Abstract
Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) is a pervasive disabling disorder that may overlap with other psychiatric conditions, including anorexia nervosa. Recent guidelines recommend low doses of second-generation antipsychotics as add-on therapy to selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) for those patients presenting OCD who display residual symptomatology. Here we report a clinical case of a 45-years-old woman affected by severe OCD in comorbidity with anorexia nervosa, restrictive type (AN-r), treated with fluoxetine (titrated up to 40 mg/day) in augmentation with low doses of lurasidone (37 mg/day). At baseline and during a 6 months-follow-up we administered Clinical Global Impression-Severity, Symptom Checklist-90 items, Y-BOCS-II (Yale-Brown Obsessive Compulsive Scale) and EDI-3 (Eating Disorder Inventory). After 1 month of augmentation treatment, a clinically significant response was observed on obsessive symptoms at Y-BOCS-II (≥35% Y-BOCS reduction) and eating symptomatology at EDI-3. Full remission was reported after 3 months (Y-BOCS scoring ≤14) ( P < 0.01). Further longitudinal and real-world effectiveness studies should be implemented to confirm these novel results, to investigate the potential of lurasidone as add-on strategy to SSRI in poor responder OCD patients, including treatment-resistant-OCD (tr-OCD), as well as in improving eating disorder symptomatology, whereas there is comorbidity with AN-r.

Examining Lurasidone Efficacy in Patients with Schizophrenia Spectrum Illness and Concurrent Alcohol and Substance Use Disorder: A Prospective, Multicentric, Real-World Investigation. J Clin Med 2024; 13:2206. [PMID: 38673478 PMCID: PMC11051375 DOI: 10.3390/jcm13082206] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/09/2024] [Revised: 03/18/2024] [Accepted: 04/09/2024] [Indexed: 04/28/2024] Open
Abstract
Background: Dual disorders (DD) entail the coexistence of a substance use disorder (SUD) and another mental health condition, often within psychotic and affective disorders. This study aims to evaluate lurasidone, an innovative atypical antipsychotic, in individuals diagnosed with schizophrenia spectrum disorder and concurrent comorbidities of alcohol use disorder/substance use disorder (AUD/SUD). Methods: A cohort of 23 subjects diagnosed with schizophrenia spectrum disorder and comorbid AUD/SUD underwent psychometric assessments at baseline (T0) and one-month (T1) post-lurasidone initiation. Results: Lurasidone exhibited significant reductions in psychopathological burden, evidenced by decreased total PANSS scores (Z = 2.574, p = 0.011). Positive symptoms, substance craving (VAS Craving; Z = 3.202, p = 0.001), and aggressivity (MOAS scale; Z = 2.000, p = 0.050) were notably reduced. Clinical Global Impression (CGI) scores significantly improved (Z = 2.934, p = 0.003). Quality of life enhancements were observed in SF-36 subscales (energy, emotional well-being, and social functioning) (p < 0.05) and Q-LES-Q-SF scale (Z = -2.341, p = 0.021). A safety analysis indicated lurasidone's good tolerability, with only 8.7% reporting discontinuation due to side effects. Conclusions: This study offers initial evidence supporting lurasidone's efficacy and safety in dual diagnoses, highlighting positive effects on psychopathology, substance craving, and quality of life. These findings emphasize the need for tailored, comprehensive treatment strategies in managing the complexities of this patient population.

Abstract
Lurasidone is a novel atypical antipsychotic drug acting on dopaminergic, serotonergic and noradrenergic receptors; it is applied for the long-term treatment of schizophrenia and depression in patients with bipolar disorders. We aimed at performing a comparative study on the influence of chronic treatment with lurasidone on the expression of cytochrome P450 enzymes in the liver and in peripheral blood lymphocytes, and to evaluate the relationship between changes in the expression of CYP enzymes in the two experimental models. The obtained results show a fairly similar expression pattern of the main CYP enzymes in the rat livers and lymphocytes, and they indicate that in the liver, lurasidone exerts an inhibitory effect on the activity, protein and mRNA levels of CYP2B1/2 (not CYP2B2 mRNA), CYP2C11 and CYP2E1, while in the case of CYP3A1 and CYP3A2, it causes enzyme induction. At the same time, lurasidone decreases the expression of CYP2B, CYP2C11 (CYP2C11 protein only) and CYP2E1 but increases that of CYP3A2 (not CYP3A1) in lymphocyte cells. In conclusion, chronic treatment with lurasidone simultaneously and in the same way influences the expression and activity of CYP2B, CYP2C11, CYP2E1 and CYP3A2 in the liver and peripheral blood lymphocytes of rats. Thus, the lymphocyte cytochrome P450 profile may be utilized as an indicator of the hepatic cytochrome P450 profile in further clinical studies with lurasidone, and lymphocytes may serve as easily available surrogates for examining the impact of new drugs and chronic in vivo treatments on CYP enzyme expression, as well as to estimate drug-drug interactions and toxicity risk.

