Gilles de la Tourette Syndrome clinical trials

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.

Objective Characterizatoion of Repetitive Behaviors

Start date: November 1, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Introduction: Repetitive behaviors (RB) constitute a broad range of symptoms across different psychiatric/neurologic disorders. The most famous are stereotypies (found in autism), compulsions (found in obsessive-compulsive-disorder, OCD) and tics (found in Gilles de la Tourette syndrome, GTS). For some patients, it is sometime difficult to distinguish the nature of the repetitive behaviors presented, however this distinction is crucial in order to chose the appropriate treatment. Aim: In our study, the investigators will try to define electrophysiological and accelerometric marker of both OCD and tics to allow objective distinction between both tics and compulsions. Method: Subjects: Both OCD and GTS patients will be recruited, 25 patients in each group. Protocol: our study protocol will involve two step: a step in laboratory, another step at patient home. - first step: both patients group will be recorded through a high density EEG and a portative EEG while doing a task of symptom provocation. Then they will get an anatomical MRI for source recontruction. Finally, the patients will have to mimic their symptom while wearing an accelerometer (a smartwatch). - second step: both patient groups will be recorded at home through a portative EEG while tagging their symptom through a smartwatch (also used for accelerometry). After the recording, the patients will keep the smartwatch for 2 weeks, still tagging their sympoms (compulsions or tics).
