Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Change in Non-HDL Cholesterol Level for Patients Assigned to Stay and Patients Assigned to Switch Over 24 Weeks

    Change in non-HDL cholesterol measured at baseline and every 4 weeks for 24 weeks. The efficacy analysis corresponded to a comparison of change in non-HDL cholesterol from baseline to 24 weeks between treatment groups (stay versus switch). Repeated measurements mixed effects linear models were fit for the primary analysis.

    24 weeks

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Efficacy Failure, Defined as Psychiatric Hospitalization, a 25 Percent Increase From Baseline on the Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale or Substantial Clinical Deterioration on the Clinical Global Impressions-Change (CGI-C)

    Measured at Month 6

Study Arms (2)

1

EXPERIMENTAL

Participants will switch to aripiprazole with a cross-titration from the current antipsychotic over 3-4 weeks. Allowed final dosage range for aripiprazole was 5-30 mg/day

Drug: Aripiprazole

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Participants will continue with their current antipsychotic treatment, either olanzapine 5-20 mg/day, quetiapine 200-1200 mg/day, or risperidone 1-16 mg/day.

Drug: RisperidoneDrug: OlanzapineDrug: Quetiapine
