(OPC-14597 Digital; aripiprazole tablet with sensor)
Protocol No. 316-13-217
Protocol Title:
A Multicenter, 180-day Pragmatic Clinical Trial to Measure 
the Difference in All-cause Hospitalizations for Patients who 
are Using Abilify MyCite versus Virtual Matched Controls in 
Adults with Schizophrenia, Bipolar 1 Disorder, and Major 
Depressive Disorder 
Clinical Development 
Phase:
4
Study Type:
Pragmatic Clinical Trial
Indication: 
Adults with schizophrenia (SCH), bipolar 1 disorder (BP1), 
and major depressive disorder (MDD)
Objective(s):
The primary objective of this study is to assess the difference 
in all-cause hospitalizations between patients using Abilify 
MyCite versus virtual matched controls at Day 180.
In addition, secondary and exploratory objectives will assess 
medication adherence, healthcare utilization and costs, and 
patient-reported outcomes.
Study Design/
Methodology:
Main Study
This is a phase 4, open-label, prospective, pragmatic clinical 
trial to assess the difference between all-cause hospitalizations
in patients using Abilify MyCite (for Months 1-3, then 
prohibited for Months 4-6) versus virtual matched controls 
from baseline to Day 180. Virtual matched controls 
 
 would be receiving treatment 
as usual (ie, any product other than Abilify MyCite, which 
may be oral aripiprazole or any other product).
Eligible patients will enter a screening period of up to 13 days.
For patients enrolling into the study, those not on aripiprazole 
at screening will use the screening period for conversion to 
aripiprazole from other antipsychotics according to the 
approved labels. At the baseline visit (which may be the same 
visit as the screening visit), Abilify MyCite onboarding will be 
provided in the office, with commercial informational 
materials and additional call center support; then, patients will 
initiate 3 months of treatment with Abilify MyCite at the 
baseline visit.

Version 1.0, 08 Mar 2018
During the following 3 months (Months 4-6), use of Abilify 
MyCite will be prohibited (and the patient continues with oral 
aripiprazole or other appropriate treatment, per routine clinical 
care). The primary endpoint will be assessed at Day 180.
After the visit at Day 180, a second, optional interventional 
period (up to 6 months of Abilify MyCite) may be initiated per 
the joint decision of the patients with their study physician;
patients in this second, optional interventional period will have 
a visit at Day 360 (in addition to their regular visits as 
clinically indicated). During this second, optional 
interventional period, patients may start and stop Abilify 
MyCite as clinically indicated.
Enrolled patients will be matched to a virtual control group 
identified from 
 in a 1:3 ratio 
(enrolled patients on Abilify MyCite treatment versus virtual 
matched controls).
 
the matching will be performed after the Abilify 
MyCite arm has been completed. 
Exploratory Study
In addition, there will be a parallel exploratory study, which 
will utilize a different set of physicians and patients from the 
main study. Results from the exploratory study will be 
analyzed separately from the main study results.
Procedures for the exploratory study will be similar to those in 
the main study (see above), with the exception that there will 
be 1-month intervals of Abilify MyCite use (and 1-month 
intervals of prohibition of Abilify MyCite use). During periods 
of nonuse of Abilify MyCite, the patient continues with oral 
aripiprazole treatment, per routine clinical care.
In the exploratory study, each patient will receive Abilify 
MyCite per 1 one of 2 sequences over a 360-day period:

Sequence 1: Only in Months 1, 2, 5, and 10.

Sequence 2: Only in Months 1, 4, 7, and 10.
Sites will be randomized to 1 of the 2 sequences.

Version 1.0, 08 Mar 2018
For this exploratory study, the site visits will be at screening, 
baseline (which may be the same day as the screening visit), 
Day 180, and Day 360; additional visits are to occur as 
clinically indicated. The exploratory arm will begin after the 
main study is enrolled at approximately 50% (ie, staggered 
start).
Patient Population:
In both the main and exploratory studies, participants will be 
adult patients with SCH, BP1, or MDD who, within 60 days 
prior to study enrollment, had a hospitalization (all-cause or 
psychiatric, ie, for any reason) or at least 1 psychiatric partial 
hospital admission. To achieve balanced enrollment of the 
targeted diagnoses, a minimum enrollment of each diagnosis 
will be 25% for each study.
The main study will enroll approximately 640 total patients.
The exploratory study will enroll approximately 150 adult 
patients (75 per sequence), utilizing different sites from the 
main study (ie, a different set of patients and physicians).

For the main study, the primary analysis will be a comparison 
of proportions between the Abilify MyCite cohort and virtual 
matched control group based on standard formulas.
Study Duration:
The main study, the expected maximum study duration per 
patient from screening to their last visit will be 373 days 
(ie, up to 13 days screening, plus an expected maximum of 
360 days in the study if the patient participates in the optional 
second interventional period).
For the exploratory study, the expected maximum study
duration per patient will be 373 days (ie, the same as the main 
study).
Since the main and exploratory studies will utilize different 
physicians and patients, the expected maximum study duration 
for any patient will be 373 days.

