The open-label study consisted of a 6 week dose-escalation phase and a long-term maintenance phase (clinic visits at Weeks 4, 6 and 15, and every 13 weeks until Week 106). Patients began deutetrabenazine at 12 mg\/day, titrating up to a dose that was tolerable and provided adequate dyskinesia control, based on investigator judgement, with a maximum allowed dose of 48 mg\/day (36 mg\/day for patients taking strong cytochrome P450 2D6 (CYP2D6) inhibitors). Safety measures included incidence of adverse events (AEs) and scales used to monitor parkinsonism, akathisia\/restlessness, anxiety, depression, suicidality and somnolence\/sedation. Efficacy endpoints included the change in Abnormal Involuntary Movement Scale (AIMS) score (items 1 to 7) from baseline and the proportion of patients rated as \u2018Much Improved\u2019 or \u2018Very Much Improved\u2019 on the Clinical Global Impression of Change.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>A total of 343 patients enrolled in the extension study, and there were 331 patient-years of exposure in this analysis. The exposure-adjusted incidence rates of AEs with long-term treatment were comparable to or lower than those observed in the phase 3 trials. The mean (SE) change in AIMS score was \u20134.9 (0.4) at Week 54 (n = 146), \u2013 6.3 (0.7) at Week 80 (n = 66) and \u20135.1 (2.0) at Week 106 (n = 8).<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title><jats:p>Overall, long-term treatment with deutetrabenazine was efficacious, safe, and well tolerated in patients with TD.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Trial registration number<\/jats:title><jats:p><jats:ext-link xmlns:xlink=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/xlink\" ext-link-type=\"clintrialgov\" xlink:href=\"NCT02198794\">NCT02198794<\/jats:ext-link>.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1136\/jnnp-2018-319918","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2019,7,11]],"date-time":"2019-07-11T11:09:01Z","timestamp":1562843341000},"page":"jnnp-2018-319918","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1136\/crossmarkpolicy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":15,"title":["Long-term safety and efficacy of deutetrabenazine for the treatment of tardive dyskinesia"],"prefix":"10.1136","clinical-trial-number":[{"clinical-trial-number":"nct02198794","registry":"10.18810\/clinical-trials-gov"},{"clinical-trial-number":"nct02198794","registry":"10.18810\/clinical-trials-gov"}],"author":[{"given":"Hubert H.","family":"Fernandez","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"David","family":"Stamler","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Mat D.","family":"Davis","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Stewart A.","family":"Factor","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Robert A.","family":"Hauser","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Joohi","family":"Jimenez-Shahed","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"William G.","family":"Ondo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"L.
