Description

Lithium carbonate (Li2CO3) is a white, odorless, crystalline compound that is commonly used as a mood stabilizer in the treatment of bipolar disorder. It is typically administered orally, and its mechanism of action is thought to involve modulation of neurotransmitter levels in the brain, particularly those of serotonin and dopamine. Lithium carbonate is synthesized by reacting lithium hydroxide with carbon dioxide. It has been extensively studied for its therapeutic effects in bipolar disorder, and its use has revolutionized the management of this condition. Research continues to investigate the precise mechanisms of action of lithium carbonate, its potential for treating other psychiatric disorders, and its long-term effects.'

Lithium Carbonate: A lithium salt, classified as a mood-stabilizing agent. Lithium ion alters the metabolism of BIOGENIC MONOAMINES in the CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM, and affects multiple neurotransmission systems. [Medical Subject Headings (MeSH), National Library of Medicine, extracted Dec-2023]

Median Change From Baseline in HOMA2 Model Assesses Insulin Resistance (HOMA2-IR) at Phase 2 Endpoint

HOMA stands for homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance and beta-cell function. These are model-based calculations that use fasting insulin and glucose concentrations in order to assess pancreatic beta-cell function and insulin resistance. The HOMA2 model assesses insulin resistance (HOMA2-IR) relative to expected normal function (indexed to 1.0 for normal function) and is based on predictions from experimental human data on the relationship between insulin and glucose in a fasted state. HOMA2-IR is a proportion of 'normal function.' (NCT00261443)

Unadjusted Mean Change From Baseline in Abnormal Involuntary Movement Scale (AIMS) at Phase 2 Endpoint

The AIMS is an assessment of movement dysfunctions. It is a 12-item instrument assessing abnormal involuntary movements associated with antipsychotic drugs and 'spontaneous' motor disturbance related to the illness itself. Scoring the AIMS consists of rating the severity of movement in 3 main anatomic areas (facial/oral, extremities, and trunk), based on a five-point scale (0=none, 4=severe). The AIMS Total Score has a possible range from 0 to 28. Negative change scores indicate improvement in movement dysfunction. (NCT00261443)

Median Baseline, Change From Baseline, and Highest Value of Change in HOMA2-IR, Phase 3 Safety Sample

HOMA stands for homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance and beta-cell function. These are model-based calculations that use fasting insulin and glucose concentrations in order to assess pancreatic beta-cell function and insulin resistance. The HOMA2 model assesses insulin resistance (HOMA2-IR) relative to expected normal function (indexed to 1.0 for normal function) and is based on predictions from experimental human data on the relationship between insulin and glucose in a fasted state. HOMA2-IR is a proportion of 'normal function.' (NCT00261443)

Baseline Abnormal Involuntary Movement Scale (AIMS)

The AIMS is an assessment of movement dysfunctions. It is a 12-item instrument assessing abnormal involuntary movements associated with antipsychotic drugs and 'spontaneous' motor disturbance related to the illness itself. Scoring the AIMS consists of rating the severity of movement in 3 main anatomic areas (facial/oral, extremities, and trunk), based on a five-point scale (0=none, 4=severe). The AIMS Total Score has a possible range from 0 to 28. Negative change scores indicate improvement in movement dysfunction. (NCT00261443)

Baseline in Simpson-Angus Scale (SAS) Total Score

The SAS is a 10-item instrument used to evaluate the presence and severity of parkinsonian symptomatology. It is the most commonly used rating scale for Parkinsonism in clinical trials over the past 25 years. The ten items focus on rigidity rather than bradykinesia, and do not assess subjective rigidity or slowness. Items are rated for severity on a 0-4 scale, with definitions given for each anchor point. The total SAS Score has a possible range from 10 to 50.(lower score=less severe). Negative change scores indicate improvement. (NCT00261443)

Change in Expanded Disability Status Scale Score

The Expanded Disability Status Scale (EDSS) is an ordinal scale ranging from 0 to 10 used to assess disability in multiple sclerosis (MS). A score of 0 denotes no neurological impairments and no neurological exam abnormalities, while a score of 10 denotes death due to MS. The EDSS is derived from subscales called Functional System Scales at the lower range of the EDSS, and from ambulatory impairments and overall functional impairment at higher ranges of the scale. The Functional System scores (Vision, Brainstem, Pyramidal, Sensory, Cerebellar, Cognitive, Bladder and Bowel) are used to generate the EDSS based on pre-specified rules that determine the overall EDSS score.

Bipolar Inventory of Symptoms Scale (BISS)

"The BISS uses a structured interview to assess the full spectrum of symptoms associated with all primary clinical states in bipolar disorder, yielding a total severity, a depression, a mania, as well as dimensional scale scores. There are 42 items; each item is rated on a 0-4 scale. The BISS is a clinician-rated instrument. The Scale is rated as follows:~0 Not at all~Slight~Mild~Moderate~Severe Each of the 42 items is rated separately, with a score, based on the most recent 7 day period. The mean score is calculated from the total score, giving an overall score out of 4, where 0 is slight and 4 is the most severe symptoms. A negative score indicated an improvement from baseline to 26 weeks." (NCT01588457)

Clinical Responder Defined as a 30% Decrease in NPI Core Score (Sum Score of NPI Domains of Agitation/Aggression, Delusions and Hallucinations) Together With a Clinical Global Impression (CGI) Behavior Change Score of 1 or 2

The patient is classified as a responder (score=1) if both criteria are met or as a non-responder (score=0) if both criteria are not met. The first criterion to determine responder status, NPI core score, has a scoring range 0-36; each of the three component scores for symptoms of agitation/aggression, delusions and hallucinations has a scoring range 0-12. For each symptom and the total score, higher score indicates more symptoms. The second criterion to determine responder status, Clinical Global Impression (CGI), is used to assess change in overall behavior; scoring range 1-7 with higher scores indicating worsening over time and lower scores indicating improvement over time. Only patients who met both criteria, assessed as change compared to baseline, were counted as responders; all other patients were non-responders. Patients that demonstrated improvement at week 12 were reported; scores for earlier weeks were only used to assess progress throughout the study. (NCT02129348)
