Clinical Trial Summary

This study will examine the safety and efficacy of tideglusib vs. placebo for the treatment of core symptom domains in adolescents with Autism Spectrum Disorders


Clinical Trial Description

There are no pharmacologic treatments available for social function deficits in individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD). The data for pharmacologic treatment of repetitive behaviours in this disorder has also become difficult to interpret given that the last two large multisite trials of selective serotonin re-uptake inhibitors (SSRIs) in autism are reported to be negative for the treatment of repetitive behaviours. Only the associated symptom of irritability has 2 drugs with Food and Drug Administration (FDA) indications, whereas no systematic data exists on the pharmacologic treatment of anxiety in ASD, and response rates to stimulants for hyperactivity are lower than what is seen in Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). In addition, there are no biological markers of treatment response identified in this population at this point. This study will examine the potential efficacy and safety of tideglusib for core and associated symptom domains of autism, and will explore biological markers of safety and treatment response. As there is no juvenile toxicity published in the animal model, we will limit the age range to 12 years of age and older. ;
