Brief Summary
|
Bipolar disorder is a complex psychiatric illness characterized by the presence of alternating episodes of mania or hypomania and depression. While both manic and depressive episodes can have significant impact on an individual’s life, depression is a particularly challenging aspect of bipolar disorder. Bipolar depression is associated with high rates of morbidity, disability and suicide. One of the most effective treatment options available for bipolar depression is Olanzapine-Fluoxetine Fixed-dose Combination (OFC) as per the standard international guidelines. However, it causes significant weight gain, and cardio-vascular morbidity which decreases compliance. Effective treatment options for this aspect are urgently needed, which includes the recently US Food and Drug Administration (US-FDA) approved drug for bipolar depression, that is low-dose Cariprazine. The aim of this study will be to compare the efficacy and safety of two drugs i.e., low-dose Cariprazine and OFC in patients with acute Bipolar-II depression It will be a hospitalbased, interventional, comparative and prospective follow-up, single-blind randomized trial (N=140). Patients will be taken from both OPD and IPD of Psychiatry Department of G.M.C. and Rajindra Hospital, Patiala. They will be divided into two groups of 70 each. Group A (low-dose Cariprazine) and Group B (OFC) will Page 13 of 92 be evaluated at baseline, 2 weeks, 4 weeks and 6 weeks and 8 weeks. Primary outcome measures will be therapeutic response on Bipolar Depression Rating Scale (BDRS) and Clinical Global Impressions- Bipolar (CGI-BP) scales and improvement in quality of life on the World Health Organization Quality of Life- Brief version (WHOQoL-Bref). Secondary outcome will be treatment emergent adverse events (TEAEs) including physical parameters of body weight (kg), body mass index (BMI), blood pressure (BP), lab investigations of fasting blood sugar (FBS), fasting lipid profile (FLP) and glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c), manic switch on Young‟s Mania Rating Scale (YMRS), extrapyramidal adverse effects on ESRS score and other adverse events on the Indian Pharmacopoeia ADR reporting form. Data will be analyzed by relevant tests wherever applicable at statistically significant p value <0.05. |
