Cross-Sectional Iloperidone IVGTT
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
This study aims to utilize state of the art procedures such as the frequently sampled intravenous glucose tolerance test (FSIVGTT), Bergman's Minimal Model Analysis, lipoprotein analysis, and DEXA scans to demonstrate that a newer agent, iloperidone, is devoid of the metabolic abnormalities associated with other atypical antipsychotic treatments, namely olanzapine and risperidone, and offers an advantage over these other agents.

Detailed Description
This one-month research study examines how Fanapt® (iloperidone), Zyprexa® (olanzapine), or Risperdal® (risperidone) affect glucose metabolism in patients with schizophrenia, schizoaffective disorder, bipolar disorder, major depressive disorder, psychosis NOS, delusional disorder or paranoid disorder. This study requires 3 research visits and includes a physical exam, medical history, vitals, an EKG, cognitive testing, psychological rating scales, a DEXA scan, a nutritional assessment, a 3-hour intravenous glucose tolerance test (IVGTT) and a fasting blood draw.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Difference between cohorts in glucose metabolism [Baseline]
Difference between olanzapine- or risperidone-treated subjects, and Iloperidone-treated subjects on glucose metabolism as measured by the FSIVGTT procedure at one time point (Baseline).
- Difference between cohorts in triglycerides [Baseline]
Difference between olanzapine- or risperidone-subjects and subjects treated with iloperidone in triglyceride levels measured at one time point (Baseline).
- Difference between cohorts on LDL cholesterol [Baseline]
Difference between olanzapine- or risperidone-subjects and subjects treated with iloperidone in LDL cholesterol levels measured at one time point (Baseline).
