Trial Outcomes & Findings for Crossover Study to Evaluate the Efficacy of AR11 in Pediatric Patients With ADHD in a Laboratory Classroom Setting (NCT NCT01986062)

NCT ID: NCT01986062

Last Updated: 2020-07-21

Results Overview

Swanson, Kotkin, Agler, M-Flynn, and Pelham Scale \[SKAMP\]-combined scores measured during Laboratory Classroom Days. The SKAMP scale is a validated subjective measure of ADHD symptoms in a laboratory classroom, comprised of 13 items on which subjects are rated according to a 7 point scale (0=normal to 6=maximal impairment); maximum score 78. The SKAMP-combined score is obtained by summing the rating values for each of the 13 items, whereby the higher the SKAMP score, the greater the impairment.

The SKAMP scale is a validated subjective measure of ADHD symptoms. It is comprised of 13 items (grouped under the subcategories of attention, deportment, quality of work, and compliance) on which subjects are rated according to a 7-point scale (0 = normal to 6 = maximal impairment). The SKAMP-Attention subscale score is comprised of four of the 13 items with a maximum score of 24.

Population: ITT

Permanent Product Measure of Performance (PERMP) assessments measured during Laboratory Classroom Days. The PERMP is an individualized, five-page math exam consisting of 400 problems. Subjects are instructed to complete as many math problems as possible in 10 minutes. Performance is evaluated using the number of problems attempted (maximum score = 400) and the number of problems correct (maximum score = 400).
