What is being measured

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

  1. AZD1446 compared to placebo, improves ADHD core symptoms in adult non-users and users of nicotine products after 2 weeks of treatment as measured by the Conners' Adult ADHD Rating Scale-Investigator Rated (CAARS-INV) Total ADHD Symptoms score (18 item)

    Measured: The CAARS-INV will be administered once at each of the following visits: Visit 1; Visit 2; Visits 3,4,5; Visit 7; Visits 8, 9, 10; Visit 12; and Visits 13, 14 and 15

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. To evaluate the effect of AZD1446 treatment compared to placebo on ADHD symptoms as derived from the 30 item Conners' Adult ADHD Rating Scale-Investigator Rated (CAARS-INV) scoring

    Measured: Visit 1; Visit 2; Visits 3,4,5; Visit 7; Visits 8, 9, 10; Visit 12; and Visits 13, 14 and 15

  2. To assess the safety and tolerability of effects of 2 weeks treatment with AZD1446 compared to placebo.

    Measured: From enrollment visit to follow up

  3. To evaluate the pharmacokinetics (PK) of AZD1446.

    Measured: Visits 2,3, 4 7, 8, 9 12, 13 and 14 PK will be collected

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing AZD1446 in people with Adult ADHD, run by AstraZeneca at 6 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 3 inclusion and 3 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 2 Sep 2011. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 6 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?

AZD1446 compared to placebo, improves ADHD core symptoms in adult non-users and users of nicotine products after 2 weeks of treatment as measured by the Conners' Adult ADHD Rating Scale-Investigator Rated (CAARS-INV) Total ADHD Symptoms score (18 item) (time frame: The CAARS-INV will be administered once at each of the following visits: Visit 1; Visit 2; Visits 3,4,5; Visit 7; Visits 8, 9, 10; Visit 12; and Visits 13, 14 and 15). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 2 Sep 2011.
