Summary

The purpose of this study is a noninferiority comparison of the orthostatic tolerability of a dose of 12 mg extended-release (ER) OROS paliperidone with the current recommended initial titration dose (2 mg) of immediate-release (IR) risperidone in patients with schizophrenia. Other study objectives are 1) to compare the tolerability and safety of a clinically equivalent fixed dose of ER OROS paliperidone with the currently recommended dose of risperidone, 2) to compare the early tolerability of the 2 treatments with placebo, 3) to compare tolerability of the 2 treatments, using a population pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic (pop PK/PD) model, to 4) assess the relationship between genetic variability in drug metabolizing enzymes and interindividual variability in plasma exposure to paliperidone or risperidone within each treatment group.
