To achieve prospective registration, we recommend submitting your trial for registration at the same time as ethics submission.

The safety and scientific validity of this study is the responsibility of the study sponsor and investigators. Listing a study does not mean it has been endorsed by the ANZCTR. Before participating in a study, talk to your health care provider and refer to this information for consumers

Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Treatment: Drugs - SD-809

Experimental: Rollover Cohort: SD-809 ER - Participants who completed study SD-809-C-15 (NCT01795859, including 1-week washout period and Week 13 evaluation), will receive 6 milligrams (mg) SD-809 ER tablet once daily as a starting dose in this study. Dose titration will be continued through Week 8 to optimize dose. Dose of SD-809 ER can be adjusted weekly in increments of 6 milligrams per day (mg/day) (6 or 12 mg/day after a total daily dose of 48 mg is reached) based on chorea control and adverse events. Daily doses of SD-809 ER 12 mg and higher will be administered twice daily. Maximum total daily dose of SD-809 ER will be 72 mg/day (36 mg twice daily), unless participant is receiving a strong CYP2D6 inhibitor(such as, paroxetine, buproprion, fluoxetine), in which case maximum total daily dose will be 42 mg (21 mg twice daily). Long-term treatment with SD-809 ER at a stable dose (further dose adjustments are permitted, if clinically indicated) will be continued until SD-809 ER become commercially available in United States.

Experimental: Switch Cohort: SD-809 ER - Participants who were receiving an approved dosing regimen of tetrabenazine for at least 8 weeks prior to screening, will be converted overnight from their existing tetrabenazine regimen to SD-809 ER regimen to achieve targeted steady-state area under the curve (AUC) of total (alpha+beta)- Dihydrotetrabenazine (HTBZ) metabolites that is predicted to be comparable to that of participant's prior tetrabenazine regimen. Participants will remain on initial dose of SD-809 ER through Week 1. Dose adjustment will be continued through Week 4 to optimize the dose. Dose of SD-809 ER can be adjusted weekly (upward or downward) in increments of 6 mg per day (6 mg/day or 12 mg/day after a total daily dose of 48 mg is reached), based on chorea control and treatment regimen tolerability. Long-term treatment with SD-809 ER at a stable dose (although further dose adjustments are permitted, if clinically indicated) will be continued until SD-809 ER become commercially available in United States.


Treatment: Drugs: SD-809
SD-809 tablets will be provided in dose strengths of 6, 9 and 12 mg.
