Negative symptoms of schizophrenia, which respond minimally to antipsychotic medications, have previously been associated with reduced blood folate levels, especially among patients with low-functioning variants in genes that regulate folate metabolism. To determine whether folic acid plus B12 supplementation reduces negative symptoms of schizophrenia, and whether functional variants in folate-related genes influence treatment response. Parallel-group, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial of 16 weeks of treatment with 2 mg folic acid and 400 mcg B12. Three community mental health centers affiliated with academic medical centers in the United States. Outpatients with chronic schizophrenia taking stable doses of antipsychotic medications. 140 subjects were randomized to receive daily oral folic acid plus B12 or placebo. Change in negative symptoms (Scale for Assessment of Negative Symptoms, SANS), as well as positive and total symptoms (Positive and Negative Syndrome Scale). Folate plus B12 improved negative symptoms significantly compared to placebo (group difference: -0.33 change in SANS per week; 95% CI, -0.62 to -0.05) when genotype was taken into account, but not when genotype was excluded. An interaction of the 484C>T variant of FOLH1 (rs202676) with treatment was observed (p=.02), where only patients homozygous for the 484T allele demonstrated significantly greater benefit with active treatment (-0.59 change in SANS per week, 95% CI, -0.99 to -0.18). In parallel we observed an inverse relationship between red blood cell folate concentration at baseline and 484C allele load (p=.03), which persisted until 8 weeks of treatment. Change in positive and total symptoms did not differ between treatment groups. Folate plus B12 supplementation can improve negative symptoms of schizophrenia, but treatment response is influenced by genetic variation in folate absorption. These findings support a personalized medicine approach for the treatment of negative symptoms. ClinicalTrials.gov NCT00611806
