Two phase 2 studies evaluated the efficacy and tolerability of centanafadine sustained-release (SR) for adults with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).
In a phase 2a, flexible-dose, single-blind study, 41 male patients (aged 18‒55 years) with a diagnosis of ADHD (based on Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fourth Edition) were titrated with centanafadine-SR 200‒300, 400, or 500 mg/d for 2 weeks, and then were treated with the titrated dose for 2 weeks. In a phase 2b, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, crossover study, 85 male and female patients (aged 18‒60 years) with a diagnosis of ADHD (Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fifth Edition) were titrated to target doses of centanafadine-SR 400, 500, 600, or 800 mg/d over the course of 1 week, and then received their titrated dose for 3 weeks. The primary outcome in both studies was mean total ADHD Rating Scale-IV (ADHD-RS-IV) score.
In the phase 2a study, mean ADHD-RS-IV total score decreased by 21.41 (standard deviation 10.74) from the start of active centanafadine-SR treatment to the end of week 4 (<0.001). In the phase 2b study, centanafadine-SR treatment resulted in a statistically significant improvement in ADHD-RS-IV from baseline to week 3 compared with placebo (least-squares mean -16.5 vs -8.4; <0.001; effect size 0.66), with significant efficacy demonstrated as early as week 1. Centanafadine-SR was generally well tolerated at doses ≤400 mg. Most treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) were mild or moderate; decreased appetite, headache, and nausea were the most frequently reported. In the 2 studies, 13 of 120 patients discontinued centanafadine-SR due to TEAEs; however, only 1 patient who received ≤400 mg discontinued due to a TEAE. No serious TEAEs were reported at any dose.
These results support the continued development of centanafadine-SR at doses up to 400 mg/d.
两项2期研究评估了盐酸西他那非缓释片(SR)治疗成人注意力缺陷多动障碍(ADHD)的疗效和耐受性。
在一项2a期灵活剂量单盲研究中,41例诊断为ADHD(依据《精神疾病诊断与统计手册》第四版)的男性患者(年龄18 - 55岁)接受200 - 300、400或500 mg/d的盐酸西他那非缓释片滴定治疗2周,之后接受滴定剂量治疗2周。在一项2b期随机双盲安慰剂对照交叉研究中,85例诊断为ADHD(《精神疾病诊断与统计手册》第五版)的男性和女性患者(年龄18 - 60岁)在1周内滴定至目标剂量400、500、600或800 mg/d的盐酸西他那非缓释片,之后接受滴定剂量治疗3周。两项研究的主要结局均为ADHD评定量表-IV(ADHD-RS-IV)总分均值。
在2a期研究中,从开始盐酸西他那非缓释片活性治疗至第4周结束,ADHD-RS-IV总分均值下降了21.41(标准差10.74)(<0.001)。在2b期研究中,与安慰剂相比,盐酸西他那非缓释片治疗从基线至第3周使ADHD-RS-IV有统计学显著改善(最小二乘均值-16.5对-8.4;<0.001;效应大小0.66),早在第1周即显示出显著疗效。剂量≤400 mg时,盐酸西他那非缓释片总体耐受性良好。大多数治疗中出现的不良事件(TEAE)为轻度或中度;食欲减退、头痛和恶心是最常报告的。在这两项研究中,120例患者中有13例因TEAE停用盐酸西他那非缓释片;然而,接受≤400 mg剂量治疗的患者中只有1例因TEAE停药。各剂量均未报告严重TEAE。
这些结果支持继续研发剂量高达400 mg/d的盐酸西他那非缓释片。
