Abstrakt: Background: Cariprazine (CAR), an antipsychotic with partial agonism at the D3 receptor and higher affinity than dopamine, has shown significant procognitive effects in preclinical animal studies. This study systematically reviews CAR's effects on cognitive measures in patients with schizophrenia and bipolar disorder.
Methods: Two independent reviewers systematically searched PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus, and the Cochrane Library up to May 2024, following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis guidelines. Additional studies were found by hand searching the references of included studies. Eligible studies were randomized controlled trials (RCTs) in English that assessed CAR's effects on cognition in patients with schizophrenia or bipolar disorder. Quality was assessed using the Jadad scale.
Results: Out of 139 reports, 5 studies (involving 6,104 patients with schizophrenia or bipolar disorder) were included. In schizophrenia, CAR showed better cognitive outcomes (mainly indirect measures) than placebo (PBO) in both early and late stages. It also outperformed risperidone and aripiprazole in attention-related cognitive tests. In bipolar disorder, CAR improved cognition compared to PBO (also using indirect measures). Most studies found the greatest cognitive benefits with low doses of CAR (1.5-3 mg/d).
Conclusions: CAR improved cognitive measures compared to PBO and other D2 antagonists or partial agonists in RCTs, especially in patients with greater baseline impairment. Thus, CAR may be a promising option for enhancing cognition in schizophrenic and bipolar patients; though, more trials using specific cognitive assessment tools are needed.
