A Double-Blind Trial of Adjunctive Valacyclovir to Improve Cognition in Early Phase Schizophrenia

Indiana University·interventional·Posted Dec 11, 2013·Updated Jan 30, 2019

In Brief

A Phase 2 clinical trial evaluating Valacyclovir HCI 500 mg tablets and placebo for Schizophrenia. Completed, enrolled 170 participants across 13 sites.

Detailed Summary

The primary aim of the study is to determine the efficacy of adjunctive valacyclovir, in comparison to placebo, to improve visual (Brief Visuospatial Memory Test) and working (composite score of the Spatial Span and Letter Number Span tests) memory in individuals who are HSV-1 positive and early in the course of schizophrenia. We hypothesize that individuals who are HSV-1 positive, but not those who are HSV-1 negative, will demonstrate significant valacyclovir efficacy for visual and working memory.
