a.Patient is 18 years of age or older.
b.Patient has a neurologic disorder other than TS that could obscure the evaluation of tics.

-Previous suicidal preparatory acts or behavior
g.Patient has a history of a previous actual, interrupted, or aborted suicide attempt.
h.Patient has a first-degree relative who has completed suicide.
i.Patient has clinically significant obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) on day 1 that, in the opinion of the investigator, is the primary cause of impairment.
j.Patient has received comprehensive behavioral intervention for tics for TS or cognitive behavioral therapy for OCD within 4 weeks of screening.
k.Patient has received any of the following concomitant medications for tics within the specified exclusionary windows of screening prior to
dosing for washout:
-Within 3 months: depot neuroleptics, botulinum toxin, or tetrabenazine
-Within 4 weeks: cannabidiol oil or valbenazine
-Within 21 days: reserpine
-Within 14 days: neuroleptics (oral), typical and atypical antipsychotics (see Appendix A, Table 7), metoclopramide, levodopa, and dopamine agonists
Note: Use of stimulant medications, including amphetamine, methylphenidate, and lisdexamfetamine, is allowed if primary use is for the treatment of ADHD, dosing has been stable for at least 2 weeks before screening.
Note: Use of atomoxetine is allowed if the primary use is for the treatment of ADHD, dosing has been stable for at least 4 weeks before
screening.
Note: Use of benzodiazepines is allowed if the primary use is not for tics, and dosing has been stable for at least 4 weeks before screening.
Note: Use of topiramate (up to 200 mg/day) is allowed if the dosing has been stable for at least 4 weeks before screening.
Note: Use of guanfacine or clonidine is allowed regardless of indication (ie, if prescribed for tics or Tourette syndrome) if the dosing has been stable for at least 4 weeks before screening and no changes to dose or frequency are anticipated during the course of the study.
l.Patient has an unstable or serious medical illness at screening or day 1.
m.Patient has a QT interval corrected for heart rate using Frederica’s formula (QTcF) interval value >450 msec (males) or >460 msec (females), or >480 msec (with right bundle branch block) on 12-lead ECG at screening. Patient requires treatment with drugs known to prolong the QT interval
n.Patients with a history of torsade de pointes, congenital long QT syndrome, bradyarrhythmias, or uncompensated heart failure.
o.Patient has evidence of hepatic impairment, as indicated by:
-Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) or alanine aminotransferase (ALT) >2.5 × the upper limit of the normal range (ULN) at screening
-Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) or total bilirubin (Tbil) >2 × ULN at screening
Note: Patients with Gilbert’s Syndrome are eligible to participate if approved by the medical monitor.
