BACKGROUND: Non-adherence to antipsychotics in schizophrenia is associated with an increased risk of psychotic relapse and hospitalization, a risk that is reduced with the use of long-acting injectable (LAI) antipsychotics. Randomized clinical trials (RCTs) have demonstrated the efficacy of paliperidone palmitate 3-monthly (PP3M) for psychotic relapse prevention in schizophrenia, but it remains poorly documented among individuals treated in real-life settings who can benefit the most out of LAIs.
OBJECTIVES: The objective of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of PP3M in relapse prevention among patients with schizophrenia.
METHODS: This is a multicentre retrospective study conducted in four outpatients' clinics across Canada. All consecutive patients with a main diagnosis of schizophrenia who initiated PP3M between June 2016 and March 2020 were included. The primary outcome was psychotic relapse, defined using broad and clinically relevant criteria.
RESULTS: Among 178 consecutive patients who were switched to PP3M, the 12-month relapse rate was 18.5% and the relapse-free survival probability was 0.788 (95% confidence interval [CI] = 0.725-0.856). Comorbid diagnoses of personality disorders and substance use disorders were associated with hazard rates (HRs) of 3.6 (95% CI = 1.8-7.3, p < 0.001) and 3.1 (95% CI = 1.6-6.2), respectively. Increased psychopathology severity was associated with an increased likelihood of relapse, while having a job or being in school was protective.
CONCLUSION: These findings reinforce the necessity of conducting research in patients with comorbid psychiatric disorders who are typically underrepresented in RCTs, yet overrepresented in real-life settings, in order to better inform and guide clinical practice.
