What participants receive

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

  • Lisdexamfetamine DimesylateDrug

    Study is a two-period cross-over design where subjects will have 2 Screening visits, a Baseline visit, and then be enrolled into the study for 2 Periods. Each Period has 2-3 visits and lasts from 2-6 weeks. At each Period visit subjects will be given one of the two treatment arm drugs that have been solubilized and then have blood drawn for pharmacokinetic analysis and the Drug Rating Questionnaire administered. At the end of Period 1 subjects will be crossed-over to the alternative treatment drug for the Period 2. The Vyvanse™ capsule contents will emptied into water to make a solution and given to subjects to drink at the beginning of each Period visit.

  • Racemic mixture of dextroamphetamine and lisdexamfetamineDrug

    Same visits as described for Vyvanse™. The ADDERALL XR® capsule contents will be crushed, solubilized with water, and given to subjects to drink prior to pharmacokinetic blood draws and DRQ-S administration over the course of two periods.

What is being measured

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

  1. Drug Rating Questionnaire-Subject (DRQ-S), Question 2

    Question 2: How much do you like the effects you are feeling now? Questions are rated on a 29-point scale from 1 (not at all) to 29 (an awful lot). The higher the score the stronger the subjective experience. This is a subjective measure of a drug's effect that has been used to assess the abuse potential of drugs.

    Measured: Pre-dose and 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 3.5, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 12 and 24 hours post-dose

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. DRQ-S, Question 1

    Question 1: How much do you feel the drug now? Questions are rated on a 29-point scale from 1 (not at all) to 29 (an awful lot). The higher the score the stronger the subjective experience. This is a subjective measure of a drug's effect that has been used to assess the abuse potential of drugs.

    Measured: Pre-dose and 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 3.5, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 12 and 24 hours post-dose

  2. DRQ-S, Question 3

    Question 3: Do you dislike the drug effect you are feeling now? Questions are rated on a 29-point scale from 1 (not at all) to 29 (an awful lot). The higher the score the stronger the subjective experience. This is a subjective measure of a drug's effect that has been used to assess the abuse potential of drugs.

    Measured: Pre-dose and 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 3.5, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 12 and 24 hours post-dose

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Lisdexamfetamine Dimesylate and Racemic mixture of dextroamphetamine and lisdexamfetamine in people with Healthy, run by Shire 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 4 inclusion and 10 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 9 Jun 2021. 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. 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 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 7 Jul 2010). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Drug Rating Questionnaire-Subject (DRQ-S), Question 2 (time frame: Pre-dose and 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 3.5, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 12 and 24 hours post-dose). 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 9 Jun 2021.
