Study Summary

The study is designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of SHP465 in the treatment of ADHD in children and adolescents (aged 6-17 years). The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of SHP465 administered as a daily morning dose compared to placebo in the treatment of children and adolescents (6-17 years of age inclusive) diagnosed with ADHD.

Primary Outcome

The ADHD-RS-IV consists of 18 items designed to reflect current symptomatology of ADHD based on diagnostic and statistical manual of mental disorders, fourth edition - text revision (DSM-IV-TR) criteria. Each item is scored on a 4-point scale ranging from 0 (reflecting no symptoms) to 3 (reflecting severe symptoms) with total scores ranging from 0-54. The 18 items may be grouped into 2 subscales: hyperactivity/impulsivity (even-numbered items 2-18) and inattentiveness (odd-numbered items 1-17).
