Schizophrenia Clinical Trials & Treatment In Independence OH

The Eli Lilly Schizophrenia Study is being conducted to see whether an investigational study medication can help improve thinking, memory, and focus that sometimes become challenging with schizophrenia. Many people with schizophrenia find that everyday tasks—like remembering appointments, staying organized, or managing daily activities—can be difficult even when their other symptoms are well-controlled.

While current treatments help manage many aspects of schizophrenia, they don't always address these thinking and memory challenges. Researchers want to see if adding a new medication to current treatment can help improve these abilities and overall quality of life in Independence and Cleveland OH.

How the study works:
The study medication is given once a week and can be done at home (or with help from a trusted person if needed). The dose starts low and is gradually adjusted to find what works best for you.

This study is seeking adults who:

• Are 18 to 55 years of age

• Have been living with schizophrenia

• Are doing well on their current medication (stable for at least 8 weeks)

• Are taking 1 or 2 antipsychotic medications

• Have a trusted friend, family member, or support person who can participate in some study visits

​

About your study partner:
We ask that you have a support person—like a close friend, family member, or caregiver—who knows you well and can attend some study visits with you or be available for brief phone check-ins. This person helps the study team understand how things are going from another perspective and can provide valuable support throughout the study.

Study commitment:
The study involves about one year of treatment with visits to the study center approximately once a month, plus phone check-ins in between.
There is no cost to you for the study treatment or any study-related visits or tests. Reimbursement for travel costs and meals may be available.​
