What participants receive

Study groups in NCT01495169
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
IloperidoneExperimentalPart A (dose-escalation and fixed dose): Eligible patients receive iloperidone 2mg/day (1 mg BID) on day 1, then escalated every day for up to 12days utilizing a forced titration regimen to achieve a maximum dose of 12, 16, 20 or 24 mg/day given BID. Part B (optional extension phase): Patients who successfully complete Part A of the study are eligible to continue treatment with iloperidone for an additional 26 weeks
Receives: Drug: iloperidone (oral tablet)

What is being measured

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

  1. Pharmacokinetics of iloperidone at different dose levels based on AUC (area under the plasma concentration time curve during a dosage interval) Cmax ss (maximum plasma concentration at steady state), Tmax ss (time to Cmax at steady state).

    Pharmacokinetics describes the action of a drug in the body over a period of time. Blood samples are collected to measure plasma concentrations of the study drug at different times after dosing. From the plasma concentration data, AUC, Cmax ss, and Tmax ss are calculated.

    Measured: Visit 5, 6, 7 (after at least 7 days of iloperidone treatment at the same dose level)

  2. Tolerability of iloperidone at different dose levels

    Frequency of treatment emergent adverse events, frequency of clinically notable changes from baseline in vital signs, electrocardiograms, laboratory tests, and reponses on movement disorder rating scales (Barnes Akathisia Rating Scale, Simpson-Angus Scale) and on a rating scale for suicidal thoughts and behaviors (Columbia Suicide Severity Rating Scale)

    Measured: 14 days

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. Number of Patients with Adverse Events, Serious Adverse Events or Death

    Safety and tolerability profile in open-label extension

    Measured: 26 weeks

  2. Change from baseline in Clinical Global Impression of Improvement Scale (CGI-I)

    The CGI-I is scored from 1 to 7 and assesses the overall degree of illness relative to baseline. A CGI-I rating of 4 is equivalent to "no change." Ratings less than 4 are equivalent to "improvement" and ratings of more than 4 are equivalent to "worsening."

    Measured: Baseline, then Weekly for 2 weeks, then every 2-4 weeks for 26 weeks

  3. Change from baseline in the Children's Global Asessment Scale (CGAS

    The CGAS) is a numeric scale (1 through 100) used to rate the general functioning of children; high scores indicate better functioning.

    Measured: Baseline, then Weekly for 2 weeks, then every 2-4 weeks for 26 weeks

  4. Effect of iloperidone on QT, QT beat-to-beat (QTbtb), QT corrected using the Fridericia formulat (QTcF), QT corrected using the Bazett formula (QTcB), individual based correct QT (QTcI)

    Patients wear a holter monitor for ~24 hours during the baseline period, for an additional 4 hours after the first dose, and for ~13 hours after they have been on the same dose for at least 7 days to compare how the heart beats before and after the study drug is taken. The holter monitor transmits continuous data to a computer on how the heart beats for the time when the monitor is on and is a better measurement than data collected by a traditional electrocardiogram (ECG), which provides data on a limited number of heart beats over a short period of time.

    Measured: Baseline (24 hours), Visit 3 (4-hours post initial dose), and Visit 7 (13 hours

  5. Clinically notable changes from baseline on electrocardiogram (ECG) parameters (QTcF, QTcB, QRS, PR, heart rate)

    Three ECGs are obtained for each assessment. The values are averaged for each ECG parameter (QTcF, QTcB, QRS, PR interval, heart rateare) and clinically notable changes from baseline and new or worsening heart rhythm disorders are identified

    Measured: Screening, baseline, 5x over 2 weeks, then every 2-4 weeks for 26 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing iloperidone (oral tablet) in people with Safety and Tolerability of Iloperidone, run by Vanda Pharmaceuticals at 10 sites in United States.

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 5 inclusion and 7 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 13 Jun 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 10 sites in United States. 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. 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 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

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?

Pharmacokinetics of iloperidone at different dose levels based on AUC (area under the plasma concentration time curve during a dosage interval) Cmax ss (maximum plasma concentration at steady state), Tmax ss (time to Cmax at steady state). (time frame: Visit 5, 6, 7 (after at least 7 days of iloperidone treatment at the same dose level)). 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?
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 13 Jun 2016.
