Filter by:The goal of the current trial is to determine efficacy and safety of Once-daily aripiprazole in reducing Total Tic Severity in children and adolescents with Tourette's Disorder.
The purpose of this study is to examine the effects of EPI-743 on tic severity in adults with Tourette syndrome.
The aim of this study is to train patients with tic disorders to control activity in a region of their brain that has been associated with the urge to tic. Patients will be given direct feedback regarding activity in this brain area while they are undergoing functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) scanning, and will try to learn to control activity in the region during these feedback sessions. In separate sessions, patients will be given sham feedback based on the brain patterns of a prior subject rather than their own brain patterns. Our primary hypothesis is that the biofeedback training will reduce their tic symptoms more than the sham feedback.
The purpose of this study is to investigate whether deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the globus pallidus internum (GPi) can alleviate tics in Gilles de la Tourette syndrome (GTS) and whether this treatment has any influence on social, psychological and behavioral disability and quality of life.
The purpose of this study is to determine if vigabatrin, an unusual anti-seizure medication, will diminish the Tourette Disorder outbursts in young adults whose symptoms have persisted into adulthood and have not responded to usual treatment.
The goal of this pilot study is to obtain preliminary information on the tolerability and efficacy of extended release guanfacine (trade name Intuniv) in children with Tourette Disorder (TD, also called Tourette syndrome).
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effective and safety of 5LGr in pediatric patients with tic disorders.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of an investigational compound designated PF-03654746 compared to placebo in the treatment of adults with Tourette's Syndrome. The study will also explore the pharmacokinetics of PF-03654746 in adults with Tourette's Syndrome.
Many researchers suspect that individuals with Tourette Syndrome (TS) may have a poor cognitive ability (i.e., response inhibition; RI) that is essential to inhibit inappropriate response such as vocal or motor tics. The investigators aim to test whether a well-established behavior therapy for TS can be improved by increasing the individual's RI capabilities. To this end, 20 children will be randomly assigned to behavior therapy with computer-based RI training or behavior therapy with placebo computer-based cognitive training. The investigators will test the hypothesis that computer-based RI training can be a useful addition to the well-established behavior therapy to enhance its therapeutic effect.
The goal of the current trial is to determine efficacy and safety of once-weekly aripiprazole in reducing Total Tic Severity (TTS) score in children and adolescents with Tourette's Disorder.
