Subjects' medical history will be reviewed by the PI and current prescription regimen will be reviewed for wakefulness-promoting drugs including CNS stimulants, histaminergic, noradrenergic and dopaminergic medications, as well as CYP2D6 inhibitors. The primary investigator will determine on a case by case basis if concomitant use of the patient's current prescriptions would affect response to Dyanavel XR. Stimulant medications must be washed out prior to baseline (methylphenidate or amphetamine based).
  • Subjects must not have a known hypersensitivity, allergy intolerance or documented history of non-responsivity to amphetamine-based medications.

About this study

Official title: A Single Center, Flexible-Dose, 10-Week, Randomized, Double-Blinded, Placebo-Controlled, Clinical Trial To Study The Efficacy Of Dyanavel XR In Treating Co-Occurring Fatigue In Adults With Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)

The goal of this clinical trial is to study the impact of Dyanavel on co-occuring fatigue in adults with Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder. The main question it aims to answer is whether Dyanavel XR leads to a statistically significant reduction in fatigue compared to placebo, as measured by the Fatigue Symptom Inventory.

Read the detailed description

10-week single center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, flexible titration trial evaluating the efficacy of Dyanavel (Dyanavel XR) XR in the treatment of fatigue symptoms in adult subjects with a diagnosis of ADHD. Subjects will be randomly assigned (1:1) to a Dyanavel (Dyanavel XR) XR (flexible titration dosing) group (n = 22 to 25) or placebo group (n = 22 to 25). The study will utilize an intent to treat model and impute data, if statistically feasible, from dropouts utilizing a MNAR (missing not at random) approach.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Dyanavel XRDrug

    Dosing will begin the morning following Visit 2. Subjects in the active group will begin the study on 5 mg of Dyanavel XR. Subjects will be advised to take one capsule each morning upon awakening, dosed consistently with respect to time. Subjects will be advised that tablets should be swallowed whole, not crushed, chewed, or cut. Subjects can take Dyanavel XR with or without food.

    Subjects will return to the study site on a weekly (and later, bi-weekly) basis for evaluation of symptoms and possible side effects. Subjects will be titrated to their optimal dose based on the dose titration schedule displayed in Section 5.1. The PI will be available to consult with patients as needed between Week 0 and Week 4 to adjust dosage per the PI's clinical judgment.

  • PlaceboDrug

    Dosing will begin the morning following Visit 2. Subjects in the placebo group will begin the study on 5 mg of placebo. Subjects will be advised to take one tablet each morning upon awakening, dosed consistently with respect to time. Subjects will be advised that tablets should be swallowed whole, not crushed, chewed, or cut. Subjects can take Dyanavel XR with or without food.

What is being measured

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

  1. Fatigue Symptom Inventory (FSI)

    Rating scale completed by study coordinator or PI. Score would be 0-10 with 10 being a worse outcome.

    Measured: Screening, Baseline, weeks 1, 2, 3, 4, 6 and 8

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Behavior Rating Inventory of Executive Functioning- Adult (BRIEF-A)

    Rating scale to assess subject's cognitive functioning. T scores are used to interpret the individual's level of executive functioning, and are derived from their raw scores. T-scores of 65 or over are considered clinically significant.

    Measured: Screening, Baseline, weeks 1, 2, 3, 4, 6 and 8

  2. ADHD Rating Scale (ADHD-RS)

    Rating scale to evaluate symptoms of adult ADHD. Scores range from 0-54, with higher scores indicates a worse outcome.

    Measured: Screening, Baseline, weeks 1, 2, 3, 4, 6 and 8

  3. ADHD Quality of Life Scale (ADHDQOL)

    Rating scale to assess quality of life, with possible scores ranging from 0-100. Higher scores are indicative of a better outcome.

    Measured: Screening, Baseline, weeks 1, 2, 3, 4, 6 and 8

  4. Clinical Global Impression Scales (CGI)

    Clinician's subjective rating of subject's severity on a 7-point likert scale from 0-7, with higher scores indicative of a worse outcome.

    Measured: Screening, Baseline, weeks 1, 2, 3, 4, 6 and 8

  5. Epworth Sleepiness Scale (ESS)

    Rating scale to assess level of daytime sleepiness. Scoers range from 0-24 with higher scores indicative of a worse outcome.

    Measured: Screening, Baseline, weeks 1, 2, 3, 4, 6 and 8

  6. Insomnia Severity Index (ISI)

    Rating scale to assess level of insomnia. Scores range from 0-28 with higher scores indicative of a worse outcome.

    Measured: Screening, Baseline, weeks 1, 2, 3, 4, 6 and 8

  7. Fibromyalgia Impact Questionnaire

    Rating scale to assess subject's symptoms of fibromyalgia. Scores can range from 0-80, with higher scores indicative of a worse outcome.

    Measured: Screening, Baseline, weeks 1, 2, 3, 4, 6 and 8

Model description
8-week single center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, flexible titration trial evaluating the efficacy of Dyanavel (Dyanavel XR) XR in the treatment of fatigue symptoms in adult subjects with a diagnosis of ADHD. Subjects will be randomly assigned (1:1) to a Dyanavel (Dyanavel XR) XR (flexible titration dosing) group (n = 22 to 25) or placebo group (n = 22 to 25). The study will utilize an intent to treat model and impute data, if statistically feasible, from dropouts utilizing a MNAR (missing not at random) approach. 50 subjects qualifying for a ADHD diagnosis with co-occurring clinically significant fatigue symptoms will be randomized into the trial in two groups to ensure a minimum of 44 subjects completing the trial ( 25 per group, 10% hypothesized attrition rate).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Dyanavel XR in people with Fatigue and Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, run by Rochester Center for Behavioral Medicine at 1 site 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 13 inclusion and 19 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 21 Nov 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site 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 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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

Contact Jaime Saal, MA (2486088800 ext. 231, jsaal@rcbm.net), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Fatigue Symptom Inventory (FSI) (time frame: Screening, Baseline, weeks 1, 2, 3, 4, 6 and 8). 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 21 Nov 2024.
