Study hypothesis
|
The trial is designed to answer questions both about outcome and about mechanisms of treatment change of Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT) and Family Intervention (FI) for psychosis. The trial consists of two pathways (for those with carers and those without) incorporating randomisation within each pathway, after stratification by treatment centre and whether the participant is an inpatient at the time of recruitment.
Trial I has two conditions: CBT and Treatment As Usual (TAU).
Trial II has three conditions: CBT, FI and TAU.
Primary Outcome hypotheses:
1. In Trial Pathway I, CBT will reduce rates of relapse and total days in hospital in the two year follow up compared to TAU, and that CBT will be cost neutral.
2. In Trial Pathway II, Both CBT and FI will reduce relapse and days in hospital at two year follow up compared with TAU, and that CBT and FI will be cost neutral.
Secondary outcome hypotheses:
1. CBT and FI will both reduce relapse and psychotic and emotional symptoms at 12 months (end of treatment) compared with TAU. The main change in psychotic symptoms will be in delusions and hallucinations.
2. FI, but not CBT, will increase social functioning compared to TAU at 24 months.
3. CBT, but not FI, will reduce psychotic and emotional symptoms at 24 months compared with TAU.
