Cardiovascular Study of Lisdexamfetamine in Healthy and Hypertensive Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder Adults
Description

The purpose of this research study is to learn about the effects of a medication called Vyvanse on the heart (cardiovascular system). The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved Vyvanse for the treatment of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). People who have ADHD have trouble paying attention, organizing, and planning; these symptoms can cause problems at work, socially and at home. Vyvanse (also known as Lisdexamfetamine) is a stimulant class medication. There have been reports of serious cardiovascular effects in children and adults treated with stimulants. While there is no definite evidence that these events were related to the use of stimulants, the deaths have raised questions about the cardiovascular safety of stimulants. The study will involve in-depth cardiovascular tests, namely echocardiograph (ultrasound of the heart) and cardiopulmonary exercise test (also called stress test; subjects exercise on a bicycle while measuring their heart activity and breathing is monitored by cardiologists). The investigators predict to see changes in blood pressure and heart rate as shown in previous clinical studies, and that the in-depth cardiovascular tests will provide new insights into the cardiovascular impact of stimulants.

An Open-Label Treatment With Randomization Observation, Investigator-Initiated Study, on the Duration and Efficacy of Jornay PM (Methylphenidate Hydrochloride Extended-Release Capsules) on Adult ADHD Symptoms and Executive Function and Emotional Regulation Throughout the Day Into Early Evening
Description

The goal of this study is to extend the efficacy evidence of sustained release methylphenidate compound (JornayPM) in adults with Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). JornayPM has recently been approved for treatment of patients 6 years and older with ADHD; the release mechanism is unique among ADHD products in that it is taken in the evening, with effects in the morning upon awakening and then throughout the subsequent day. Of note, to date, there is no clinical data as to the tolerability or clinical effects or dosing in adults with ADHD; therefore the primary aim of this trial is to gather the first set of these data.

Oxytocin and Cognitive Control in Adult ADHD
Description

This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled crossover study of single-dose intranasal oxytocin (24 IU) in 18-55 year-old men with attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Following a screening visit to determine eligibility, participants will return for two main study visits. During the main study visits, study participants will receive either oxytocin (Syntocinon® nasal spray, Victoria Pharmacy, Zürich, Switzerland) or placebo (inactive ingredients of Syntocinon® nasal spray, Victoria Pharmacy), followed by assessments of cognitive control over attention and behavior. Twenty-four participants will be randomized 1:1 to one of two drug orders, i.e., oxytocin - placebo or placebo - oxytocin. In an additional neuroimaging substudy, a subset of participants will undergo task-based and resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) following oxytocin/placebo administration to investigate the effects of oxytocin on fMRI activation and functional connectivity within the cognitive control network.

OROS Methylphenidate (Concerta) in the Treatment of Adult ADHD
Description

This study will look at the effectiveness of osmotic release oral system (OROS) methylphenidate (Concerta) in treating attention deficit hyperactvity disorder (ADHD) in adults.

Subjects will experience one screening visit and one baseline visit. Those who meet admission criteria will enter the double-blind phase. This will involve two 4-week treatment periods one of which will involve the use of Concerta and the other a placebo pill. Subjects who complete the double-blind phase will be allowed to enter a 180-day, open-label Concerta phase designed to assess long-term effects.

Does Pharmacological Treatment of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) in Adults Enhance Parenting Performance?
Description

It is now well recognized that Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is a chronic disorder of childhood that extends into adulthood for many individuals. A number of impairments in daily life functioning have been identified in adults with ADHD, including marital distress, risky driving, and using less effective parenting practices (e.g., Barkley, 2006). Specifically, some parents with ADHD have been found to use inconsistent discipline, less parental involvement, and less positive reinforcement with their children compared to parents without ADHD (e.g., Chen \& Johnston, 2007; Chronis-Tuscano, Clarke, Rooney, Diaz, \& Pian, 2008). While there is some evidence that stimulant medication improves parental functioning for adults with ADHD, only one study has specifically explored the use of stimulant medication and parenting(Chronis-Tuscano, Seymour, Stine, Jones, Jiles, Rooney, et al., 2008). The purpose of this study is to explore whether or not the stimulant medication, lisdexamfetamine, improves parent functioning. Measures of parenting behavior, parental psychosocial functioning, and child psychosocial functioning will be collected. It is hypothesized that lisdexamfetamine will be associated with some improvement in these assessments.

Study of Adderall-XR for the Treatment of Adult Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder and Cocaine Dependence
Description

The proposed protocol is a 3 group double-blind, placebo-controlled outpatient study of the safety and efficacy of Adderall-XR (ER-MAS) in the treatment of comorbid ADHD and cocaine dependence. Since this medication has independently shown promise in helping with ADHD and cocaine abuse, we are proposing that it may be successful in the treatment of comorbid ADHD and cocaine abuse. We plan to enroll 75 subjects in a 14-week trial. The primary objectives of the study are to determine the efficacy of ER-MAS in promoting cocaine abstinence and improvement in ADHD symptomology among cocaine-dependent patients with comorbid ADHD.