Introduction
Abilify MyCite® (aripiprazole tablets with sensor) is a drug-device combination product 
comprised of aripiprazole tablets embedded with an ingestible event marker (IEM) sensor 
intended to track drug ingestion that is indicated for1:

Treatment of adults with schizophrenia (SCH);

Treatment of bipolar 1 disorder (BP1): 

Acute treatment of adults with manic and mixed episodes as monotherapy and as 
adjunct to lithium or valproate;

Maintenance treatment of adults as monotherapy and as adjunct to lithium or 
valproate;

Adjunctive treatment of adults with major depressive disorder (MDD).
Abilify MyCite tracks drug ingestion and is composed of the following components1:

Aripiprazole embedded with an IEM sensor (Abilify MyCite);

MyCite® Patch (wearable sensor) that detects the signal from the IEM sensor after 
ingestion and transmits data to a smartphone;

MyCite App, a smartphone application (app), which is used with a compatible 
smartphone to display medication ingestion information for the patient;

Web-based portal or dashboard for HCPs and caregivers.
This trial will utilize commercially available Abilify MyCite.
The Abilify MyCite system has been tested in patients with serious mental illness, with 
clinical trials demonstrating an ability to report tablet ingestion with high accuracy and 
acceptable latency time, with positive results regarding usability reported by both patients 
and HCPs/caregivers.2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10
Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval of Abilify MyCite was also based, in 
part, on evidence from human factors engineering studies, which were conducted to 
ensure safe and effective use of the system.11
 
1.1
Rationale for Development of Abilify MyCite
The Abilify MyCite system is a drug-device combination product comprised of 
aripiprazole (an atypical antipsychotic) tablets embedded with a sensor that 
CCI

Protocol 316-13-217
Confidential - Proprietary Information
18
Version 1.0, 08 Mar 2018
communicates with a patch (wearable sensor) and a medical software application with 
collected information (ingestion, mood, activity, rest) tracked and summarized for 
patients, HCPs, and potentially caregivers. Abilify MyCite is intended to track drug 
ingestion and is indicated for the treatment of adults with SCH, BP1 (acute treatment of 
adults with manic and mixed episodes or maintenance treatment of adults), and 
adjunctive treatment of adults with MDD.1 Abilify MyCite can provide objective patient 
data with regard to medication-taking behaviors and activities that can enable clinicians 
to make more informed and optimal therapeutic decisions. Additionally, the Abilify 
MyCite system allows patients to engage in taking a more active role in their personal 
wellbeing. The Abilify MyCite system fulfills an unmet need regarding medication 
adherence monitoring in these patients.
Currently available methods for monitoring adherence have limitations; as such, an 
unmet need exists for a simple, accurate solution for adherence monitoring to enable 
HCPs to objectively measure whether a patient was adherent to treatment. Increasing 
HCP awareness of patient nonadherence and its role in suboptimal response may allow 
for better treatment decision making and allow an opportunity for more HCP/patient 
engagement in care. The available evidence suggests that patient engagement or 
activation in serious mental illness, while not a main focus in clinical practice, may 
provide substantial benefit to patient health outcomes, including management of 
comorbid conditions, and should be encouraged. 
The Abilify MyCite system may be used by HCPs who desire accurate, timely, and 
objective measures of medication adherence over a defined period of time to aid in their 
treatment decisions. It also allows HCPs to make treatment decisions based on objective 
medication ingestion data, rather than guessing whether suboptimal response is based on 
poor adherence or limited effectiveness. For patients, Abilify MyCite offers access to 
objective personal data on medication-taking behaviors and other measures such as self-
reported mood over time and activity and rest patterns. This healthcare information is 
then available to both the patient and HCP (and caregivers with patient consent), which 
may aid in increased health awareness and more informed shared decision making 
regarding treatment.
Although a large number of pharmacological treatments exist, the management of serious 
mental illness presents a significant personal and societal burden. For treatments to be 
effective, the patient must be adherent to their medication. Although many methods are 
used to measure adherence, studies have shown widespread nonadherence in psychiatric 
populations. Cramer and Rosenheck found average adherence rates of 58% and 65% for 

Protocol 316-13-217
Confidential - Proprietary Information
19
Version 1.0, 08 Mar 2018
antipsychotics and antidepressants, respectively, compared with an adherence rate of 76% 
for nonpsychiatric medications.12 This finding is problematic due to the relationship 
between nonadherence and disease burden. Consequently, nonadherence to psychiatric 
medications remains a major barrier to achieving optimal health outcomes in this 
population, and ensuring medication compliance is an unmet medical need.12,13

with manic and mixed episodes as monotherapy and as adjunct to lithium or 
valproate, or as maintenance treatment of adults as monotherapy and as adjunct to 
lithium or valproate); and adjunctive treatment of adults with MDD.
Limitations of 
use

The ability of Abilify MyCite to improve patient compliance or modify aripiprazole 
dosage has not been established.

