Registered outcomes5

Each outcome the trial registered, primary first, in ClinicalTrials.gov's words.

ListOutcomeTime frameDescription
PrimaryChange From Baseline in Severity of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity (ADHD) SymptomsWeek 5 (Visit 7)
Change from baseline in severity of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity (ADHD) symptoms, as measured by the adult ADHD Investigator Symptom Rating Scale (AISRS), with a minimum score of 0, and maximum score of 54. Higher scores indicate more severe symptoms, or a worse outcome.
SecondaryChange From Baseline to Visit 7 in AISRS Hyperactive and Inattentive Subscale ScoresUp to 5 weeks
Items are scored as follows: 0 (none), 1 (mild), 2 (moderate), 3 (severe). The maximum total score for the scale is 54 points, with 27 points for each subscale (summed). The total score is the sum of the inattentive and hyperactive-impulsive subscales. Higher values represent more severe hyperactivity and/or inattentiveness.
SecondaryChange in Clinical Global Impression of Severity (CGI-S) Score From BaselineUp to 5 weeks
CGI-Severity (CGI-S): The CGI-Severity (CGI-S) asks the clinician one question: "Considering your total clinical experience with this particular population, how mentally ill is the patient at this time?" which is rated on the following seven-point scale: 1=normal, not at all ill; 2=borderline mentally ill; 3=mildly ill; 4=moderately ill; 5=markedly ill; 6=severely ill; 7=among the most extremely ill patients.
SecondaryChange in Clinical Global Impression of Improvement (CGI-I) Score From BaselineUp to 5 weeks
"Compared to the patient's condition at admission to the project \[prior to medication initiation\], this patient's condition is: 1=very much improved since the initiation of treatment; 2=much improved; 3=minimally improved; 4=no change from baseline (the initiation of treatment); 5=minimally worse; 6= much worse; 7=very much worse since the initiation of treatment."
SecondaryChange in Behavior Rating Inventory of Executive Function-Adult Version (BRIEF-A) Score From BaselineUp to 5 weeks
The Behavior Rating Inventory of Executive Function-Adult Version (BRIEF-A) is a 75-item self-rating scale that assesses overall functioning (GEC) and 9 non-overlapping scales among 2 summary index scales (Metacognition Index \[MI\] and Behavioral Regulation Index \[BRI\]) that assess aspects of executive function and problems with self-regulation from the perspective of the individual. Subjects rate each item on a 3-point scale (1=Never, 2=Sometimes, or 3=Often) based on their experience in past month. The sum of 70 items yields the GEC raw score (range: 70-210), which is converted to a T-score (normative population mean=50 and standard deviation=10; T-score ≥ 65 is considered abnormally elevated). The post-baseline GEC T-score is converted to a change from baseline T-score. A lower change from baseline GEC T-score (\<0) represents a better outcome.
