| Trial ID | Title | Status | Sponsor | Phase | Start Date | Summary |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| NCT00009204 ↗ | Serotonergic Pharmacotherapy for Agitation of Dementia | Completed | National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) | Phase 3 | 1995-09-01 | This study is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, fixed dose study currently being conducted on two geropsychiatric units at Western Psychiatric Institute and Clinic. It seeks to evaluate the short-term safety and efficacy of citalopram and perphenazine in the treatment of 112 patients suffering from behavioral disturbances associated with dementia. Findings from this research may directly lead to improved acute pharmacotherapy for psychosis and behavioral problems in patients diagnosed with dementia. Improved treatment of behavioral complications with reduced side effects would reduce excess disability in patients diagnosed with dementia, allowing them to be maintained in the community for greater periods of time. |

| NCT00014001 ↗ | CATIE- Schizophrenia Trial | Completed | National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) | Phase 4 | 2000-12-01 | The CATIE Schizophrenia Trial is part of the Clinical Antipsychotic Trials of Intervention Effectiveness (CATIE) Project. The schizophrenia trial is being conducted to determine the long-term effects and usefulness of antipsychotic medications in persons with schizophrenia. It is designed for people with schizophrenia who may benefit from a medication change. The study involves the newer atypical antipsychotics (olanzapine, quetiapine, risperidone, clozapine, and ziprasidone)and the typical antipsychotics (perphenazine and fluphenazine decanoate). All participants will receive an initial comprehensive medical and psychiatric evaluation and will be closely followed throughout the study. For most participants the study will last up to 18 months. Everyone in the study will be offered an educational program about schizophrenia and family members will be encouraged to participate. |
| NCT00190021 ↗ | Donepezil Treatment of Psychotic Symptoms in Dementia Patients | Unknown status | Beersheva Mental Health Center | Phase 3 | 1969-12-31 | Conventional psychotropic medications may be used to treat behavioral disturbances and psychotic symptoms in patients with dementia and they are the drugs of choice for treating delusions and hallucinations. However the sensitivity to side effects in these patients often restricts the use of these agents (2, 3). Although, atypical antipsychotics have some advantages compared with conventional neuroleptics, they also are associated with side effects (5, 6). Cholinesterase inhibitors (ChEIs) enhance neuronal transmission by increasing the availability of acetylcholine in muscarinic and nicotinic receptors. According to findings of some researchers ChEIs have psychotropic effects and may play an important role in controlling neuropsychiatric and behavioral disturbances in patients with Alzheimer's disease (7-10). These agents may also contribute to the management of other disorders with cholinergic system abnormalities and neuropsychiatric symptoms such as visual hallucinations (11). Donepezil is a piperidine-based reversible, noncompetitive ChEI, which is indicated in the management of patients with Alzheimer's disease of mild to moderate severity (12-14). Preliminary observations suggest the possible value of ChEIs in the amelioration of psychotic symptoms in patients with dementia of the Alzheimer's type (DAT), dementia with Lewy bodies and patients suffering from Parkinson's disease (11-18). The results of our study (18) indicate that the addition of donepezil to perphenazine resulted in qualitatively superior clinical gains compared to higher doses of neuroleptic therapy without donepezil. The finding of the pilot study although impressive, stem from data regarding a rather small sample. The present (second) phase of the study will include a larger sample of patients. We now intend to examine 80 inpatients, aged 65-90 years old, suffering from DAT. |
| NCT00480246 ↗ | A Positron Emission Tomography (PET) Study to Assess the Degree of Dopamine-2 (D2) Receptor Occupancy in the Human Brain After Single Doses of BL-1020 or Perphenazine in Healthy Male Subjects Using [11C]Raclopride as PET Tracer | Completed | BioLineRx, Ltd. | Phase 1 | 2007-05-01 | This is a single dose, open-label, 2-panel (Parts A and B) PET study investigating the degree of occupancy of dopamine 2 receptors (D2_RO) in the human brain after single oral doses of BL-1020 or Perphenazine (Trilafon®, hereafter called Perphenazine) in healthy male subjects. In Part A the D2_RO is investigated for the study compound BL-1020 and in Part B the D2_RO of BL-1020 is compared to the D2_RO of Perphenazine, a reference compound. |