The use of Abilify MyCite to track drug ingestion in “real-time” or during an 
emergency is not recommended because detection may be delayed or not occur.
Also see Appendix 3 (Abilify MyCite Contents).
The Abilify MyCite system includes an ingestible sensor to confirm ingestion of Abilify 
MyCite when the sensor is activated in the stomach. The sensor activation signal and the 
information about medication ingestion and other physiological metrics are gathered by a 
compatible wearable sensor that relays that information to a mobile app for the patient 
and to web-based software that can display information for an HCP or caregiver. The 
Abilify MyCite system is composed of the following components (Figure 1.2-1 and
Table 1.2-1.)1,2: 

Aripiprazole tablet embedded with an IEM sensor (Abilify MyCite). The IEM is a 
1-mm sized ingestible device embedded in the Abilify MyCite tablet. Upon contact 
with gastric fluid, magnesium and cuprous chloride within the IEM react to activate 
and power the device. The IEM then communicates to the MyCite Patch (wearable 
sensor) to track aripiprazole ingestion.

MyCite Patch (wearable sensor) that is designed to detect the ingestion of the Abilify 
MyCite tablet, record the ingestion of the IEM, and transmit ingestion data to the 
mobile patient application. These data include the date and time of ingestion and the 
unique identification number of the ingestible device. The patch also records 
physiological metrics (activity level via step count and body position) and transmits 
these data to a compatible mobile device.

MyCite App (a smartphone app which is used with a compatible smartphone to 
display information for the patient) to allow patients to review their medication 
ingestion as well as enter their behavioral data (patient rated mood and quality of 

Protocol 316-13-217

rest). These data can be shared with healthcare providers (HCPs) and caregivers with 
the patient’s consent.

Web-based portal for HCPs and caregivers provides an interface to review data 
shared by a patient.

Study Rationale and Objectives
2.1
Study Rationale
Poor adherence to medication is a major barrier to the treatment of psychiatric disorders. 
Mobile health and digital medicine technologies have become available to patients and 
consumers that may improve health management and medication compliance.14
Therefore, Otsuka Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd (Otsuka) has developed Abilify MyCite to 
track drug ingestion. Each aripiprazole tablet is embedded with an IEM. When 
swallowed, and after reaching the stomach, the IEM transmits a signal that is detected 
and recorded by a patch worn on the patient’s torso. The patch transmits data to the 
patient’s mobile device (ie, smartphone), which uploads data to a secure, cloud-based 
server. Use of Abilify MyCite will allow patients to view their aripiprazole ingestion data 
on their mobile device; in this way, the patient can learn about their medication-ingestion 
patterns, which could enable greater patient awareness and self-management of their 
disease.
In addition, the patients’ HCPs and elected caregivers can view data via a web-based 
portal served by the cloud-based server.1 With Abilify MyCite tracking drug ingestion, 
all-cause hospitalizations (ie, hospitalizations for any reason) should be reduced when 
compared to virtual matched controls; this reduction is anticipated to be driven by an 
improvement in timely and appropriate treatment decisions based on objective data. 
The main and exploratory studies will explore different use-patterns of Abilify MyCite to 
determine the durability of the system effect over time.
2.2
Study Objectives
The primary objective of this study is to assess the difference in all-cause hospitalizations 
between patients using Abilify MyCite versus virtual matched controls at Day 180. 
In addition, secondary and exploratory objectives will assess medication adherence,

3.1.1
Main Study
The study design schematic for the main study in provided in Figure 3.1-2.
This is a phase 4, open-label, prospective, pragmatic clinical trial to assess the difference 
between all-cause hospitalizations in patients using Abilify MyCite (for Months 1-3, then 
prohibited for Months 4-6) versus virtual matched controls from baseline to Day 180. 
Virtual matched controls 
 would be receiving 
treatment as usual (ie, any product other than Abilify MyCite, which may be oral 
aripiprazole or any other product).
Eligible patients will enter a screening period of up to 13 days. For patients enrolling into 
the study, those not on aripiprazole at screening will use the screening period for 
conversion to aripiprazole from other antipsychotics according to the approved labels. At 
the baseline visit (which may be the same visit as the screening visit), Abilify MyCite 
onboarding will be provided in the office, with commercial informational materials and 
additional call center support; then, patients will initiate 3 months of treatment with 
Abilify MyCite at the baseline visit.
During the following 3 months (Months 4 through 6), use of Abilify MyCite will be 
prohibited (and the patient continues with oral aripiprazole or other appropriate treatment, 
per routine clinical care). The primary endpoint will be assessed at Day 180. The final 
study visit will be on Day 180 for patients not continuing in the second, optional 
interventional period.
After the visit at Day 180, a second, optional interventional period (up to 6 months of 
Abilify MyCite) may be initiated per the joint decision of the patients with their study 
physician; patients in this second, optional interventional period will have a visit at 
Day 360 (in addition to their regular visits as clinically indicated). During this second, 
optional interventional period, patients may start and stop Abilify MyCite as clinically 
indicated.
Enrolled patients will be matched to a virtual control group identified from 
 
 in a 1:3 ratio (enrolled patients on Abilify MyCite treatment versus 
virtual matched controls).
 
the matching will be performed after the 
Abilify MyCite arm has been completed.

