ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryMean Relapse Free Period(Risperidone LAI Versus Quetiapine)Assessed at each visit from the moment the subject was randomized to a treatment arm (baseline visit) until the end of treatment (Week 104 or earlier)
Relapse was defined as meeting any of the predefined criteria (adapted from Csernansky et al., 2002) on 2 consecutive evaluations during treatment, 3 to 5 days apart. The relapse rate in each treatment arm was estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method.
SecondaryMean Relapse Free Period (Exploratory/Aripiprazole)Assessed at each visit from the moment the subject was randomized to a treatment arm (baseline visit) until the end of treatment (Week 104 or earlier)
As for risperidone and quetiapine, relapse was defined as meeting any of the predefined criteria (adapted from Csernansky et al., 2002) on 2 consecutive evaluations during treatment, 3 to 5 days apart. Since aripiprazole was new on the market at the time the study was conducted, this aripiprazole analysis was exploratory.
SecondaryChange From Baseline to Endpoint in Total Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS) ScoreAssessed at each visit from the moment the subject was randomized to a treatment arm (baseline visit) until the end of treatment (Week 104 or earlier)
The neuropsychiatric symptoms of schizophrenia were assessed by means of the 30-item PANSS scale. The PANSS scale provides a total score (sum of the scores of all 30 items) and scores for 3 subscales, i.e., the positive subscale (7 items), the negative subscale (7 items), and the general psychopathology subscale (16 items). Each item of the scale is to be scored on a scale of 1 (absent) to 7 (extreme).
SecondaryChange From Baseline to Endpoint in Clinical Global Impression Scale (CGI) ScoreAssessed at each visit from the moment the subject was randomized to a treatment arm (baseline visit) until the end of treatment (Month 24 or earlier)
The 7-point CGI scale of Severity (CGI-S) was used to assess the severity of a subject's psychotic condition (0= normal, not at all ill, 1= borderline, etc. and 6= among the most extremely ill subjects).
SecondaryChange From Baseline to Endpoint in Short-Form Health Survey 12 (SF-12) ScoresAssessed at the moment the subject was randomized to a treatment arm (baseline visit) and after 1, 3, 6, 12, 18, and 24 months of treatment
Quality of life was assessed by means of the 12-item SF-12® survey. Two parameters, i.e., PCS (physical component summary) and MCS (mental component summary) were calculated. Both components scores range from 0 to 100 with higher scores indicating better QOL.