Safety and effectiveness of lurasidone in the treatment of Chinese schizophrenia patients: An interim analysis of post-marketing surveillance. World J Psychiatry 2023; 13:937-948. [DOI: 10.5498/wjp.v13.i11.937] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/23/2023] [Revised: 10/11/2023] [Accepted: 10/27/2023] [Indexed: 11/17/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Schizophrenia is a psychiatric disorder characterized by chronic or recurrent symptoms. Lurasidone was licensed in China in 2019 for the treatment of adult schizophrenia in adults with a maximum dose of 80 mg/d. However, post-market surveillance (PMS) with an adequate sample size is required for further validation of the drug’s safety profile and effectiveness.
AIM To conduct PMS in real-world clinical settings and evaluate the safety and effectiveness of lurasidone in the Chinese population.
METHODS A prospective, multicenter, open-label, 12-wk surveillance was conducted in mainland China. All patients with schizophrenia from 10 sites who had begun medication with lurasidone between September 2019 and August 2022 were eligible for enrollment. Safety assessments included adverse events (AEs), adverse drug reactions (ADRs), extrapyramidal symptoms (EPS), akathisia, use of EPS drugs, weight gain, and laboratory values as metabolic parameters and the QTc interval. The effectiveness was assessed using the brief psychiatric rating scale (BPRS) from baseline to the end of treatment.
RESULTS A total of 965 patients were enrolled in the full analysis set and 894 in the safety set in this interim analysis. The average daily dose was 61.7 ± 19.08 mg (mean ± SD) during the treatment. AEs and ADRs were experienced by 101 patients (11.3%) and 78 patients (8.7%), respectively, which were mostly mild. EPS occurred in 25 individuals with a 2.8% incidence, including akathisia in 20 individuals (2.2%). Moreover, 59 patients received drugs for treating EPS during the treatment, with an incidence of 6.6% which dropped to 5.4% at the end of the treatment. The average weight change was 0.20 ± 2.36 kg (P = 0.01687) with 0.8% of patients showing a weight gain of ≥ 7% at week 12 compared with that at the baseline. The mean values of metabolic parameters and the QTc interval at baseline and week 12 were within normal ranges. The mean changes in total BPRS scores were -8.9 ± 9.76 (n = 959), -13.5 ± 12.29 (n = 959), and -16.8 ± 13.97 (n = 959) after 2/4, 6/8, and 12 wk, respectively (P < 0.001 for each visit compared with the baseline) using the last-observation-carried-forward method.
CONCLUSION The interim analysis of the PMS of adult patients with schizophrenia demonstrate the safety and effectiveness of lurasidone in the Chinese population. No new safety or efficacy concerns were identified.

Abstract
Lurasidone is an antipsychotic medication that blocks dopamine D2 and serotonin 5-hydroxy-tryptamine (5-HT)2A receptors and affects other serotoninergic and noradrenergic receptors. It has rapid absorption and linear pharmacokinetics. The rates of metabolic syndrome for patients taking lurasidone are comparable to placebo groups. Lurasidone is a safe and effective treatment for patients with acute schizophrenia and bipolar depression. It has been found to improve the brief psychiatric rating scale and other secondary measures in schizophrenic patients and reduce depressive symptoms in bipolar I depression. The once-daily administration of lurasidone is generally well-tolerated and does not cause clinically significant differences in extrapyramidal symptoms, adverse effects, or weight gain compared to a placebo. However, lurasidone's effectiveness in combination with lithium or valproate has been mixed. Further research is needed to determine optimal dosing, treatment duration, and combination with other mood stabilizers. Long-term safety and effectiveness and its use in different subpopulations should also be evaluated.