3.1.2
Exploratory Study
The study design schematic for the parallel exploratory study in provided in Figure 3.1-3. 
The parallel exploratory study will utilize a different set of physicians and patients from 
the main study. Results from the exploratory study will be analyzed separately from the 
main study results.
Procedures for the exploratory study will be similar to those in the main study 
(see Section 3.1.1), with the exception that there will be 1-month intervals of Abilify 
MyCite use (and 1-month intervals of prohibition of Abilify MyCite use), as diagrammed 
in the study schematic (Figure 3.1-3). During periods of nonuse of Abilify MyCite, the 
patient continues with oral aripiprazole, per routine clinical care.
In the exploratory study, each patient will receive Abilify MyCite per 1 one of 
2 sequences over a 360-day period:

Sequence 1: Only in Months 1, 2, 5, and 10.

Sequence 2: Only in Months 1, 4, 7, and 10.
Sites will be randomized to 1 of the 2 sequences.
For this exploratory study, the site visits will be at screening, baseline (which may be the 
same day as the screening visit), Day 180, and Day 360; additional visits are to occur as
clinically indicated. The exploratory arm will begin after the main study is enrolled at 
approximately 50% (ie, staggered start).
3.2
Study Population
Enrollment is described in Section 3.2.1 (main study) and Section 3.2.2 (exploratory 
study).
For information on the virtual matched control group, see Section 3.5.4.
3.2.1
Main Study
The main study will enroll approximately 640 adult patients with SCH, BP1, or MDD 
who, within 60 days prior to study enrollment, had a hospitalization (all-cause or 
psychiatric, ie, for any reason) or at least 1 psychiatric partial hospital admission. To 
achieve balanced enrollment of the targeted diagnoses, a minimum enrollment of each 
diagnosis will be 25% or approximately 160 total patients.

3.5.1.2
Main Study: Enrollment Procedures
The study physician will make the decision regarding the patient’s suitability for the 
study. The determination that a patient is appropriate for treatment with aripiprazole 
(regardless of whether or not they would switch from current treatment) and initiation of 
Abilify MyCite will be made prior to and independent of study initiation. Following the 
treating physician’s determination of eligibility, patients will be approached for 
enrollment. As part of their routine office visits, patients will be approached for potential 
enrollment into the study by their treating physician.
3.5.1.3
Main Study: Screening
Eligibility assessment per the treating physician’s decision and informed consent will be 
conducted during a screening visit up to 13 days prior to and including the baseline visit.
For patients enrolling into the study, those not on aripiprazole at screening will use the 
screening period for conversion to aripiprazole from other antipsychotics according to the 
approved labels.
3.5.1.4
Main Study: Baseline
The baseline visit marks the beginning of the interventional phase. Patients will receive 
training and onboarding with Abilify MyCite as outlined in Table 3.5.1-1. Training will 
be based on the commercial training materials for Abilify MyCite to reflect real-world 
practice. Baseline assessments will include: demographic data, medical and psychiatric 
history, height, weight, vital signs, and hospitalization history (all-cause and psychiatric). 
3.5.1.5
Main Study: Treatments
Patients will initiate Abilify MyCite upon study enrollment (at the baseline visit) and will 
continue use through Day 90 (with an optional second use period over Days 180-≤360),

as deemed clinically appropriate by their treating physician. Abilify MyCite may be 
started and stopped as clinically appropriate based on physician judgment. Ability 
MyCite metrics will be captured throughout use.
During periods of nonuse of Abilify MyCite, the patient continues with oral aripiprazole 
or other appropriate treatment, per routine clinical care.
3.5.1.6
Main Study: Interventional Phase (Day 1 to Day 180)
After the baseline visit, there are no mandated visits until Day 180. However, it is 
anticipated that patients will undergo medical evaluation at regular intervals. Data 
collected at these routine care visits, such as Abilify MyCite use changes and AEs (as 
described in Section 4), will be entered into the study database. Physicians are expected
to regularly review the Abilify MyCite dashboard data during active Abilify MyCite use 
as consistent with routine care, approximately every 2 weeks.
At the time points indicated in Table 3.5.1-1, the patient, caregiver (if applicable), and 
physician outcomes scales will be completed.
3.5.1.7
Main Study: Day 180 Mid-study (or End-of-study) Visit
The Day 180 visit marks the end of the interventional phase. All patients will complete 
the Day 180 visit. Data collected at the Day 180 visit, such as Abilify MyCite use 
changes and certain AEs (as described in Section 4), will be entered into the study 
database. 
At the Day 180 visit, a second, optional interventional period (up to 6 months of Abilify 
MyCite; Days 180-≤360) may be initiated per the joint decision of the patients with their 
study physician; if the patient is not continuing into the optional period, then the Day 180 
visit is the final visit. During this second, optional interventional period, patients may 
start and stop Abilify MyCite as clinically indicated.
If a patient withdraws or is withdrawn from the study prematurely (eg, before completing 
the scheduled Day 180 visit), then an early ET visit should be performed, at which time 
all assessments and procedures that were to have been performed at the Day 180 visit 
should be completed. In such cases, the reason for the ET must be recorded.

Protocol Deviations
As this is a real-world study, the chances of protocol deviations occurring in this study 
are minimal and limited to data breaches, deviations to Good Clinical Practice, or 
treatment outside of the parameters of the Abilify MyCite US package insert.
In the event of a significant deviation from the protocol due to an emergency, accident, or 
mistake (eg, violation of informed consent process or patient enrolled in violation of 
eligibility criteria), the study physician will notify HealthCore, who will contact the 
sponsor at the earliest possible time by telephone. The study physician and sponsor will 
come as quickly as possible to a joint decision regarding the patient’s continuation in the 
study. This decision will be documented by the study physician and the sponsor.

