproex during Study Period III, using several measures: Reductions in the YMRS, MADRS, and CGI-BP scores from the endpoint of Study Period II to the endpoint of Study Period III; Rate of failure to maintain response during Study Period III, as measured by a return to a YMRS total score greater than or equal to 20 AND/OR hospitalization due to deterioration in clinical symptoms of mania at any Study Period III visit, among patients who had achieved response by the endpoint of Study Period II; Time to failure to maintain response during Study Period III, as measured by the time in days from the endpoint of Study Period II to a return to a YMRS total score greater than or equal to 20 AND/OR hospitalization due to deterioration in clinical symptoms of mania, among patients who had achieved response by the endpoint of Study Period II; Rate of relapse of mania, where relapse is defined as achieving a YMRS total score greater than or equal to 15 AND/OR hospitalization due to deterioration in clinical symptoms of mania, at any Study Period III visit, among patients who had achieved remission at the endpoint of Study Period II; Time to relapse of mania, as measured by the time in days from the endpoint of Study Period II to a return to a YMRS total score greater than or equal to 15 AND/OR hospitalization due to deterioration in clinical symptoms of mania, among patients who had achieved remission at the endpoint of Study Period II Assess the Treatment by Subgroup interaction of Manic vs. Mixed, as defined by DSM-IV (as assessed by the Clinician's Version of the Structured Clinical Interview for DSM-IV [SCID-CV]), during both Study Period II and Study Period III for efficacy variables of YMRS and CGI-BP Assess the rate of switch to a depressive episode in patients not depressed at baseline (MADRS score less than or equal to 12, with a depressive episode defined as a MADRS score greater than or equal to 16 OR hospitalization due to deterioration in clinical symptoms of depression Assess the safety of olanzapine compared with divalproex and placebo during Study Period II, and to assess the safety of olanzapine compared with divalproex during Study Period III; Safety evaluations will include assessment of treatment-emergent adverse events, vital signs and weight, laboratory evaluations, electrocardiograms (ECGs), and extrapyramidal symptoms as assessed using the Barnes Akathisia Scale (Barnes), Abnormal Involuntary Movement Scale (AIMS), and Simpson-Angus Scale Evaluate functional status and health-related quality of life associated with olanzapine compared with divalproex as measured by change from baseline to endpoints of Study Period II and Study Period III in the Medical Outcomes Study 36-Item Short Form Health Survey (SF-36)total score and subscale total scores Evaluate the level of health resource utilization and resource utilization costs associated with olanzapine compared with divalproex during Study Periods II and III (up to 12 weeks of therapy) using the Resource Utilization Assess the rate of hospitalization of patients on olanzapine compared with patients on divalproex during Study Periods II and III (up to 12 weeks of therapy) using the Hospitalization Inventory Evaluate psychosocial outcomes associated with olanzapine compared with divalproex as measured by change from baseline to endpoints of Study Period II and Study Period III on the Streamlined Longitudinal Interview Clinical Evaluation from the Longitudinal Interval Follow-up Evaluation (SLICE/LIFE)
