Effects

Asenapine has a relatively low propensity for changes in metabolic parameters, body composition, sedation/somnolence and extrapyramidal side effects. It has a complex pharmacodynamic profile with affinities at multiple dopamine, serotonin, histamine, and α-adrenergic receptors.

Asenapine maleate (ASM) has been demonstrated as a safe and effective therapeutic agent under twice-daily administration. It has shown a comparable efficacy profile to other atypical antipsychotics and it is associated with a favourable metabolic profile and less weight gain.

Number of Participants Achieving Young-Mania Rating Scale (Y-MRS) Responder Status

The Y-MRS is a clinician-rated instrument used for assessing the symptoms of mania, composed of 11 items. For the 11 items, scores range from 0 (symptoms absent) to, depending on the item, either 4 (7 items) or 8 (4 items). Scores for individual items add to a total score (range: 0-60), with higher scores indicating greater symptom severity. At pre-specified time points, the number of participants achieving Y-MRS responder status was assessed, defined as the number of participants with a 50% decrease from baseline in Y-MRS total score. For evaluation of this endpoint, a LOCF analysis was used; baseline values are not eligible to be carried forward to missing post-baseline assessments. (NCT00145470)

Least Squares Mean Change From Baseline at Day 21 in Quality of Life as Determined by Short Form-36 Version 2 (SF-36v2)

Least squares mean change from baseline at day 21 in quality of life was assessed, as determined by SF-36v2. The SF-36v2 is a self-administered questionnaire, measuring 8 domains: Physical Functioning (PF); Role-Physical (RP); Bodily Pain (BP); General Health (GH); Vitality (VT); Social Functioning (SF); Role-Emotional (RE); and Mental Health (MH). These 8 concepts are further organized into a Physical Component Summary (PCS; composite of PF, RP, BP, and GH) and a Mental Component Summary (MCS; composite of VT, SF, RE, and MH). The SF-36v2 domains and composite summaries were scored using a norm-based scoring approach, yielding a mean of 50 and standard deviation of 10 based on the norms from the 1998 SF-36 United States general population norms. For the PCS and MCS, scores range from 0 to 100, with higher scores indicating better quality of life. Further, decreases in quality of life (by PCS and MCS) are reflected by a negative change from baseline. (NCT00145470)

Least Squares Mean Change From Baseline in Young-Mania Rating Scale (Y-MRS) Score at Day 42

The least squares mean change from baseline in Y-MRS score at day 42 was assessed. The Y-MRS is a clinician-rated instrument used for assessing the symptoms of mania, composed of 11 items. For the 11 items, scores range from 0 (symptoms absent) to, depending on the item, either 4 (7 items) or 8 (4 items). Scores for individual items add to a total score (range: 0-60), with higher scores indicating greater symptom severity. Further, decreases in symptom severity over time would be reflected by negative changes from baseline. For evaluation of this endpoint, a LOCF analysis was used; baseline values are not eligible to be carried forward to missing post-baseline assessments. (NCT00145470)

This measure reports results for the combined positive subscale (7 items) and negative subscale (7 items) of the PANSS, which is a 30-item clinician-rated instrument used to assess the symptoms of schizophrenia. Positive symptoms refer to an excess or distortion of normal mental status (e.g., delusions). Negative symptoms represent a diminution or loss of normal functions (e.g., emotional withdrawal). For each of the total 14 items in the combined positive and negative subscales, symptom severity was rated on a 7-point scale, from 1=absent to 7=extreme. The PANSS positive and negative subscale scores combined for each participant was calculated as the sum of the rating assigned to each of the 14 combined subscale items, and ranged from 14 to 98 with a higher score indicating greater severity of symptoms. The reported measure is the change from baseline at Day 56; improvement in symptoms is represented by negative values. (NCT01190254)

The PANSS is a 30-item clinician-rated instrument for assessing the symptoms of schizophrenia. It consists of 3 subscales: positive subscale (7 items), negative subscale (7 items), and general psychopathology subscale (16 items). Positive symptoms refer to an excess or distortion of normal mental status (e.g., delusions). Negative symptoms represent a diminution or loss of normal functions (e.g., emotional withdrawal). For each item, symptom severity was rated on a 7-point scale, from 1=absent to 7=extreme. The PANSS total score for each participant was calculated as the sum of the rating assigned to each of the 30 PANSS items, and ranged from 30 to 210 with a higher score indicating greater severity of symptoms. The reported measure is the change from baseline at Week 52 (calculated for a participant as Week 52 value minus baseline value); improvement in symptoms is represented by negative values.

