Filter by:This study is a single site, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled parallel group design. this study is designed to directly examine the efficacy of a single daily dose of atomoxetine taken in the morning in alleviating sleep initiation insomnia in children with ADHD. Primary outcome measures are sleep parameters, specifically mean sleep onset latency (time of onset to persistent sleep), as measured by actigraphy/sleep diary, and parent and child-reported evening settling difficulties, as measured on the evening subscale items of the parent and child versions of the DPREMB-R. Secondary outcome measures include: additional actigraphic sleep parameters (night wakings, sleep duration, and sleep efficiency), daytime sleepiness (Pediatric Daytime Sleepiness Scale, sleepiness visual analogue scale (VAS), and morning behaviors on the DPREMB-R); ADHD symptom improvement (ADHD-RS, parent version; provider-completed CGI); a neurocognitive measure of attention and impulsivity (CPT); executive functions (Brown ADD Scale for Children) and functional outcomes/quality of life (CHQ).
This study compared the efficacy of dex-methylphenidate extended release 20 mg versus placebo during an 8-hour laboratory classroom day.
Evaluate the efficacy of treatment with ADDERALL XR and STRATTERA compared to placebo on simulated driving safety and performance of young adults with ADHD as measured by Driving Safety Scores derived by the Driving Simulator.
The purpose of this study is to assess, in a controlled environment, the efficacy and safety of NRP104 and Adderall XR compared to placebo in treatment of children, aged 6-12, with ADHD.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether CLONICEL® (clonidine HCl sustained release) is a safe and effective treatment for children and adolescents with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).
This study is designed to assess efficacy and safety of NRP-104 administered as a daily dose of 30mg, 50mg or 70mg compared to placebo in the treatment of children aged 6-12 years with ADHD.
The proposed protocol is a 3 group double-blind, placebo-controlled outpatient study of the safety and efficacy of Adderall-XR (ER-MAS) in the treatment of comorbid ADHD and cocaine dependence. Since this medication has independently shown promise in helping with ADHD and cocaine abuse, we are proposing that it may be successful in the treatment of comorbid ADHD and cocaine abuse. We plan to enroll 75 subjects in a 14-week trial. The primary objectives of the study are to determine the efficacy of ER-MAS in promoting cocaine abstinence and improvement in ADHD symptomology among cocaine-dependent patients with comorbid ADHD.
This study aims to establish the psychometric properties of the Adult ADHD Quality of Life Scale (AAQoL) and to validate the diagnosis of adult ADHD by ADHD symptoms, other clinical psychiatric symptoms, neuropsychological functioning, social/family/occupational functioning, and intervention effect.
This is a two-arm, parallel, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase 4 multicenter trial to compare the whole day efficacy of atomoxetine versus placebo in children aged 6 through 12 years with Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) treated in an inpatient, day-patient and outpatient setting in Germany. Core symptoms will be measured during once or bi-weekly visits, three times per visit-day, by a computer based Continuous Performance Test. Following an initial 3-28-day screening and washout phase, patients will be assigned to double-blind treatment with atomoxetine or placebo. In the verum arm, a one-week atomoxetine treatment period with the 0.5 mg/kg per day lead-in dose will be succeeded by a 7 week period at the target dose of 1.2 mg/kg per day.
This is an open-label study of the efficacy of Daytrana (methylphenidate transdermal system) for the treatment of attention and behavioral symptoms in children with Autism Spectrum Disorders. Twenty patients will be enrolled and treated with 10-30 mg of Daytrana for a total of eight weeks. Changes in core hyperactivity, impulsivity, and inattention symptoms, autism spectrum symptoms and functional outcomes will be assessed. Acceptability of the transdermal route of administration in this population will also be assessed. The researchers hypothesize that Daytrana is a safe and effective medication for children with Autism Spectrum Disorders who have symptoms of inattention, hyperactivity and impulsivity.
