 Obiettivo del progetto (Objective)

'OPTiMiSE (OPtimization of Treatment and Management of Schizophrenia in Europe) will focus on two goals: optimising current treatments in Schizophrenia and explore novel therapeutic options for schizophrenia. The project intends to both address basic, but so far unanswered, questions in the treatment of schizophrenia and develop new and experimental interventions. It is expected that the project will lead to evidence that is directly applicable to treatment guidelines, will explore the development of novel treatments and will identify potential mechanisms for new drug development. To achieve these goals we have assembled a European team of experts that is second to none in the world. Together we will pursue the following objectives: -To use MRI to optimise treatment outcome and to facilitate prediction of response to treatment; - To provide a rational basis for antipsychotic choices in the treatment of first episode schizophrenia or schizophreniform disorder; - To improve functional outcome and reduce drug discontinuation by means of psychosocial interventions. - To explore the potential of cannabidiol CBD, a modulator of endocannabinoid functioning, as an alternative to D2 based antipsychotics - To validate a new approach to improve cognitive performance in patients with cognitive deficits on the basis of their genetic make up; - To use theoretically driven neurochemical imaging (MRS) and empirically driven genetic/genomic markers as predictors of response to treatment.'

Introduzione (Teaser)

A large European consortium is working to improve existing treatments for schizophrenia and implement new ones. Through clinical trials, the OPTIMISE study will determine treatment response, while novel imaging and biomarker tools will facilitate response prediction.

Descrizione progetto (Article)

The first drugs to treat schizophrenia were developed nearly 50 years ago and were designed to tackle the psychotic episodes of patients. Although in most instances these drugs have proved efficacious in treating psychosis, their overall functional impact is limited. As a result, patients suffer from cognitive deficits and those who discontinue the drugs quickly relapse.

In order to improve current treatment strategies, the EU-funded 'Optimization of treatment and management of schizophrenia in Europe' (http://www.optimisetrial.eu/ (OPTIMISE)) project will perform clinical trials. At the same time, it will test novel therapeutics in a series of experimental studies.

Treatment optimisation is based on concomitant examination of patients with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for the detection of any underlying pathological aetiology. The idea is that patients with pathophysiological causes should not receive anti-psychotic drugs. MRI, alongside proteomics and metabolomics markers, will also be used to assess how patients respond to treatment. Taken together, this information will determine the predictive role of MRI and molecular analysis.

An important part of OPTIMISE work is to provide evidence for the choice of anti-psychotic treatments. For this purpose, partners will evaluate if amilsulpride is a justified first-choice drug and what course of action should be taken for patients who fail to respond. Administration of clozapine will be assessed in this context.

In order to improve the functional outcome of existing treatments, the consortium will test the impact of various psychosocial interventions. Furthermore, novel therapeutic strategies such as cannabidiol will be evaluated. The trial protocols have been established and approved, and partners are in the process of recruiting patients.

The outcome of the OPTIMISE trials will significantly impact current diagnostic and therapeutic practice in schizophrenia. These evidence-based treatment guidelines are expected to improve treatment responses, while the psycho-educational package will improve adherence and prevent relapse.
