The Clinical Antipsychotic Trials of Intervention Effectiveness (CATIE) was a series of effectiveness trials. The results of these trials began publication in September 2005. Among other findings, these studies were interpreted to suggest that (1) second-generation antipsychotics might have fewer advantages over first-generation antipsychotics than had been generally thought; (2) among the agents assessed, olanzapine had the best efficacy outcome; and (3) after treatment failure with a second-generation antipsychotic, the most efficacious second-line medication is clozapine. To examine the actual impact on practice of these publications, we looked at change in physician prescribing behavior based on these 3 conclusions before and after publication of CATIE.
