About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo- and Active-Controlled, Parallel-Group, Multicenter Study of 3 Dosages of JNJ-31001074 in the Treatment of Adult Subjects With Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety/tolerability of 3 different dosages of JNJ-31001074 compared with placebo in adult patients with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).

Read the detailed description

This will be a randomized (study drug assigned by chance), double-blind (neither the investigator nor the patient know the name of the assigned study drug), placebo- and active-controlled, parallel-group, multicenter study in patients with adult ADHD. The study population will include approximately 426 male and female patients, 18 to 55 years of age (inclusive) with a DSM-IV diagnosis of ADHD, who will be randomly assigned (like flipping a coin) in a 1:1:1:1:1:1 ratio to 1 of 6 treatment groups (1 milligrams per day [mg/d] JNJ-31001074, 3 mg/d JNJ-31001074, 10 mg/d JNJ 31001074, 80 mg/d atomoxetine HCl, 54 mg/d controlled-release [OROS] methylphenidate HCl, or placebo). Study centers will make every attempt to include approximately 4 women for every 10 men randomized. The study will consist of 3 phases: a screening phase of up to 7 days; a 42-day double-blind treatment phase; and a 7-day post-treatment phase, in which the investigator staff will call patients 7 days after the last dose of study drug, to ask about any adverse events. The total duration of patient participation will be approximately 8 weeks. During the screening and double-blind treatment phases, patients will have periodic assessments at visits (screening, Day 1, Day 4, Day 7, Day 14, Day 28, and Day 42) of the following: severity of ADHD symptoms, including inattention and impulsivity; daily function; sleep experience; and cigarette consumption and cigarette craving. In addition, patients will be asked to include an adult household member to complete the observer version of the Conners Adult ADHD Rating Scale (CAARS-O:SV) at the beginning and end of the study. Patients will take one oral capsules each day in the morning upon awakening, either JNJ-31001074 (1, 3, or 10 mg), matching atomoxetine HCL (40 or 80 mg), matching OROS methylphenidate HCl (36 or 54 mg), or matching placebo. For atomoxetine HCl, patients will receive 40 mg/d for the first 3 days, and 80 mg/d for the remainder of the study. For OROS methylphenidate HCl, patients will receive 36 mg/d for the first 3 days, and 54 mg/d for the remainder of the study.

What is being measured

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

  1. Change from baseline in the ADHD rating scale total score

    Measured: Through Day 42

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Secondary endpoints will include Clinical Global Impression of Change (CGI-C).

    Measured: At the end of the double-blind treatment phase (Day 42)

  2. Other secondary endpoints will include the change from baseline in the Conners Adult ADHD Rating Scale (CAARS-S:SV) and the Clinical Global Impression - Severity (CGI-S).

    Measured: Through the end of the double-blind treatment phase (Day 42)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Atomoxetine 80 mg/d, OROS methylphenidate HCl 54 mg/d and JNJ-31001074 3 mg/d in people with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, run by Johnson & Johnson Pharmaceutical Research & Development, L.L.C. at 35 sites in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 8 inclusion and 9 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 4 Mar 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 35 sites in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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?

Change from baseline in the ADHD rating scale total score (time frame: Through Day 42). 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 NCT00880217, 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.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 4 Mar 2013.
