STUDY SYNOPSIS
Protocol number:  SPD489-347
Drug: Lisdexamfetamine dimesylate
Title of the study:  A Phase 3, Randomized, Double-blind, Multicenter, Parallel-group, Placebo-controlled, 
Fixed-dose Safety and Efficacy Study of SPD489 Compared with Placebo in Preschool Children Aged 
4-5 Years with Attention-deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder
Number of Subjects (total and for each treatment arm):
Approximately 245 subjects will be screened to randomize approximately 195 subjects in a 5:5:5:5:6 ratio to 
SPD489 5, 10, 20, 30 mg  or placebo to achieve 156 completers for the study (30 in each active treatment group 
and 36 in the placebo group) and 85% power for the primary efficacy analysis. The sample size planned at study 
initiation is estimated based on the primary comparison of the change from baseline in the total score on the 
ADHD-RS-IV Preschool Version between those who received SPD489 10, 20, 30 mg pooled vs. those 
randomized to placebo, using a group sequential design with 1 interim analysis, using the Lan-DeMets alpha 
spending function with O'Brien-Fleming boundary for the primary efficacy endpoint. Assumptions for the 
calculation include the true mean difference of 8.4 with the common standard deviation of 14 for the primary 
efficacy endpoint, for an effect size of 0.6, and a dropout rate of 20%. 
A blinded sample size re-estimation is planned to ensure sufficient study power to detect a clinically meaningful 
drug effect for the primary efficacy endpoint. This re-estimation will be performed after approximately 75% of 
the 195 randomized subjects have either completed or discontinued from the study. The proposed blinded 
sample size re-estimation will only be conducted if the study does not meet the primary efficacy criterion at the 
interim analysis, when approximately 60% of randomized subjects having completed or discontinued from the 
study. In this case, cumulative primary efficacy data will be used to estimate a pooled common standard 
deviation (SD) to ensure that the variability hypothesized at the design stage (SD = 14) is not underestimated. 
Together with the assumed treatment difference of 8.4, the final total number of subjects to be enrolled will be 
calculated using the re-estimated pooled SD. If the re-estimated pooled common SD is larger than 14, the 
sample size will be increased. Otherwise, the sample size will remain the same. The total number of planned 
completers could remain at 156, or could potentially be as high as 218, which corresponds to the 97.5% 
percentile of the distribution of the estimator on the assumed true common standard deviation of 14. Note that 
the total of 218 completers is not considered a cap. As the final sample size is data driven, a higher number, 
though unlikely, is possible. 
The dose-response relationship will be measured by the ADHD-RS-IV Preschool Version Total Score change 
from baseline. Assuming the maximum difference in change from baseline in ADHD-RS-IV Preschool Version 
Total Score between 0 mg (placebo) and SPD489 (5, 10, 20 or 30 mg) is 13.0 points, and has a standard 
deviation of 14 for the change, then in order to detect a plausible dose-response curve at 85% power and a 
significance level of 0.05 (2-sided) using MCP-Mod with equal allocation to the treatment groups, it is 
necessary to have 18 completers for each arm. Assuming a 20% dropout rate, a total of 24 subjects for each 
treatment group are required to be randomized. Therefore, the overall sample size of the study will be sufficient 
for dose-response analysis. 
Approximately 25% of the subjects enrolled will be female.

Objectives:
Primary:  To evaluate the efficacy of SPD489 compared to placebo in preschool children (4-5 years of age 
inclusive at the time of consent) with Attention-deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). The primary measure 
of efficacy will be the clinician-administered ADHD Rating Scale Preschool Version (ADHD-RS-IV Preschool 
Version) Total Score.
Secondary:  

Key Secondary:  To evaluate the efficacy of SPD489 compared to placebo, using a global clinical 
measure of improvement, the Clinical Global Impression- Global Improvement (CGI-I) Scale.

