Risperidone vs Aripiprazole for Weight Gain in Children with Autism
Recruiting3 awardsPhase 4
Nashville, Tennessee
This trial is comparing two medicines, aripiprazole and risperidone, to see which one causes more weight gain in children with autism. The study focuses on children under 18 who have behavior problems like irritability and aggression. These medicines help by calming brain activity to improve behavior. The main goal is to find out which medicine leads to less weight gain over a few months. Aripiprazole and risperidone are both FDA-approved for treating irritability in children with autism.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need insurance to participate in a trial?
Almost all clinical trials will cover the cost of the 'trial drug' — so no insurance is required for this. For trials where this trial drug is given alongside an already-approved medication, there may be a cost (which your insurance would normally cover).
Is there any support for travel costs?
Many of the teams running clinical trials will cover the cost of transportation to-and-from their care center.
Will I know what medication I am taking?
This depends on the specific study. If you're worried about receiving a placebo, you can actively filter out these trials using our search.
How long do clinical trials last?
Some trials will only require a single visit, while others will continue until your disease returns. It's fairly common for a trial to last somewhere between 1 and 6 months.
Do you verify all the trials on your website?
All of the trials listed on Power have been formally registered with the US Food and Drug Administration. Beyond this, some trials on Power have been formally 'verified' if the team behind the trial has completed an additional level of verification with our team.
How quickly will I hear back from a clinical trial?
Sadly, this response time can take anywhere from 6 hours to 2 weeks. We're working hard to speed up how quickly you hear back — in general, verified trials respond to patients within a few days.
