Detailed Description

This study is to evaluate the long-term safety and tolerability of ecopipam tablets in eligible participants. The eligible participants will be entered into a treatment period and start a 4-week titration phase to achieve a target steady-state dose of 1.8 milligram per kilogram per day (mg/kg/day) ecopipam (2 mg/kg/day dose of ecopipam HCl). During the 4-week titration phase ecopipam will be dispensed following weight bands before reaching their respective maintenance dose until end of the treatment. Safety assessment will be conducted at baseline visit and at all treatment visits (Months 1-12, 15, 18, 21 and 24). Safety follow up visits will be conducted 7 and 14 days and a follow up phone call will be conducted 30 days after the last dose of ecopipam.

Notice

Study information shown on this site is derived from ClinicalTrials.gov (a public registry operated by the National Institutes of Health). The listing of studies provided is not certain to be all studies for which you might be eligible.