Secondary: 
o
To evaluate the dose-response relationship in preschool children with ADHD, using the 
ADHD-RS Preschool Version Total Score.
o
To evaluate the safety and tolerability of SPD489 based on the occurrence of treatment-emergent 
adverse events (TEAEs), specific evaluation of vital signs (systolic and diastolic blood pressure 
and pulse), height, weight, and body mass index, clinical laboratory evaluations, electrocardiogram 
(ECG) results, sleep assessment, and the Columbia Suicide Rating Scale (C-SSRS). 
Rationale:
Based on IMS Health data and discussion at the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Pediatric Advisory 
Committee in September 2012, it has been noted that there is off-label use of SPD489 in children under 5 years 
old (4%, or approximately 100,000 patients between February 2007 and March 2012). The lack of controlled 
data regarding the safety and efficacy of SPD489 in the preschool ADHD population, in concert with the 
prevalence of off-label prescribing of SPD489 supports the need for SPD489 studies in the preschool ADHD 
population. Importantly, it is not known if the therapeutic effects of stimulant medications in school age children 
with ADHD can be extrapolated to preschool children with ADHD. There are some indications that the effect 
size may be reduced (Greenhill 2006). There may also be differences in the safety and pharmacokinetic profiles 
(Wigal 2007; Wigal 2006). 
Generating controlled data in this population will provide practicing physicians with information on the safety 
and efficacy profiles of SPD489 in preschool children with ADHD.
Investigational product, dose, and mode of administration:
The sponsor will provide SPD489 as 5, 10, 20, and 30 mg strength capsules. The sponsor will also provide 
placebo, which will appear identical to the investigational product. 
All subjects will be instructed to take 1 capsule daily throughout the study at approximately 7:00AM. SPD489 
will be administered by means of the capsule being swallowed whole or opened, the entire contents of the 
capsule mixed with orange juice, water, or yogurt and the mixture administered to the subject. The subject must 
ingest the entire amount of the mixture immediately within 3 minutes. The empty gelatinous capsule will be 
discarded.
Methodology:
This study is a Phase 3 randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, fixed-dose study to evaluate the efficacy 
of SPD489 compared to placebo in preschool children (4-5 years of age inclusive at the time of consent) with 
ADHD.
The study will have 4 periods: 
(1) Screening and Washout 28 days 
(2) Fixed-dose titration 3 weeks 
(3) Dose-maintenance 3 weeks 
(4) Safety Follow-up- 7 days

Subjects will be required to visit the site about 8 times over a 10-week period. The Schedule of Assessments 
(Table 1) details all procedures to be completed at each visit and should serve as the primary section regarding 
visit-specific study procedures.
Screening Procedures
Subjects will be screened at Visit -1 to establish eligibility for study participation. Screening procedures may 
take place across multiple days to allow enough time to complete all procedures and to confirm the subject’s 
initial eligibility.
Table 1 details all procedures to be completed at the screening visit (Visit -1). Additional clarification on the 
procedures performed during the screening visit (Visit -1) is provided below.

Eligibility will be established per inclusion and exclusion criteria, including documentation of any prior 
non-pharmacological treatment, and specified ADHD and Clinical Global Impressions – Severity of 
Illness (CGI-S) severity criteria. Areas of impairment will be recorded for all subjects for assessing the 
severity of the subject’s condition.

All AEs occurring after signature of informed consent must be recorded in the source documents and 
case report form (CRF).

Twelve-lead ECG will be performed after approximately 5 minutes of rest. The investigator will 
perform the initial interpretation of the ECG immediately after collection to ensure the safety of each 
subject. The ECG tracing will be sent to the central reader for analysis. Upon review of the report from 
the central reader, the investigator will re-evaluate the clinical significance of the ECG in light of other 
safety data for the subject. If abnormal and significant results are observed following assessment by the 
central reader, the investigator, in consultation with the appointed contract research organization 
(CRO) medical monitor, will confirm the subject’s eligibility to participate in this study.

Blood pressure and pulse will be collected 3 times after resting for 5 minutes (with approximately 
2 minutes in between each collection) using a manual cuff during the visit. The average of each set of 
3 measurements will be used to determine continued participation in the study.  

The “Lifetime Recent” version of the Pediatric/Cognitively Impaired Version C-SSRS should be 
completed.

