Brief summary
This is the long-term open label extension (OLE) of the study PRISMA-3 (NCT03160521). Those patients who complete participation in the main segment of the study (double blind) together with other clinically stable not previously enrolled (de novo patients) may opt to participate in this extension segment, where they will receive active Risperidone ISM® (75 mg or 100 mg)under open-label conditions every four weeks for approximately 12 months.
Detailed description
Patients who have completed planned participation in the double-blind segment of the study PRISMA-3 (NCT03160521) through to the end of the treatment period, may be eligible to enter into this optional long-term extension segment of the study. During this extension, open-label Risperidone ISM® (i.e., either 75 or 100 mg) will be administered to all participating patients once every 4 weeks for approximately 12 months. Patients who enter into the extension segment of the study will begin participation in the extension segment immediately upon completion of the end-of-treatment visit assessments and procedures. In addition to patients continuing from the double-blind segment of the study PRISMA-3 (rollover patients), clinically stable patients not previously enrolled in the study (de novo patients) may be eligible to enter the long-term extension segment of the study. These patients will be evaluated for eligibility at a screening visit and, if eligible, will be allocated to receive either 75 or 100 mg Risperidone ISM every 4 weeks for approximately 12 months. Approximately 100 de novo patients are planned to be enrolled in the extension segment of the study, in addition to rollover patients.
Interventions

For each symptom construct, severity is rated on a 7-point scale, with a score of 1 indicated the absence of symptoms and a score of 7 indicated extremely severe symptoms. The general psychopathology scale consists of 16 items which measure somatic concern, anxiety, guilt feelings, tension, mannerisms and posturing, depression, motor retardation, uncooperativeness, unusual thought content, disorientation, poor attention, lack of judgment and insight, disturbance of volition, poor impulse control, preoccupation and active social avoidance. PANSS General Psychopathology Subscale Score ranges from 16 (absence of symptoms) to 112 (extremely severe symptoms). Endpoint is defined as study day 356 or the last post-baseline assessment if early discontinuation. |
| Clinician Global Impression - Severity (CGI-S) Total Score Mean Change From Baseline to Endpoint | Baseline and Day 365 (or the last post-baseline assessment) | The Clinician Global Impression - Severity (CGI-S) score is a 7-point clinician-rated scale for assessing the global severity of the illness. A rating of 1 is equivalent to Normal, not at all ill and a rating of 7 is equivalent to Among the most extremely ill participants. Negative change from baseline scores indicate improvement in the severity of illness whereas higher scores mean a worse outcome. Endpoint is defined as study day 365 or the last post-baseline assessment if early discontinuation. |
| Clinician Global Impression - Improvement (CGI-I) Score | Day 365 (or the last post-baseline assessment) | The Clinical Global Impression - Improvement (CGI-I) is a single 7-point rating score total improvement, regardless of whether or not the change it is due entirely to drug treatment. Raters select one response based on the following question, Compared to your patient's condition at the beginning of treatment, how much has your patient changed? Scores are: 1, Very much improved; 2, Much improved; 3, Minimally improved; 4, No change; 5, Minimally worse; 6, Much worse; or 7, Very much worse.

Recruitment details
Patients enter the study as rollover patients from the previous double-blind (DB) study (NCT03160521), along with newly enrolled de novo patients. Rollover patients received Risperidone ISM in the OLE study at the same dose as during the DB study (75 mg or 100 mg). Patients who received placebo in the DB were assigned to receive either Risperidone ISM 75 or 100 mg during the OLE. De novo patients received either Risperidone ISM 75 or 100 mg depending on the previous oral risperidone treatment.

PANSS Positive Subscale Mean Change From Baseline to Endpoint
The PANSS consisted of three subscales that contained a total of 30 symptom constructs. For each symptom construct, severity is rated on a 7-point scale, with a score of 1 indicated the absence of symptoms and a score of 7 indicated extremely severe symptoms. In positive subscale, the 7 positive symptom constructs were: delusions, conceptual disorganization, hallucinatory behavior, excitement, grandiosity, suspiciousness/persecution, and hostility. PANSS Positive Subscale Score ranges from 7 (absence of symptoms) to 49 (extremely severe symptoms). Endpoint is defined as study day 365 or the last post-baseline assessment if early discontinuation.
Time frame: Baseline and Day 365 (or the last post-baseline assessment)
Population: The analysis was undertaken on the population of patients who received at least one dose of study drug during the OLE study.

Patients With Treatment Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs)
An Adverse event (AE) is any symptom, physical sign, syndrome, or disease that either emerges during the study (from the informed consent form signature) or, if present at screening, worsens during the study, regardless of the suspected cause of the event. The treatment-emergent AEs (TEAEs) are defined as events that are newly occurring or worsening from the time of the first dose of the intramuscular study drug.
Time frame: Up to Day 365 (or the last post-baseline assessment)
Population: The analysis was undertaken on the population of patients who received at least one dose of study drug during the OLE study.~Safety data were pooled in two comparison groups (Risperidone ISM 75 mg and Risperidone ISM 100 mg) because the sample size increased and therefore the precision around the estimates.

Patients With Treatment-related TEAEs
An Adverse event (AE) is any symptom, physical sign, syndrome, or disease that either emerges during the study (from the informed consent form signature) or, if present at screening, worsens during the study, regardless of the suspected cause of the event. The treatment-emergent AEs (TEAEs) are defined as events that are newly occurring or worsening from the time of the first dose of the intramuscular study drug. The temporal relationship of the AE with the investigational medicinal product makes causality possible, and the AE cannot be due to another cause such as other drugs, a surgical intervention, or an underlying disease
