Filter by:Persistent developmental stutter / childhood onset fluency disorder is a disabling condition leading to significant communication and psychological disability. Established treatment consists of intensive speech therapy, and whilst initially effective, has a waning long-term benefit. Our research team aims to provide evidence of stutter management by addressing the primary neurological issue in this disorder using Deep Brain Stimulation. The investigators propose to perform bilateral DBS on 3 participants with stutter refractory to intensive speech therapy, to determine a response in their stutter. The assessments will be double-blinded. The investigators will use the outcome of this small pilot study to determine the feasibility and details of a larger randomized controlled trial.
This study is designed to evaluate the effectiveness of NOE-105 on speech fluency without the known antipsychotic-induced side effects of commonly used treatments for childhood onset fluency disorder (COFD).
This is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group, Phase 2 exploratory study in adult subjects with childhood onset fluency disorder.
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and tolerability of ecopipam in reducing stuttering symptoms. It is hypothesized that ecopipam effectively reduces stuttering symptoms as measured on the SSI-IV total score, the CGI, SSS and OASES.