Reporting of Adverse Events
In this phase 4 study, all SAEs (ie, drug-related SAEs and device-related SAEs), 
device-related nonserious AEs (ie, related to the device component of Abilify MyCite 
treatment, including those leading to withdrawal from Abilify MyCite), potential 
hepatotoxicity cases, and pregnancies will be monitored and collected. For device-related 
AEs leading to withdrawal from Abilify MyCite, the reason for withdrawal will be 
collected.

4.1
Definitions
4.1.1
Drug-related Serious Adverse Events
A serious adverse event (SAE) includes any event that results in any of the following 
outcomes:

Death

Life-threatening; eg, the patient was, in the opinion of the HCP, at immediate risk of 
death from the event as it occurred. It does not include an event that, had it occurred 
in a more severe form, might have caused death.

Persistent or significant incapacity/disability or substantial disruption of the ability to 
conduct normal life functions.

Requires inpatient hospitalization or prolongs hospitalization.

Hospitalization itself should not be reported as an SAE; whenever possible the 
reason for the hospitalization should be reported.

Hospitalizations or prolonged hospitalizations for social admissions (eg, those 
required for reasons of convenience or other non-medical need) are not 
considered SAEs.

Congenital anomaly/birth defect.

Other medically significant events that, based upon appropriate medical judgment, 
may jeopardize the patient and may require medical or surgical intervention to 
prevent one of the outcomes listed above; eg, allergic bronchospasm requiring 
intensive treatment in an emergency room or home, blood dyscrasias or convulsions 
that do not result in hospitalization, or the development of drug dependency or drug 
abuse.
4.1.2
Device-related Serious Adverse Events
A device-related SAE is defined as:

An event that reasonably suggests that a device has or may have caused or 
contributed to a death or serious injury. 

Contributed to is defined as a death or serious injury that was or may have been 
attributed to a medical device, or that a medical device was or may have been a 
factor in a death or serious injury, including events occurring as a result of any of 
the following: 

Failure;

Malfunction;

Improper or inadequate design;

Manufacture;

Labeling;

Protocol 316-13-217

Version 1.0, 08 Mar 2018

User error.

Serious injury means an injury or illness that includes any of the following:

Is life-threatening.

Results in permanent impairment of a body function or permanent damage to 
a body structure.

Necessitates medical or surgical intervention to preclude permanent 
impairment of a body function or permanent damage to a body structure. 
Permanent means irreversible impairment or damage to a body structure or 
function, excluding trivial impairment or damage.

Any of the following events that manufacturers or importers become aware of that 
reasonably suggests that one of their marketed devices:

May have caused or contributed to a death or serious injury.

Has malfunctioned and that the device or a similar device marketed by the 
manufacturer or importer would be likely to cause or contribute to a death or 
serious injury if the malfunction were to recur.
For the purpose of this study, device-related SAEs include any event that is related to the 
IEM, patch, or the phone and application (reported to Otsuka).
4.1.3
Nonserious Adverse Events 
Nonserious AEs are all AEs that do not meet the criteria for a "serious" AE (Section 4.1.1
and Section 4.1.2). As described above, only nonserious AEs that are related to the device 
(ie, related to the device component of Abilify MyCite, including those leading to 
withdrawal from Abilify MyCite) will be collected in this study.
4.1.4
Immediately Reportable Event
Immediately reportable events (IREs) include the events discussed in Section 4.1.1, 
Section 4.1.2, and any of the following outcomes:

Any SAEs;

Any AEs related to occupational exposure;

Any device-related nonserious AEs, including skin irritation that is Grade 2 or worse 
(see Appendix 9), ie, definite erythema that is readily visible; minimal (or worse) 
edema or minimal (or worse) papular response;

Potential drug-induced liver injury (DILI) case (see Section 4.4);

Pregnancies are also defined as IREs. Although normal pregnancy is not an AE, it 
will mandate Abilify MyCite discontinuation and must be reported on an IRE form to 
the sponsor. Pregnancy will only be documented as an AE in the data collection tool,
if there is an abnormality or complication;

Protocol 316-13-217
Confidential - Proprietary Information
47
Version 1.0, 08 Mar 2018
If a patch-related nonserious AE occurs, the skin irritation scale should be completed; 
Grade 2 or above on the scale are considered medically significant for purposes of 
reporting.  
4.1.5
Abnormal Clinical Laboratory Test Changes
Clinical laboratory assessments will be conducted at the HCPs’ discretion to ensure 
safety of the patient. Ongoing clinical laboratory assessments are not required for this 
study. 
In the event that the HCP orders a laboratory test in the interest of patient safety, it is the 
HCP’s responsibility to review the results of all laboratory tests as they become available. 
Abnormal laboratory tests that a physician deems related to the product would be 
considered a SAE and/or IRE if they fit the criteria set forth in Section 4.1.1, 
Section 4.1.2, and Section 4.1.4.
4.1.6
Severity
Adverse events will be graded on a 3-point scale and reported as indicated in the data 
collection tool. The intensity of an adverse experience is defined as follows:
1 = Mild:
Discomfort noticed, but no disruption to daily activity.
2 = Moderate:
Discomfort sufficient to reduce or affect normal daily activity.
3 = Severe:
Inability to work or perform normal daily activity.
4.1.7
Abilify MyCite Causality
Assessment of causal relationship of an SAE or device-related nonserious AE to the use 
of Abilify MyCite is defined as follows:
Related: 
There is a reasonable possibility of a temporal and causal 
relationship between Abilify MyCite and the SAE or 
device-related nonserious AE.
Not Related:
There is no temporal or causal relationship between Abilify 
MyCite and the SAE or device-related nonserious AE.

