Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Have participated in and completed the NBI-98854-1501 (T-Force Green) or NBI-98854-1505 (T-Forward) Phase 2 study
  • Have a clinical diagnosis of Tourette Syndrome (TS)
  • If using maintenance medication(s) for TS or TS spectrum diagnoses (e.g. obsessive-compulsive disorder [OCD], Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder [ADHD]), be on stable doses
  • Subjects of childbearing potential who do not practice total abstinence must agree to use hormonal or two forms of nonhormonal contraception (dual contraception) consistently during the screening, treatment and follow-up periods of the study
  • Adolescent and adult subjects (12 to 64 years of age) must have a negative urine drug screen for amphetamines, barbiturates, benzodiazepine, phencyclidine, cocaine, opiates, or cannabinoids and a negative alcohol screen. Subjects who are on stable doses of prescribed and supervised (not as needed) benzodiazepines, opiates, or psychostimulants (for subjects with comorbid ADHD) are allowed to participate in the study

  • Have a blood loss ≥250 mL or donated blood within 56 days prior to screening (subjects 6 to 17 years of age); have a blood loss ≥550 mL or donated blood within 30 days prior to screening (subjects 18 to 64 years of age)
  • Have a known history of substance dependence, substance (drug) or alcohol abuse
  • Have a significant risk of suicidal or violent behavior
  • Have initiated Comprehensive Behavioral Intervention for Tics (CBIT) during the screening period or at baseline or plan to initiate CBIT during the study

Design Details

  • Primary Purpose: Treatment
  • Allocation: Non-Randomized
  • Interventional Model: Single Group Assignment
  • Masking: None (Open Label)

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: Valbenazine (Children)
Children (6 to 11 years of age) received valbenazine 10 mg once daily for 4 weeks. At the end of Week 4, investigators could escalate the dose to 20 mg or continue with the participant's current dose for the remainder of the treatment period.
Other Names:
  • NBI-98854
Experimental: Valbenazine (Adolescents)
Adolescents (12 to 17 years of age) received valbenazine 20 mg once daily for 4 weeks. At the end of Week 4, investigators could escalate the dose to 40 mg or continue with the participant's current dose for the remainder of the treatment period.
Other Names:
  • NBI-98854
Experimental: Valbenazine (Adults)
Adults (18 to 64 years of age) received valbenazine 40 mg once daily for 4 weeks. At the end of Week 4, investigators could escalate the dose to 80 mg or continue with the participant's current dose for the remainder of the treatment period.
Other Names:
  • NBI-98854
