Primary Endpoints

Change From Baseline in Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder Rating Scale-fourth Edition (ADHD-RS-IV) Total Score at up to 4 Weeks
Baseline and 1, 2, 3 and 4 weeks

The ADHD-RS-IV consists of 18 items scored on a 4-point scale ranging from 0 (no symptoms) to 3 (severe symptoms) with total score ranging from 0 to 54.

Permanent Product Measure of Performance (PERMP) Total Score Over the Treatment Day in the Crossover Phase
2, 4, 8, 10, 12 and 14 hours post-dose on Day 7

The Permanent Product Measure of Performance (PERMP) is a skill adjusted math test. The PERMP score is the sum of the number of math problems attempted plus the number of math problems answered correctly in a 10-minute session. The scores range from 0-800 with higher scores indicating better performance.
