    Cannabis and Schizophrenia: Effects of clozapine
    The major goal of this study is to determine whether patients with chronic schizophrenia will decrease cannabis and other substance use when treated with clozapine instead of risperidone. The secondary aim is to begin to investigate the process by which clozapine produces its effects. A subsidiary aim assesses whether clozapine will improve the overall outcome of these patients.

    NIMH
    Clozapine, Cannabis and First Episode Schizophrenia
    The study will test whether patients with first episode schizophrenia and cannabis use disorder will be more likely to remain abstinent and to have a better outcome if treated with clozapine compared to risperidone.

    Cannabis and Schizophrenia: fMRI Reward Circuit Biomarker
    This study seeks to determine whether a monetary probe of brain reward circuitry linked to fMRI can serve as a “biomarker” of the vulnerability of cannabis use disorder in patients with schizophrenia and a “biomarker” of response to clozapine in these patients.

    Risperdal Consta in the Treatment of Comorbid Alcohol Use Disorder and Schizophrenia
    This study, undertaken at 4 national sites and led by the PI, seeks to assess the use of alcohol and other substances over the course of 6 months in patients taking Long-Acting Risperidone (Risperdal Consta) as compared to those treated with oral risperidone.
