About this study

Clozapine is a drug that requires regular and diligent hematological monitoring throughout its use. This follow-up is, in France, framed by a compulsory paper format of the blood count follow-up notebook for each patient. Due to the multiplicity of the different modes of transmission of the different documents necessary for compliance with the regulations for the prescription, dispensing and administration of clozapine, we decided to carry out a current inventory in the department of Loire with respect for the latter. The main objective of this study is to assess the rate of non-compliance in circuits of prescription, dispensing and administration of clozapine by sending a questionnaire on habits of prescriptions, dispensing and administration of health professionals (psychiatrists, pharmacists), and by sending a questionnaire to the patients treated by clozapine.

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.

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?

Rate of non-compliance (time frame: Month: 2). 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.
