E.2 Objective of the trial |
E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial |
Test the hypothesis that antibiotic treatment of GAS colonisation compared to placebo is associated with a larger reduction of tic and associated neuropsychiatric symptoms in the short-term (1 month) in patients with a tic disorder colonised by GAS. |
Verificar la hipotesis de que el tratamiento antibiotico de la colonización por GAS comparado con placebo se asocia a una mayor reducción de los tics y de los sintomas neuropsiquiatricos a sociados a corto plazo( 1 mes) en pacientes con desordenes de tic colonizados por GAS. |
|
E.2.2 | Secondary objectives of the trial |
Test the hypothesis that antibiotic treatment of GAS colonisation is superior to placebo in the long-term (1 year) reduction of tic and associated neuropsychiatric symptoms in patients with a tic disorder colonized by GAS. Investigate the influence of possible moderators on treatment outcome. Investigate the effects of antibiotic treatment on patient?s immune responses to GAS antigens. |
comprobar la hipotesis de que el ttatamiento antibiotico de la colonización por GAS es superior al tratamiento placebo en la reducción de los tics y de los sintomas neuropsiquiatricos asociados a largo plazo ( 1 año). Investigar la influencia de posibles mediadores en el resultado. Investigar los efectos del tratamiento antibiotico de los pacientes en la respuesta inmune frente a antigenos GAS. |
