Brief summary

A Randomized, Double-blinded, Double-dummy, Parallel-controlled and Multicenter Clinical trial to Investigate Blonanserin in Treatment of Schizophrenia when compared with Risperidone

Detailed description

A Randomized, Double-blinded, Double-dummy, Parallel-controlled and Multicenter Clinical trial to Investigate Blonanserin in Treatment of Schizophrenia when compared with Risperidone Trial drugs: * Blonanserin group: Blonanserin tablets+Risperidone mimetic tablets * Risperidone group: Risperidone tablets+Blonanserin mimetic tablets Objectives of Study : To evaluate the efficacy and safety of Blonanserin in treating schizophrenia

Interventions

Blonanserin tablets: 8 - 24mg/day; twice daily after breakfast and dinner; in the meantime, the placebo and positive drug were taken in whole tablets. When the morning and evening doses could not be administered equally, the evening dose should be greater than the morning dose. The interval between 2 dose escalations should not be shorter than 3 days.

DRUGRisperidone

Risperidone tablets: 2 - 6mg/day; twice daily after breakfast and dinner; in the meantime, the placebo and positive drug were taken in whole tablets. When the morning and evening doses could not be administered equally, the evening dose should be greater than the morning dose. The interval between 2 dose escalations should not be shorter than 3 days.

Change From Baseline in PANSS(Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale) Total Score at Week 8

Mean change in Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale total score from baseline to Week 8 at the end of treatment. PANSS is an interview-based measure of the severity of psychopathology in adults with psychotic disorders. It have 30 evaluation items, which include 7 positive sub-scale, 7 negative sub-scale and 16 general psychopathology sub-scale on a score of 1 to 7. The total score is the sum of the 30 scale items. The minimum score is 30 and the maximum score is 210. Patient with PANSS total scores\<70 is the normal,but the scores\>120 is more serious.Change=(Week 8 Score - Baseline score)

Time frame: From baseline to the end of study、week 8(day 56)or before other antipsychotic taken.

Population: 267 subjects in participant flow, 3 subjects randomized and not treated, 2 subjects does not have baseline PANSS scale, 1 subject take Blonanserin, which randomized to Risperidone group and no PANSS scale collected after first dose. Those 6 subjects excluded from Baseline Population. The Baseline population have 261 subjects.

Comparison: ANCOVA was employed to compare the changes of PANSS scores at week 8 relative to the baseline in these 2 groups. Least Squares Means for the differences in changes between the 2 groups (μ blonanserin - μ risperidone) and the two-sided 95% Confidence Interval were calculated in accordance with the main model.~H0: Compared with risperidone, blonanserin reduced more than 7.0 in mean change in PANSS total score from baseline at week 8 of treatment (μ blonanserin-μ risperidone\> 7.0).p-value: <0.0595% CI: [-0.36, 7.75]ANCOVA
