Active clinical trials for "Attention Deficit Disorder with Hyperactivity"

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, effectiveness, and tolerability of atomoxetine and OROS methylphenidate, taken together, in the treatment of ADHD in children and adolescents ages 6-17.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether PF-03654746 is effective in the treatment of Adult Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). This will be a randomized, double-blind, crossover study in which adults with ADHD will receive 3 weeks of treatment with PF-03654746, either a low dose (1 mg), or flexible dose (0.50 mg titrated up to 2 mg), and 3 weeks of placebo. A washout period will separate the 2 treatment periods. Participants will be required to washout of prior ADHD medication before entering the study. Participants will be required to come to the site for 10 visits over approximately a 10-week period.

The purpose of this study is to test if the investigational medication ABT-089 is a safe and effective treatment for children with Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder or ADHD.

This study will evaluate the effect of atomoxetine in treating Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) symptoms in children and adolescents with ADHD and comorbid reading disability (dyslexia)

Investigation of efficacy and tolerability of extended-release MPD in adults with ADHD, compared with a placebo, and to acquire knowledge through long-term observation of adults

The study will evaluate the effectiveness of the nonstimulant medication lobeline in improving symptoms of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder in adults.

A 3-way cross-over trial of two weeks of treatment with three drug conditions. AZD3480 will be given in doses of (A) 5mg/day, (B) 50 mg/day and (C) placebo to 24 non-smoking adults with DSM-IV confirmed ADHD. Three week washout between each treatment period. CYP2D6 genotyping will be completed at screening and slow metabolisers will be excluded from participation in this study. Cognitive, ADHD symptom, safety and pharmacokinetic (PK) assessments will be made during each treatment period. Safety and tolerability assessments will be a major component of the trial and all serious adverse events (SAE) will be immediately (within 24 hours) reported to both Targacept and to AstraZenca.

The first phase was a double-blind crossover design of methylphenidate in the treatment of adult ADHD. The second phase consisted of an open-label extension trial of methylphenidate in adult ADHD. It was hypothesized that methylphenidate would prove more effective than placebo in treating ADHD symptoms during the first phase. It was also hypothesized that methylphenidate responders from the double-blind trial would continue to benefit from treatment in the second phase. Improvement would include both ADHD symptoms and social adjustment.

To evaluate the efficacy of LDX compared to placebo in adults with ADHD in the adult workplace environment (AWE) setting

Attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a chronic neurobehavioural disorder often diagnosed in childhood years. Complementary/alternative treatments including natural health products (NHPs) are used by children with ADHD despite limited information on their safety or usefulness. Some evidence suggests children with ADHD have a greater need for zinc, magnesium, vitamin B6 and vitamin C. This study will supplement a small number of children diagnosed with ADHD with therapeutic levels of these nutrients over 10 weeks to get a better understanding of the safety and possible benefit of using these nutrients to treat symptoms associated with ADHD.
