About this study
Official title: A Phase III, Multi-Center, Randomized, 24 Week, Double-Blind, Parallel-Group, Placebo-Controlled Study to Evaluate Efficacy and Safety of RO4917838 in Stable Patients With Persistent, Predominant Negative Symptoms of Schizophrenia Treated With Antipsychotics Followed by a 28 Week, Double-Blind Treatment Period
This multi-center, randomized, double-blind, parallel-group, placebo-controlled study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of RO4917838 in participants with persistent, predominant negative symptoms of schizophrenia. Participants, on stable treatment with antipsychotics, will be randomized to receive daily oral doses of RO4917838 or matching placebo for 56 weeks (treatment period 1 of 24 weeks and treatment period 2 of 32 weeks), followed by an optional treatment extension for up to 3 years. After 52 weeks, participants who were originally randomized to an active treatment will be randomly assigned to receive either placebo or continue on the originally assigned study treatment for 4 weeks washout period (Week 52 to Week 56) for the assessment of potential withdrawal effects in a blinded manner using participants staying on active treatment as a control. Participants initially randomized to placebo will remain on placebo. After 56 weeks, participants who were switched to placebo in the washout period will return to their blinded, active treatment arm.

A Phase 3 study testing RO4917838 in people with Schizophrenia, run by Hoffmann-La Roche at 122 sites in 14 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 3 inclusion and 4 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 26 Jun 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 122 sites in United States, Russia, Argentina, India, Romania and 9 more countries. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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?
The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.
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?
Change From Baseline in the Positive and Negative Symptoms Scales (PANSS) Negative Symptoms Factor Score at Week 24 (All-Participant Population) (time frame: Baseline, Week 24). The study lists 2 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 NCT01192867, which also lists 2 linked publications.
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?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 26 Jun 2017.
