Impact of possible tardive dyskinesia on physical wellness and social functioning: results from the real-world RE-KINECT study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Tardive dyskinesia (TD) is a persistent and potentially disabling movement disorder associated with antipsychotic use. Data from RE-KINECT, a real-world study of antipsychotic-treated outpatients, were analyzed to assess the effects of possible TD on patient health and social functioning.

Methods

Analyses were conducted in Cohort 1 (patients with no abnormal involuntary movements) and Cohort 2 (patients with possible TD per clinician judgment). Assessments included: EuroQoL's EQ-5D-5L utility (health); Sheehan Disability Scale (SDS) total score (social functioning); patient- and clinician-rated severity of possible TD ("none", "some", "a lot"); and patient-rated impact of possible TD ("none", "some", "a lot"). Regression models were used to analyze the following: associations between higher (worse) severity/impact scores and lower (worse) EQ-5D-5L utility (indicated by negative regression coefficients); and associations between higher (worse) severity/impact scores and higher (worse) SDS total score (indicated by positive regression coefficients).

Results

In Cohort 2 patients who were aware of their abnormal movements, patient-rated TD impact was highly and significantly associated with EQ-5D-5L utility (regression coefficient: - 0.023, P < 0.001) and SDS total score (1.027, P < 0.001). Patient-rated severity was also significantly associated with EQ-5D-5L utility (- 0.028, P < 0.05). Clinician-rated severity was moderately associated with both EQ-5D-5L and SDS, but these associations were not statistically significant.

Conclusions

Patients were consistent in evaluating the impacts of possible TD on their lives, whether based on subjective ratings ("none", "some", "a lot") or standardized instruments (EQ-5D-5L, SDS). Clinician-rated severity of TD may not always correlate with patient perceptions of the significance of TD.

Project description:Abstract Background: Valbenazine is a novel and highly selective vesicular monoamine transporter 2 (VMAT2) inhibitor that is being evaluated for the treatment of tardive dyskinesia (TD), a persistent movement disorder resulting from exposure to antipsychotics or other dopamine receptor blocking agents (DRBAs). The efficacy of valbenazine in treating TD was demonstrated in a Phase 3 clinical trial (KINECT 3; NCT02274558), which included subjects with underlying schizophrenia/schizoaffective disorder or mood disorder. Further analyses of data from that trial were conducted to explore the efficacy of valbenazine across diagnostic subgroups. Methods: Subjects in this 6-week, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial were randomized 1:1:1 to once-daily valbenazine 80 mg, valbenazine 40 mg, or placebo. The primary endpoint was change from baseline to Week 6 on the Abnormal Involuntary Movement Scale (AIMS) total score (items 1–7) for valbenazine 80 mg vs placebo in the intent-to-treat (ITT) population. AIMs were videotaped and ratings were conducted by central raters blind to study visit and group. Additional outcomes included AIMS total score change (40 mg vs placebo) and Clinical Global Impression of Change-Tardive Dyskinesia (CGI TD) score (80 and 40 mg vs placebo) at Week 6. In addition to being evaluated in the ITT population, these outcomes were analyzed in subgroups categorized by underlying psychiatric diagnosis (schizophrenia/schizoaffective disorder or mood disorder). Results: At Week 6 in the ITT population (N = 225), AIMS score improvement was significantly greater with valbenazine 80 mg than placebo (least squares [LS] mean change from baseline: 80 mg, 3.2; placebo, −0.1; P < .0001). AIMS score change at Week 6 for valbenazine 40 mg (1.9) was also greater than placebo (P = .0021). Statistical testing was not conducted in the subgroups, but the magnitude of AIMS improvement in these patients was comparable to results in the overall ITT population: schizophrenia/schizoaffective disorder (n = 148; mean change from baseline: 80 mg, −3.1; 40 mg, −1.5; placebo, +0.4); mood disorder (n = 77; 80 mg, 3.6; 40 mg, −2.5; placebo, −0.7). CGI-TD scores at Week 6 in the ITT population indicated greater global improvement with valbenazine than placebo, but between-group differences were not statistically significant (LS mean scores: 80 mg, 2.9; 40 mg, 2.9; placebo, 3.2). CGI-TD outcomes in the subgroups were as follows: schizophrenia/schizoaffective disorder (mean scores: 80 mg, 3.0; 40 mg, 2.9; placebo, 3.1); mood disorder (80 mg, 2.7; 40 mg, 2.9; placebo, 3.2). Psychiatric status remained stable during the 6-week double-blind treatment period. Conclusion: Once-daily treatment with valbenazine improved TD regardless of underlying psychiatric diagnosis.

