研究组 & 干预措施
d-Amphetamine Transdermal patch
The study was conducted in 2 parts: a 5-week, open-label, step-wise Dose Optimization Period and a 2-week, randomized, cross-over Double-Blind Treatment Period.
Subjects who reached the optimal dose by end of dose optimization treatment period were randomized to receive double-blind treatment.
Participants first received study patches everyday for one week, then subjects were crossed-over to receive the placebo treatment.
d-Amphetamine Transdermal System: Patches will be worn for 9 hours every day. After 9 hours the patch will be removed. Every day a new patch will be applied.
干预措施: d-Amphetamine Transdermal Patch (Drug)
Placebo patch
The study was conducted in 2 parts: a 5-week, open-label, step-wise Dose Optimization Period and a 2-week, randomized, cross-over Double-Blind Treatment Period.
Subjects who reached the optimal dose by end of dose optimization treatment period were randomized to receive double-blind treatment.
Participants first received placebo patches everyday for one week, then subjects were crossed-over to receive the study treatment.
Placebo patch: Patches will be worn for 9 hours every day. After 9 hours the patch will be removed. Every day a new patch will be applied.
干预措施: Placebo patch (Drug)
结局指标
主要结局
Mean Swanson, Kotkin, Agler, M-Flynn, and Pelham (SKAMP) Total Score During the Double-Blind Treatment Period
时间窗: Mean SKAMP Total Score of SKAMP Total Scores from 9 different time points including (1, 2, 3, 4.5, 6, 7, 9, 10, 12 hours post-dose)
The SKAMP total score comprises all 13 items. The SKAMP was designed for independent observers to rate 13 items representing 2 factors of classroom behavior: attention (SKAMP-A) and deportment (SKAMP-D), as well as quality of work. Items are specific to place (classroom setting) \& time (during a typical classroom period), \& the scale is used to assess multiple ratings taken within a day. The SKAMP-D subscale evaluates deportment, including interacting with other children, interacting with adults, remaining quiet according to classroom rules, \& staying seated according to classroom rules. The SKAMP-A subscale is a measure of attention \& evaluates getting started on assignments, sticking with tasks, attending to an activity, and making activity transitions. The SKAMP quality of work subscale includes 3 items: completing assigned work, performing work accurately, and being careful and neat while writing or drawing. Scores range from 0-78 with higher scores indicating worse impairment.
次要结局
- Onset of Efficacy Measured by Swanson, Kotkin, Agler, M-Flynn, and Pelham (SKAMP) Total Score(Onset of efficacy defined as the time of the first assessment time showing statistical significance between d-ATS and placebo. 2 hours post-dose in Double-Blind Treatment Period)
- Duration of Effect for d-Amphetamine and Placebo Treatment(Duration of Effect was from onset (2 hours post-dose) and up to 12 hours post-dose (p<0.001))
- Permanent Product Measure of Performance (PERMP) Scores Including PREMP-C and PREMP-A From Different Timepoints Post-dose(1,2, 3, 4.5,6,7,9,10 and 12 hours post-dose from double-blind treatment period)
- Number of Responders Evaluated by Clinical Global Impression (CGI-I) Scale by Treatments From the Double-blind Treatment Period(the double-blind treatment period)
- Change in the Clinician-rated Scale of ADHD Symptoms Based on DSM-IV-TR Criteria (ADHD-RS-IV).(Averaged from week 6 and week 7 results during the Double-Blind Cross-Over treatment period.)
- Conners Parent Rating Scale Revised Short Form (CPRS-R:S) Total Scores From Week 6 and Week 7(Combined analysis by treatment groups from week 6 and week 7 (averaged))
