Clinical Trial Summary

Tourette's Syndrome is a neurological disease characterized by motor and vocal tics. It has been hypothesized that abnormal interactions of dopamine with its receptors may cause the tics. The purpose of this study is to test the hypothesis that a drug (ecopipam) that selectively blocks dopamine D1/D5 receptors can reduce the frequency and severity of the tics.


Clinical Trial Description

This is a double blind, randomized, placebo-controlled crossover study to determine whether ecopipam can reduce the symptoms of Tourette's in children age 7-17 years. ;
