Patient meets the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fifth Edition (DSM-V) diagnostic criteria for TS and, in the opinion of the investigator, patient, and caregiver/adult, the patient's active tics are causing distress or impairment. d. Patient has a TTS of 20 or higher on the YGTSS at screening and baseline. e. Patient is able to swallow study medication whole. f. Patient and caregiver/adult are willing to adhere to the medication regimen and to comply with all study procedures. g. Patient is in good general health, as indicated by medical and psychiatric history as well as physical and neurological examination. h.

Patient and caregiver/adult provided written informed consent according to local regulations (eg, the patient has provided written assent and/or co-consent for patients 14 years of age and older, as appropriate). j. Females of childbearing potential may be included only if they have a negative ß-human chorionic gonadotropin test at baseline or are sterile. Definitions of sterile given in Appendix L. k. Females of childbearing potential whose male partners are potentially fertile (ie, no vasectomy) or female partners of male participants must use highly effective birth control methods for the duration of the study (ie, starting at screening) and for 30 days or 5 half-lives, whichever is longer after last dose of IMP.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: a. Patient has a neurologic disorder other than TS that could obscure the evaluation of tics. b. The patient's predominant movement disorder is stereotypy (coordinated movements that repeat continually and identically) associated with Autism Spectrum Disorder. c. Patient has a confirmed diagnosis of bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, or another psychotic disorder. d. Patient has clinically significant depression at screening or baseline. Note: Patients receiving antidepressant therapy may be enrolled if on a stable dose for at least 6 weeks before screening. e.

Patient has clinically significant OCD at baseline that, in the opinion of the investigator, is the primary cause of impairment. i. Patient has received CBIT for TS or CBT for OCD within 4 weeks of screening. j. Patient has received any of the following concomitant medications for tics within the specified exclusionary windows of screening: -Within 3 months: depot neuroleptics, botulinum toxin, or tetrabenazine -Within 21 days: reserpine -Within 14 days: neuroleptics (oral), typical and atypical antipsychotics, metoclopramide, levodopa, and dopamine agonists Note: Use of benzodiazepines is allowed if primary use is not for tics and dosing has been stable for at least 4 weeks before screening. Note: Use of topiramate (up to 200 mg/day) is allowed if dosing has been stable for at least 4 weeks before screening. Note: Use of guanfacine or clonidine is allowed if dosing has been stable for at least 4 weeks before screening. k. Patient has received treatment with deep brain stimulation, or transmagnetic stimulation or transcranial direct current stimulation for reduction of tics within 4 weeks of the screening visit. l. Patient has an unstable or serious medical illness at screening or baseline m. Patient has a QT interval corrected for heart rate using Frederica's formula (QTcF) interval value >450 msec (males) or >460 msec (females) or >480msec (with right bundle branch block) on 12-lead ECG at screening, OR requires treatment with drugs known to prolong the QT interval n.

Patient has evidence of hepatic impairment, as indicated by: -Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) or alanine aminotransferase (ALT) >2.5 × the upper limit of the normal range (ULN) at screening - Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) or total bilirubin (Tbil) >2 × ULN at screening Note: Patients with Gilbert's Syndrome are eligible to participate if approved by the medical monitor.
