The National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) awarded a $731,452 Project Grant under CFDA 93.242 (Mental Health Research Grants) to the University of Alabama at Birmingham (UAB) to conduct a multi-center, randomized clinical trial. The goal is to develop a decision support tool using biomarkers to guide the use of the antipsychotic medication clozapine for first-episode psychosis (FEP) patients who are at risk of poor response to first-line antipsychotics. The key biomarkers being evaluated...
The National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) awarded a Project Grant under the Mental Health Research Grants program (CFDA 93.242) to The Feinstein Institutes for Medical Research, a non-profit medical research organization, for $1,217,886 on September 5, 2024. The goal of this 5-year project is to develop a clozapine decision support tool for first-episode psychosis (FEP) patients based on three specific biomarkers: a functional brain scan, a genetics test for weight gain risk, and a genetics...
This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH), under the Mental Health Research Grants program (CFDA 93.242), aims to validate a predictive biomarker in the cerebellar-cortical circuitry for assessing treatment response to antipsychotic medication in patients with first-episode psychosis. The $519,558 award, granted on June 15, 2025, will support a 5-year research project conducted by The Feinstein Institutes for Medical Research. The key objectives are to: 1)...

This Project Grant award from the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH), under CFDA 93.242 - Mental Health Research Grants program, provides $665,508 to the Centre for Addiction and Mental Health (CAMH) in Canada to conduct a multi-center, randomized clinical trial. The goal is to develop a clozapine decision support tool based on biomarkers to improve outcomes for first-episode psychosis patients who do not respond well to conventional first-line antipsychotics. The study will characterize 410 patients using brain imaging and genetic tests to identify those at risk for poor response, then randomize approximately 180 of them to receive either clozapine or a conventional antipsychotic. Key outcomes include clinical response, suicidal thinking, and days of hospitalization. The project will also explore whether brain imaging patterns can distinguish clozapine responders from non-responders. This award runs from September 2024 through July 2029.
