Crossover Study to Evaluate the Efficacy of AR11 in Pediatric Patients With ADHD in a Laboratory Classroom Setting

Completed · Phase 4 · Has a placebo group

Conditions studied: Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)

In brief

This is a dose-optimized, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled crossover study in approximately 100 pediatric patients (aged 6 to 12 years) with ADHD. Eligible patients will enroll to take open-label AR11 BID and undergo dose optimization activities for 8 weeks. Patients who achieve a stable dose during the dose optimization period will continue participation and will be randomized to take double-blind medication (AR11 or placebo) orally twice daily for 1 week. At the end of each double-blind treatment period, patients will be evaluated for ADHD symptoms in a laboratory classroom setting utilizing SKAMP and PERMP assessments.
