|---|---|---|---|
| Primary | Evaluate the change in measures of expressive language | Screening, Week 12, Week 24 | Mullen Scales of Early Learning: a scale of cognitive abilities across the following domains: gross motor (not a core subscale), visual reception, fine motor, expressive language, and receptive language. Total change in expressive language ability will be measured by the change in the expressive language raw score. The expressive language domain is a 28-item scale with a raw score range of 0-50. Changes in expressive language raw scores will be reported. A higher raw score indicates a higher level of language ability. |
| Secondary | Evaluate the change in measures of receptive language | Screening, Week 12, Week 24 | Mullen Scales of Early Learning: a scale of cognitive abilities across the following domains: gross motor (not a core subscale), visual reception, fine motor, expressive language, and receptive language. Total change in receptive language ability will be measured by the change in the receptive language raw and t score. The receptive language domain is a 33-item scale with a raw score range of 0-48 and a t score range of 20-80. T scores are calculated from the raw score and based on age norms. Changes in receptive language raw and t scores will be reported. A higher raw and t score indicates a higher level of language ability. In addition, we will analyze change in expressive language t-score. |
| Secondary | Evaluate the safety and tolerability of L-leucovorin calcium in young children with ASD | Screening, Baseline, Week 2, Week 4, Week 6, Week 8, Week 10, Week 12, Week 16, Week 20, Week 24 | Modified Dosage Record and Treatment Emergent Symptoms: treating clinician will perform a review of medical and behavioral history at each visit to assess incidence of treatment-emergent adverse events. The treating clinician will use the scale to record presence and intensity of adverse effects. Intensity is rated on a scale of 0 (Not present) to 3 (Severe). The treating clinician will also judge the adverse effects' relatedness to treatment. Relatedness is rated on a scale of 1 (None) to 4 (Defined). The treating clinician will denote action taken. Action taken is rated on a scale of 0 (None) to 5 (Discontinue Treatment). No total score is calculated. However, higher ratings on any individual item indicate greater severity of adverse effects. |
| Secondary | Evaluate the safety of L-leucovorin calcium in young children with ASD | Screening, Week 12, Week 24 | Routine comprehensive blood panels will be collected to determine whether treatment-emergent basic blood chemistry is altered. Presence of any changes during the course of study enrollment will be evaluated by the treating physician and determined clinically significant or not clinically significant. If determined by the treating physician, a change will be considered an adverse event. |
| Secondary | Evaluate the safety of L-leucovorin calcium in young children with ASD on antiepileptic drugs | Screening, Week 12, Week 24 | For children using antiepileptic drugs, the level of that drug will be measured. If determined by the treating physician, a change will be considered an adverse event. |
| Secondary | Evaluate the overall change in core autism symptoms of social communication | Screening, Week 12, Week 24 | Brief Observation of Social Communication Change: a 16-item scale that rates social interactions between children with ASD and their interactive rater. Each item is rated on a scale of 0-5, wherein 0 indicates the least severe behavior and 5 indicates the most severe behavior. A higher score is indicative of more severe social communication deficits. Because this evaluation is not valid with PPE it will not be performed during evaluation when PPE is required |
| Secondary | Evaluate the change in stereotypical autism symptoms | Screening, Week 6, Week 12, Week 24 | Aberrant Behavior Checklist-2: a 58-item parent-reported measure of stereotypical autism behaviors with ratings in the following domains: irritability, social withdrawal, stereotypic behavior, hyperactivity, and inappropriate speech. Each item is rated from 0 (Not a Problem) to 3 (Severe Problem). The raw score will be reported. The total raw score is the sum of the domain raw scores. A higher raw score in any of the domains indicates more severe problems in that domain; a higher total raw score indicates more severity of stereotypical autism symptoms overall. |
| Secondary | Evaluate the change in social withdrawal autism symptoms | Screening, Week 6, Week 12, Week 24 | Aberrant Behavior Checklist-2: a 58-item parent-reported measure of stereotypical autism behaviors with ratings in the following domains: irritability, social withdrawal, stereotypic behavior, hyperactivity, and inappropriate speech. Each item is rated from 0 (Not a Problem) to 3 (Severe Problem). The raw score will be reported. The total raw score is the sum of the domain raw scores. A higher raw score in any of the domains indicates more severe problems in that domain; a higher total raw score indicates more severity of stereotypical autism symptoms overall. |
