NCT ID:
NCT03287869
Brief Summary:
This study evaluated the safety and evaluate the safety and tolerability of open-label brexpiprazole (2 - 4 mg/day, with a starting dose of 2 mg/day) for the treatment of adult subjects with bipolar I disorder. All participants received a starting dose of brexpiprazole.
Detailed Description:
While the availability of atypical antipsychotics had increased the therapeutic options available, there remains a need for safer and more effective therapies in the treatment of manic and depressive episodes of bipolar I disorder. Brexpiprazole's specific receptor activity profile likely correlates with its established efficacy in schizophrenia and major depressive disorder, and may prove to be an effective target for the treatment of acute mania of bipolar I disorder.
