Active clinical trials for "Attention Deficit Disorder with Hyperactivity"

Comorbidities, including sleep problems, are common in adult Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). Treatment of choice for insomnia is cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT-i), but evidence is lacking for CBT-i in patients with ADHD and sleep problems. The purpose of this study was to investigate if patients at a specialist clinic for ADHD benefit from a group delivered CBT-i treatment; whether insomnia severity improves following this treatment. This pragmatic within-group pilot study with a pre to post and three-month follow-up design was set at a specialist psychiatric out-patient clinic for adult ADHD. As an adjunct to care-as-usual at the clinic, a CBT-i-based group treatment targeting sleep problems prevalent in the ADHD-population, designed for patients with executive difficulties, was offered as 10 weekly 90-minute group sessions and scheduled telephone support. All outcome measures were subjectively reported by participants. Data analyzed with dependent t-tests according to intent-to-treat.

With the pharmacokinetics (PK) of centanafadine currently being evaluated in adults. The PK of extended-release centanafadine may differ in children compared to adults due to physiological differences in the gastrointestinal tract. The information in this trial will support pediatric dose selection in future trials.

Patients on chronic stimulant therapy for the treatment of Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) who are undergoing an outpatient surgical or diagnostic procedure will be randomized to one of two groups: stimulant medication administered on the day of surgery or stimulant medication withheld on the day of surgery. The choice of anesthetic pharmacology will be at the discretion of the attending anesthesiologist, but the endpoint will be a bispectral index (BIS) between 40 and 60 to ensure adequate and similar depth of anesthesia. Blood pressure, heart rate and use of vasopressors or anticholinergics will be recorded and the incidence of hypotension, bradycardia, or administration of medications will be compared between the two groups.

The purpose of this study is to demonstrate that atomoxetine is superior to other early standard therapy (any treatment that investigator considers is appropriate to initiate for the treatment of Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder [ADHD]) on the long term functioning in approximately 400 children and adolescents with ADHD. Patients will be pharmacological naïve prior to entry into the study.

To demonstrate the bioequivalence of 12.5 milliliters (mL) of atomoxetine oral solution (4 milligrams per milliliter [mg/mL]) compared with 2 capsules of atomoxetine (25 mg per capsule) in healthy adult male Japanese subjects.

This pilot intervention study will test the feasibility and acceptability and explore the outcomes of an urban, primary care-based intervention to measure families' preferences and goals for Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) treatment and structure clinical care to reach these goals.

Open-label trial of Atomoxetine to Evaluate Academic Outcome in Children Ages 8-11 years with Attention- Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder

Double blinded clinical trial placebo controlled in 153 children (planned enrollment) with recent diagnosis of ADHD. Patients will be randomized to atomoxetine or placebo arm (2:1). The double blinded period will last 12 weeks and the treatment open phase will last up to 1 year, and atomoxetine treatment will be administered. A gatekeeper strategy will be employed for sequentially testing the secondary objectives.

The Mindful Parenting and Parent Training Study will be investigating the combination of Bögels and Restifo's (2014) Mindful Parenting Program and Chorpita and Weisz's (2009) Modular Approach to Therapy for Children with Anxiety, Depression, Trauma, or Conduct Problems (MATCH) Program, specifically the BPT module. The Mindful Parenting Program is an adaptation for parents of the Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy, and the Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction program; the program will consist of 7-weekly 2.5-hour parent group sessions. Following the completion of the Mindful Parenting group sessions, half of the participants will be randomly selected to receive individually-implemented MATCH BPT sessions, which will consist of 8-12 weekly (depending on how long it takes for individual parents and their assigned trainer to get through the material), 1.5-hour sessions. The other half of families will have the opportunity to also receive the MATCH BPT program following the completion of data collection. Both evaluation and treatment services will be offered at no cost to study participants. Parents, children, and teachers will also be offered monetary incentive to thank them for their time and effort completing study related assessments throughout the course of the study to determine if the combination of the Mindful Parenting Program with BPT improves functioning in children with disruptive behavioral problems, as well as the parent-child relationship and the parent's acquisition and enactment of the skills they learn in BPT.

Feasibility study of Central Executive Training (CET) for ADHD. The goal of the current project is to develop and assess the feasibility, acceptability, engagement, and usability of a novel, central executive (CE) working memory training intervention.
