Summary
A Phase 3, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multi-center, fixed-dose, parallel-group efficacy and safety study in a pediatric population (6-17) with Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) using CTx-1301 (d-MPH). The study will be comprised of a screening period, a double-blind randomized phase, and a safety follow-up visit.
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria
- Male or female subjects between 6 and 17 years of age (inclusive) at the time of Randomization (Visit 2). Subjects who are expected to turn 18 years of age during the trial will not be allowed.
- Subject must have a body weight between the 5th and 95th percentile (≥5th percentile and ≤95th percentile) for their respective age and sex.
- Subject is unsatisfied with his/her current pharmacological therapy for treatment of ADHD or not currently receiving pharmacological therapy for ADHD. Inclusion of subjects who are naïve to pharmacological therapy for ADHD is permitted.
- Subjects of child-bearing potential at screening or that become of child-bearing potential during the study must agree to remain abstinent or agree to use a highly effective, medically acceptable form of birth control for the time of written assent and for at least 30 days after the last dose of study drug has been taken (females). Male subjects with female partners must agree at Screening to remain abstinent or agree to use an effective and medically acceptable form of birth control from Screening to 90 days after the last dose of study drug. Child-bearing potential is defined as any female who has had their first period or is 12 years or older (or will be 12 while in the study).
- Subject must be in general good health defined as absence of any clinically relevant abnormalities as determined by the Investigator based on physical and neurological examinations, vital signs, ECGs (QTc less than or equal to 460 milliseconds), medical history, and laboratory values (hematology, chemistry, serology, TSH, or urinalysis) at Screening. If any of the exams or values are not within the laboratory reference range, the Investigator must review range and determine if clinically relevant. If clinically relevant, the subject is not eligible for the study.
- Subject's intellectual function is at an age-appropriate level, as deemed by the Investigator.
- Subject must meet Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders - Fifth Edition (DSM-5) criteria for the primary diagnosis of ADHD or any of the three presentations (combined, inattentive, or hyperactive/impulsive presentation) upon clinical evaluation and confirmed by the MINI International Neuropsychiatric Interview of Children and Adolescents (MINI-KID). The MINI should also be used to evaluate any other psychotic disorders.
- Subject must score 28 or higher on the ADHD-RS-5 scale at the Baseline visit (Visit 2).
- Subject must have a score of 4 (moderately ill) or higher on the clinician-administrated Clinical Global Impressions-Severity (CGI-S) scale at Baseline (Visit 2).
- Subject must be able and willing to wash out of stimulant ADHD medications (except study drug as indicated per protocol), including herbal medication, from 5 days prior to the start of the randomized phase (Visit 2) and for the duration of the entire study, defined as completion of the safety follow-up visit (approximately 1.25 months, excluding screening). Additionally, subject must be able and willing to wash out from non-stimulant ADHD medications 21 days prior to the start of the randomized phase (Visit 2) and for the duration of the entire study (approximately 1.25 months, excluding screening), defined as completion of the safety follow-up visit.
- Subject and parent/legal guardian, and/or caregiver (if applicable) must be able to read, write, speak, and understand English and be able to communicate with the Investigator and study coordinator in a satisfactory fashion and complete any study-related materials. Subject and parent/legal guardian, and/or caregiver (if applicable) must plan to be available for the entire duration of the study.
- One or more of the parents/legal guardians/caregivers of the subject must voluntarily give written permission for him/her to participate in the study.
- Subject must provide written assent prior to study participation.
- Subject, subject's parent/legal guardia
