About this study

Official title: A 26-week, Multicenter, Open-label Phase 3b Study of the Safety and Tolerability of Quetiapine Fumarate (SEROQUEL™) Immediate-release Tablets in Daily Doses of 400 mg to 800 mg in Children and Adolescents With Bipolar I Disorder and Adolescents With Schizophrenia (Abbreviated)

The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the efficacy and safety of quetiapine fumarate (SEROQUEL) in the treatment of adolescent patients with schizophrenia and bipolar I disorder.

  • quetiapine fumarateDrug

    Also called Seroquel

    Oral dosing, flexible dosing

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Incidence and Nature of Adverse Events (AEs)

    Number of participants that had AE which occurred from first dose date to last dose date + 30 days.

    Measured: from open label to week 26+ 30 days

  2. Number of Patients Withdrawn Due to AEs.

    Number of subjects who withdrew from the study due to AEs.

    Measured: during 26 weeks of treatment

  3. Changes in Laboratory Test Results (Prolactin)

    Clinical important shift to high prolactin from open-label (OL) baseline to week 26.

    High Prolactin is defined as value >26 ug/L for female and value >20 ug/L for male.

    Measured: Duration of study participation

  4. Categorical Change From OL Baseline to Week 26 in Simpson-Angus Scale (SAS)Total Score

    Number of patients for who the total score is estimated as worse. The Simpson Angus Scale (SAS)is used to assess Parkinsonian symptoms (a type of movement disorders). The score was calculated as the sum of the 10 individual item scores. Total Score ranges from 0-40 (normal to worse). Individual item scale range from 0 to 4 (normal to worse).

    Improved define as those with a <= -1 change in SAS total score. Worsened defined as those with a >=1 change in SAS total score.

    Measured: OL baseline to week 26

  5. Categorical Change From Baseline in Barnes Akathisia Rating Scale (BARS) Global Score

    Number of patients for who the total score is estimated as worse. The Barnes Akathisia Rating Scale (BARS) global score is used to measure Akathisia (a type of movement disorders). BARS is the item 4 score from the BARS assessment. The scale is from a range 0-5 (normal to worse). Change from baseline in BARS global score increase means worse.

    Improved defined as those with a <= -1 change in BARS global score. Worsened defined as those with a >= 1 change in BARS global score.

    Measured: 26 weeks of treatment

  6. Change From Baseline in Weight

    Number with 7% or more increase (without adjustment for normal growth)

    Measured: 26 weeks of treatment

  7. Change From Baseline in Supine Pulse

    Change from OL baseline to week 26 in supine pulse (bpm)

    Measured: OL baseline to week 26

  8. Change From OL Baseline in Supine Systolic BP.

    Changes from OL baseline to the final visits in Supine systolic BP (mmHg)

    Measured: OL baseline to Week 26

  9. Change From OL Baseline in Supine Diastolic BP.

    Changes from OL baseline to the final visits in Supine diastolic BP (mmHg)

    Measured: OL baseline to Week 26

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Changes in Tanner Stage

    Category shift in Tanner stage. Number of subjects who experienced the change is presented.

    Tanner stages (I-V) was used to characterize physical development in children, adolescents, and adults. The stages was based on external primary and secondary sex characteristics, such as the size of the breasts, genitalia, and development of pubic hair. Tanner stage is considered going up when the organs grow bigger.

    Measured: Change from OL baseline to week 26 in the Tanner stage

  2. Change From Baseline in Children's Global Assessment Scale (CGAS) Score

    Children's Global Assessment Scale (CGAS) is used to rate the general functioning of children under the age of 18. It is the 100-point single-item score that was collected in the Clinical Report Form (CRF), scored from 0-100 (worse to normal).

    Measured: OL Baseline to Week 26

A Phase 3 study testing quetiapine fumarate in people with Schizophrenia and Bipolar I Disorder, run by AstraZeneca at 48 sites in 9 countries.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 8 Jan 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 5 Oct 2012). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Incidence and Nature of Adverse Events (AEs) (time frame: from open label to week 26+ 30 days). The study lists 9 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00227305, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?
