Clinical Trial Results:
An open-label, flexible dose, follow-up study to evaluate safety and efficacy of oral pramipexole (0.0625-0.5 mg/day) for 24 weeks in
children and adolescents (age 6-17 years) diagnosed with Tourette Syndrome according to DSM-IV criteria and who have completed the
double-blind phase of either study 248.641 or 248.644.

General information about the trial
|
|||
Main objective of the trial |
The primary objective of this open-label, flexible dose study is to assess the safety and efficacy of pramipexole over a 24-week period in children and adolescents (age 6-17 years inclusive) diagnosed with Tourette Syndrome according to DSM-IV criteria and who have completed either Study 248.641 or 248.644.
The safety of pramipexole will be evaluated collectively for the incidence of adverse events, the proportion of withdrawals due to drug related adverse events, and the assessment of the following scales:
• Children's Yale-Brown Obsessive Compulsive Scale (CY-BOCS);
• Child Behavior Checklist (CBCL) ;
• DuPaul Attention-Deficit / Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) Rating Scale-IV;
• Child Depression Inventory-Short Version CDI-S;
• Multidimensional Anxiety Scale for Children (MASC).
|
||
Protection of trial subjects |
Only subjects that met all the study inclusion and none of the exclusion criteria were entered in the study. All subjects were free to withdraw from the clinical trial at any time for any reason given. Close monitoring of all subjects was adhered to throughout the trial conduct.

Screening details |
All subjects were screened for eligibility to participate in the trial. Subjects attended specialist sites which would then ensure that the subject met all strictly implemented inclusion/exclusion criteria. Patients with Tourette Syndrome who have completed the preceding Study 248.641 or 248.644 were assessed for entry into this rollover study. | ||||||||||||||||

Notes [1] - The number of subjects reported to be in the baseline period is not equal to the worldwide number of subjects enrolled in the trial. It is expected that these numbers will be the same. Justification: Baseline characteristics are based on patients who were randomised after successfully completing the screening period and received at least one of the trial medication. |

Date |
Amendment |

05 Nov 2008 |
Extended the follow-up period after the end of treatment to optimize patient safety monitoring
• Addition of a phone visit (Visit 12) seven days after Visit 11
• Addition of Visit 13, the final visit, 28 days after Visit 11
• Utilization of a Data Monitoring Committee
• Current expected AE list should be obtained from the Investigator Brochure
• Decision to send study drug to sites in child resistant bottles, not blisters in the maintenance phase
• Clarification of:
- timing of the eye examination;
- duration of the down-titration phase;
- duration and on-study medication supply for down-titration phase;
- thyroid function parameters:
- age-appropriate range for serum creatinine |
||||||
05 May 2009 |
Study medication for the down-titration phase to only be supplied in child-resistant bottles |

Limitations and caveats |
|||||||
Limitations of the trial such as small numbers of subjects analysed or technical problems leading to unreliable data. | |||||||
The sponsor cancelled this trial prematurely. Thus, enrollment for 248.642 (NCT00681863) was significantly less than what was planned (120 planned vs. 45 entered). Therefore, the objectives of this study could not be fully assessed. |
