The trial was randomized and quadruple-blind, included both placebo and active control groups, and enrolled 593 participants. Its primary clinical symptom endpoint was PANSS-T change, with mean changes of -12.0 for iloperidone versus -7.1 for placebo, but statistical significance of the comparison is not reported, so the result remains unclear.
Next expected readout: November 2027 · NCT06961968 (registry estimate)
Ziprasidone
Marketed by Pfizer and partners
NCT00159770 · Phase 3 · completed
The study used randomization and active comparators but was open-label, with 290 participants, and its primary clinical endpoint was PANSS symptom change. No results are posted, so the primary endpoint cannot be classified as met or missed.
Next expected readout: February 2027 · NCT03781115 (registry estimate)
