PDC-1421 Treatment in Adult Patients With ADHD

The ADHD-RS-IV with Adult Prompts is an 18-item scale based on the DSM-IV-TR criteria for ADHD that provides a rating of the severity of symptoms. The adult prompts serve as a guide to explore more fully the extent and severity of ADHD symptoms and create a framework to ascertain impairment. The odd-numbered 9 items assess inattentive symptoms and the even-numbered 9 items assess hyperactive-impulsive symptoms. Scoring is based on a 4-point, yielding a possible total score of 0-54. Likert-type severity scale: 0 = Never or Rarely, 1 = Sometimes, 2 = Often, 3 = Very Often. Clinicians should score the highest score that is generated for the prompts for each item. The ADHD-RS-IV was assessed from Visit 1 to Visit 7 by the investigator.

Clinical Global Impression-Severity (CGI-S) and Clinical Global Impression-Improvement (CGI-I) score of 2 or lower. The CGI-S is rated on a 7-point scale, with the severity of illness scale using a range of responses from 1 (normal) through to 7 (amongst the most severely ill patients). CGI-I scores range from 1 (very much improved) through to 7 (very much worse).

The K-SCT rating scale queries 15 Sluggish Cognitive Tempo symptoms rated from 0 = Never or Rarely, 1 = Sometimes, 2 = Often, 3 = Very Often, grouped into latent factors of daydreaming, working memory problems, and subjective sleepiness/tiredness. The range for the Total Score is 0-45. The higher values represent a worse outcome for the total score and subscore.

Conners' Adult Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder Rating Scale-Self Report: Short Version (CAARS-S:S) consists of 26 items rated from 0=not at all, never to 3=very much, very frequently. Four subscales each composed of 5 items (A: inattention/memory problems; B: hyperactivity/restlessness; C: impulsivity/emotional lability; and D: problems with self-concept) as well as a 12-item ADHD index can be computed. The raw scores were converted into standard T-scores. The higher T-scores represent a better or worse outcome. A T-score is a standard score with a mean of 50 and a standard deviation of 10 in all samples and across all scales
