Head-to-head evidence
Olanzapine (Zyprexa Relprevv) vs Paliperidone palmitate (Invega Hafyera)
Same mechanism, same race: design-graded trial evidence for both assets, with the grading rationale shown. Grades describe the quality of the evidence, never the merits of either security.

NCT00088478 · Phase 3 · completed
This was a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial of 402 patients. All three tested doses of the long-acting olanzapine injection produced a significantly greater reduction in psychiatric symptom severity (PANSS) than placebo.

Paliperidone palmitate (Invega Hafyera)
Marketed by Johnson & Johnson
NCT03345342 · Phase 3 · completed
After an open-label stabilization phase, 702 participants were randomized to six-month or three-month paliperidone palmitate and treated double-blind with matching injections, including placebo injections to preserve masking. The primary endpoint was the clinical outcome of time to relapse, but the registry reports that the median was not estimable in either group and does not provide a p-value or confidence interval, so the result cannot be classified as clearly met or missed.
