Improvement in Attention and Hyperactive-Impulsive Behavior With
DYANAVEL® XR (amphetamine) Oral Suspension vs Placebo1
Primary endpoint: Significant improvement in SKAMP-combined score at 4 hours postdose vs placebo (P<0.0001)*1
Secondary endpoint: Significant improvement from predose SKAMP-combined scores at each timepoint measured postdose (1, 2, 6, 8, 10, 12 & 13 hrs) vs placebo (P<0.0001 for each) *1
Study Design: This dose-optimized, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled laboratory classroom study included 99 children aged 6 to 12 years who met DSM-IV-TR criteria for ADHD. In the 5 week open-label dose-optimization period, patients received a starting dose of 2.5 or 5mg of DYANAVEL XR taken once daily in the morning. The dose was titrated by 2.5mg to 10mg increments every 4 to 7 days until an optimal dose or the maximum daily dose of 20mg/day was reached. Patients who achieved an optimal dose during the dose optimization period entered the double blind portion of the study where they were randomized to either DYANAVEL XR at their optimal dose or placebo once daily for one week. Efficacy was assessed on the final day of the double-blind phase, by teachers and raters using the SKAMP rating scale. The primary endpoint was the change from predose in the model-adjusted average of SKAMP-combined score at 4 hours postdose. Secondary endpoints looked at change from predose SKAMP-combined scores at 1, 2, 6, 8, 10, 12 and 13 hours postdose.
