About this study

This trial aims to evaluate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of valbenazine, titrated to the subject's optimal dose of 40mg or 80mg, administered once daily, for 12 weeks, for the treatment of trichotillomania (TTM) in a double blind placebo controlled design study. After week 12, subjects will begin a 12-week, open-label portion of the study. During the open-label portion of the study, all subjects will receive the study drug at their optimal dose. The primary endpoint of these studies will be the change from baseline of placebo vs. active scores utilizing the Massachusetts General Hospital Hairpulling Scale (MGH-HPS) at the end of Week 12.
