Study Summary

The aim of this study is to evaluate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of aripiprazole monotherapy in the treatment of children and adolescents suffering from Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) over a 12-week period. We hypothesize that aripiprazole may be helpful in reducing ASD-associated symptoms of anxiety and aggression, resulting in significant improvements in global outcome.

Primary Outcome

The Clinical Global Impression - Improvement scale (CGI-I) is a 7 point scale that requires the clinician to evaluate how much the patient's illness has improved or worsened compared to their baseline condition at the beginning of the intervention. The ratings are evaluated as: 1, very much improved; 2, much improved; 3, minimally improved; 4, no change; 5, minimally worse; 6, much worse; or 7, very much worse.
