About this study
Official title: A Phase 2, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Study to Assess the Efficacy and Safety of NBI-98854 for the Treatment of Tardive Dyskinesia in Subjects With Schizophrenia or Schizoaffective Disorder
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of two doses (50 and 100 mg) of NBI-98854 administered once daily for the treatment of Tardive Dyskinesia (TD) symptoms.
Read the detailed description
This is a Phase 2, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel group study to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of two doses (50 and 100 mg) of NBI-98854 administered once daily for up to 2 weeks. The study will also allow for an evaluation of the efficacy of NBI-98854 50 mg once daily for up to 6 weeks and the safety and tolerability of NBI 98854 50 mg once daily for up to 12 weeks.
The double-blind placebo-controlled treatment period the study has three arms:
- NBI-98854 50 mg once daily for 6 weeks
- NBI-98854 100 mg once daily for 2 weeks followed by 50 mg once daily for the remaining 4 weeks
- placebo
At the end of the 6-week placebo-controlled double-blind treatment period, subjects will continue in the study for an additional 6-week open-label period where all subjects who have completed the double-blind treatment period will receive NBI-98854 50 mg once daily. Two and four weeks after the last dose of study drug, follow-up assessments will be performed.

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Abnormal Involuntary Movement Scale (AIMS) Dyskinesia Total Score Change From Baseline at Week 6
The AIMS Total Dyskinesia Score rates a total of 7 items, rating involuntary movement from 0 (no dyskinesia) to 4 (severe dyskinesia). Items 1 through 7 include facial and oral movements (Items 1-4), extremity movements (Items 5-6), and trunk movements (Item 7). The AIMS dyskinesia total score for Items 1-7 ranges from 0 to 28; a higher score reflects increased severity. The primary efficacy endpoint was the change from baseline in the AIMS dyskinesia total score at Week 6 between the pooled NBI-98854 50+100 mg group and placebo group analyzed using the ANCOVA model (LOCF, ITT analysis set).
Measured: Baseline and Week 6
Secondary outcomes (2)
Clinical Global Impression - Global Improvement of TD (CGI-TD)
Clinician's perspective of the participant's overall improvement of TD symptoms over time. The CGI-TD is based on a 7-point scale (range: 1=very much improved to 7=very much worse). The ANOVA analysis of CGI-TD was conducted for the pooled NBI-98854 50+100 mg group and placebo group.
Measured: Week 6
Clinical Global Impression - Global Improvement of TD (CGI-TD) at Week 2
Clinician's perspective of the participant's overall improvement of TD symptoms over time. The CGI-TD is based on a 7-point scale (range: 1=very much improved to 7=very much worse).
Measured: Week 2

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 2 study testing NBI-98854 in people with Tardive Dyskinesia, run by Neurocrine Biosciences at 51 sites in 2 countries.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 9 inclusion and 10 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 8 Nov 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 51 sites in United States, Puerto Rico. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
What does this phase mean?
Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
Are results available for this study?
Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 8 Nov 2017). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Abnormal Involuntary Movement Scale (AIMS) Dyskinesia Total Score Change From Baseline at Week 6 (time frame: Baseline and Week 6). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01688037, which also lists 1 linked publication.
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 8 Nov 2017.
