A Randomized, Double Blind, Multicenter, Placebo Controlled, Parallel Group, Efficacy and Safety Study of 2 Doses of Dasotraline in Adults With Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)

This is a randomized, double blind, multicenter, parallel group, outpatient study evaluating
the efficacy and safety of dasotraline in adults with ADHD.

This is a randomized, double blind, multicenter, parallel group, outpatient study evaluating
the efficacy and safety of dasotraline in adults with ADHD using 2 doses of dasotraline (4
mg/day or 6 mg/day) versus placebo over an 8 week treatment period (8 weeks of active
treatment followed by a 2-week withdrawal phase).

Inclusion Criteria:

established by a comprehensive psychiatric evaluation that reviews psychiatric
criteria. Diagnosis is confirmed by Adult ADHD Clinical Diagnostic Scale (ACDS).
Note: The diagnosis of ADHD and appropriateness of inclusion in the trial will be
independently confirmed by external expert review. Experts will review diagnostic and
other screening instruments for each subject and approval is required before a
subject can be randomized. The Mini International Neuropsychiatric Interview (MINI)
will be administered to confirm the absence of any other comorbid psychiatric
disorders.

will be based on the core laboratory ECG interpretation report.

aspartate aminotransferase (AST) value ≥ 2 times the ULN, or a blood urea nitrogen
(BUN) value ≥ 1.5 times the ULN for the reference range.