| Secondary | Evaluate the change in effects of autism symptoms most problematic to family members | Screening, Week 6, Week 12, Week 24 | Parent Target Problems: a parent-nominated list of 2 most problematic core autism symptoms. Responses are documented in a brief narrative and detail frequency, constancy, intensity, and impact of behavior on the family. Subjective reports of frequency, constancy, intensity, and impact on family will be rated by a blinded statistician at the conclusion of the study. Higher scores indicate more severe impact on family. |
| Secondary | Evaluate change in overall autism severity | Baseline, Week 6, Week 12, Week 24 | Clinical Global Impression Scale: The Clinical Global Impression Scale-Severity is a 7-point measure of overall symptom severity, ranging from 1 (Normal) to 7 (Extreme), with a raw score range of 1-7. The raw score will be reported. The Clinical Global Impression Scale-Improvement is a measure in change of symptom severity, ranging from 1 (Very Much Improved) to 7 (Very Much Worse). A Score of 4 indicates no change in symptom severity. |
| Secondary | Evaluate change in autism severity of specific symptoms | Baseline, Week 6, Week 12, Week 24 | Ohio State University Clinical Impressions Scale: a clinical rating of severity and improvement of 10 autism domains: social interaction, aberrant/abnormal behavior, repetitive/ritualistic behavior, verbal communication, non-verbal communication, hyperactivity/inattention, anxiety/fears, sensory sensitivities, restricted/narrow interests, autism. Severity will be measured at baseline. Each item is rated from 1 (Normal) to 7 (Among the most severe) with a raw score range of 10-70. The raw score will be reported. Higher scores indicate more severe impairment. At the following time points, improvement will be measured. Each item is rated from 1 (Very much improved) to 7 (Very much worse) with a raw score range of 10-70. The raw score will be reported. Higher scores indicate more severe impairment. |
| Secondary | Evaluate the change in overall cognitive ability | Baseline, Week 12, Week 24 | Mullen Scales of Early Learning: a scale of cognitive abilities across core domains: visual reception, fine motor, expressive language, receptive language. Expressive language domain: 28-item scale with a raw score range of 0-50, t score range of 20-80. Receptive language domain: 33-item scale with a raw score range of 0-48, t score range of 20-80. Visual reception domain: 33-item scale with a raw score range of 0-50, t score range of 20-80. Fine motor domain: 33-item scale with a raw score range of 0-50, t score range of 20-80. Change in domain ability will be measured by the change in domain t score. T scores are calculated from raw scores and based on age norms. A higher domain t score indicates a higher level of ability in that domain. Domain t scores will be used to get a standard composite score. Change in cognition will be measured by change in the Early Learning Composite standardized Scaled score. A higher composite score indicates higher overall cognitive ability. |
| Secondary | Evaluate the change in adaptive functioning | Baseline, Week 12, Week 24 | Vineland Adaptive Behavior Scale-II Domain LevelI: a scale to assess adaptive behavior in children with developmental/intellectual disabilities. This is a 135-item parent-reported measure with ratings in the following domains: communication, daily living skills, and socialization. The frequency of each item is scaled from 0 (Never) to 2 (Usually). For each domain, there are 45 items with a maximum score of 90. Change in each domain will be measured by the change in standard score. Standard scores are calculated from the raw scores and based on age norms. A higher standard score in any domain indicates a higher level of adaptive behavior in that domain. Domain standard scores will be used to get a standard composite score. Change in adaptive behavior will be measured by the change in the standard score. A higher composite score indicates higher overall adaptive behavior ability. |
| Secondary | Evaluate the change in social withdrawal autism symptoms | Baseline, Week 6, Week 12, Week 24 | Social Responsiveness Scale Preschool Version. The Social Responsiveness Scale is a quantitative scale that measures severity and type of social impairments that characterize ASD. It is a standard measure in ASD clinical trials. We will use the preschool version to match the age range of our study. |
| Other | Test if biomarkers (FRAAs) predict clinical response to L-leucovorin | Screening | FRAA titers (described above) will be measured and analyzed as a predictive variable in treatment outcomes. |
| Other | Test if biomarkers (single nucleotide polymorphisms) predict clinical response to L-leucovorin | Screening, Week 12 | Saliva will be collected to determine presence of the following single nucleotide polymorphisms: MTR, MTHFR6, DHFR, GCH1, MTHFR12, RFC, FOLH, COMT. Presence or absence of these genetic polymorphisms will be analyzed to assess correlation with response to L-leucovorin treatment. |
| Other | Combine presence of FRAA titers and single nucleotide polymorphisms (above) into a predicting equation that will evaluate the probability of positive response to L-leucovorin treatment. | Up to 1 year after study completion | A combination of FRAA titers and single nucleotide polymorphisms will be analyzed along with outcome data to predict response to L-leucovorin. Presence or absence of one or both of these biomarkers will be analyzed to assess how these biomarkers correlate with treatment outcome (i.e. whether the treatment was effective). |