Record historical/concomitant medications as follows:
o
All lifetime psychoactive medications and lifetime non-pharmacological interventions 
(behavioral therapy) for ADHD
o
Other medications used during the 30 days prior to the screening visit (Visit -1)
Rating Scales and Assessments
Clinician-completed rating scales and assessments conducted by the site must be completed by the same rater 
with input from the same parent(s)/LAR whenever possible. The rating scales and assessments are described 
below. 
Screening Assessments
Kiddie – Schedule for Affective Disorders and Schizophrenia for School age Children – Present and Lifetime 
Version-Diagnostic Interview (K-SADS-PL)
The sponsor-approved clinician at the site who is trained and experienced in the evaluation of 4- to 5-year-old 
children with ADHD, will determine a diagnosis of ADHD based on a psychiatric interview and mental status 
examination utilizing the K-SADS-PL using the DSM IV-TR criteria for ADHD.
The K-SADS-PL is a semi-structured diagnostic interview designed to assess current and past episodes of 
psychopathology in children and adolescents according to Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental 
Disorders (DSM) IV TR criteria. Probes and objective criteria are provided to rate individual symptoms. The 
primary diagnoses assessed with the K-SADS-PL include, but are not limited to: major depression, dysthymia, 
mania, bipolar disorders, schizoaffective disorders, panic disorder, agoraphobia, separation anxiety disorder, 
avoidant disorder of childhood and adolescence, simple phobia, social phobia, overanxious disorder, generalized 
anxiety, obsessive compulsive disorder, ADHD, conduct disorder, and oppositional defiant disorder.

The K-SADS-PL is administered by interviewing the parent(s)/LAR(s), the subject, and finally achieving 
summary ratings, which include all sources of information (parent[s]/LAR, child, school, chart, and other). 
The K-SADS-PL will be administered by an individual experienced with the scale and qualified to establish a 
diagnosis. The site should maintain documentation of the K-SADS-PL training in the site’s files. All individuals 
performing this assessment must be pre-approved by the sponsor or delegated vendor. Based on the above 
criteria, suitable K-SADS-PL administrators may include physicians, nurse practitioners, or licensed 
psychologists.
Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test-Third Edition
The Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test, Third Edition, measures an individual’s receptive (hearing) vocabulary 
for Standard American English and provides a quick estimate of verbal ability or scholastic aptitude (Dunn and 
Dunn 1997). For purposes of this study, the Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test, Third Edition, will be used as a 
proxy for general cognitive ability. 
The Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test, Third Edition, will be administered by site personnel with training and 
experience in general psychological testing. All individuals performing this assessment must be pre-approved by 
the sponsor or delegated vendor.
Efficacy
Attention-deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder Rating Scale-IV Preschool Version 
The ADHD-RS-IV Preschool Version (McGoey et al. 2007) is completed by the clinician and will be 
administered at the baseline visit (Visit 0) and each subsequent visit up to and including Visit 6/ET to capture 
the ADHD symptoms within each study period. The ADHD-RS-IV Preschool Version was adapted from the 
ADHD Rating Scale-IV (DuPaul et al. 1998) and provides examples appropriate for the developmental level of 
preschool children. The ADHD-RS-IV Preschool Version is an 18-item questionnaire that requires the 
respondent to rate the frequency of occurrence of ADHD symptoms as defined by DSM IV TR criteria. Each 
item is scored on a 4-point scale ranging from 0 (never or rarely) to 3 (very often) with total scores ranging from 
0-54. The 18 items may be grouped into 2 subscales: hyperactivity/impulsivity (even numbered items 2-18) and 
inattentiveness (odd numbered items 1-17).
The ADHD-RS IV Preschool Version will be completed by a clinician trained and experienced in the evaluation 
of preschool children with ADHD. If it is not completed by the principal investigator or subinvestigator who is 
medically/clinically responsible for the subject, it must be reviewed and signed by them. All individuals 
performing this assessment must be pre-approved by the sponsor or delegated vendor.
Clinical Global Impressions (CGI)
The Clinical Global Impressions Scale (Guy 1976) permits a global evaluation of the subject’s severity and 
improvement over time. The Clinical Global Impressions Scale has been used extensively in clinical studies of 
ADHD (Michelson et al. 2001; Weiss et al. 2005; Wilens et al. 2001).
The investigator will perform the CGI-S to rate the severity of a subject’s condition on a 7-point scale ranging 
from 1 (normal, not at all ill) to 7 (among the most extremely ill subjects) at the baseline visit (Visit 0). 
Additionally, at the baseline visit (Visit 0), the investigator should establish 3 target areas of improvement with 
the subject and the subject’s parent(s)/LAR. To generate the targets, an open-ended question such as “If this 
program of treatment works for your child, what things do you hope he/she will be doing better?” should be 
asked. Ratings will be completed with respect to ADHD symptoms.
At each visit from Visit 1 up to and including Visit 6ET, the investigator will assess the subject’s overall 
improvement relative to the 3 target areas of improvement recorded at the baseline visit (Visit 0), on the CGI-I, 
a 7-point scale ranging from 1 (very much improved) to 7 (very much worse).  
The CGI-S and CGI-I should be completed by a clinician trained and experienced in the evaluation of preschool 
children with ADHD. If it is not completed by the principal investigator or sub-investigator who is 
medically/clinically responsible for the subject, it must be reviewed and signed by them. All individuals 
performing this assessment must be pre-approved by the sponsor or designee.

