Study acronymCOGSCHIZ
Study objectives1. Does successful treatment of symptoms of schizophrenia produce measurable changes at the brain level?
2. Are there brain predictors of the clinical response to cognitive behaviour therapy in schizophrenia?

Please note that as of 19/01/2007 the anticipated end date of this trial has now been shortened to 30/03/2007. The initial anticipated end date of your trial was 30/06/2007.
Ethics approval(s)Not provided at time of registration
Health condition(s) or problem(s) studiedSchizophrenia
InterventionFunctional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) will be applied to investigate brain functions of 60 patients with schizophrenia, 30 of whom will undergo cognitive behaviour therapy. All patients will be scanned twice, 8 to 9 months apart, during a series of tasks known or likely to be sensitive to symptoms of schizophrenia.

Control data will also be obtained from 20 patients with schizophrenia who have shown a good response to their antipsychotic medication and 20 healthy subjects.
Intervention typeOther
Primary outcome measure1. Blood-oxygenation-level-dependent response in cortical and sub-cortical regions
2. Symptom scores
Secondary outcome measuresNo secondary outcome measures
