Relationship Between Dopamine D2 Occupancy, Clinical Response, and Side Effects: A Double-Blind PET Study of First-Episode Schizophrenia

TL;DR: The study confirms that D(2) occupancy is an important mediator of response and side effects in antipsychotic treatment, and is consistent with a "target and trigger" hypothesis of antipsychotics action.
Journal ArticleDOI

Serotonin-dopamine interaction and its relevance to schizophrenia

TL;DR: Serotonergic modulation of dopaminergic function provides a viable mechanism for enhancing therapeutics in schizophrenia, but much remains unclear.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Canadian multicenter placebo-controlled study of fixed doses of risperidone and haloperidol in the treatment of chronic schizophrenic patients.

TL;DR: It is suggested that risperidone, at the optimal therapeutic dose of 6 mg/day, produced significant improvement in both positive and negative symptoms without an increase in drug-induced parkinsonian symptoms and with a significant beneficial effect on tardive dyskinesia.
Journal ArticleDOI

Clinical and theoretical implications of 5-HT2 and D2 receptor occupancy of clozapine, risperidone, and olanzapine in schizophrenia.

TL;DR: Clozapine, at doses known to be effective in routine clinical settings, showed a D 2 occupancy clearly lower than that of typical antipsychotics, while risperidone and olanzapine at their usual clinical doses gave the same level of D2 occupancy as low-dose typical antippsychotics.
