Novel treatments and future directions
Keyword(s):
The advent of new-generation antipsychotic drugs has broadened the options for the pharmacological treatment of schizophrenia. However, there are still medical needs not met by current antipsychotic treatment, particularly for patients with negative symptoms and cognitive impairments, and for treatment-resistant schizophrenia. A growing body of research has identified new molecular mechanisms and novel pharmacological targets for treating schizophrenia beyond just dopamine D2 antagonism. This chapter provides a review of compounds in development and emerging non-pharmacological interventions for schizophrenia, and also considers approaches towards personalized and precision medicine for the disorder.
