Lurasidone in the Treatment of Bipolar Depression With Mixed (Subsyndromal Hypomanic) Features
Bibliographic record
Abstract
OBJECTIVE: Mixed (subsyndromal hypomanic) features are prevalent in patients with bipolar depression and are associated with more severe and complex illness, including increased risk for suicide attempts, higher switch to mania during antidepressant therapy, and a higher rate of recurrence. The aim of this post hoc analysis was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of lurasidone in the treatment of patients with bipolar depression presenting with mixed features. METHOD: Patients with a DSM-IV-TR diagnosis of major depressive episode associated with bipolar I disorder, with or without rapid cycling, and with a Montgomery-Asberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS) score ≥ 20 and a Young Mania Rating Scale (YMRS) score ≤ 12 were randomly assigned to 6 weeks of double-blind, once-daily treatment with lurasidone 20-60 mg, lurasidone 80-120 mg, or placebo. The presence of mixed features was defined as a YMRS score ≥ 4 at study baseline. Efficacy analyses included change in MADRS total score from baseline to week 6 (the primary outcome in the original study, conducted between April 2009 and February 2012). RESULTS: At baseline, mixed features were present in 56% of patients (lurasidone, n = 182/323; placebo, n = 90/162). Treatment with lurasidone (vs placebo) was associated with significantly greater reductions in MADRS scores in the mixed features group (-15.7 vs -10.9; P = .001; week 6; mixed model for repeated measures [MMRM]; effect size, 0.48) and in the group without mixed features (-15.2 vs -10.8; P = .002; week 6; MMRM; effect size, 0.48). Rates of protocol-defined treatment-emergent hypomania or mania were similar for patients with mixed features (lurasidone, 2.2%; placebo, 3.2%) and without mixed features (lurasidone, 3.4%; placebo, 0.0%). CONCLUSIONS: Lurasidone was found in this post hoc analysis to be efficacious in the treatment of patients with bipolar depression who present with mixed features (assessed cross-sectionally at study baseline). No increased risk of treatment-emergent mania was observed in either group. TRIAL REGISTRATION: ClinicalTrials.gov identifier: NCT00868699.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
