SPECT Investigation Of The NMDA Receptor System In Healthy Volunteers And Patients With Schizophrenia

Overview[ - collapse ][ - ]

Purpose This study was designed to compare the [123]I-CNS 1261 binding to NMDA receptor between healthy volunteers and different subgroups of schizophrenic patients. Investigation of the potential influence of antipsychotic and concomitant medication on [123I] CNS 1261 binding is also relevant.Fifteen healthy subjects (male and female of non-child bearing potential) will be recruited and 40 schizophrenic patients divided in 3 subgroups as indicated before: Subgroup a) treatment-naive, (n=10); Subgroup b) on stable treatment with risperidone (without criteria of deficit syndrome on the SDS scale, (n=15);Subgroup c) on stable treatment with risperidone fitting criteria of deficit syndrome on the SDS scale, (n=15).

Current Primary Outcome MeasuresCNS (Central Nervous System) 1261 binding differences in healthy volunteers and 3 different predefined subgroups of schizophrenic patients and in the 3 different subgroups of schizophrenic patients. [Time Frame: throughout the study]
Current Secondary Outcome MeasuresEffect of treatment with risperidone and lorazepam in inducing changes on [123]I CNS 1261 binding, and its relationship with the plasma concentration of administered drugs and with Psychopathological scales scores. [Time Frame: throughout the study]
