Filter by:This study will evaluate the effectiveness of two different psychosocial therapies, parent management training and collaborative problem solving, in treating children with oppositional-defiant disorder.
This is a clinical study of a cognitive-behavioral therapy known as anger control training in adolescents with Tourette Syndrome and explosive, disruptive behavior. ACT is compared to treatment as usual (TAU) in a randomized clinical trial.
A three-arm, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, Phase 4, multicenter study to compare the efficacy and safety of atomoxetine versus placebo in children and adolescents aged 6 through 17 years with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and comorbid oppositional defiant disorder (ODD) who are treated as outpatients in Germany. After an initial 3- to 28-day screening and washout phase, participants will be assigned to double-blind treatment with atomoxetine or placebo. A 2 week up-titration period will be succeeded by a 7 week treatment period at the target dose. The primary efficacy measure will be the Swanson, Nolan and Pelham Rating Scale Revised (SNAP-IV) ODD subscale score.
This study will examine the effectiveness of a multiple family group mental health service delivery strategy in improving mental health service use and outcome for urban, low income children of color, ages 7-11 years old with disruptive behaviors and their families.
This study was developed in order to assess the effects of risperidone (Risperdal) as compared with placebo on cognitive-motor performance (attention, memory, and hand steadiness) and body movements. We propose to study the effects of risperidone on cognitive-motor performance in children already medicated for severe conduct problems. We would also like to look at safety by assessing these children for dyskinetic movements. We already have a sizable cohort of children maintained on risperidone. Our hypotheses are as follows: 1. Risperidone will have no adverse effects on cognitive-motor performance in children who have received maintenance therapy for 4 to 20 months. 2. Children tested during placebo will show no more dyskinetic movements than during risperidone treatment (i.e., there will be no unmasking of tardive dyskinesia).
This study will compare two programs to see if they are helpful in preventing the use of substances in adolescents with attention deficit-hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), oppositional defiant disorder (ODD), or conduct disorder (CD). One of the programs involves working with adolescents and their parent(s) in their home. The other program involves working with adolescents and their parent(s) in an office setting.
The purpose of the study is to assess the effectiveness and safety of an oral solution of risperidone (an antipsychotic medication) versus placebo in the treatment of conduct disorder in children with mild, moderate, or borderline mental retardation.
The purpose of the study is to assess the safety and effectiveness of oral risperidone (an antipsychotic medication) in the treatment of conduct disorder and other disruptive behavior disorders in children ages 5 to 12 with mild, moderate, or borderline mental retardation.
This study will assess whether adding a mood stabilizer, divalproex sodium, to stimulant treatment is more effective than stimulant treatment alone in reducing aggressive behavior among children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).
The project aims to describe and compare the outcome of 12 weeks of prospective, randomized treatment with olanzapine, risperidone or aripiprazole on insulin action in skeletal muscle, liver and adipose tissue, abdominal fat mass, total body and fat-free mass, efficacy for symptoms of aggression and non-metabolic adverse events. Children aged 6-18 will be studied, exploring effects of stimulant therapy and age-related differences in vulnerability to treatment-induced adverse metabolic changes. Aims are addressed by measuring glucose and lipid kinetics with stable isotope tracers, body composition with dual energy x-ray absorptiometry and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and standardized assessments of efficacy and adverse events. Relevant data are critically needed to target clinical therapy and basic research, identify medical risks, and guide regulatory decisions in this vulnerable population.