48
Version 1.0, 08 Mar 2018
4.2
Eliciting and Reporting Serious Adverse Events
The HCP will assess patients for the occurrence of SAEs. To avoid bias in eliciting 
SAEs, patients should be asked the non-leading question: “How have you felt since your 
last visit?” All SAEs reported by the patient must be recorded on the source documents 
and data collection tool provided by the sponsor. Serious AE collection is to begin after a 
patient has signed the ICF. All SAEs will be collected starting from the signing of the 
ICF until the end of the study.
Use medical terminology in SAE reporting. Serious adverse events should be reported as 
a single unifying diagnosis whenever possible or, in the absence of a unifying diagnosis, 
as individual signs or symptoms. Exacerbation or disease progression should be reported 
as an SAE only if there are unusual or severe clinical features that were not present, or 
experienced earlier, or not expected based on the course of the condition. An SAE that 
undergoes a change in severity, seriousness, or toxicity should be reported as a new SAE.
In addition, Clinical Safety and Pharmacovigilance must be notified immediately by 
telephone, fax, or e-mail of any IREs according to the procedure outlined below, in 
Section 4.3. Special attention should be paid to recording hospitalization and concomitant 
medications.
4.3
Immediately Reportable Events 
The HCP must immediately report after becoming aware of any SAE, potential DILI, 
confirmed pregnancy, or any device-related nonserious AEs (which include skin irritation 
that is Grade 2 or worse per Appendix 9, ie, definite erythema that is readily visible; 
minimal [or worse] edema or minimal [or worse] papular response) by telephone, fax, or 
e-mail to Clinical Safety and Pharmacovigilance using the contact information on the 
cover page of this protocol (see also Appendix 2). An IRE form must be completed and 
sent by e-mail, fax, or overnight courier to Clinical Safety and Pharmacovigilance. 
Patients experiencing SAEs should be followed clinically until their health has returned 
to baseline status, or until all parameters have returned to normal or have otherwise been 
explained. It is expected that the HCP will provide or arrange appropriate supportive care 
for the patient and will provide prompt updates on the patient’s status to Clinical Safety 
and Pharmacovigilance.
4.4
Potential Drug-induced Liver Injury
For a patient who receives laboratory tests, if the test indicates an elevation in aspartate 
aminotransferase or alanine aminotransferase that is 3 times the upper limit of normal 

Protocol 316-13-217

Version 1.0, 08 Mar 2018
(ULN), a total bilirubin level should also be evaluated. If the total bilirubin is 2 times 
the ULN, an IRE form for be completed, with all values listed.
4.5
Pregnancy
Females of childbearing potential (FOCBP) are defined as female patients or female 
partners of the male patients for whom menstruation has started and who are not 
documented as sterile (eg, have had a bilateral oophorectomy and/or hysterectomy or 
who have been postmenopausal for at least 12 months).
Before study enrollment, FOCBP must be advised of the importance of avoiding 
pregnancy during study participation and the potential risk factors for an unintentional 
pregnancy. The patient must sign an ICF stating that the risks and consequences were 
discussed with her.
During the study, all FOCBP should be instructed to contact the HCP immediately if they 
suspect they might be pregnant (eg, missed or late menstrual cycle).
If a female patient is suspected to be pregnant before the patient receives Abilify MyCite, 
the investigator can recommend the patient undergo a pregnancy test with their general 
practitioner or primary care physician. If the pregnancy is confirmed, the patient must not 
receive Abilify MyCite and must not be enrolled in the study. If pregnancy is suspected 
while the patient is taking Abilify MyCite, Abilify MyCite may be continued at HCP 
discretion until the result of the pregnancy test is known. If pregnancy is confirmed, 
Abilify MyCite may be continued at HCP discretion based on treatment guidelines for the 
medication administered. If the HCP discontinues the patient from Abilify MyCite, it 
must be performed in an appropriate manner (eg, dose tapering if necessary for patient
safety) and the patient will be withdrawn from the study. (Exceptions to study
discontinuation may be considered for life-threatening conditions only after consultations 
with the Clinical Safety and Pharmacovigilance department [see the cover page of this 
protocol for contact information]).
The HCP must immediately notify the sponsor of any pregnancy associated with Abilify 
MyCite exposure during the study and for 30 days for a female patient, 90 days for 
female partner of a male patient, after the last dose of Abilify MyCite, and record the 
event on the IRE form and forward it to the sponsor. Pregnancies of patients or their 
partners will be followed to term. In the event of pregnancy of a patient’s partner, consent 
to follow the pregnancy will be obtained. The sponsor will forward Pregnancy 
Surveillance Form(s) for monitoring the outcome of the pregnancy.

