Effectiveness of Antipsychotic Drugs in Patients with Chronic Schizophrenia: Efficacy and Safety Outcomes of the CATIE Trial Ira D. Glick, MD Stanford University School of Medicine For Jeffrey Lieberman, MD and the CATIE Investigators Question • What to take away from CATIE Message • One piece of a puzzle Disclosures • • • • Subcontracted site PI Industry NIMH Colleagues Strengths • • • • • Design Sample Non-industry sponsored Efficacy Effectiveness Side Effects of Atypical Antipsychotics: Shift in Risk Perception Prior Safety Concerns Current Safety Concerns Diabetes Neurologic Side Effects EPS + TD Weight Gain QTc Weight GainHyper Glycemia CVD Insulin Resistance Insulin Resistance Hyperglycemia CVD Hyperlipidemia EPS QTc Dyslipidemia NIMH-sponsored research program to evaluate the effectiveness of antipsychotic medications for schizophrenia and Alzheimer’s disease in broad patient populations and “real-world” settings Primary Questions Addressed by CATIE Schizophrenia Trial • How do the second generation antipsychotics compare with a representative first generation antipsychotic? • What is the comparative effectiveness of the second generation antipsychotic drugs? • Are the second generation antipsychotics costeffective? Stroup TS et al. Schizophr Bull. 2003;29:15-31. CATIE: Broad Inclusion & Minimal Exclusion Criteria • DSM-IV schizophrenia, 18-65 years old • Not first-episode or treatment resistant • Concomitant medications, medical illnesses, substance use disorders allowed • No adjunctive antipsychotic after randomization Stroup TS et al. Schizophr Bull. 2003;29:15-31. CATIE Schizophrenia Trial Design Phase 2 Phase 1* Double-blind, random treatment assignment. Participants who discontinue Phase 1 choose either the clozapine or the ziprasidone randomization pathways OLANZAPINE CLOZAPINE (open-label) QUETIAPINE 1460 patients with SCZ Comorbidity Other meds R R OLANZAPINE, QUETIAPINE or RISPERIDONE RISPERIDONE Phase 3 Participants who discontinue Phase 2 choose one of the following open-label treatments •ARIPIPRAZOLE •CLOZAPINE •FLUPHENAZINE DECANOATE •OLANZAPINE •PERPHENAZINE ZIPRASIDONE •QUETIAPINE ZIPRASIDONE R OLANZAPINE, QUETIAPINE or RISPERIDONE •RISPERIDONE •ZIPRASIDONE PERPHENAZINE No one assigned to same drug as in Phase 1 •2 of the antipsychotics above *Phase 1A: participants with TD (N=231) do not get randomized to perphenazine; phase 1B: participants who fail perphenazine will be randomized to an atypical (olanzapine, quetiapine, or risperidone) before eligibility for phase 2.

Highlights of Phase I • High rate of discontinuation (switching) %74 – Hypothesized 60% – Consistent with practice and clinical trials • OLZ most effective – Best efficacy, worst side effects • PER comparably effective to SGAs – Very slightly higher EPS • No differential effects of SGAs on Sxs including negative Sxs – Cognition, substance abuse, violence ? • Differences in types and severity of side effects • Consistent results across multiple measures within domains Phase II-E & T Results CATIE Phase 2: Preference Pathways (for people who discontinue Phase 1) Clozapine—open-label Efficacy Pathway Hypothesized CLZ superior Randomized Olanzapine, Quetiapine, or Risperidone—one of these not taken in Phase 1 Tolerability Pathway Randomized Hypothesized ZIP superior Ziprasidone Randomization within chosen pathways Stroup TS et al.

Difficulties in Interpretation • • • • • Design Sample Dosing Stratification Statistical analysis Summary Findings • All APDs are generally effective but have various limitations as reflected by high rates of discontinuation, intolerable side effects and failure to adequately control symptoms. • In non-refractory patients olanzapine is more efficacious than the other SGAs (other than clozapine) but also was associated with significant weight gain and metabolic changes. • Intermediate potency FGAs (e.g. perphenazine, loxapine, molindone, thiothixene) are likely comparably effective to the SGAs and, in moderate doses, as well tolerated as the newer drugs. Summary Findings • There is variation in the side effects of the antipsychotic drugs which for individual patients can be substantial. • Clozapine and olanzapine produced the most weight and metabolic effects followed by quetiapine and risperidone. • Ziprasidone has the least weight and metabolic effects. Summary Findings • Treatments for persons with schizophrenia must be individualized. Doctors and patients must carefully evaluate the tradeoffs between efficacy and side effects in choosing an appropriate medication. Summary Findings • For patients whose symptoms don’t improve with initial treatment clozapine is most effective followed by olanzapine. • For patients who must switch medications due to side effects the best alternative depends on the individual side effects. Summary Findings • Perphenazine is significantly less costly than other medications and not significantly or substantially less effective. Summary Findings • The superiority of the SGAs may be most evident in the refractory end of the schizophrenia spectrum. Findings • • • • Cloz: good O and R>Q Z:? FGA=SGA:? Message • Schizophrenia difficult to treat • Pts/family/MDs switch often • Each med has differential efficacy and side effects Pearls • • • • Monotherapy Adequate dose and duration Don’t do polypharmacy Always combine with individual and family psychosocial intervention HIGHLIGHTS All antipsychotic medications are effective but have substantial limitations reflected by high discontinuation rates Olanzapine and Clozapine best efficacy but worst side effects Perphenazine surprisingly comparable to atypicals Differences in types & severity of side effects Ziprasidone has least weight and metabolic side effects What drug you should switch to depends on what treatment you have received and why you stopped it. The superiority of the SGAs may be most evident in the refractory end of the schizophrenia spectrum. Principles from CATIE Results 1. Antipsychotic medications are not equivalent or interchangeable 2. Individual history, symptoms, side effects and circumstances must guide medication choices 3. Choice of medication is vital given the complexity and heterogeneity of schizophrenia 4. CATIE does not support a blanket "fail first" policy 5. CATIE does not support severe restrictions in formularies; algorithms may be helpful, based on individual needs 6. CATIE does not mean people doing well on newer medications should be switched on older drugs 7. CATIE does not mean it is always best for the patient to stay with the current treatment Collaborators Principal Investigators Joe McEvoy Scott Stroup Diana Perkins Marvin Swartz Richard Keefe Ed Davis Bob Rosenheck Sonia Davis John Hsaio Jeffrey Lieberman 57 Site Investigators
