Trial Outcomes & Findings for Sleep and Tolerability Study: Comparing the Effects of Adderall XR and Focalin XR (NCT NCT00393042)

NCT ID: NCT00393042

Last Updated: 2017-04-19

Results Overview

Actigraphs (AW64 series) were worn each night and were used to assess participant's sleep patterns in their natural home environment. These computerized wristwatch-like devices collect data generated by movements. They are minimally invasive and allow sleep to be recorded reliably without interfering with the family's routine. One-minute epochs were used to analyze actigraphic sleep sata. Bedtimes and wake times were reported for each participant using sleep logs, and these times were used as the start and end times for the analyses. For each 1-min epoch, the total sum of activity counts were computed. If they exceeded a threshold (threshold sensitivity value = mean score in active period/45), then the epoch was considered waking. If it fell below that threshold, then it was considered sleep. The data for Adderall XR and Focalin XR was combined to look at the cumulative effects that medication has on sleep.

Participant Flow

Eligible participants were recruited from the investigators' practices, clinic referrals, and radio advertisements. Participants were enrolled between January 2007 and January 2009.

7 participants didn't want to participate after screening, 1 didn't meet criteria, 1 ADHD was not the primary condition, 1 showed an abnormal lab/physical/EKG, 1 was unable to swallow pills, 1 had an exclusionary medical condition, 1 was removed due to protocol violations.

Overall Study
n=64 Participants
Participants either Adderall XR or Focalin XR for four weeks (3 dose levels and placebo) followed by four weeks (3 dose levels and placebo) of the opposite medication they received the first four weeks. Baseline Measures are based off all participants that were randomized regardless of the order they received the medication. Since we were interested in evaluating efficacy and adverse events at all dose conditions, participants were included in analysis if they received at least 2 weeks of study drug to insure that all participants had been exposed to at least one week of active drug

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 8-10 weeks

Population: Subjects with complete and valid actigraphy (n = 37) and sleep diaries were used to calculate sleep onset latency and sleep duration.

Actigraphs (AW64 series) were worn each night and were used to assess participant's sleep patterns in their natural home environment. These computerized wristwatch-like devices collect data generated by movements. They are minimally invasive and allow sleep to be recorded reliably without interfering with the family's routine. One-minute epochs were used to analyze actigraphic sleep sata. Bedtimes and wake times were reported for each participant using sleep logs, and these times were used as the start and end times for the analyses. For each 1-min epoch, the total sum of activity counts were computed.

The data for Adderall XR and Focalin XR was combined to look at the cumulative effects that medication has on sleep.

Timeframe: completed weekly over 8-10 weeks

Measures the severity of Total ADHD symptoms, Inattention and Hyperactivity/Impulsive symptoms. The Inattention and Hyperactivity/Impulsive symptoms can range from 0 to 27 each, with a higher score reflecting more severe ADHD symptoms. The total score is calculated by summing the inattention and Hyperactivity/Impulsive subscales. The total score can range from 0 to 54 with a higher score reflecting more severe ADHD symptoms.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: 8-10 weeks

Population: The number of participants analyzed differs from the participant flow because some participants refused to provide a DNA sample for analysis or some participants did not have the allele type that was being observed. Of those that provided a DNA sample, 6 had the 9/9 allele on the DAT 1 gene, 15 had the 9/10 allele and 30 had the 10/10 allele.

Three variations of the DAT 1 gene were observed, the 9/9 allele, the 9/10 allele and the 10/10 allele. The ADHD Rating Scale (ADHD-RS) and Clinical Global Impressions - Severity (CGI-S) measures were used to evaluate how the DAT 1 gene allele type altered the efficacy of the medication. The DAT 1 genotype did not predict differential response to Focalin XR or Adderall XR so the dose levels of each drug was combined to examine how the genotype interacted with the dose level. The ADHD-RS evaluates the severity of the participant's ADHD symptoms and includes two subscales: Inattention and Hyperactivity/Impulsivity. Both subscale scores range from 0 to 27 with a higher score representing more severe symptoms. The subscales are summed to calculate the total score which can range from 0 to 54. The CGI-S scale summarizes the clinician's impression of the participant's symptom severity and ranges from 1-7 with 1 representing normal (not at all ill) and 7 representing extremely ill.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: 8-10 weeks

Population: The number of participants analyzed differs from the participant flow in the Focalin XR groups because the CGI-S was not completed for every participant. The same is true for the Adderall XR - 25/30mg group.

The CGI-S scale summarizes the clinician's impression of the participant's symptom severity and ranges from 1-7 with 1 representing normal (not at all ill) and 7 representing extremely ill.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: 8-10 weeks

Population: The number of participants analyzed differs from the participant flow in all of the groups besides the Adderall XR - 10mg group because the WFIRS was not completed for every participant.

The WFIRS consists of 50 questions where respondents are asked to rate their child's functional impairment. The items of the WFIRS are scored on a four point Likert-type rating scale: 0 (never or not at all), 1 (sometimes or somewhat), 2 (often or much) or 3 (very often or very much) and aggregated to produce six domain scores: Family (ranges between 0-24), Learning or School (ranges between 0-33), Self-Concept (ranges between 0-15), Social Activities (ranges between 0-27), Life Skills (ranges between 0-36), and Risky Activities (ranges between 0-42). The subscales are scored by summing the responses in the subsection. The Total score is the sum of all the responses and it ranges between 0-150. The higher the score in each of the subscales the more impairment is recorded, this is also true for the total score.
