    General information about the trial
    Main objective of the trial
    The primary objective was to evaluate the long-term safety and tolerability of aripiprazole once-daily treatment with oral tablets in children and adolescents (7 -17 years of age) with a diagnosis of Tourette's Disorder (TD). The secondary objective was to evaluate the efficacy of once-daily aripiprazole in the suppression of tics in children and adolescents with a diagnosis of TD, as measured by change from baseline to endpoint on the total tic score (TTS) of the Yale Global Tic Severity Scale (YGTSS).
    Protection of trial subjects
    In accordance with the International Conference on Harmonisation (ICH) Good Clinical Practice (GCP) Consolidated Guideline and the applicable local laws and regulatory requirements of the countries in which the trial was conducted, copies of the protocol, amendments, informed consent form (ICF), informed assent form, and subject recruitment materials were reviewed and approved by the governing institutional review board (IRB) or independent ethics committee (IEC).

    The AIMS assessment consists of 10 items describing symptoms of dyskinesia. Facial and oral movements (items 1 through 4), extremity movements (items 5 and 6), and trunk movements (item 7) were observed unobtrusively while the participant was at rest, and the investigator also made global judgments on the participant's dyskinesias (items 8 through 10). Each item was rated on a 5-point scale, with a score of 0 representing absence of symptoms (for item 10, no awareness), and a score of 4 indicating a severe condition (for item 10, awareness/severe distress). In addition, the AIMS included 2 yes/no questions that addressed the subject’s dental status (since an edentulous state can cause lingual dyskinesias). The AIMS movement rating score (range 0 to 28) was the sum of the rating scores for facial and oral moments (ie, items 1 to 4), extremity movements (ie, items 5 and 6), and trunk movements (ie, item 7).

    Change from Baseline in Barnes Akathisia Rating Scale (BARS) total score. [10]
    End point description
    The BARS consists of 4 items related to akathisia: objective observation of akathisia by the investigator, subjective feelings of restlessness by the participant, participant distress due to akathisia, and global evaluation of akathisia. The first 3 items were rated on a 4-point scale, with a score of 0 representing absence of symptoms and a score of 3 representing a severe condition. The global clinical evaluation was made on a 6-point scale, with 0 representing absence of symptoms and a score of 5 representing severe akathisia. To complete this scale, participants were observed while they were seated and then standing for a minimum of 2 minutes in each position. The BARS global score (range 0 to 5) was derived from the global clinical assessment of akathisia from the BARS panel.

    Change from Baseline in Suicidal Ideation Intensity Total Score based on Columbia-Suicide Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS). [11]
    End point description
    The C-SSRS consists of a baseline evaluation that assesses the lifetime experience of the participant with suicide events and suicidal ideation and a post baseline/“since last visit” evaluation that focuses on suicidality since the last trial visit. The C-SSRS data at Baseline and post baseline were summarized for incidence of reporting: Suicidality, Suicidal behavior (and its 4 types), Suicidal ideation (and its 5 types). The intensity score of each item ranges from 1 (least severe) to 5 (most severe), which leads to the range of the total score from 0 to 25.

    End point description
    The SNAP-IV Rating Scale is a revision of the SNAP Questionnaire. The SNAP-IV assesses inattention and hyperactivity/impulsivity, as well as oppositional defiant disorder that are often present in children with ADD/ADHD. The SNAP-IV was administered as a semi-structured interview with the participant and caregiver. The SNAP-IV is based on a 0 to 3 rating scale: not at all = 0, just a little = 1, quite a bit = 2, and very much = 3. The ADD/ADHD subscale includes items 1 through 19 (items 1–9 measure inattention, items 11–19 measure hyperactivity/ impulsivity, and item 10 for inattention domain), items 4, 8, 11, 31, and 32 measure inattention/overactivity, and items 21, 23, 29, 34, and 35 measure aggression/defiance. Items 4, 8, 11, 21, 32, 33, 36, 37, 38, and 39 form the Conners Index.

