E.2 Objective of the trial |
E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial |
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the long-term safety of SPD489 administered as a daily morning dose (30, 50, and 70mg) in the treatment of children and adolescents (6-17 years of age inclusive at the time of consent in this study or a previous SPD489 study (SPD489-317, SPD489-325, or SPD489-326) diagnosed with moderately to severely symptomatic ADHD. |
L’obiettivo primario di questo studio e' quello di valutare la sicurezza a lungo termine di SPD489 somministrato con una dose giornaliera mattutina (30, 50 e 70mg) per il trattamento di bambini e adolescenti (con 6-17 anni d’eta' compiuti al momento del rilascio del consenso a questo studio o a uno studio SPD489 precedente [SPD489-317, SPD489-325, or SPD489-326]) con diagnosi di ADHD da moderatamente a gravemente sintomatica. |
|
E.2.2 | Secondary objectives of the trial |
1. To assess the long-term efficacy of SPD489 using the clinician-administered ADHD-rating scale-IV (ADHD RS IV) total score and hyperactivity/impulsivity and inattentiveness subscale scores.
2. To assess the long-term efficacy of SPD489 using global clinical measures of severity and improvement as measured by the Clinical Global Impressions – Severity of Illness (CGI-S) and Clinical Global Impressions – Global Improvement (CGI-I). |
1. Determinare l’efficacia a lungo termine di SPD489 utilizzando il punteggio totale della Scala IV di Classificazione di ADHD somministrata dal medico (ADHD RS IV) e i punteggi delle sotto-scale iperattivita'/impulsivita' e disattenzione.
2. Accertare l’efficacia a lungo termine di SPD489 utilizzando le misure cliniche globali di gravita' e miglioramento misurate in base a Impressioni Cliniche Globali – Gravita' della Malattia (CGI-S) e Impressioni Cliniche Globali - Miglioramento Globale (CGI-I). |

Comorbid psychiatric diagnoses will be established using the Kiddie–Schedule for Affective Disorders and Schizophrenia for School-age Children–Present and Lifetime–Diagnostic Interview (K SADS-PL) and additional modules if warranted by the results of the initial interview. The K SADS Lifetime module will not be required if <2 months have elapsed since the subject’s last study visit. Participation in behavioural therapy is permitted.

3. Subject experienced any clinically significant AEs in a prior SPD489 study (SPD489-317, SPD489 325, or SPD489 326) that, in the opinion of the Investigator, would preclude further exposure to SPD489.

Per i soggetti che non hanno partecipato a un altro studio SPD489:
6. Il soggetto presenta un risultato urinario farmacologico positivo allo Screening (Visita –1), fatta eccezione per la terapia in corso per ADHD.
