Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

The primary objective in this study is to demonstrate superior efficacy of quetiapine to placebo by evaluating relapse prevention in long-term use in patients with schizophrenia as measured by the time to first psychiatric relapse up to one year
The proportion of patients who discontinue study treatment due to lack of efficacy or whose positive and negative syndrome scale (PANSS) total score increases 20% or more
from randomisation to any visit
The proportion of patients who have an improved clinical benefit based on assessment of clinical efficacy in combination with assessment of tolerability
Positron emission tomography using the radioligand [11C]raclopride
5 visits

Secondary Endpoints

To demonstrate superiority of quetiapine to placebo by evaluating the risk of relapse in long-term use in patients with schizophrenia by evaluating the one-year relapse rate
The change in PANSS total score
from randomization to week 6
The change in PANSS positive, negative and general psychopathology symptoms subscale scores respectively
from randomization to week 6

Frequently asked questions about SEROQUEL

What is SEROQUEL used for?

SEROQUEL is an investigational small molecule being developed for depression, schizophrenia, and bipolar disorder. It is in Phase 3 clinical development for these psychiatric conditions. The drug is being studied in patients with schizophrenia and depression, with completed trials evaluating its use in these indications.

What does SEROQUEL target?

SEROQUEL targets the D2 dopamine receptor, as demonstrated in a positron emission tomography (PET) study using [11C]raclopride to determine central D2 dopamine occupancy. This mechanism is relevant to its psychiatric applications in schizophrenia and related conditions.

Who makes SEROQUEL?

SEROQUEL is being developed by AstraZeneca PLC, a biopharmaceutical company listed on the stock exchange under the ticker symbol AZN. AstraZeneca is conducting clinical trials to evaluate the drug's safety and efficacy in psychiatric indications.

What phase is SEROQUEL in?

SEROQUEL is in Phase 3 clinical development. Three Phase 3 trials have been completed, all focusing on schizophrenia. These trials investigated switching from immediate release to sustained release formulations, relapse prevention, and switching from other antipsychotic treatments.

What clinical trials is SEROQUEL in?

SEROQUEL has completed three Phase 3 trials: NCT00206128 (switching from IR to SR in schizophrenia, 454 patients), NCT00228462 (relapse prevention in stable chronic schizophrenia, 197 patients), and NCT00234377 (switching from any antipsychotic to SEROQUEL, 550 patients). A Phase 1 PET study (NCT00832221) examined D2 occupancy in depression.

Is SEROQUEL the same as quetiapine?

SEROQUEL is a brand name for the drug quetiapine, an atypical antipsychotic. The clinical trials listed under SEROQUEL evaluate this compound in schizophrenia and depression. The drug is being developed by AstraZeneca for psychiatric use.