Abstract
The present work demonstrated the fabrication and the electrochemical characterization of novel printed electrochemical sensors integrated with an innovative nanosensing platform based on the synergic electrocatalytic effect of iron oxide nanoparticles (FeONPs) and reduced graphene oxide (rGO) for precise voltammetric determination of the antipsychotic drug lurasidone hydrochloride (LUH). The features of the electrode surface fabricated using the ordinary inkjet printer were characterized by scanning electron microscopy and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. Among different ink formulations, integration of the printing ink with the ratio 15 mg FeONPs and 20 mg rGO was found to be the most appropriate for sensitive quantification of LUH in biological fluids and pharmaceutical formulations in the presence of LUH degradation products. Under the optimized experimental and electroanalytical parameters, the recorded square-wave voltammograms were correlated to LUH within the linear concentration ranging from 50 to 2150 ng mL-1 with detection limit and limit of quantification values of 15.64 and 47.39 ng mL-1, respectively. Based on the cyclic voltammograms recorded for LUH at different scan rates, the electrode reaction was assumed to be a diffusion reaction mechanism accompanied by the transfer of two electrons/protons through the oxidation of the five-membered ring nitrogen atom as assumed by the molecular orbital calculations carried out on the LUH molecule. The C max of LUH and the efficiency of the fabricated sensors enabled their clinical application for monitoring LUH in human biological fluids and pharmaceutical formulations in the presence of degradants for diverse quality control applications and green chemistry analysis.

Abstract
To test the effect of prophylactic use of benzhexol in schizophrenia patients after risperidone treatment. Sixty-nine drug naïve schizophrenia patients were recruited. All patients were administered risperidone. Patients in the benzhexol group were given a benzhexol tablet of 2 mg bid daily. The controls received a placebo tablet of 2 mg bid daily. The primary outcome measured using the Extrapyramidal Symptoms Rating Scale (ESRS). The Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS) and the Brief Psychiatric Rating Scale (BPRS) measured secondary outcome. There were significant time and group effects on the ESRS scores of the two groups. The post hoc analysis yielded significant differences at 1, 2, 4, and 8 weeks between the two groups. There was a significant time effect on the PANSS scores of the two groups. No significant group and interaction effects on the PANSS scores of the two groups. There was a significant time effect on the BPRS scores of the two groups. No serious adverse events were found in this study. Prophylactic use of benzhexol reduced extrapyramidal symptom in schizophrenia patients after risperidone treatment and did not affect the antipsychotic action of risperidone.

A Comparison with Other Novel Neuroleptics and Significance for Drug Treatment of Schizophrenia. Cells 2022; 11:cells11213513. [PMID: 36359909 PMCID: PMC9658917 DOI: 10.3390/cells11213513] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/07/2022] [Revised: 11/02/2022] [Accepted: 11/04/2022] [Indexed: 11/09/2022] Open
Abstract
The aim of this work was to study the effect of prolonged lurasidone administration on the cytochrome 2D (CYP2D) expression and activity in the rat liver and selected brain structures involved in the therapeutic or side effects of this neuroleptic. Male Wistar rats received lurasidone (1 mg/kg ip.) for two weeks. The activity of CYP2D was measured in brain and liver microsomes as the rate of bufuralol 1′-hydroxylation. The CYP2D protein level was determined in microsomes by Western blot analysis. The CYP2D gene expression was estimated in liver tissue by a qRT-PCR method. Lurasidone decreased the activity and protein level of CYP2D in the frontal cortex but increased them in the striatum, nucleus accumbens, brain stem, substantia nigra, and the remainder of the brain. The neuroleptic did not affect CYP2D in the hippocampus, hypothalamus, and cerebellum. In the liver, lurasidone did not affect the CYP2D activity and protein level, though it enhanced the mRNA of CYP2D1 without affecting that of CYP2D2, CYP2D3, CYP2D4, and CYP2D5. In conclusion, lurasidone regulates brain (but not liver) CYP2D activity/protein level in a region-dependent manner, which is similar to that of other atypical neuroleptics (iloperidone and asenapine) as concerns the frontal cortex (down-regulation) and nigrostriatal pathway (up-regulation) and may be of pharmacological significance. However, further molecular studies with selective receptor agonists are necessary to find out which individual monoaminergic receptors/signaling pathways are involved in the regulation of the rat CYP2D4 and human CYP2D6 enzyme in particular brain structures.

