Research Abstract |
To evaluate the efficacy and safety of aripiprazole and perospirone in Japanese patients with schizophrenia. In this 12-week, randomized, flexible-dose, open-label study, patients diagnosed with schizophrenia were randomized to receive aripiprazole (3-30mg/day, n=49) or perospirone (8-48mg/day, n=51). Both groups showed significant improvements during the study, with reductions in the total PANSS scores (Repeated measure analysis of variance, both p<0.0001). There were no significant differences in the PANSS change scores, CGI-S change scores, DIEPSS total score, BAS total score or over time between groups.
