This study is designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of gemlapodect (NOE-105) on reducing tics associated with Tourette Syndrome (TS) in adults with TS. Adolescents will be enrolled after a sentinel cohort of adults is complete.
Gemlapodect is an investigational selective PDE10A inhibitor with a potential therapeutic effect for the treatment of tics associated with Tourette Syndrome (TS). This is a multi-center, double-blind, parallel-arm, placebo-controlled study in patients with TS. Following screening to confirm eligibility and to wash-out previous TS medication during a 14-day placebo run-in, patients will be randomized 1:1 on Day 1 to receive gemlapodect or placebo once daily for 12 weeks.

Gemlapodect is an investigational selective PDE10A inhibitor with a potential therapeutic effect for the treatment of tics associated with TS. Administered in the form of oral capsules.
Administered in the form of oral capsules with inert ingredients.
Change in tic severity score on the Revised Yale Global Tic Scoring Scale (YGTSS-R)
YGTSS-R is a clinician rated score that evaluates number, frequency, intensity, complexity and interference of motor and phonic tics with a total score ranging from 0 to 50, with 50 being the most severe and 0 being no tics. Change in YGTSS-R total tic scores from baseline (randomization) to D85 for gemlapodect as compared to placebo. The primary estimand is the difference in means between gemlapodect and placebo for the change in the TTS of the YGTSS-R from baseline (randomization) to D85, in the target patient population of adult and adolescent patients with TS, regardless of whether or not dose reduction, suspension, or treatment discontinuation occurred due to events attributable to treatment, and regardless of change in background medication (dose and product) while under treatment, but in the absence of any new treatment started after discontinuation of investigational intervention

Impact on patient functioning
Change in Sheehan Disability Scale from baseline (randomization) to D85 for gemlapodect as compared to placebo
Time frame: 85 days
Change in PUTS
Change in premonitory urge for tics scale from baseline (randomization) to D85 for gemlapodect as compared to placebo

Safety and Tolerability of gemlapodect
The Incidence and severity of adverse events, including serious adverse events and adverse events of special interest
Time frame: 85 days
Assessment of suicidality and suicidal ideation
Change in Columbia Suicide Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS) subscale from baseline(randomization) to D85 for gemlapodect as compared to placebo. The C-SSRS supports suicide risk assessment through a series of simple, plain-language questions to assesses suicidal ideation and suicidal behavior.
