Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Cmax-ss-Maximum concentration over the steady state dosing interval. AUC0-Ï?: Area under the blood concentration â?? time curve over the steady state dosing interval.Timepoint: Venous blood samples 4 mL will be withdrawn 5 minutes prior to dosing on Day 12, 13 and 14 in Period I and Day 26, 27 and 28 Period II to confirm steady state condition. Day 1 predose sample will be collected to confirm that patients are on stable dose of Cariprazine. Venous blood samples 4 mL will be withdrawn on Day 14 and 28 at 0.50, 1.00, 1.50, 2.00, 2.50, 3.00, 3.50, 4.00, 4.50, 5.00, 5.50, 6.00, 7.00, 8.00, 10.00, 12.00, 16.00 and 24.00 hours post drug administration.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Cmin-ss: Minimum concentration over the steady state dosing interval. Cavg-ss: Average concentration over the steady state dosing interval. Percentage fluctuation: [Cmax-ss â?? Cmin-ss/ Cavg-ss] X 100 Tmax-ss: Time of maximum measured blood concentration over the steady state dosing interval. Cpd (pre-dose concentration)-Pre-dose concentrations determined before a dose at steady state. Swing: [Cmax-ss-Cmin-ss/ Cmin-ss] Timepoint: Venous blood samples 4 mL will be withdrawn 5 minutes prior to dosing on Day 12, 13 and 14 in Period I and Day 26, 27 and 28 Period II to confirm steady state condition. Day 1 predose sample will be collected to confirm that patients are on stable dose of Cariprazine.
