BACKGROUND: To understand the implications of switching from paliperidone palmitate 1-monthly (PP1M) to paliperidone palmitate 3-monthly (PP3M) treatment of schizophrenia from the perspective of four key stakeholders: patients, physicians, nurses and carers.
METHODS: This was a cross-sectional, retrospective, non-interventional study comprising a one-time questionnaire (PINC-Q) for adult patients (aged ≥18 years) with schizophrenia (International Classification of Diseases; ICD-10) and their physician, nurse and carer. Questionnaires were developed in association with patient and carer advocacy groups (GAMIAN and EUFAMI) and following an advisory board formed of psychiatrists and nurses. The degree of alignment between stakeholders was also examined.
RESULTS: Responses were received from a total of 224 evaluable patients. For most patients (88.4%), responses were received from at least two other stakeholders. Patients were moderately ill with mild-to-moderate lack of insight and had received PP1M for a mean (standard deviation [SD]) of 23.9 (21.28) months before switching to PP3M (duration mean [SD] 12.8 [3.72] months). The most frequently reported reasons to switch from PP1M to PP3M were 'to live life as normally as possible' and 'patient convenience'. Over 79% of responses within each stakeholder group stated that PP3M helped the patients, with increased patient activity and social involvement, improved frequency and quality of physician-patient and nurse-patient communication and decreased perceived stigma.
CONCLUSIONS: The results of this study add to the increasing body of evidence supporting the benefits of PP3M in a population of patients with schizophrenia representative of real-world clinical practice.
