Trial Outcomes & Findings for Efficacy of Atomoxetine on Psychosocial Function of Children and Adolescents With Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) (NCT NCT00320528)

NCT ID: NCT00320528

Last Updated: 2010-01-06

Results Overview

Parent-rated assessment of a child's health status and level of functioning. It consists of 76 items. The majority of items assess frequency of activities or feelings using a five-point response format (for example, 'how good is your child at making friends?' 1=never, 5=always). Standard scores (t-value) were established, with all domains and subdomains having a mean score of 50 and standard deviation of 10. Standard scores are expressed in standard deviation units. Achievement Domain Range = -3.1 to 67.7. Higher scores mean greater health or level of functioning in achievement.

Timeframe: Baseline, 12 Weeks

Population: Number of patients with baseline and at least one nonmissing post-baseline measurement.

Parent-rated assessment of a child's health status and level of functioning. It consists of 76 items. The majority of items assess frequency of activities or feelings using a five-point response format (for example, 'how good is your child at making friends?' 1=never, 5=always). Standard scores (t-value) were established, with all domains and subdomains having a mean score of 50 and standard deviation of 10. Standard scores are expressed in standard deviation units. Achievement Domain Range = -3.1 to 67.7. Higher scores mean greater health or level of functioning in achievement.

Items from the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders Fourth Edition (DSM-IV) criteria for ADHD are included for the two subsets of symptoms: inattention (items #1-#9: total score=0-27) and hyperactivity/impulsivity (items #11-#19: total score=0-27). The SNAP-IV is based on a 0 (not at all) to 3 (very much) rating scale. Total combined type (inattention plus hyperactivity/impulsivity) subscale scores range from 0 to 54.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline, 12 Weeks

Population: Number of patients with baseline and at least one nonmissing post-baseline measurement.

The Pediatric Anxiety Rating Scale (PARS) is used to rate the severity of anxiety in children and adolescents, ages 6 to 17 years. The total score for the PARS is derived by summing 5 of the 7 severity/impairment/interference items (2,3,5,6,7). The total score ranges from 0 (none) to 25 (extreme severity). Items 1 (overall number of anxiety symptoms) and 4 (overall severity of physical symptoms) are not included in the total score calculation.

Measures presence and severity of depression. Consists of 17 items scored on a 1-5 or 1-7 scale. A rating of 1 indicates normal, thus the minimum score is 17. The maximum score is 113. In general, scores below 20 indicate an absence of depression; scores of 20 or 30 indicate borderline depression; scores of 40 to 60 indicate moderate depression.
