简要总结
This study evaluates the effect of ecopipam tablets in children and adolescents in the treatment of Tourette's Syndrome (TS). Half of the participants will receive ecopipam tablets, while the other half will receive matching placebo tablets
详细描述
Multicenter, placebo-controlled, double-blind, randomized, parallel-group, Phase 2b study in pediatric subjects (aged greater than equal to 6 to less than 18 years of age) with TS. Following a 28-day Screening period and Baseline visit, eligible subjects will be randomized 1:1 to receive either ecopipam hydrochloride (HCl) or matching placebo for a 12 week treatment period. Doses will be titrated up and down from target dose of 2 mg/kg/day. Follow Up visit will be conducted after the last dose of study medication.

结局指标
主要结局
Change From Baseline in the Yale Global Tic Severity Scale-Total Tic Score (YGTSS-TTS) at Week 12
时间窗: Baseline, Week 12
The YGTSS was a semi-structured clinical interview designed to measure the tic severity. This scale consisted of a tic inventory, with 5 separate rating scales to rate the severity of symptoms, and an impairment ranking. Ratings were made along 5 different dimensions on a scale of 0=none to 5=severe for motor and vocal tics, each including number, frequency, intensity, complexity, and interference. The YGTSS TTS was the summation of the severity scores of motor and vocal tics. The total tic score (TTS) ranged from 0 (none) to 50 (severe) with higher score represent more severe symptoms. A negative change from baseline indicates improvement.
次要结局
- Change From Baseline in Clinical Global Impression of Tourette Syndrome Severity (CGI-TS-S) at Week 12(Baseline, Week 12)
