Treats the full spectrum of bipolar I episodes

No matter the bipolar I episode (depressive, acute manic or mixed), VRAYLAR is approved to treat it1

It is unknown if the statistically significant differences observed at time points earlier than Week 3 represent clinically relevant treatment effects.

Maximum recommended dose of VRAYLAR is 6 mg/day. Doses above 6 mg daily did not appear to have additional benefit over lower doses and a dose-related increase in certain adverse reactions was observed.1

Three 3-week, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled studies evaluating the efficacy and safety of VRAYLAR in adult patients (18-65 years old) with manic or mixed episodes of bipolar I disorder, with or without psychotic features, based on DSM-IV-TR criteria. The primary statistical analyses were conducted using an MMRM approach for Study 4 and Study 6 and the LOCF approach for Study 5. In each study, the primary endpoint was the LS mean change from baseline in YMRS total score at the end of Week 3.1,9-11

  • Core mania symptoms are given double weight in calculating total score.

The analyses were not prespecified endpoints and were not adjusted for multiplicity. Therefore, treatment differences cannot be regarded as statistically significant.

VRAYLAR was approved based on the primary endpoint, mean change in YMRS total score from baseline at Week 3.1

Maximum recommended dose of VRAYLAR is 6 mg/day. Doses above 6 mg daily did not appear to have additional benefit over lower doses and a dose-related increase in certain adverse reactions was observed.1

A post-hoc analysis of data pooled from 3 similarly designed, randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind, multicenter, parallel-group studies of adult patients with bipolar I disorder. Patients in the ITT population (N=1037) were treated with either placebo (n=429) or VRAYLAR (n=608). VRAYLAR doses 3–12 mg/day were pooled for analysis. Mean change from baseline at 3 weeks on individual YMRS items was analyzed using an MMRM approach.12

ITT= intent-to-treat.
