Trial Outcomes & Findings for Double-blind, Placebo-controlled, Randomised Withdrawal, Extension, Safety and Efficacy Study of LDX in Children and Adolescents Aged 6-17 (NCT NCT00784654)

NCT ID: NCT00784654

Last Updated: 2021-06-09

Results Overview

Treatment failure defined as 50% increase (worsening) in Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder Rating Scale (ADHD-RS-IV) total score and \>= 2 point increase (worsening) in the Clinical Global Impression-Severity of Illness (CGI-S) score observed at any visit during the randomized withdrawal period compared to the respective scores at baseline of randomized withdrawal period. Subjects without an endpoint value were classed as treatment failures.

Lisdexamfetamine Dimesylate (LDX)(Open-label Period)
Consists of at least 26 weeks where subjects are titrated to an optimal dose of LDX (either 30, 50 or 70 mg once-daily orally at approximately 7:00 AM +/- 2 hours) and then maintained on their optimal dose of LDX (either 30, 50 or 70 mg once-daily orally at approximately 7:00 AM +/- 2 hours).
Lisdexamfetamine Dimesylate (LDX)(Randomized Period)
After the Open-label Period, subjects were randomized to receive their optimal dose of LDX at either 30, 50, or 70 mg once-daily orally at approximately 7:00 AM +/- 2 hours for up to 6 weeks.

Clinical Global Impression-Improvement (CGI-I) consists of a 7-point scale ranging from 1 (very much improved) to 7 (very much worse). Improvement is defined as a score of 1 (very much improved) or 2 (much improved) on the scale. Improvement includes CGI-I categories of very much improved and much improved. No improvement includes all other assessed categories.

The CHIP-CE:PRF evaluates health-related quality of life. It is composed of 5 domains (satisfaction, comfort, resilience, avoidance, and achievement) consisting of a total of 76 items. The global score is an average of the scores for the 5 domains. The majority of items assess frequency of events using a 5-point response format. There is no range for a total score. Raw scale scores are used to generate T-scores. Higher scores indicate better health.

C-SSRS is a semi-structured interview that captures the occurence, severity, and frequency of suicide-related thoughts and behaviors during the assessment period. The interview includes definitions and suggested questions to solicit the type of information needed to determine if a suicide-related thought or behaviour occurred. The assessment is done by the nature of the responses, not by a numbered scale.
