Active clinical trials for "Schizophrenia"

To evaluate the pharmacokinetic (PK) characteristics after multiple oral administration of 40 mg lurasidone in healthy Chinese subjects. To evaluate the safety and tolerance after multiple oral administration of 40 mg lurasidone in healthy Chinese subjects.

The investigators programme of research will evaluate an existing physical health care screening intervention with the aim of helping Community Psychiatric Nurses (CPN) to improve the physical health wellbeing of people with a SMI. This pilot clustered randomised controlled trial aims to establish the potential efficacy and acceptability of the Chinese Health Improvement Profile (CHIP) in improving the physical health of people with severe mental illness.

Impairments in plasticity and working memory in schizophrenia have been hypothesized to reflect dysfunction at the N-methyl-D-aspartate glutamate receptor (NMDAR). However, the specific mechanisms through which the NMDAR is involved in working memory versus plasticity differ. Towards gaining a deeper understanding of how NMDAR signaling relates to individual cognitive functions in healthy adults and patients with schizophrenia, the investigators used a single dose of d-cycloserine (DCS) as an experimental probe to examine the effects of enhancing NMDAR signaling on plasticity versus working memory in healthy adults and individuals with schizophrenia.

This study will evaluate the effect of 8 doses of intranasal oxytocin or placebo on two proposed measures of target engagement in brain. The targets are (1) the suppression of a particular wave form (mu) on the electroencephalogram (EEG) while subjects observe a socially relevant form of motion and (2) pupil dilation will subjects identify faces showing different emotions.

The main objective of this study was to assess subjective experiences related to secondary negative symptoms and cognitive performance in healthy volunteers in response to multiple doses of paliperidone ER and risperidone in a double-blind, placebo-controlled trial. Adverse events caused by these drugs were also evaluated.

To evaluate the safety and tolerability of multiple, ascending doses of PF-04958242 administered orally to psychiatrically stable subjects with schizophrenia receiving antipsychotic and adjunctive medication.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the drug-drug interaction effect between Lithium and Lurasidone HCl.

The objective of this study is to investigate whether JNJ-40411813 versus placebo reduces psychosis-like symptoms, induced by infusion of a low dose of ketamine. Effects of JNJ-40411813 on ketamine-induced symptoms will be evaluated about 3 hours after a single oral dose when the concentration of JNJ-40411813 in the blood is at its maximum and up to 24 hours after dose administration to assess the duration of a potential JNJ-40411813 effect.

The objective of this study is to investigate the relative contributions of nicotine replacement and sensorimotor replacement (i.e., smoking denicotinized cigarettes) on abstinence-induced smoking urges, withdrawal-related negative affect, psychiatric symptoms, cognitive task performance and 90-min ad libitum usual-brand smoking behavior in smokers with schizophrenia and non-psychiatric smokers.

The first aim of this study is to determine whether a brain reward center (BRC) deficiency in patients with schizophrenia (SCZ) and cannabis use disorder (CUD) will be normalized when patients are given cannabis or dronabinol. The second aim will serve to further assess the effects of dronabinol on symptoms and medication side effects in this population.
