Extended Release OROS Paliperidone in treatment of Schizophrenia (double blind, placebo-controlled trial, with Olanzapine arm) Clinical Trials Facts presented on Clinical Trials Search is not designed to be a substitute for certified medical advice, travels to or treatment with a real dr.. We aren't doctors. Always consult your mD on Extended Release OROS Paliperidone in treatment of Schizophrenia (double blind, placebo-controlled trial, with Olanzapine arm) conditions. Clinical Trials Search.org is a website dedicated to listing clinical research studies in human subjects. Extended Release OROS Paliperidone in treatment of Schizophrenia (double blind, placebo-controlled trial, with Olanzapine arm) Clinical research trials and Extended Release OROS Paliperidone in treatment of Schizophrenia (double blind, placebo-controlled trial, with Olanzapine arm) medical trials occur in many of places across the U.S.A.. A clinical trial or clinical study is a research project with human volunteer subjects. Clinical drug trials and pharmaceutical clinical trials generally assess the effectiveness of new does drugs. The role of the studies / undertakings is to figure out certain human healthcare questions. Clinical trials are a popular means for doctors, government agencies, and private sector corporations to locate treatments for all forms of circumstances, including Extended Release OROS Paliperidone in treatment of Schizophrenia (double blind, placebo-controlled trial, with Olanzapine arm). Extended Release OROS Paliperidone in treatment of Schizophrenia (double blind, placebo-controlled trial, with Olanzapine arm) Clinical Trials and other clinical trials permit volunteers to get medical treatment options before they are available to the masses. Most times the human subjects acquire treatment for free of charge, and sometimes they are paid for their time. Occasionally there is a cost for a Extended Release OROS Paliperidone in treatment of Schizophrenia (double blind, placebo-controlled trial, with Olanzapine arm) clinical trial. Participants oftentimes recieve the finest healthcare available for their Extended Release OROS Paliperidone in treatment of Schizophrenia (double blind, placebo-controlled trial, with Olanzapine arm) condition. Dangers are a reality, nonetheless, and might include extra or frequent physician calls, health hazards (potentially life-endangering), and/or the treatment being ineffectual. Trials are federally regulated with strict guidelines to protect clinical trials subjects.

Extended Release OROS Paliperidone in treatment of Schizophrenia (double blind, placebo-controlled trial, with Olanzapine arm)
For Condition: Schizophrenia
Status: Recruiting
Sponsor(s): Johnson & Johnson Pharmaceutical Research and Development, L.L.C. ,
Synopsis: The primary objective of the double-blind phase of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of 3 fixed dosages of ER OROS paliperidone(3, 9, and 15mg/day) compared with placebo in subjects with schizophrenia. The efficacy response will be mesured by the change in the Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS) total score from start of treatment to the end of the double-blind phase.
