ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryChange From Baseline to 6 Month Endpoint in Child Health and Illness Profile - Child Edition, Parent Report Form (CHIP-CE PRF), Achievement DomainBaseline, 6 months
CHIP-CE PRF: parent rated assessment of a child's health status/level of functioning. The achievement domain describes developmentally appropriate role functioning in school and with peers. The majority of items assess frequency of activities or feelings using a 5-point response format (1=never, 5=always). Standard scores (T-scores) were established, with all domains and subdomains having a mean score of 50 and standard deviation of 10. Normative range is 40 to 60. Higher scores indicate better health and lower scores indicate worse health.
SecondaryChange From Baseline to 4 Month and 12 Month Endpoints in CHIP-CE PRF, Achievement DomainBaseline, 4 months, 12 months
CHIP-CE PRF: parent rated assessment of a child's health status/level of functioning. The achievement domain describes developmentally appropriate role functioning in school and with peers. The majority of items assess frequency of activities or feelings using a 5-point response format (1=never, 5=always). Standard scores (T-scores) were established, with all domains and subdomains having a mean score of 50 and standard deviation of 10. Normative range is 40 to 60. Higher scores indicate better health and lower scores indicate worse health.
SecondaryChange From Baseline to 4 Month, 6 Month, and 12 Month Endpoints in the CHIP-CE PRF Domain Scores (Satisfaction, Comfort, Resilience and Risk Avoidance)Baseline, 4 months, 6 months, 12 months
CHIP-CE PRF: parent rated assessment of a child's health status and level of functioning. Domains: Satisfaction, Comfort, Risk Avoidance, Resilience. The majority of items assess frequency of activities or feelings using a 5-point response format (1=never, 5=always). Standard scores (T-scores) were established, with all domains and subdomains having a mean score of 50 and standard deviation of 10. Normative range is 40 to 60. Higher scores indicate better health and lower scores indicate worse health.
SecondaryChange From Baseline to 4 Month, 6 Month, and 12 Month Endpoints in Weiss Functional Impairment Rating Scale-Parent Report (WFIRS-P)Baseline, 4 months, 6 months, 12 months
The 50-item WFIRS-P rates impairment in 6 domains of functioning: home, school, self-concept, social, activities of daily living, and risk taking. Each item is rated by the parent on a 4-point Likert scale from 0 to 3 (0="never or not at all", 1="sometimes or somewhat", 2="often or much", 3="very often or very much"). Average of non-missing values were calculated for each domain as well as the Total, which combined all 6 domains; therefore each scale including total has a range of 0 (best) to 3 (worst).
SecondaryChange From Baseline to 4 Month, 6 Month, and 12 Month Endpoints in Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder Rating Scale - Parent Version: Investigator Adminitered and Scored (ADHD-RS-IV Parent:Inv)Baseline, 4 months, 6 months, 12 months
Measures the 18 symptoms contained in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders Fourth Edition, Text Revision (DSM-IV-TR) 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. Inattention and Hyperactivity-Impulsivity subscales consisted of 9 items each, for total subcale scores ranging from 0 to 27. Higher scores are indicative of more severe symptoms.
SecondaryChange From Baseline to 4 Month, 6 Month, and 12 Month Endpoints in Clinical Global Impression Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder - Severity (CGI-ADHD-S)Baseline, 4 months, 6 months, 12 monthsMeasures severity of the patient's overall severity of ADHD symptoms (1=normal, not at all ill; 7=among the most extremely ill patients).
SecondaryChange From Baseline to 4 Month, 6 Month, and 12 Month Endpoints in the CHIP-CE CRF for Children (6-11 Years)Baseline, 4 months, 6 months, 12 months
CHIP-CE CRF: child rated assessment of their health status and level of functioning. Domains: Achievement, Satisfaction, Comfort, Risk Avoidance, Resilience. The majority of items assess frequency of activities or feelings using a 5-point response format (1=never, 5=always). Standard scores (T-scores) were established, with all domains and subdomains having a mean score of 50 and standard deviation of 10. Normative range is 40 to 60. Higher scores indicate better health and lower scores indicate worse health.
SecondaryChange From Baseline to 4 Month, 6 Month, and 12 Month Endpoints in the CHIP-Adolescent Edition (AE) for Adolescents (>11-17 Years)Baseline, 4 months, 6 months, 12 months
CHIP-AE CRF: adolescent rated assessment of their health status and level of functioning. Domains: Achievement, Satisfaction, Comfort, Risk Avoidance, Resilience. The majority of items assess frequency of activities or feelings using a 5-point response format (1=never, 5=always). Standard scores (T-scores) were established, with all domains and subdomains having a mean score of 50 and standard deviation of 10. Normative range is 40 to 60. Higher scores indicate better health and lower scores indicate worse health.
SecondaryCorrelation Between CHIP-CE Parent Rated and Pooled CHIP-CE Child Rated and CHIP AE Adolescent Rated T-ScoresBaseline, 6 monthsPearson correlation coefficients were calculated on each domain at baseline, Month 6 and Change to Month 6 between parent-rated CHIP and pooled patient-rated (child and adolescent) CHIP.