New Atypical Antipsychotics in the Treatment of Schizophrenia and Depression. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms231810624. [PMID: 36142523 PMCID: PMC9500595 DOI: 10.3390/ijms231810624] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/28/2022] [Revised: 09/09/2022] [Accepted: 09/09/2022] [Indexed: 11/25/2022] Open
Abstract
Schizophrenia and depression are heterogeneous disorders. The complex pathomechanism of the diseases imply that medication responses vary across patients. Many psychotropic drugs are available but achieving optimal therapeutic effect can be challenging. The evidence correlates well with clinical observations, suggesting that new atypical antipsychotic drugs are effective against negative and cognitive symptoms of schizophrenia, as well as against affective symptoms observed in depression. The purpose of this review presents the background and evidence for the use of the new second/third-generation antipsychotics (aripiprazole, cariprazine, lurasidone, asenapine, brexpiprazole, lumateperone, pimavanserin) in treatment of schizophrenia and depression. We have first provided a brief overview of the major neurobiological underpinnings of schizophrenia and depression. We then shortly discuss efficacy, safety and limitations of ongoing pharmacotherapy used in depression and schizophrenia. Mainly, we have focused this review on the therapeutic potential of new atypical antipsychotic drugs—currently existing—to be effective in psychotic, as well as in affective disorders.

Abstract
Non-invasive nose-to-brain delivery presents a competitive strategy for effective drug targeting. This strategy can potentially evade the blood-brain barrier (BBB) depending on the pathway the drug and/or drug/micelle composite travels, thereby allowing direct drug delivery to the brain. This delivery strategy was employed for lurasidone, a clinically USFDA-approved neurotherapeutic molecule in bipolar disorders and schizophrenia treatments. The aim of this study was to develop mixed polymeric micelles of lurasidone HCl (LH) for targeted brain delivery via intranasal route. Lurasidone HCl-loaded mixed micelles (LHMM) were prepared by solvent evaporation method and optimized by 32 factorial design to quantify the effects of excipients on micelle size and entrapment efficiency. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy helped in scrutinizing drug-excipient interactions whereas transmission electron microscopy images showed particle size and shape. Further, LHMM and LHMM hydrogel were evaluated for in vitro diffusion, histopathology, ex vivo permeation, in vivo pharmacokinetics and stability studies. Optimized LHMM exhibited 175 nm particle size and 97.8% entrapment efficiency with improved in vitro drug diffusion (81%). LHMM hydrogel showed 79% ex vivo drug permeation without any significant signs of nasociliary toxicity to sheep nasal mucosa. Single dose in vivo pharmacokinetic studies showed improved therapeutic concentration of drug in the brain post intranasal administration with 9.5 ± 0.21 μg/mL Cmax and T1/2 of 19.1 ± 0.08 h as compared to pure drug. LHMM, when administered by intranasal route, demonstrated significant increase in the drug targeting efficiency as well as potential (%DTE and %DTP) of drug as compared to pure lurasidone. Thus, nanosized mixed micelles were useful in effective brain delivery of lurasidone HCl via intranasal route. Graphical abstract.

Abstract
Optimal dose management of psychotropic drugs during the perinatal period reduces the risk for recurrence of mood episodes in women with Bipolar Disorder. Physiological changes during pregnancy are associated with decreases in the plasma concentrations of the majority of mood stabilizing medications. Regular symptom and drug concentration monitoring for lithium and anticonvulsants with reflexive dose adjustment improves the probability of sustained symptom remission across pregnancy. The elimination clearance trajectory across pregnancy for psychotropics dictates the frequency of laboratory monitoring and dose adjustment. The literature on the pharmacokinetics of lithium, lamotrigine, carbamazepine and atypical antipsychotics during pregnancy and postpartum are reviewed, recommendations for symptom and laboratory monitoring are proposed and recommendations for dose adjustments are presented.

Abstract
In last two decades, the lipid nanocarriers have been extensively investigated for their drug targeting efficiency towards the critical areas of the human body like CNS, cardiac region, tumor cells, etc. Owing to the flexibility and biocompatibility, the lipid-based nanocarriers, including nanoemulsion, liposomes, SLN, NLC etc. have gained much attention among various other nanocarrier systems for brain targeting of bioactives. Across different lipid nanocarriers, NLC remains to be the safest, stable, biocompatible and cost-effective drug carrier system with high encapsulation efficiency. Drug delivery to the brain always remains a challenging issue for scientists due to the complex structure and various barrier mechanisms surrounding the brain. The application of a suitable nanocarrier system and the use of any alternative route of drug administration like nose-to-brain drug delivery could overcome the hurdle and improves the therapeutic efficiency of CNS acting drugs thereof. NLC, a second-generation lipid nanocarrier, upsurges the drug permeation across the BBB due to its unique structural properties. The biocompatible lipid matrix and nano-size make it an ideal drug carrier for brain targeting. It offers many advantages over other drug carrier systems, including ease of manufacturing and scale-up to industrial level, higher drug targeting, high drug loading, control drug release, compatibility with a wide range of drug substances, non-toxic and non-irritant behavior. This review highlights recent progresses towards the development of NLC for brain targeting of bioactives with particular reference to its surface modifications, formulations aspects, pharmacokinetic behavior and efficacy towards the treatment of various neurological disorders like AD, PD, schizophrenia, epilepsy, brain cancer, CNS infection (viral and fungal), multiple sclerosis, cerebral ischemia, and cerebral malaria. This work describes in detail the role and application of NLC, along with its different fabrication techniques and associated limitations. Specific emphasis is given to compile a summary and graphical data on the area explored by scientists and researchers worldwide towards the treatment of neurological disorders with or without NLC. The article also highlights a brief insight into two prime approaches for brain targeting, including drug delivery across BBB and direct nose-to-brain drug delivery along with the current global status of specific neurological disorders.

