A 6-month, Multicenter, Randomized, Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetic, and Preliminary Efficacy Study of AZD5213 in Adolescents With Tourette's Disorder

This is a two-part, randomized, multi-center, blinded study in adolescents with Tourette's
Disorder. There will be an up to 21-day screening period in which subject eligiblity willl
be determined. In Part 1 of the study, the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of
AZD5213 will be assessed during a 1- week period.

In Part 2 of the study, the safety, tolerability, and preliminary efficacy of two doses
(depending on tolerability in Part 1 of the study) of AZD5213 and placebo will be assessed
through six consecutive four-week crossover periods. Each subject will receive both AZD 5213
and placebo. A follow-up vist will take place at 14 (±) 7 days following the last dose of
study drug.

This is a multicenter, randomized, two-part study of AZD5213 in adolescents (ages 12-17
years) with TD.

In Part 1 of the study, following an up to 21-day screening period, on Day 1, after baseline
procedures are performed, eligible subjects will receive a single, low dose of AZD5213,
in-clinic.

After study drug dosing on Day 1, safety and tolerability will be assessed in-clinic, and
blood samples will be taken for pharmacokinetic (PK) analysis. On Days 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7
subjects will take study drug, and will be contacted via telephone and adverse events and
concomitant medications will be assessed. On Day 8, safety, tolerability, and blood sampling
for PK analysis (predose and 2-4 hours post-dose) will be performed in-clinic. Part 2 of
the study will consist of six consecutive crossover periods. In Part 2 of the study, each
study drug will be administered in two 4-week periods (six treatment periods, total). Each
study drug will be received in one of Periods 1-3, and again in one of Periods 4-6.
Approximately 24 subjects will receive study drug in Part 1 of this study in order to
complete approximately 18 subjects in Part 2.

Inclusion Criteria:

1. Male or female, between the ages of ≥ 12 and < 18 years at baseline (Day 1).

2. Meets Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fourth Edition, Text
Revision (DSM-IV-TR) criteria for TD, as assessed by the Kiddie-SADS (Schedule for
Affective Disorders and Schizophrenia)-Present and Lifetime Version (K-SADS-PL) Tic
Disorder Supplement and clinical interview.

3. Yale Global Tic Severity Scale (YGTSS) Total Tic Severity Score (TTS) ≥ 20 at Screen
and baseline (Day 1).

4. Symptoms of TD must impair school, occupational, and/or social function.

5. Written informed assent or consent provided by the subject, and written informed
consent provided by the parent(s)/guardians(s), as appropriate per the IRB/EC. 6.
Weight ≥ 40 kg at the screening and baseline (Day 1) visits.

7. In the opinion of the investigator, the subject and designated guardian(s) and/or
parent(s) must be considered likely to comply with the study protocol and to have a high
probability of completing the study.

Exclusion Criteria:

Subjects should not enter the study if any of the following exclusion criteria are
fulfilled:

1. Prior participation in any AZD5213 study.

2. Acute suicidality as evidenced by answering "yes" for question #4 or question #5 on
the Columbia-Suicide Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS), indicating active suicidal
ideation with any intent to act, at Screen or baseline (Day 1).

3. Pregnant or breast-feeding females.

4. History of seizure disorder other than a single childhood febrile seizure.

5. Presence of any psychiatric or neurologic disorder or symptom, if, in the judgment of
the investigator, the psychiatric or neurologic disorder or symptom is likely to
confound interpretation of drug effect or affect the subject's ability to complete
the study. 6. Any clinically important abnormality as determined by the investigator
at Screen or baseline (Day 1) in physical or neurologic examination, vital sign, ECG,
or clinical laboratory test results that could be detrimental to the subject or could
affect the subject's ability to complete the study.

7. History or presence of any clinically important medical condition that, in the
judgement of the investigator, is likely to deteriorate, could be detrimental to the
subject, or could affect the subject's ability to complete the study.

8. History or presence of a clinically important sleep disorder.