Project description:Tardive dyskinesia (TD), a movement disorder associated with antipsychotics, most frequently affects the lower face and jaw muscles, but can also affect walking, breathing and use of the hands and limbs. Knowledge of TD among physicians may be limited, and the pathophysiology of TD is poorly understood. We conducted this review to summarise the current knowledge surrounding the pathophysiology of TD and present recommendations for prevention and treatment based on a literature search and roundtable discussion attended by psychiatrists in Japan. It has been suggested that dopamine hypersensitivity, damaged gamma-aminobutyric acidergic neurons and/or increased production of reactive oxygen species may contribute to development of TD. Symptoms can profoundly affect everyday life; patients who develop TD have poorer prognoses, worse health-related quality of life, greater social withdrawal and higher mortality than patients without TD. Traditional treatment options include dietary supplements, although evidence for their effectiveness is low. Among pharmaceutical interventions, there is moderate evidence that switching to the second-generation antipsychotic clozapine, which has a lower affinity for dopamine D2 receptors than other antipsychotics, may improve symptoms. Vesicular monoamine transporter 2 (VMAT-2) inhibitors, which oppose the increased dopaminergic activity associated with prolonged antipsychotic use by interfering with dopamine uptake and storage, have the strongest evidence for efficacy. VMAT-2 inhibitors are approved in the United States for the treatment of TD, and the first VMAT-2 inhibitor was approved in Japan for this indication in March 2022. Most guidelines recommend treating TD by first reducing the dose of antipsychotics or switching to clozapine or other second-generation antipsychotics, which have a lower association with TD than first-generation antipsychotics. We recommend focusing on prevention and monitoring for TD when prescribing antipsychotics, given that TD is often irreversible. Physicians should treat with antipsychotics only when necessary and at the lowest effective dose, and frequently monitor for TD symptoms.Plain language summaryPlain Language Summary (In Japanese).Visual summaryVisual Summary (In Japanese).

Project description:BackgroundTardive dyskinesia (TD) is a common side effect of antipsychotic treatment. This movement disorder consists of orofacial and limb-truncal components. The present study is aimed at investigating the role of serotonin receptors (HTR) in modulating tardive dyskinesia by genotyping patients with schizophrenia.MethodsA set of 29 SNPs of genes of serotonin receptors HTR1A, HTR1B, HTR2A, HTR2C, HTR3A, HTR3B, and HTR6 was studied in a population of 449 Caucasians (226 females and 223 males) with verified clinical diagnosis of schizophrenia (according to ICD-10: F20). Five SNPs were excluded because of low minor allele frequency or for not passing the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium test. Affinity of antipsychotics to 5-HT2 receptors was defined according to previous publications. Genotyping was carried out with SEQUENOM Mass Array Analyzer 4.ResultsStatistically significant associations of rs1928040 of HTR2A gene in groups of patients with orofacial type of TD and total diagnosis of TD was found for alleles, and a statistical trend for genotypes. Moreover, statistically significant associations were discovered in the female group for rs1801412 of HTR2C for alleles and genotypes. Excluding patients who used HTR2A, respectively, HTR2C antagonists changed little to the associations of HTR2A polymorphisms, but caused a major change of the magnitude of the association of HTR2C variants. Due to the low patient numbers, these sub-analyses did not have significant results.ConclusionWe found significant associations in rs1928040 of HTR2A and for rs1801412 of X-bound HTR2C in female patients. The associations were particularly related to the orofacial type of TD. Excluding patients using relevant antagonists particularly affected rs1801412, but not rs1928040-related associations. This suggest that rs1801412 is directly or indirectly linked to the functioning of HTR2C. Further study of variants of the HTR2C gene in a larger group of male patients who were not using HTR2C antagonists is necessary in order to verify a possible functional role of this receptor.
