What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. The neuropsychological status in five domains as measured by the change in the NEPSY from baseline to 6 months post-initiation of atomoxetine treatment in children ages 6 to 10.5 diagnosed with ADHD.

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Assess changes in executive function and attention;Compare changes in neuropsychological status in a normal control group, gender and age matched to atomoxetine-treated patients at baseline and 6 months

  2. Efficacy of atomoxetine after 2 and 6 months, or endpoint from baseline;Assess the correlation of change from baseline to 6 months, or at study discontinuation, in ADHD symptoms with change from baseline in the neuropsychological functioning

  3. Assess the relationships of change from baseline to approximately 2 and 6 months, or endpoint in the core symptoms of ADHD with the changes in functional outcomes as assessed by the WFIRS-P

  4. Examine the French language version of the WFIRS-P questionnaire's psychometric properties including internal consistency and responsiveness to change.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The neuropsychological status in five domains as measured by the change in the NEPSY from baseline to 6 months post-initiation of atomoxetine treatment in children ages 6 to 10.5 diagnosed with ADHD.. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00216918, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
