SecondaryAttention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder Rating Scale-IV-Parent Version:Investigator Administered and Scored (ADHDRS-IV-Parent:Inv) Total Score Change From Week 6 to Week 12week 6 and week 12
Measures the 18 symptoms contained in the DSM-IV diagnosis of Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder. Individual item scores range from 0 (none/never or rarely) to 3 (severe/very often). Total scores range from 0 to 54.
SecondaryClinical Global Impressions- Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder-Severity Changes From Baseline to Visit 7 (12 Weeks)Baseline and 12 weeksMeasures severity of the patient's overall severity of ADHD symptoms (1=normal, not at all ill; 7=among the most extremely ill patients).
SecondaryClinical Global Impressions- Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder-Severity Change From Baseline to Endpoint (Visit 18) of the Open-Label Extension (107 Weeks)Baseline and Open-Label Endpoint (107 weeks)Measures severity of the patient's overall severity of ADHD symptoms (1=normal, not at all ill; 7=among the most extremely ill patients).
SecondaryConners' Parent Rating Scale-Revised: Short Form (CPRS-R:S) Total Score Changes From Baseline to Endpoint (Week 12)Baseline and Week 12
The CPRS-R:S has 27 items to be completed by the parent to assess behavioral problems related to ADHD. Individual item scores range from 0 (not at all true/never/seldom: lowest impairment) to 3 (very much true/very often/very frequent: highest impairment). The total score is calculated as the sum of all items. Total scores range from 0 to 81.
SecondaryChild Health and Illness Profile (CHIP) Change From Baseline to Endpoint (12 Weeks)Baseline to 12 weeks
Parent-rated assessment of a child's health status and level of functioning. It consists of 76 items. The majority of items assess frequency of activities or feelings using a five-point response format (for example, 'how good is your child at making friends?' 1=never, 5=always). Standard scores (t-value) were established, with all domains and subdomains having a mean score of 50 and standard deviation of 10. Standard scores are expressed in standard deviation units. T-score=\[(Score-4.2382)\*10/0.32835\]+50. Higher scores mean improvement.
SecondaryKiddie Schedule for Affective Disorders and Schizophrenia for School Aged Children-Present and Lifetime Version (K-SADS-PL)Baseline
The K-SADS-PL is a semi-structured interview schedule for assessing psychiatric disorders in children and adolescents. It is used to assess the status of 32 DSM-IV child and adolescent psychiatric diagnosis.
