Summary

This trial tests Brilaroxazine, a daily pill, in patients with severe mental health issues. It aims to improve mood and reduce symptoms. The study lasts for more than a year.

Who is the study for?
Adults aged 18-65 with acute schizophrenia can join this trial. They must understand and sign a consent form, have not used certain antipsychotics recently or drugs that strongly affect the body's enzyme systems, and cannot have treatment-resistant schizophrenia, history of clozapine use, substance abuse disorders within the last six months, brain injuries affecting cognition, dementia or other CNS diseases.
What is being tested?
The study tests Brilaroxazine's safety and effectiveness against a placebo in treating acute schizophrenia. Participants will receive either 15 mg or 50 mg daily for one month followed by flexible dosing up to 52 weeks to see how well it works short-term and long-term.
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects of Brilaroxazine may include typical antipsychotic drug reactions such as drowsiness, restlessness (akathisia), weight gain, dry mouth, constipation, blurred vision or dizziness. Long-term effects are being studied.

Mechanism Of Action
Side Effect Profile
Prior Approvals
Other Research
The most common treatments for schizophrenia include antipsychotic medications, which primarily function by modulating neurotransmitter activity in the brain. First-generation antipsychotics (FGAs) mainly block dopamine D2 receptors, reducing dopamine activity to alleviate psychotic symptoms. Second-generation antipsychotics (SGAs) or atypical antipsychotics, such as risperidone, quetiapine, and olanzapine, not only block dopamine D2 receptors but also affect serotonin receptors, particularly 5-HT2A receptors. This dual action helps in managing both positive symptoms (like hallucinations and delusions) and negative symptoms (such as social withdrawal and apathy) of schizophrenia. Brilaroxazine, a serotonin-dopamine modulator, aims to balance serotonin and dopamine activity more precisely, potentially offering improved efficacy and reduced side effects. Understanding these mechanisms is crucial for schizophrenia patients as it informs the choice of medication that can best manage their symptoms with the least adverse effects.