    Change from Baseline in Children’s Yale-Brown Obsessive Compulsive Scale (CY-BOCS). [13]
    End point description
    The CY-BOCS is a semi-structured interview used with children and adolescents aged 6 to 17 years to rate the severity and type of symptoms in participants with obsessive compulsive disorder. In general, the items depend on the participant's report; however, the final rating is based on the clinical judgment of the interviewer and should include additional information supplied by others. Nineteen items are rated in the CY-BOCS, but only items 1 through 10 (excluding items 1b and 6b) are used to determine the total score. The total CY-BOCS score is the sum of items 1 through 10 (excluding lb and 6b), whereas the obsession and compulsion subtotals are the sums of items 1 through 5 (excluding lb) and 6 through 10 (excluding 6b), respectively.

    Change from Baseline in Children’s Depression Rating Scale - Revised (CDRS-R). [14]
    End point description
    Modeled after the Hamilton Rating Scale for Depression, the CDRS-R has long been used to diagnose depression and determine its severity. The CDRS-R is a brief rating scale based on a semi-structured interview with the child and an adult informant who knows the child well. Designed for 6- to 12-year-old children, and successfully used with adolescents, it can be administered in 15 to 20 minutes. The interviewer rates 17 symptom areas (including those that serve as Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fourth Edition-Text Revision criteria for a diagnosis of depression): impaired schoolwork, difficulty having fun, social withdrawal, appetite disturbance, sleep disturbance, excessive fatigue, physical complaints, irritability, excessive guilt, low self-esteem, depressed feelings, morbid ideas, suicidal ideas, excessive weeping, depressed facial affect, listless speech, and hypoactivity.

    Change from Baseline in Pediatric Anxiety Rating Scale (PARS). [15]
    End point description
    The PARS is used to rate the severity of anxiety in children and adolescents, aged 6 to 17 years. The PARS has 2 sections: the symptom checklist and the severity items. The symptom checklist is used to determine the child’s repertoire of symptoms during the past week. The 7-item severity list is used to determine severity of symptoms and the PARS total score. The time frame for the PARS is the past week. Only those symptoms endorsed for the past week are included in the symptom checklist and rated on the severity items. The PARS total severity score was the sum of items 2, 3, 5, 6, and 7. Codes “8” (Not applicable) and “9” (Does not know) are equivalent to 0 in the summation. The total severity score ranged from 0 to 25.

    Change from Baseline to endpoint on the Total Tic Score (TTS) of the Yale Global Tic Severity Scale (YGTSS).
    End point description
    The YGTSS is a semi-structured clinical interview designed to measure current tic severity. This scale consists of a tic inventory, with 5 separate ratings to assess the number, intensity, frequency, complexity and interference of tics, plus an overall impairment/disability score. The YGTSS is a validated measurement that has been widely used in clinical trials, has been demonstrated to be sensitive to treatment effects, and represents the “reference standard” in paediatric tic assessment. Ratings are made along 5 different dimensions on a scale of 0 to 5 for motor and vocal tics each, including number, frequency, intensity, complexity, and interference. Summation of these 10 scores (ie, 0-50) provides a TTS that was the secondary outcome measure in this trial. The YGTSS ranking of impairment, with a maximum of 50 points, is based on the impact of the tic disorder on areas of self-esteem, family life, social acceptance, and school scores.

    The CGI is a 7-point Likert scale used in a multitude of clinical trials as a clinical global measure to assess the severity and change in disease symptomatology (ie, tics). The CGI was included as a secondary scale to provide a more complete assessment of clinical efficacy. The CGI-TS change score obtained from CGI-TS improvement scale assessment. The CGI-TS improvement scale was rated in reference to the participant's baseline condition at the time of entry into the open-label study rather than the CGI-TS baseline condition at the time the participant enrolled into the parent trial. Response choices were 0 = not assessed, 1 = very much improved, 2 = much improved, 3 = minimally improved, 4 = no change, 5 = minimally worse, 6 = much worse, and 7 = very much worse.
