Press Release

New Orleans Medicaid Fraud Psychiatrist Palazzo to Plead Guilty for

Paxil Clinical Trial Fraud

NEW ORLEANS - New Orleans psychiatrist Carmen Palazzo, previously

convicted for Medicaid fraud, will now enter a plea of guilty on counts

41-55 regarding clinical trial fraud for failure to prepare and maintain

records required under 21 U.S.C. § 355(I), and 21 C.F.R. § 312.62(.

These charges involve not keeping adequate and accurate case histories

on adolescents administered the GlaxoKline antidepressant Paxil

during her clinical drug study . The arraignment is set for Thursday,

August 19, 2010.

A jury previously convicted Palazzo of Counts 1-15 and 17-40 (April 16,

2008) of the same indictment for Medicaid fraud and she was sentenced to

87 months in prison followed by a three-year term of supervised release

along with forfeiture verdict of $655,260.97. The clinical trial fraud

sections 41-55 were not accepted at the time but were eventually

reinstated. The case has been tried by the Eastern Louisiana US

Attorney's Office.

This is the latest conviction of a clinical investigator. This May,

Massachusetts anesthesiologist Dr. Reuben was convicted of similar

charges of clinical reserach fraud. He received 6 months jail-time, and

6-months home confinement to be held concurrently with a 3-year

probation. He was ordered to repay $361,932 in restitution, forfeit

$50,000 and pay a $5,000 fine. The prosecutor on the Reuben case,

Massachusetts A/US Attorney M. Sternberg called for a longer jail

sentence in his Sentencing Memorandum while stating, " cientific

misconducts in research and publishing persists - particularly in

pharmacological and medical research... An incarcerative sentence would

have profound general deterrence impact on the medical community... "