Each raw subscale score is converted to a T-Score. The possible T-Score range for the Word subscale is 15 to 85. The possible T-Score range for the Color subscale is 8 to 92. The possible T-Score range for the Color-Word subscale is 3 to 98. Higher scores on the subscales indicate better cognitive functioning. Subscales are scored independently and are not added to produce a total score. (NCT01460290)

Change in Cognitive Status as Measured by the Trail Making Test

The Trails test is a measure of cognitive functioning. The measure consists of two parts: A and B. In part A, participants are asked to draw a trail connecting a series of numbers in sequential order. In Part B, participants are asked to draw a trail connecting a combination of letters and numbers. The time taken to complete each task is noted as the score (e.g., 78 seconds). For Trails A, there is no upper limit on the score, as subjects are given as much time as is needed for them to complete the task. Higher scores indicate poorer cognitive functioning. In Trails B, the task is timed with an upper limit of five minutes. If, at four minutes, it is determined that the subject will not likely complete the task in the time allotted, then the task can be called off. Higher scores indicate poorer cognitive functioning.

Change in Cognitive Status as Measured by the Dementia Rating Scale (DRS)

The DRS contains items that evaluate cognitive function across 5 subscales: attention, initiation/perseveration, construction, conceptualization, and memory. Subscale raw score ranges are: attention (0-37), initiation/perseveration (0-37), construction (0-6), conceptualization (0-39), and memory (0-25). Raw subscale scores are added for a total raw score with range 0-144. For each raw subscale score, scaled scores are looked up from a battery of 13 tables. Age of the participant determines which table is to be used. Total raw subscale score also has its own scaled score in the tables. In addition to use in determining scaled scores for each of the subscales, these tables are used to look up the scaled score for the total raw score. The tables are contained in the article Robust and Expanded Norms for the Dementia Rating Scale (Pedraza, Lucas, et al. 2010); Archives of Clinical Neuropsychology 25; 347-358. Higher scores, raw and scaled, indicate better cognitive functioning. (NCT01460290)

Percentage of Participants Who Are PANSS Responders (≥30% Reduction From Baseline in PANSS Total Score) at Days 4, 7, 14, 21, 28 and 35

A PANSS responder was defined as a participant who had a reduction from baseline of at least 30% in the PANSS total score at a post-baseline assessment. The PANSS is a 30-item clinician-rated instrument for assessing schizophrenia symptoms. For each item, symptom severity was rated on a 7-point scale, from 1=absent to 7=extreme. The Total score is the sum of the ratings for the individual items, and ranged from 30 to 210 with a higher score indicating greater severity of symptoms. Missing data were imputed by LOCF.

Change From Baseline in PANSS Marder Factor Hostility/Excitement Symptom Score at Days 4, 7, 14, 21, 28, 35 and 42

This measure reports results for the 4 items of the Marder hostility/excitement factor of the PANSS, which is a 30-item clinician-rated instrument used to assess schizophrenia symptoms. Marder factors are a modified grouping of the 30 PANSS items. For each item, symptom severity was rated on a 7-point scale, from 1=absent to 7=extreme. PANSS Marder factor hostility/excitement symptom score for each participant was sum of rating assigned to each of the 4 applicable Marder factor items, and ranged from 4 to 28 with a higher score indicating greater severity of symptoms. Measure reports change from baseline; improvement in symptoms is represented by negative values. (NCT01617187)
