Study Summary

The proposed pilot study will compare minocycline augmentation with clozapine in individuals with high vs low inflammation as measured by CRP. Investigators hypothesize that minocycline will be well tolerated and will result in an improvement in the symptoms of schizophrenia, cognition, as well as improve the quality of life for patients preferentially in patients with high CRPs. Investigators plan to use a variety of different scales to measure improvement in the varying symptoms of schizophrenia as well as cognitive function, which will be administered to patients at three week intervals for a total study time of twelve weeks. Investigators hypothesize that minocycline could prove to be an effective, well tolerated, and inexpensive medication for treatment resistant patients with schizophrenia whom have particular difficulties with social interactions, obtaining and maintaining employment, and overall quality of life. Furthermore, investigators hypothesize that the data obtained in this study will contribute to the ongoing exploration of the role of inflammation in the brain of patients with schizophrenia and help understand and target the role of various inflammatory markers in the pathophysiology and treatment of treatment resistant schizophrenia.

Primary Outcome

Positive symptoms (representing unusual thought content) of schizophrenia/schizoaffective disorder were measured with the positive subscale of the Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale (PANSS). The PANSS is scored by the clinician-researcher after an interview with the patient and it is the most commonly used measure for assessing the symptoms of schizophrenia. Seven items measure the positive symptoms of delusions, conceptual disorganization, hallucinatory behavior, excitement, grandiosity, susp
