Post-Authorization Safety Surveillance Study of Asenapine in Participants With Bipolar Disorder (P08307)

Number of Participants with Schizophrenia with Identified and Potential Clinically Important Risks

When enrollment and participant exposure reaches a level that adequate power (80%) is achieved according to pre-defined power calculations, risk incidence with use of asenapine in participants diagnosed with schizophrenia with no prior and/or concomitant diagnosis of bipolar disorder will be analyzed. Identified and potential clinically important risks will include: extrapyramidal symptoms, somnolence and sedation, neuroleptic malignant syndrome, rhabdomyolysis, seizure, hyperprolactinaemia,orthostatic hypotension, neutropenia, allergic reactions, dyslipidaemia and diabetes mellitus with the use of asenapine versus risperidone or olanzapine

Time frame: Approximately 1 year

Number of Participants without Diagnoses of Schizophrenia or Bipolar Disorder with Identified and Potential Clinically Important Risks

When enrollment and participant exposure reaches a level that adequate power (80%) is achieved according to pre-defined power calculations, risk incidence with use of asenapine in participants with no prior and/or concomitant diagnoses of bipolar disorder or schizophrenia, but diagnosed with i) Alzheimer's disease, ii) other diagnoses - mental disorders or iii) no diagnosis, will be analyzed. Identified and potential clinically important risks will include: extrapyramidal symptoms, somnolence and sedation, neuroleptic malignant syndrome, rhabdomyolysis, seizure, hyperprolactinaemia,orthostatic hypotension, neutropenia, allergic reactions, dyslipidaemia and diabetes mellitus with the use of asenapine

Time frame: Approximately 1 year
