Study medicine for Tourette syndrome tics in adults
Part of Brain & nervous system, Genetic & congenital, Mental health clinical trials.
This Phase 2 trial tests SCI-110 to reduce Tourette syndrome tics. It may help people whose tics are moderate to severe while they take the study medicine and continue (or keep steady) their usual tic treatments.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have Tourette syndrome confirmed by a standard diagnosis used in clinics (DSM-5)
- You are an adult age 18 to 65
- Your tic severity is high enough based on specific clinic rating scales (total tic score >14 and overall severity score ≥4)
- If you take tic and related-comorbidity treatments (or have deep brain stimulation settings), your doses must be stable for at least 6 weeks and you must agree to keep them stable during the study
- You can understand the study and agree in writing to follow study visits and safety rules
- If you can become pregnant, you must have a negative pregnancy test and use very effective birth control during the study; if you are a man, you must agree to condom use with partners and avoid sperm donation for 3 months after the last dose

This trial tests whether a treatment called TMS, added to an evidence-based therapy called CBIT, can reduce Tourette’s tics more than CBIT alone. You may be assigned to different study groups, and they will also use brain imaging to measure changes.
This study looks at brain activity in people with Tourette syndrome who are already receiving deep brain stimulation (a treatment that uses electrical pulses to help control tics). The goal is to learn more about the brain signals linked to tics, which could help improve future treatments.
This trial tests a surgical procedure using deep brain stimulation to treat severe Tourette syndrome that hasn't improved with other treatments. It may help reduce tics by targeting specific areas in the brain.
This study tests whether combining a brain stimulation technique called TMS with behavioral therapy can reduce tics in adolescents and young adults. If you have had tics for at least a year and they are moderate or severe, this trial may be a good fit.
This study tests a behavioral therapy (CBIT) for children with tics. It uses brain scans (MRI and EEG) to see how the therapy works. It may be a good fit for a child who has had tics for at least a year and hasn't had much of this therapy before.
This trial tests an online behavior therapy program for adults with Tourette syndrome or chronic tic disorder. You'll complete a 10-week internet-based treatment from home, with therapist support, to help reduce your tics.
