Introduction: Cariprazine (CAR) is a potent dopamine receptor partial agonist antipsychotic approved by the EMA and the FDA. To address the uncertainty regarding the effectiveness of hormonal contraceptives during CAR co-administration and whether a second barrier method is necessary, a drug-drug interaction study with an oral contraceptive was conducted post-approval.
Methods: The phase I, fixed-sequence multicenter study involved two periods with 24 patients with schizophrenia, aiming to evaluate the effect of CAR on the pharmacokinetics (PK) of a combined oral contraceptive (COC) containing 30 μg ethinylestradiol (EE) and 150 μg levonorgestrel (LNG).
Background: Cariprazine is metabolised mainly by CYP3A4 and to a lesser extent by CYP2D6.
Aim: This study aimed to evaluate the effects of erythromycin, a moderate cytochrome P450 (CYP)3A4 inhibitor, on the pharmacokinetics of cariprazine in male patients with schizophrenia, and to assess the influence of CYP2D6 phenotypes on cariprazine metabolism.
Methods: Forty-two patients received oral doses of 1.
Introduction: Cariprazine is an atypical dopamine receptor partial agonist antipsychotic available in the form of capsules. Although capsules are one of the most desirable routes of administration, there are certain situations (e. g.

The measurement resulted in vehicle based and infrastructure based sensor data that will be extremely useful for future automotive R&D activities due to the available ground truth for static and dynamic content. The aim of the measurement campaign was twofold.
