NCT01878513

Brief Summary

The aim of the study is to examine whether determining treatment strategies based upon Cytochrome P450 2D6 (CYP2D6) genotype will improve drug response rates and clinical outcome in patients with psychosis. The investigators predict that prospectively testing CYP2D6 genotype and using this information to treat psychotic patients with risperidone will improve clinical outcomes. Specifically, CYP2D6 poor metabolizers who are treated with low dose and slow titration of risperidone will do better than those who are treated with usual dose and titration approach in terms of rates of side effects and clinical improvement.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Efficacy

    Scores on: 1. Schedule for Assessment of Negative Symptoms (SANS) 2. Brief Psychiatric Rating Scale (BPRS) 3. Global Impression - Improvement scale (CGI-I)

    6 weeks or discharge up to 6 weeks

Study Arms (3)

Low-dose-titration condition

EXPERIMENTAL

Poor and intermediate CYP2D6 metabolizers will be randomized to either low-dose-titration condition or treatment-as-usual condition. In the low-dose-titration condition, patients will be treated with risperidone 0.5mg bid for 5 days, then 1mg bid for 5 days, which may be increased to 1.5mg bid for another 5 days.

Drug: risperidone

Treatment-as-usual condition

EXPERIMENTAL

Poor and intermediate CYP2D6 metabolizers will be randomized to either low-dose-titration condition or treatment-as-usual condition. In the treatment-as-usual condition, patients will be treated with risperidone 1mg bid for 5 days, then 2mg bid for 5 days, which may be increased to 3mg bid for another 5 days.

Drug: risperidone

Open-label treatment-as-usual condition

EXPERIMENTAL

Extensive and ultrarapid CYP2D6 metabolizers will be treated open-label in the treatment-as-usual condition. Patients will be treated with risperidone 1mg bid for 5 days, then 2mg bid for 5 days, which may be increased to 3mg bid for another 5 days.

Drug: risperidone

Interventions

3 levels of dosing dependent on which condition a patient is assigned to.
