Study on the Long-Term Safety of Ecopipam Hydrochloride Tablets for Children, Adolescents, and Adults with Tourette’s Disorder

3 1 1

What is this study about?

This clinical trial is focused on studying the long-term safety of a medication called ecopipam in individuals with Tourette’s Disorder. Tourette’s Disorder is a condition characterized by repetitive movements or unwanted sounds, known as tics, that are difficult to control. The study involves children, adolescents, and adults who have previously participated in related studies and are eligible to continue. The medication being tested, ecopipam, is taken in the form of tablets and is designed to help manage the symptoms of Tourette’s Disorder.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate how safe and tolerable ecopipam is when used over a long period. Participants will take ecopipam tablets orally, which means they will swallow the tablets. The study will monitor participants for any side effects or issues that may arise from taking the medication over time. The study does not involve any comparison with a placebo, and all participants will receive the actual medication.

Participants in this study will be observed for a period of up to 105 days. During this time, they will take ecopipam tablets at varying doses, depending on their specific needs and previous study participation. The study aims to ensure that ecopipam is safe for long-term use in managing the symptoms of Tourette’s Disorder, providing valuable information for future treatment options.

Trial locations

Investigated Drugs:

Ecopipam Hydrochloride

Ecopipam is a medication being studied for its long-term safety in people with Tourette’s Disorder. Tourette’s Disorder is a condition that causes people to have involuntary movements and sounds, known as tics. Ecopipam works by affecting certain chemicals in the brain that are thought to be involved in causing these tics. The goal of this study is to see if Ecopipam can be used safely over a long period of time in children, teenagers, and adults who have Tourette’s Disorder. Participants in this study have previously taken part in other related studies, and this trial aims to ensure that Ecopipam is safe and well-tolerated when used for an extended period.

Investigated Diseases:

Tourette's disorder

Tourette’s Disorder – Tourette’s Disorder is a neurological condition characterized by repetitive, involuntary movements and vocalizations called tics. These tics can be motor, such as blinking or shrugging, or vocal, such as grunting or repeating words. The disorder typically begins in childhood, with symptoms often appearing between the ages of 5 and 10. Tics can vary in frequency and intensity, sometimes becoming more noticeable during periods of stress or excitement. Over time, the type and severity of tics may change, with some individuals experiencing a reduction in symptoms as they age. The exact cause of Tourette’s Disorder is not fully understood, but it is believed to involve a combination of genetic and environmental factors.
