NCT ID NCT07493551

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study tests whether a new generic version of a 3-month schizophrenia injection works the same as the brand-name drug Invega Trinza. About 260 Chinese adults with stable schizophrenia will receive multiple doses of either the test or reference drug. The goal is to see if the two formulations reach similar drug levels in the blood and have similar safety profiles.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance

paliperidone palmitate injection (3-month formulation)

What this could lead to

If successful, this could provide a more affordable, equally effective long-acting treatment option for schizophrenia patients in China.

What could go wrong

This is a bioequivalence study, not a test of new efficacy or safety. It only compares two formulations in a specific population, so results may not apply broadly.