Abstract
Introduction Tardive syndrome (TS) is an often irreversible movement disorder caused by dopamine receptor-blocking agents (DRBAs). Although TS are well recognized to occur with typical antipsychotics, less well appreciated is that atypical antipsychotics also carry a risk of TS. Methods Case series. Results We describe 4 patients who developed tardive dystonia, tardive akathisia, and drug-induced parkinsonism with the use of the atypical antipsychotic, lurasidone, which was U.S. Food and Drug Administration approved in 2013 for use in bipolar disorder and schizophrenia. Conclusion Movement disorders are reported as a rare side effect of lurasidone, and, as such, prescribers may perceive a false sense of security regarding this potential complication. Our cases indicate that this relatively new atypical antipsychotic may cause irreversible disabling TS as well as parkinsonism. Caution must be taken when prescribing lurasidone.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Akathisia is a common and distressing movement disorder that can be associated with the use of antipsychotics. It is characterized by a subjective (inner restlessness) and an objective (excessive movements) component. Akathisia can have a negative impact on clinical outcome and even lead to treatment discontinuation. Although medication-induced akathisia is more commonly associated with the use of first-generation antipsychotics (FGAs), it also occurs with second-generation antipsychotics (SGAs), including the newly approved antipsychotics (NAPs) asenapine, lurasidone, iloperidone, cariprazine, and brexpiprazole. Until now, no meta-analysis has been published on the risk of akathisia for all NAPs, as monotherapy or adjunctive treatment, in patients with a severe mental illness. OBJECTIVE The primary objectives of this systematic review and meta-analysis were to (i) compare akathisia incidence rates of the NAPs, as monotherapy or adjunctive treatment, in adult patients with a severe mental illness (i.e., schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, or major depressive disorder), using data from published and unpublished randomized controlled trials; and (ii) examine the role of several study characteristics explaining differences in akathisia incidence rates between studies. METHODS A systematic literature search, using the PubMed, EMBASE, and Cochrane Library databases (until October 2018), was conducted for English-language placebo- as well as active-controlled clinical trials, including subjective (percentage of patients reporting akathisia) and/or scale-defined medication-induced akathisia incidence rates with NAPs (as monotherapy or as adjunctive treatment) in adult patients with schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, or major depressive disorder. Additional unpublished clinical trials were identified through the ClinicalTrials.gov electronic database. Two meta-analyses (incidence rates and odds ratio [OR] [placebo vs. active] of medication-induced akathisia with NAPs) were performed to obtain an optimal estimation of akathisia risks of adult patients with a severe mental illness under these treatment conditions and to assess the role of study characteristics. RESULTS Two hundred and thirteen reports were selected as potentially eligible for our meta-analysis. Of these, 48 met the inclusion criteria. Eight records, identified through the ClinicalTrials.gov database and cross-referencing, and which fulfilled the inclusion criteria, were added, resulting in a total of 56 records (iloperidone = 5, asenapine = 11, lurasidone = 15, brexpiprazole = 13, cariprazine = 12). The estimated weighted mean incidence rate of akathisia was 7.7% (95% confidence interval [CI] 6.5-9.1), with estimates being 3.9% (95% CI 2.4-6.3) for iloperidone, 6.8% (95% CI 5.1-9.0) for asenapine, 10.0% (95% CI 7.4-13.5) for brexpiprazole, 12.7% (95% CI 10.1-16.1) for lurasidone, and 17.2% (95% CI 13.4-22.1) for cariprazine. After Tukey-adjustment for multiple testing, the incidence rate of akathisia was significantly (p < 0.05) lower for iloperidone than for brexpiprazole, lurasidone, and cariprazine. In addition, the incidence rate of akathisia was significantly (p < 0.05) lower for asenapine than for lurasidone and cariprazine. Finally, the incidence rate of akathisia was significantly (p < 0.05) lower for brexpiprazole than for cariprazine. Type of medication (p < 0.0001), diagnosis (p = 0.02), and race (p = 0.0003) significantly explained part of the heterogeneity of the incidence estimates of akathisia between studies. The estimated weighted OR of akathisia under medication, compared with placebo, was 2.43 (95% CI 1.91-3.10). The OR was smallest for iloperidone (OR 1.20; 95% CI 0.42-3.45) and increased for brexpiprazole (OR 2.04; 95% CI 1.09-3.83), asenapine (OR 2.37; 95% CI 1.32-4.27), lurasidone (OR 3.74; 95% CI 2.32-6.02), and cariprazine (OR 4.35; 95% CI 2.80-6.75). Only type of medication (p = 0.03) explained systematic differences in the OR for akathisia between placebo versus active treatment across studies. After Tukey-adjustment for multiple testing, no significant differences between these ORs were found. The severity of akathisia with NAPs generally is mild to moderate, only leading to treatment discontinuation in a minority of cases (< 5%). CONCLUSIONS The use of a NAP raises the akathisia risk more than two-fold when compared with patients receiving placebo. Although distinctions between the different NAPs were not clear in placebo-controlled trials, the results of our meta-analyses and systematic review generally indicate that these differences more than likely reflect real differences, with iloperidone showing the most and cariprazine showing the least benign akathisia profile. Moreover, due to patient characteristics and methodological issues, incidence rates of akathisia with NAPs found in this meta-analysis may even be an underestimation of true incidence rates.