Children’s Sleep Habits Questionnaire (CSHQ) and Sleep Diary
The CSHQ is a tool designed to screen for the most common sleep problems in children, and consists of 
33 items for scoring and several extra items intended to provide administrators with other potentially useful 
information about respondents. The instrument evaluates the child’s sleep based on behavior within 8 different 
subscales: bedtime resistance, sleep-onset delay, sleep duration, sleep anxiety, night wakings, parasomnias, 
sleep-disordered breathing, and daytime sleepiness. The CSHQ will be conducted at each visit to the site starting 
with the baseline visit (Visit 0) and will be completed by the subject’s parent(s)/LAR. 
The subject’s parent(s)/LAR will complete a sleep diary to log daytime napping and nighttime sleep. 
Columbia-Suicide Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS)
The C-SSRS (Posner 2007) is a semistructured interview that captures the occurrence, severity, and frequency 
of suicide-related thoughts and behaviors during the assessment period. The interview includes definitions and 
suggested questions to solicit the type of information needed to determine if a suicide-related thought or 
behavior occurred. 
The C-SSRS contains 2 required items pertaining to suicidal ideation, 4 required items pertaining to suicidal 
behavior, and 1 required item pertaining to non-suicidal but self-injurious behavior. In situations where there is 
a positive response to the screening questions, there are 8 additional suicidal ideation items and 4 additional 
suicidal behavior items which are completed. Thus, there is a maximum of 19 items to be completed.
The C-SSRS must be performed by an individual who is medically responsible for the subject. All individuals 
performing this assessment must be pre-approved by the sponsor or delegated vendor.
The Pediatric/Cognitively Impaired Version of the scale will be used in the study. Two time point versions of 
the C-SSRS are used in this study:

The “Lifetime Recent” version will be administered at the screening visit (Visit -1). 

The “Since Last Visit” version will be completed at all study visits after the screening visit (Visit -1).

