Brief Summary

This study is a multicenter, dose-optimized, open-label safety study with KP415 in children with Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD).

Detailed Description

The study will consist of a Screening Period, a Dose Optimization Phase, and a Treatment Phase and a Follow-Up Visit, as follows:

* Screening Period: Subjects will undergo a screening period up to 30 days prior to entering the Dose Optimization Phase.

* Dose Optimization Phase: During the Dose Optimization Phase, subjects will be titrated to doses of 20, 30 or 40 mg KP415 based on tolerability and best individual dose-response in the opinion of the Investigator.

* Treatment Phase: Eligible subjects will receive single daily doses of KP415 for up to approximately 360 days (up to approximately 12 months). The dose of KP415 given in the Treatment Phase will be the dose of KP415 at the end of the Dose Optimization Phase. During the Treatment Phase, the dose of KP415 may be changed based on individual tolerability and best dose response (to either 20, 30, or 40 mg KP415 capsules). Safety, efficacy and sleep behavior assessments will be performed.

* Follow-Up Visit: 3 ±2 days after administration of the last dose of the Treatment Phase, subjects will enter a Follow-Up Visit to evaluate safety parameters.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Subjects With Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs)Up to 12 months

TEAEs will be assessed starting following the first dose of study drug, and ending with the Follow-Up Visit or Early Termination Visit.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change From Baseline in CGI-SUp to 12 months

The CGI-S is a clinician-rated scale that evaluates the severity of psychopathology (ADHD symptoms in this study) on a scale from 1 (not at all ill) to 7 (among the most severely ill).

Change From Baseline in Children's Sleep Habits QuestionnaireUp to 12 months

The modified, abbreviated Children's Sleep Habits Questionnaire (CSHQ) will be used to assess the sleep behavior. The CSHQ is a retrospective, 33-item parent questionnaire to examine sleep behavior in small children. Items are rated on a 3-point scale of "Usually", "Sometimes" and "Rarely" for occurrences in a number of key sleep domains: bedtime resistance, sleep onset delay, sleep duration, sleep anxiety, night wakings, parasomnias, sleep disordered breathing, and daytime sleepiness. Scores range from 33-99, with higher scores represent more disturbed sleep. Scores were obtained during a clinician-directed interview with the parent/guardian/caregiver.

Change From Baseline in ADHD-RS-5 Total ScoreUp to 12 months

The clinician-administered ADHD-RS-5 is an 18-item scale that rates ADHD symptoms on a 4-point scale. Each item is scored using a combination of severity and frequency ratings from a range of 0 (reflecting no symptoms or a frequency of never or rarely) to 3 (reflecting severe symptoms or a frequency of very often), so that the total ADHD-RS-5 scores range from 0 to 54. The 18 items can be divided into two 9-item subscales: One for hyperactivity/impulsivity and the other for inattentiveness.