Abstract
5-HT7 receptors have been suggested to play a role in the regulation of psychiatric disorders. The experimental literature however is not fully consistent on this possibility. Two selective 5-HT7 receptor antagonists, DR-4004 and SB-269970, were evaluated in mouse models used to detect drugs used to treat anxiety, depression, or schizophrenia. A 5-HT-induced hypothermia assay was used to define the doses of DR-4004 and SB-269970 predicted to impact 5-HT7 receptors in the brain in vivo. 5-HT produced hypothermia in wildtype mice by either i.p. or i.c.v. routes but did not in 5-HT7 receptor knockout mice. 5-HT-induced hypothermia was not attenuated by drugs selectively blocking alpha1 or 5-HT1A receptors. Doses of DR-4004 and SB-269970 that blocked 5-HT-induced hypothermia, did not display significant anxiolytic-like (elevated plus maze; vogel conflict) or antidepressant-like efficacy (tail-suspension test) in mouse models. These compounds did demonstrate some antipsychotic-like properties in the PCP-induced hyperactivity assay and anxiolytic/anti-stress effects in the stress-induced cGMP assay. Negative findings were substantiated by positive control drugs that were active in each assay system. We conclude that 5-HT-induced hypothermia can be used to estimate blockade of central 5-HT7 receptors. Effects of DR-4004 and SB-269970 in animal models are generally consistent with the experimental literature that the evidence is mixed or not robust regarding the potential efficacy of 5-HT7 receptor antagonism in the treatment of anxiety, depression, or schizophrenia.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION A burgeoning number of systematic reviews considering lurasidone in the treatment of bipolar depression have occurred since its Food and Drug Administration extended approval in 2013. While a paucity of available quantitative evidence still precludes preliminary meta-analysis on the matter, the present quality assessment of systematic review of systematic reviews, nonetheless, aims at highlighting current essential information on the topic. METHODS Both published and unpublished systematic reviews about lurasidone mono- or adjunctive therapy in the treatment of bipolar depression were searched by two independent authors inquiring PubMed/Cochrane/Embase/Scopus from inception until October 2016. RESULTS Twelve included systematic reviews were of moderate-to-high quality and consistent in covering the handful of RCTs available to date, suggesting the promising efficacy, safety, and tolerability profile of lurasidone. Concordance on the drug profile seems to be corroborated by a steadily increasing number of convergent qualitative reports on the matter. LIMITATIONS Publication, sponsorship, language, citation, and measurement biases. CONCLUSIONS Despite being preliminary in nature, this overview stipulates the effectiveness of lurasidone in the acute treatment of Type I bipolar depression overall. As outlined by most of the reviewed evidence, recommendations for future research should include further controlled trials of extended duration.
