简要总结
Upon entering into the study, patients will receive the Injection Paliperidone Palmitate extended release injectable suspension for intramuscular use 156 mg, Intra muscularly (Deltoid site) every month for a total of 5 doses at ambient temperature as per randomization schedule (either the test or reference product) in a parallel design. Investigational product administration will be done by the trained study personnel under the supervision of the investigator.
- During the Stabilization period, participants will receive monthly doses of an approved marketed version of paliperidone palmitate 156 mg (100 mg Paliperidone) extended-release injectable suspension. Details of the same will be included in IMP plan.
- During the study, participants will receive test or reference product, as per the randomization sequence, every 1 months. Each participant will receive a total of 5 doses in each period.
- Paliperidone Palmitate extended-release injectable suspension for intramuscular use 156 mg/mL (100 mg Paliperidone) (test or reference product) will be administered intramuscularly in the deltoid/gluteal muscle of each participant on Days 1, 29, 57, 85, 113, 141, 169, 197, 225, and 253.
- Decision to inject IMP in deltoid or gluteal region will be decided by investigator based on their evaluation of participants. Administration site that i.e., deltoid/gluteal will remain consistence across all the doses and both the periods.
- After the study is completed (after last PK sample collection on Day 281), patients may be continued on their current dose of Paliperidone using an approved paliperidone product as prescribed by their clinicians.
· Administration shall be performed on alternating body sides (left and right) for each injection.
