Efficacy and Safety of Aripiprazole Once-Monthly in the Maintenance Treatment of Bipolar I Disorder: A Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, 52-Week Randomized Withdrawal Study
Open accessAbstract
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate efficacy, safety, and tolerability of long-acting injectable antipsychotic aripiprazole once-monthly 400 mg (AOM 400) as maintenance treatment for bipolar I disorder (BP-I). METHODS: In a double-blind, placebo-controlled, 52-week randomized withdrawal study conducted from August 2012 to April 2016, patients with a DSM-IV-TR diagnosis of BP-I currently experiencing a manic episode were stabilized sequentially on oral aripiprazole and AOM 400 and then randomized to AOM 400 or placebo. The primary end point was time from randomization to recurrence of any mood episode. Other end points included proportion of patients with recurrence of any mood episode and recurrence by mood episode type. RESULTS: Of 266 randomized patients, 64 (48.1%) of 133 in the AOM 400 group and 38 (28.6%) of 133 in the placebo group completed the study. AOM 400 significantly delayed the time to recurrence of any mood episode compared with placebo (hazard ratio: 0.45; 95% CI, 0.30 to 0.68; P < .0001). Significantly fewer patients (P < .0001) experienced recurrence of any mood episode with AOM 400 (35/132; 26.5%) compared with placebo (68/133; 51.1%), with the effects observed predominantly on manic episodes (P < .0001). Patients were not depressed at study entry, and between-group differences in depressive episodes were not significant (P < .864). The treatment-emergent adverse events (incidence > 5%) that were reported at higher rates with AOM 400 than placebo were weight increase, akathisia, insomnia, and anxiety. CONCLUSIONS: AOM 400 delayed the time to and reduced the rate of recurrence of mood episodes and was generally safe and well tolerated. These findings support the use of AOM 400 for maintenance treatment of BP-I. TRIAL REGISTRATION: ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT01567527.

Risperidone long-acting injectable monotherapy or adjunctive therapy once every 2 weeks or aripiprazole once-monthly injectable monotherapy has been shown to be effective in preventing relapse of mood episodes in patients with bipolar disorder.
“Risperidone long‐acting injectable monotherapy383 or adjunctive therapy (level 2)384 once every 2 weeks or aripiprazole once‐monthly injectable monotherapy (level 2)377 has been shown to be effective in preventing relapse of mood episodes in patients with BD.”

Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredAripiprazole oral or once monthly is effective in preventing any mood or manic episode, but it has not been shown to be effective in preventing depression.
“aripiprazole oral (level 2)375, 376 or once monthly (level 2)377 is also recommended as a first‐line monotherapy in view of its efficacy in preventing any mood or manic episode as well as its safety/tolerability profile, although it has not been shown to be effective in preventing depression.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
