Not a traditional drug phase: Deep Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (dTMS) H4 coil - Active for Schizophrenia

Antipsychotic-induced metabolic disturbances, especially weight gain, are common in patients with schizophrenia. Furthermore, it is reported significant changes in food intake happened in patients with weight gain after intaking antipsychotics.

Official registry: https://clinicaltrials.gov/study/NCT07805980 · Second Xiangya Hospital of Central South University · enrollment listed as 30

Phase 1 / Phase 2: testing Ocrelizumab infusion for Schizo-Affective Type of Psychosis

Some people who have what doctors currently call schizophrenia or bipolar disease may actually have a brain disease caused by auto-antibodies. Auto-antibodies are produced when the normal defense mechanism of the body goes wrong and begins to attack the body, similar to "friendly fire." Auto-antibodies attack brain receptors and then the person who has this problem begins to have hallucinations and other manifestations of schizophrenia, like feeling that people can see what they are thinking and also feeling that other people do not like them.