Protocol 316-13-217
Confidential - Proprietary Information
50
Version 1.0, 08 Mar 2018
Protocol-required procedures for study discontinuation and follow-up must be performed 
on the patient unless contraindicated by pregnancy (eg, x-ray studies). Other appropriate 
pregnancy follow-up procedures should be considered, if indicated. In addition, the HCP 
must report to the sponsor, on appropriate Pregnancy Surveillance Form(s), follow-up 
information regarding the course of the pregnancy, including perinatal and neonatal 
outcome. Infants will be followed for a minimum of 6 months from the date of birth. 
4.6
Follow-up of Serious Adverse Events
Serious AEs that are identified or ongoing at the last scheduled contact must be 
recorded in the data collection tool and reported to the Clinical Safety and 
Pharmacovigilance department according to the reporting procedures outlined in 
Section 4.3. This may include unresolved previously reported SAEs, or new SAEs. 
The HCP will follow SAEs until the events are resolved, stabilized, or the patient is lost 
to follow-up. Resolution means that the patient has returned to the baseline state of health 
and stabilized means that the HCP does not expect any further improvement or worsening 
of the patient’s condition. The HCP will continue to report any significant follow-up 
information to Clinical Safety and Pharmacovigilance up to the point the event has been 
resolved.
4.6.1
Follow-up and Reporting of Serious Adverse Events Occurring 
after Last Scheduled Contact
Any new SAEs reported by the patient to the HCP that occur after the last scheduled 
contact, and are determined by the HCP to be reasonably associated with the use of 
Abilify MyCite, should be reported to Otsuka Pharmaceutical Development and 
Commercialization, Inc (OPDC). 
This may include SAEs that are captured on follow-up telephone contact or at any other 
time point after the defined study period (eg, up to last scheduled contact). The HCP 
should follow SAEs identified after the last scheduled contact until the events are 
resolved, stabilized, or the patient is lost to follow-up. The HCP should continue to report 
any significant follow-up information to OPDC up to the point the event has been 
resolved or stabilized.

 In order to maintain patient confidentiality, 
each patient will be assigned a unique study-specific patient ID upon study enrollment to 
use in place of the patient name or any other identifying information (eg, medical record 
number). Data collected from Abilify MyCite will be transferred to HealthCore and 
integrated with prospectively collected study data, 
 will be 
leveraged for analysis.
For data through the electronic case report forms (eCRFs), the study physician has the 
ultimate responsibility for the collection and reporting of all clinical and patient data and 
ensuring that the data are accurate and complete.
5.2
Electronic Case Report Forms and Electronic Data Collection
All clinical study data will be collected at the physician office or over the phone and 
entered into eCRF by trained site study personnel through a fully validated, 21 Code of 
Federal Regulations 11 and Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act 
(HIPAA)-compliant EDC system. 
All study personnel involved in data entry will be trained on patient confidentiality and 
the EDC system prior to beginning data entry. Site users will be provided eCRF 
Completion Guidelines to assist with study data collection and entry. Study personnel 
will access the EDC system through a secure study website.

Statistical Methods and Planned Analyses
Complete details of the planned statistical analysis will be presented in the statistical 
analysis plan (SAP).
7.1
Sample Size
The primary endpoint for the study is the proportion of patients with at least 1 all-cause 
hospitalization from study start date to Day 180. The assumptions for the sample size 
calculation were based on input from 
 for patients diagnosed 
with SCH, BP1, or MDD who had at least 1 all-cause hospitalization or partial 
psychiatric hospitalization within the 60 days prior to enrollment. A control group event 
rate of 36.3% was estimated, weighted based on an expected study distribution of 25% 
patients with SCH, 25% with BP1, and 50% with MDD. Sample size calculations were 
based on testing 2 proportions using the Z-test with unpooled variance. The study sample 
size of 447 patients was calculated based on the following assumptions, informed from 
 20% reduction in the proportion of patients with all-cause hospitalizations in 
the Abilify MyCite group versus the virtual matched control group (29.04% Abilify 
MyCite versus 36.30% virtual matched control), 1:3 (Abilify MyCite : virtual matched 
controls) matching, 80% power, and maintaining an overall alpha level of 0.05 with the 
level of significance in a superiority hypothesis of 0.025. Sample size calculations will be 
documented in the SAP. Using a 30% dropout rate at 6 months, a sample size of 
640 patients will need to be enrolled to ensure completion of 447 patients. 
A virtual control group of approximately 1350 patients will be identified from the 
 
and matched to the final sample of Abilify MyCite patients. This will create 3 controls for 
every 1 Abilify MyCite patient, which reduces the required Abilify MyCite sample size 
as compared to a 1:1 match while maintaining statistical power. Controls will be matched 
to Abilify MyCite patients using a propensity score derived from 
 
