Phase 2 Study Evaluating Brenipatide with Standard Care for Schizophrenia Treatment in Adults Aged 18 to 55

What this Trial Is About

Researchers are evaluating the effectiveness and safety of brenipatide combined with standard care compared to a placebo plus standard care for treating schizophrenia in adults aged 18 to 55. This phase 2 clinical trial aims to better understand how brenipatide works alongside existing treatments in this population. Participants are randomly assigned to receive either brenipatide or placebo, both administered by subcutaneous injection, alongside their usual standard of care medications. The study includes a screening period lasting about one month, followed by a treatment period that can last up to 12 months, and then a follow-up period of approximately two months. During the trial, participants will attend scheduled visits to monitor their health, complete questionnaires, and maintain diaries about their medication use. Researchers will measure changes in body weight, neurocognitive function, schizophrenia symptom severity, and other clinical assessments. Safety is closely monitored throughout, and the total participation time may last up to about 15 months.
