NCT00205660

Brief Summary

This proposal aims to use well-validated methodologies such as dual energy x-ray absorptiometry (DEXA), frequently sampled oral glucose tolerance tests (fsOGTTs), and hyperinsulinemic euglycemic clamps to characterize the metabolic effects of 12 weeks of aripiprazole treatment following chronic pretreatment with olanzapine, quetiapine, risperidone or ziprasidone. We hypothesize that switching to aripiprazole treatment will induce improvements in total body adiposity, inflammation (e.g., high sensitivity C-reactive protein \[hsCRP\]), glucose metabolism (e.g., insulin sensitivity) and lipid metabolism (e.g., fasting plasma triglyceride), in comparison to chronic pretreatment with olanzapine, risperidone and quetiapine.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Change in Total Body Fat (kg).

    This study hypothesizes that switching to aripiprazole treatment will be associated with reductions in adipose tissue mass in comparison to olanzapine.

    12 Weeks

  • Change in Whole Body Sensitivity (mg/kg/Min)

    This study hypothesized that switching to aripiprazole treatment will be associated with statistically significant improvements in whole body sensitivity (mg/kg/min) in comparison to chronic pretreatment with olanzapine.
