Citalopram: A furancarbonitrile that is one of the serotonin uptake inhibitors used as an antidepressant. The drug is also effective in reducing ethanol uptake in alcoholics and is used in depressed patients who also suffer from TARDIVE DYSKINESIA in preference to tricyclic antidepressants, which aggravate dyskinesia.
citalopram : A racemate comprising equimolar amounts of (R)-citalopram and its enantiomer, escitalopram. It is used as an antidepressant, although only escitalopram is active.
1-[3-(dimethylamino)propyl]-1-(4-fluorophenyl)-1,3-dihydro-2-benzofuran-5-carbonitrile : A nitrile that is 1,3-dihydro-2-benzofuran-5-carbonitrile in which one of the hydrogens at position 1 is replaced by a p-fluorophenyl group, while the other is replaced by a 3-(dimethylamino)propyl group.

Trial Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measurements to Determine Efficacy of Treatment With CM-AT Versus Placebo for Changes in the Aberrant Behavior Checklist Subscale for Irritability / Agitation (ABC-I) Between Baseline and Week 12/Termination Visit

Primary outcome measurements to determine efficacy of treatment with CM-AT versus Placebo for changes in the Aberrant Behavior Checklist (ABC) - Community sub scale for Irritability/Agitation (ABC-I) between baseline (subject's initial measurement) and Week 12/Termination (subject's final measurement) visit. Participants were between 3 through to 6 years old inclusive and took 900mg CM-AT or Placebo three times daily. The ABC-I is one of five discrete sub scales measured by the ABC. The scale range is 0-45. A higher score reflects higher severity of symptoms (irritability). Scores are obtained via Parent Rated Questionnaire. Parents respond to a series of questions on a scale directly into an electronic data capture system (EDC), responding: 0 = not at all a problem 1 = the behavior is a problem but slight in degree 2 = the problem is moderately serious 3 = the problem is severe in degree. The score was automatically calculated by the EDC. (NCT02410902)
Timeframe: Screening through Week 12/Termination

Secondary Outcome Measurements of Changes in the Aberrant Behavior Checklist Checklist Subscale for Lethargy / Social Withdrawal (ABC-L) Between Baseline and Week 12/Termination Visit

Secondary outcome measurements to determine efficacy of treatment with CM-AT versus Placebo for changes in the Aberrant Behavior Checklist- Community (ABC) sub scale for Lethargy / Social Withdrawal (ABC-L) between baseline (subject's initial measurement) and Week 12/Termination (subject's final measurement) visit. Participants were between 3 through to 6 years old inclusive and took 900mg CM-AT or Placebo three times daily. The ABC-L is one of five discrete sub scales measured by the ABC. The scale range is 0-48. A higher score reflects higher severity of symptoms (lethargy). Scores are obtained via Parent Rated Questionnaire. Parents respond to a series of questions on a scale directly into an electronic data capture system (EDC), responding: 0 = not at all a problem 1 = the behavior is a problem but slight in degree 2 = the problem is moderately serious 3 = the problem is severe in degree.
