About this trial

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety of NDTx-03 used together with treatment as usual (TAU) and to determine whether NDTx-03 plus TAU is more effective than TAU alone in improving social situation recognition and interaction in children and adolescents with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) or social communication disorder (SCD).
