About this trial

This is an interventional treatment trial for Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder focused on measuring ADHD, Glucose Intolerance, Obesity, Vyvanse

Eligibility Criteria

8 Years - 17 Years (Child)All SexesAccepts Healthy Volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • male or female, ages between 8 and 17
  • Body Mass Index > 30
  • fasting blood sugar between 90-100 mg/dl
  • 2 hour post prandial >140 <180 mg/dl
  • meets criteria for a diagnosis of ADHD, any subtype

Exclusion Criteria:

  • known cardiovascular disease or diabetes
  • structural cardiac abnormalities, abnormal ECGs, family history of sudden death
  • positive urine drug screen

Arms of the Study

Arm 1

Arm Type

Active Comparator

Arm Label

Open label Vyvanse

Arm Description

Eligible subjects will be dispensed open label LDX (VyvanseTM). All subjects will start at 20 mg once a day dose and will be titrated up weekly by 10 mg increments up to a maximum dose of 70 mg. If a subject experiences intolerable side effects at a particular dose, a step down to the next tolerated level is allowed.

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Pre and Post Study Fasting Blood Sugar and Two Hour Post Prandial.
The study was terminated due to lack of enrollment therefore outcome measures were not assessed. If completed, the expected outcomes would have shown an improvement of the subject's fasting and 2 hour post prandial glucose values, insulin levels and HbA1c. However, all of the subjects recruited did not have abnormal values to start with. The two subjects who were enrolled were the younger kids to which the entry lab criteria do not apply.
