Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine if Abilify will reduce tics (repetitive, uncontrollable movements or vocalizations) in children and adolescents ages 7-18 with Tourette's Disorder (TD) or a chronic motor tic disorder (either repetitive, uncontrollable movements or vocalizations).


Clinical Trial Description

The aims of this study are to obtain systematic data regarding dosing and safety of aripiprazole (Abilify) in the treatment of youth with Tourette's Disorder (TD). Tourette's Disorder is characterized by multiple motor (more than one uncontrollable movement) and vocal tics (vocal outbursts) which have been present for more than 1 year, with onset before the age of 18. The disorder causes marked distress in social, occupational or other important areas of functioning. Abilify has been approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to treat adults with schizophrenia but has not been approved to treat Tourette's Disorder (TD) so it is considered experimental or investigational in this study. ;
