Summary

This study is following 200 children and teens (ages 7-20) who have experienced psychosis to see if they fall into distinct subgroups. Researchers will use interviews, brain scans, and genetic tests to classify participants. The goal is to see if these subgroups predict how well a child responds to specific antipsychotic medications, potentially leading to more personalized treatment in the future.

What this could mean

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

What this could lead to
If successful, this could help doctors identify which antipsychotic drug works best for a child based on their specific psychosis subtype, leading to more personalized treatment.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study, not a treatment trial. It may not lead to immediate changes in care, and the findings might not apply to all children with psychosis.