 This process has been shown to minimize bias associated with sample selection. 
Further details on the matching process will be included in the SAP.
7.2
Analysis of Demographic and Baseline Characteristics
Demographic and baseline characteristics will be summarized for the study population 
overall and by treatment (Abilify MyCite versus virtual matched controls). Discrete

variables will be reported as count (frequency) and percent for each category. Continuous 
level variables (interval, ratio) will be reported as mean and standard deviation. Where 
applicable, range, minimum, maximum, and median will also be reported. Other 
statistics, measures of central tendency, and measures of dispersion may also be reported 
as outlined in the SAP.
It is likely that the virtual matched controls will lack some variables that are available to 
the Abilify MyCite sample. As a result, a comprehensive list of each variable in the 
Abilify MyCite sample will be listed, while "N/A" will be listed for each variable that is 
not available in the virtual matched control cohort. Balance in baseline characteristics 
across the 2 cohorts will be evaluated prior to analysis.
The details of this analysis will be fully described in the SAP.
7.3
Effectiveness Analyses
Effectiveness analysis for this study refers to the difference in the study endpoints within 
the Abilify MyCite cohort and the virtual matched controls. This analysis is further 
outlined in the primary endpoint and secondary endpoints sections (Section 7.3.1 and 
Section 7.3.2). A summary table will be presented reporting the difference between 
cohorts at Day 180. Potential adjustment for baseline values or differences that exist in 
the samples will be further outlined in the SAP.
7.3.1
Primary Endpoint
The primary endpoint compares the proportion of patients with all-cause hospitalizations 
between the Abilify MyCite and virtual matched control cohorts. The primary endpoint 
analysis will be a test of independent proportions. Standard methods for these analysis 
methods were developed by Fleiss and others15 and included in all statistical software 
systems. 
These tests are directional in nature since the alternative hypothesis is that the proportions 
in the Abilify MyCite cohort will be lower than the proportions in the virtual controls. 
Adjustments will be made to the alpha level to account for the one-tail nature of the 
alternative hypothesis (HA).

Secondary Endpoint
The secondary endpoint compares the difference between groups (Abilify MyCite versus 
virtual matched controls) in the proportion of patients with at least 80% PDC (with
antipsychotic medication) from baseline to Day 180. 
This analysis will be a test of independent proportions between the Abilify MyCite and 
virtual matched control groups. 
7.3.3
Exploratory Endpoints
Details for the analysis of all exploratory endpoints (see Section 3.4.3 and Section 3.4.4) 
will be outlined in the SAP. It is understood that the list of variables might not be 
inclusive at this point and that alterations to these variables may be performed.
7.4
Safety Analyses
All safety summaries will be descriptive in nature. A detailed description of the 
summaries for the safety exploratory endpoint (see Section 3.4.3 [main study] and 
Section 3.4.4 [exploratory study]) will be described in the SAP.
7.5
Other Analyses
There are no plans to include any other analysis other than what has been described 
above. Any post-hoc testing that might arise from the results or findings will be discussed 
and conducted in accordance with standard and accepted statistical procedures.
7.6
Source Documents
Source documents are defined as the results of original observations and activities of a 
clinical investigation. Source documents may include, but are not limited to progress 
notes, electronic data, and recorded data from automated instruments. In this pragmatic 
trial, source documents will reside in the patient’s medical record. All source documents 
pertaining to this study will be maintained by the study physicians and made available for 
direct inspection by authorized persons. Study physicians will permit study-related 
monitoring, audits, IRB/IEC review, and regulatory inspection(s) by providing direct 
access to source data/documents by authorized persons as defined in the ICF.

Amendment Policy
The study physician will not make any changes to this protocol without the sponsor’s 
prior written consent and subsequent approval by the IRB/IEC. Any permanent change to 
the protocol, whether it be an overall change or a change for specific study site(s), must 
be handled as a protocol amendment written by the sponsor or its designee. In the case of 
a protocol amendment, the study physician must sign the revised protocol and the 
amendment will be submitted to the IRB/IEC and approval prior to implementation of 
any changes specified in the protocol amendment.
When the IRB/IEC, study physicians, and/or the sponsor conclude that the protocol 
amendment substantially alters the study design and/or increases the potential risk to the 
patient, the ICF must be revised and submitted to the IRB/IEC for review and approval 
prior to implementation. The revised ICF must then be used to obtain consent from new 
patients entering the study as well as from currently enrolled patients if they are affected 
by the amendment, per IRB/IEC guidance.

Description
Aripiprazole + IEM
Aripiprazole tablet with sensor will be dispensed to the patients during 
the trial. Tablets will be taken as prescribed by the healthcare provider, 
with approximately 120 mL of water.
Patch
Patches will be dispensed to a patient for use. Each patch is designed 
for 7-day wear; extra devices are provided should the patients desire to 
change the patch more frequently during the period of familiarization 
or in case of sensor malfunction.
Computing Device & 
Accessories
Patients will use their own smartphone and required accessories. 
Patients will be requested to carry their smartphone with them as much 
as possible and to plug in the device at a dedicated location at home 
where they could have easy and frequent access when not being 
carried. The preferred location is on a nightstand or a location 
immediately adjacent to where the patient sleeps.
Abilify MyCite 
Reference Guide
A printed reference guide will provide explicit directions for normal 
use and troubleshooting.
