Quetiapine Fumarate XR
DrugOral treatment, once daily, Day 1 = 300 mg, Day 2 and thereafter 600 mg. Dose might be adjusted as from Day 3 by the discretion of the investigator.
Other names: Seroquel XR
NCT Number: NCT00931723
The purpose of this study is to determine if lithium 600-1800 mg/day is effective when added to quetiapine fumarate extended release (quetiapine XR or SEROQUEL® XR) 400-800 mg/day in treating acute mania and if so, how it compares with placebo (a non-active capsule, like a sugar pill, that looks like lithium).

Time frame: Change in YMRS total score from baseline to Day 43.
The YMRS total score ranges from 0 to 60 where higher scores indicate more severe mania, thus, a negative change (or decrease) from baseline indicates a reduction (or improvement) in manic symptoms. Total score ≤12 indicates remission (13-19=minimal symptoms; 20-25=mild mania, 26-37=moderate mania, 38-60=severe mania).
Time frame: 43 days (from baseline to Day 43)
The number of patients with clinically significant response (defined as ≥50% reduction from baseline to Day 43 in the YMRS total score) was calculated. The YMRS total score ranges from 0 to 60 where higher scores indicate more severe mania, thus, a negative change (or 50% reduction) from baseline indicates a reduction (or improvement) in manic symptoms.
Time frame: Days 8 to 43
The number of patients with clinically significant remission (defined as YMRS total score ≤12) from Days 8 to 43) was calculated.
The Young Mania Rating Scale total score ranges from 0 to 60 where higher scores indicate more severe mania, thus, a negative change (or 50% reduction) from baseline indicates a reduction (or improvement) in manic symptoms. Total score ≤12 indicates remission (13-19=minimal symptoms; 20-25=mild mania, 26-37=moderate mania, 38-60=severe mania).
Time frame: Change from baseline to Day 43.
The CGI-BP-S scale rates the severity of the patient's illness at the time of assessment and is scored from 1 to 7 (1=normal, not ill to 7=very severely ill). Higher CGI-BP-S scores indicate greater illness severity.
Time frame: Change from baseline to Day 43
The CGI-BP-C scale rates how much the patient's illness has improved or worsened compared to the phase immediately preceding treatment and is scored on a scale from 1 to 8 (1=very much improved to 7=very much worse; 8=not applicable). A missing score will be used when a scale scored as 8 (not applicable). CGI-BP-C scores >4 indicate worsening, while scores <4 indicate improvement.
Time frame: Day 43.
The number of patients with a CGI-BP-C of "Much" or "Very much" improved in overall bipolar illness assessment at Day 43 was calculated.
The CGI-BP-C scale rates how much the patient's illness has improved or worsened compared to the phase immediately preceding treatment and is scored on a scale from 1 to 8 (1=very much improved to 7=very much worse; 8=not applicable). A missing score will be used when a scale scored as 8 (not applicable). CGI-BP-C scores >4 indicate worsening, while scores <4 indicate improvement.
Time frame: Change from baseline to Day 43.
The MADRS is a 10-item scale that evaluates depressive symptoms. Each MADRS item is rated on a 0 to 6 scale. Higher MADRS scores indicate higher levels of depressive symptoms.
Time frame: Change from baseline to Day 43
The PANSS is a 30-item scale designed to assess various symptoms of schizophrenia and are rated on a 7-point scale that ranges from 1 (absent) to 7 (extreme psychopathology). The PANSS total score is the sum of all 30 individual-item scores and ranges from 30 to 210.A negative change (or decrease) from baseline indicates a reduction (or improvement) in symptoms.
Time frame: Change from baseline to Day 43
The PANSS is a 30-item scale designed to assess various symptoms of schizophrenia and are rated on a 7-point scale that ranges from 1 (absent) to 7 (extreme psychopathology). The PANSS activation subscale score for effect on agitation and aggression is the sum of 6 PANSS individual items (ie, hostility, poor impulse control, excitement, uncooperativeness, poor rapport and tension) and ranges from 6 to 42. A negative change (or decrease) from baseline indicates a reduction (or improvement) in symptoms.
Time frame: Change from baseline to Day 43
The PANSS is a 30-item scale designed to assess various symptoms of schizophrenia and are rated on a 7-point scale that ranges from 1 (absent) to 7 (extreme psychopathology). The PANSS positive subscale score is the sum of the 7 positive item scores (ie, delusions, conceptual disorganization, hallucinatory behavior, excitement, grandiosity, suspiciousness/persecution and hostility) and ranges from 7 to 49. A negative change (or decrease) from baseline indicates a reduction (or improvement) in symptoms.
