Schizophrenia – Current Treatment – Treatment Algorithms: Claims Data Analysis – Schizophrenia (US)

Schizophrenia is a chronic psychiatric disorder that requires sustained pharmacologic management to reduce psychotic episodes and maintain long-term symptom stability. It is a highly drug-treated condition that uses an array of drugs, including atypical and typical antipsychotics, resulting in a complex treatment algorithm. Although generics dominate routine care, the ongoing need for longer-acting and more-effective drugs continues to support the integration of branded drugs (e.g., Otsuka’s Abilify Asimtufii, Teva’s Uzedy) into clinical practice. Our Treatment Algorithms study uses national patient-level claims data to assess the uptake of key therapies in newly diagnosed and recently treated patients, offering insights into the current schizophrenia treatment.

Questions answered

• What patient shares do key therapies and brands garner by line of therapy in newly diagnosed schizophrenia patients? What are the quarterly trends in prescribing among recently treated and newly diagnosed schizophrenia patients?
• How have oral therapies (e.g., Vraylar, Caplyta, Lybalvi) and long-acting injectables (e.g., Abilify Asimtufii, Invega Sustenna, Invega Hafyera) been integrated into the treatment algorithm, and what is their source of business?
• What percentage of schizophrenia patients receive drug therapy within one year of diagnosis, and how quickly? What percentage of patients progress to later lines of therapy within one year of diagnosis?
• What percentage of schizophrenia patients are treated with monotherapy vs. combination therapy? What are the most commonly used combinations?
• What are the product-level compliance and persistency rates among drug-treated patients?
