Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Presence of a Cortical (C) Type of Cataractogenic Potential Events in Participants as Assessed and Agreed by 2 Independent, Treatment-masked Ophthalmologists Using the Lens Opacities Classification System II (LOCS II ) Grading Scale
Presence of C type of cataractogenic potential event in participant was defined if any LOCS II grades of 2, 3, 4, 5 (with any grade of 0, trace,1 at randomization) assessed and agreed by 2 independent, treatment-masked ophthalmologists at any post-randomization assessment in one or both eyes. 0= no cataract; 5 is worst. There are no subscales. 0 is the best, 5 is the worst.
Presence of a Nuclear Opalescence (N) Type of Cataractogenic Potential Events in Participants as Assessed and Agreed by 2 Independent, Treatment-masked Ophthalmologists Using the LOCS II Grading Scale
Presence of N type of cataractogenic potential event in Participants was defined if any LOCS II grades of 2, 3, 4 (with grade at rand equals 0,1), or if the LOCS II grades of 3,or 4 (with grade at randomization=2) assessed and agreed by 2 independent, treatment-masked ophthalmologists at any post-randomization assessment in one or both eyes. 0 is the best, 4 is the worst.
Presence of a Posterior Subcapsular (P) Type Cataractogenic Potential Events in Participants as Assessed and Agreed by 2 Independent, Treatment-masked Ophthalmologists Using the LOCS II Grading Scale
Presence of P type of cataractogenic potential event in participant was defined if any LOCS II grades of 1, 2, 3 , 4 (with grade=0 at randomization) assessed and agreed by 2 independent, treatment-masked ophthalmologists at any post-randomization assessment in one or both eyes. 0 is the best, 4 is the worst.

Secondary Outcome Measures

Change in the Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS) Total Score
PANSS total score equals sum of the 30-items scores (range: 30-210). Each item has ( 1-7 units), 1 indicates "absent" psychosis symptom, and 7 - "extreme" symptom degree. Change in PANSS total score : total score at month 24 minus total score at randomization.Alleviation of psychotic symptoms are indicated by a negative change in PANSS total score.

Change in Personal Evaluation of Transitions in Treatment (PETiT) Total Score
PETiT total score is the sum of the 30 items of PETiT questionnaire(range:0-60) on subjects perceived well-being, adherence, tolerability, satisfaction with treatment.

Number of Relapses of Schizophrenia or Schizoaffective Disorder
Relapse is defined as a hospital stay for psychiatric symptoms or a 2-point increase from baseline in the CGI severity score. CGI-S score ranges from 0-7 with 0 = Not Assessed, 1 = Normal, not at all and 7 = Among the most extremely ill subjects.
Change in Simpson-Angus Scale (SAS) Total Score
SAS total score is the sum of the 10 individual-item scores (range:0-40), with the score for each item ranging from 0 to 4, higher scores indicate greater severity of Parkinsonian symptoms. Change : total score at month 24 minus total score at randomization. Increase in Change of total score indicates an increase in extrapyramidal motor symptoms.
Change in Barnes Akathisia Rating Scale (BARS) Global Score
BARS global score is the 4th individual-item score on the BARS scale, the Global Assessment of Akathisia, with the score ranging from 0 (no evidence of akathisia) to 5 (severe akathisia). Change : score at month 24 minus score at randomization. Increase in Change of BARS global score indicates an increase in akathisia.
Change in Abnormal Involuntary Movement Scale (AIMS) Total Score
AIMS total score is the sum of the 10 individual-item scores(range:0-40), with the score for each item ranging from 0 to 4. Change : total score at month 24 minus total score at randomization. Increase in Change of total score indicates an increase in abnormal voluntary movements. The lower score means lower intensity of abnormal voluntary Movements. 0 is best, 4 is worst. Increase in Change of total score indicates an increase in abnormal voluntary Movements.
Number of Participants With Potential Extrapyramidal Symptoms (EPS)
Number of participants with adverse events potentially associated with EPS collected by MedDRA Preferred Terms as akathisia, bradykinesia, drooling, dyskinesia, dystonia, extrapyramidal disorder, grimacing, muscle rigidity, parkinsonism, restlessness, tardive dyskinesia, tremor

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
This Phase IV, randomized, parallel-group study is designed to evaluate the cataractogenic potential of quetiapine fumarate (SEROQUEL) compared with that of a putative non-cataractogenic antipsychotic medication risperidone (RISPERDAL). This study is being conducted to fulfill the SEROQUEL Phase IV commitment regarding evaluation of cataractogenic potential.
