25 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
Determine if atomoxetine is safe and well tolerated by children with fetal alcohol syndrome.
The purpose of this study is to determine if atomoxetine hydrochloride improves inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity problems in children exposed to alcohol during birth.
We are the missing link in clinical trials, connecting patients and researchers seamlessly and conveniently using a mobile health platform to advance medical research. We make it easy for patients to contribute to research for medical conditions that matter most to them, regardless of their location or ability to travel.
The purpose of this study is to test the intervention using a more rigorous randomized controlled trial design in order to demonstrate its efficacy compared to a wait-list control, thus ensuring that change in behavior does not occur due to the passage of time alone. Using this design will also allow us to improve upon our prior clinical research by facilitating obtainment of post-treatment and follow-up data (as families in the clinical-only service stop attending treatment when behavior improves, and have often not followed-up for booster sessions or measure completion).
The purpose of this study is to determine which dosages of dexmethylphenidate HCl extended-release capsules may represent effective treatment for ADHD in children 6-12 years of age.
This study develops and refines an online platform that will support clinician-directed behavioral and organizational skills intervention for adolescents with Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) with input guided from key stakeholders during focus groups and interviews (phase 1), extended usability testing (phase 2), and a pilot randomized trial (phase 3) of the online tool used in conjunction with an organizational skills intervention.

A trial to assess the safety and efficacy of OPC-64005 in the treatment of adult attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder.
In contrast to mothers with Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), the impact of paternal ADHD in families and children with ADHD symptoms has not been studied, despite the prevalence of ADHD in males. Thus, the investigators do not know the feasibility, impact on treatment on the family and child, and effects of treating fathers relative to mothers with ADHD. Paternal ADHD is associated with negative parenting and child conduct problems. The investigators hypothesize that successfully treating parental ADHD in fathers will have a beneficial effects on the family that will extend to the child. Specifically, the investigators believe that stimulant medication ((Lisdexamfetamine (LDX) or a different ADHD medication if poor response to LDX) with fathers will reduce father's ADHD symptoms and improve parenting. Effects of stimulant treatment of fathers will be compared to Behavioral Parent Training (BPT) on parenting, and paternal and child outcomes in fathers with ADHD who have children between the ages of 3 -8. As in the investigator's previous work, the investigators will bank paternal and child DNA and RNA for later examination of pharmacogenetic and epigenetic effects (i.e. RNA) of stimulant response.
This study is a 12-week, open-label pilot study to test the effects of MMFS-201-301 on cognition and function in adults with ADHD. Subjects may enter the trial on a stable dose of medication for ADHD, and MMFS-201-301 will be given. Subjects who do not enter on a stable dose of ADHD medication will receive MMFS-201-301 alone.
The aim of this study is to examine the mechanisms by which stimulant medications reduce symptoms in patients with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). Using Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), the investigators have found that the volumes of certain brain regions are reduced in patients with ADHD. The reduced volumes were much less pronounced if patients had been treated with stimulant medications, suggesting that stimulants may reduce the symptoms of ADHD by reversing these volume reductions. In a second and related study, the investigators found that in patients with ADHD, emotional processing was normalized when patients were taking stimulant medications. Both studies point to possible mechanisms by which stimulants are effective; however, a significant limitation of these findings is that they were derived from cross-sectional studies. In this current study, the investigators hope to replicate these treatment effects of stimulants in a prospective, controlled manner. The investigators plan to measure ADHD symptom severity in patients before and after 12-weeks of controlled treatment with either a stimulant medication or placebo while utilizing structural and functional MRI. Combining imaging with a randomized controlled trial will allow us to better assess the effects of stimulants on brain function and structure.
This study seeks to determine, using special sleep tests (polysomnography and actigraphy) if guanfacine extended release is able to improve nighttime sleep in children with ADHD - associated insomnia while improving daytime ADHD symptoms. Male and female children with diagnosed or suspected ADHD with sleep problems (difficulty falling asleep, difficulty staying asleep, or less than expected hours of sleep) will be recruited. After obtaining informed consent and assent (when appropriate) and after discontinuation of excluded medications, children will have evaluations of his or her sleep and evaluations confirming the ADHD diagnosis. Children who successfully pass screening will be enrolled into the double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized investigation with 50% of participants receiving guanfacine extended release and 50% of participants receiving matching placebo. Using a flexible-dose optimization design based on ADHD symptom improvement and medication tolerability, the dose will be adjusted between 1 to 4 mg over the course of four weeks. At the end of medication adjustment (week 4 or 5), ADHD questionnaires, sleep questionnaires, and sleep tests will be repeated and analyzed. The medication will be weaned over the course of the following 3-10 days.
This study examines the efficacy of two computer-based training systems to teach children with ADHD to attend more effectively.
The aim of the iSPOT-A study is to: 1. identify brain, genetic and cognitive markers of Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder, and 2. identify brain, genetic and cognitive markers that predict treatment response to short-acting methylphenidate in children and adolescents diagnosed with Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder.
The purpose of this study is to determine if CLONICEL (clonidine HCl sustained release) is a safe and effective add-on to psychostimulant therapy in children and adolescents with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).
This study will determine the efficacy of cognitive behavioral therapy in treating adults with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder.
This study will determine the effectiveness of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) in treating the symptoms of attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in adults who have not responded to drug treatment. Study hypothesis: CBT is an effective treatment for adult ADHD.
This is a placebo controlled study evaluating the efficacy and safety of medication in adults with Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD).
This study uses different types of functional magnetic resonance imagining (fMRI) to generate individual transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) targets. During the TMS/fMRI imagining sessions, the investigators stimulate a target of either high or low regional controllability during a working memory task to investigate network responses and the impact of TMS on behavior.

Subjects will be between the ages of 6 and 12 at the beginning of the study.
The purpose of this research study is to evaluate the effect of atomoxetine (also known as Strattera) compared to placebo (inactive substance) on daily activities such as attention and focus, thinking ability and muscle movements in subjects with early Huntington Disease (HD) and attention deficit disorder (ADD).
This research plan proposes to conduct a double-blind, placebo-controlled pilot clinical trial in 36 adults with mild Huntington's disease (HD) to address the following research aims: 1. To determine the effect of citalopram compared to placebo in patients with early HD on executive function and other outcome variables including functional measures (health-related quality of life, work productivity, and self-reported attention), motor performance, and psychiatric status, 2. To study the relationship between executive function and functional status in patients with early HD after selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) treatment, and 3. To examine the effect of citalopram treatment on volumetric and metabolic (i.e, N-acetyl-aspartate concentration) measures in the neostriatum among patients with recently diagnosed Huntington's disease.
