An Open-Label, Long Term Safety Study of SD-809 ER in Subjects With Chorea Associated With Huntington Disease
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of
SD-809 ER in subjects switching from tetrabenazine to SD-809 ER. In addition, the safety and
tolerability of long term treatment with SD-809 ER will be assessed in "Switch" subjects as
well as "Rollover" subjects completing a randomized, double blind, placebo controlled study
of SD-809 ER,
SD-809 ER in subjects switching from tetrabenazine to SD-809 ER. In addition, the safety and
tolerability of long term treatment with SD-809 ER will be assessed in "Switch" subjects as
well as "Rollover" subjects completing a randomized, double blind, placebo controlled study
of SD-809 ER,
Inclusion Criteria:

Screening.

features, and has a documented expanded CAG repeat (≥ 37) at or before Screening.
