An Study of Paliperidone Extended-Release Tablets in the Treatment of Methamphetamine Dependence

July 11, 2017 updated by: Wei Hao

Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled Trial of Paliperidone Extended-Release Tablets for The Treatment of Methamphetamine Dependence in Chinese Patients After Detoxification

Methamphetamine substance use is common worldwide. No approved pharmacologic treatments for methamphetamine dependence exist. paliperidone are Second generation antipsychotics，and have effects of blocking dopamine2(D2) and 5-hydroxytryptamine 2A(5-HT) receptors neurotransmitters.To determine whether mirtazapine would reduce methamphetamine use among methamphetamine addicts.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Abstinent time of Methamphetamine addict
Time Frame: up to 84 days
The outcome was the confirmed abstinence during 12 weeks. Confirmed abstinence was defined as a negative urine drug test. The following aggregate measures of urine drug test results were calculated: the time-to-first positive urine test, the Treatment Effectiveness Score (TES; the sum of the number of METH-free urine samples submitted per participant ), the longest period of MA abstinence during the 84 days.
up to 84 days

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Time (day) to first psychosis relapse from baseline to 84 days
Time Frame: up to 84 days
psychosis assessement was made once a week.Psychotic symptom relapse was defined as one or more of the following: (1) hospitalization for psychotic symptoms; deliberate self-injury or violent behavior, or suicidal or homicidal ideation that was clinically significant;25% increase in PANSS total score;for patients who scored >40 at randomization, or a 10-point increase for patients who scored ≤40 at randomization for two consecutive assessments (within 1 week), and (4) increase in prespecified individual PANSS items scores (P1, P2, P3, P6, P7 and G8) to ≥5 for patients whose score was ≤3 at randomization, or to ≥6 for patients whose score was 4 at randomization for two consecutive assessments (within 1 week)
up to 84 days
Change from baseline in CGI-S scores at 84 days
Time Frame: up to 84 days
general condition assessment was made by CGI-S once a week, and calculated the total scores
up to 84 days

Time Frame: up to 84 days
Methamphetamine craving assessment was made by VAS once a week, and calculated the total scores
up to 84 days
number of treatment day which calculated from randomization to the last visiting point

Primary Completion (ACTUAL)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date.
