Embodiment 1
[0577] A pharmaceutical composition is prepared by combining ziprasidone with a CRF antagonist, either (a) 4-(1-ethyl-propoxy)-3,6 in a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier -Dimethyl-2-(2,4,6-trimethylphenoxy)-pyridine, (b) (3,6-dimethyl-2-(2,4,6-trimethyl-benzene Oxy)-pyridin-4-yl)-(1-ethyl-propyl)-amine, (c)(3,6-dimethyl-2-(4-chloro-2,6-dimethyl- Phenoxy)-pyridin-4-yl)-(1-ethyl-propyl)-amine, or (d) 5-(1-ethyl-propoxy)-7-methyl-1-( 2,6-Dimethyl-4-chlorophenyl)-1-4-dihydro-2H-3-oxa-1,8-naphthyridine. The composition comprises corresponding amounts of ziprasidone and CRF antagonist to provide about 20 mg to about 160 mg of ziprasidone and about 0.1 to 100 mg of CRF antagonist on a daily basis. The composition is administered to patients once a day, twice a day, three times a day or four times a day for treating schizophrenia.
Embodiment 2
[0579] Combination administration of ziprasidone and CRF antagonists
[0580] A prospective, open-label, randomized, scaled-dose multicentre study was performed comparing IM (intramuscular injection) with and without a CRF antagonist at the dose of CRF antagonist described in Example 1. ) Effectiveness of ziprasidone in improving anxiety and psychosis in patients with psychotic disorders. Ziprasidone is administered by intramuscular injection in doses of 10 or 20 mg, with additional daily doses up to a maximum of 40 mg if necessary.
[0581] About half of the ziprasidone-treated patients received at least one dose of the CRF antagonist of Example 1 during IM therapy. The primary efficacy outcome was the mean change from baseline in scores on the Brief Psychiatric Rating Scale (BPRS), CGI-S, and CGI-Improvement (CGI-I) scores. BPRS, CGI-S, and CGI-I were assessed every 24 hours during IM treatment and at baseline at the end of day 3.