The Dose Response Analysis Set (DRAS) will consist of all subjects in the Safety Analysis Set who have at 
least 1 valid primary efficacy measurement (ADHD-RS total score) on the randomized target dose strength of 
the investigational product.
The above analysis sets are similarly defined for both the interim and the complete study analyses.
Primary Efficacy Endpoint
The primary efficacy endpoint is defined as the change from baseline in clinician-administered ADHD-RS-IV 
Preschool Version Total Score at Visit 6 (Week 6). 
Key Secondary Efficacy Endpoint
The key secondary efficacy endpoint is the improvement status based on CGI-I measurement at Visit 6
(Week 6).
Secondary Efficacy Endpoint
A secondary efficacy endpoint is the dose response relationship of SHP489 for randomized fixed-dose strength 
(placebo, SHP489 5, 10, 20, and 30 mg), as measured by the change from baseline for ADHD-RS Preschool 
Version Total Score at study stop (at interim analysis or end of study).
Safety Endpoints
Safety assessments include the occurrence of TEAEs, specific evaluation of blood pressure, pulse, height, 
weight, and body mass index, clinical laboratory evaluations and ECG results, sleep assessments (including 
sleep diary data and CSHQ), and C-SSRS. 
Statistical Methodology for Primary Efficacy Endpoint(s)
For the primary and key secondary efficacy analyses the SPD489 10, 20, and 30 mg dose strengths will be 
pooled together to compare with placebo group in change from baseline. For these analyses the SDP489 5 mg 
data will not be used.   
Primary efficacy endpoint will be analyzed using the linear mixed-effects model for repeated measures 
(MMRM) with treatment group, visit, and the interaction of treatment group with visit as factors, baseline 
ADHD-RS-IV Preschool Version Total Score as a covariate, and the interaction of the baseline ADHD-RS-IV 
Preschool Version Total Score with visit adjusted in the model. The primary contrast of interest will be pooled 
10, 20, and 30 mg dose treatment assessment at Visit 6 (Week 6) for SPD489 compared with placebo. The 
2-sided overall significance level for the primary endpoint analysis is 0.05. The nominal significance levels used 
at the interim and final analysis are described in the Interim Analysis section below.
Interim Analysis
The study implements a group sequential design with one interim analysis. The interim analysis is proposed at 
approximately 60% of planned subjects who either complete or discontinue the study.
The interim analysis will be conducted on the interim analysis dataset, which is defined as all data from 60% of 
initially planned subjects who have either completed or discontinued the study, together with data for subjects in 
the study up to the interim analysis data cut time point. The efficacy, safety, and sensitivity on missing data 
mechanisms analyses at the interim analysis will primarily be conducted using this dataset.
The Lan-DeMets alpha spending function with O’Brien-Fleming boundary will be used for alpha spending 
between the interim and end of study analysis for the primary endpoint. The Lan-DeMets alpha spending 
function with Pocock boundary will be applied to analyze the key secondary efficacy endpoint.
If the hypothesis for the primary efficacy endpoint is rejected at the interim analysis, then the study will be 
stopped for efficacy and all ongoing subjects from the study (SPD489-347) will be immediately rolled over to 
the open-label extension study (Study SPD489-348). In this case, using the same data cut point that contains the 
same information fractions as the primary efficacy interim analysis, the key secondary efficacy endpoint will be 
tested. In addition, the incremental data collected during the interim analysis process, i.e., the overrun, together 
with the interim analysis dataset will be used for primary and key secondary sensitivity analysis and all safety

analysis. Otherwise, if the primary efficacy criterion is not met at the interim analysis, then the hypothesis for 
the key secondary endpoint will not be tested at this time, and the study will continue to its completion, then the 
primary efficacy endpoint will be tested. If the primary efficacy test is rejected, then the key secondary efficacy 
endpoint will be tested. This testing procedure strongly protects the overall alpha level. In addition, all other 
efficacy and safety analyses will be conducted at this time.    
At the interim or final efficacy analysis, only the primary efficacy result will be used to determine if the study 
meets the efficacy criterion. The nominal significance level for the interim or final primary and key secondary 
efficacy endpoints for a 2-sided at a 0.05 significant level are specified below, calculated using East® 6.4. The 
calculations are based on 60% of planned sample size, and will be updated based on the actual information 
fraction at the interim analysis.

0.0257
Separately, if the primary efficacy criterion is met at the interim analysis, the interim analysis dataset together 
with overrun data will be used to evaluate the dose-response relationship with the DRAS. If the primary efficacy 
criterion is not met at the interim analysis and study continues to its completion, dose-response evaluation will 
be conducted using the end of study data. 
If the primary efficacy criterion is not met at the interim analysis, and the blinded sample size re-estimation 
causes a sample size increase, the nominal significance levels at the end of the study will be recalculated, such 
that the overall alpha level is not greater than 0.05 for the primary and key secondary analyses together. The 
calculations will be based on the new increased sample size, the actual information ratio, and the alpha already 
spent. 
It is estimated that the interim analysis will take up to 8 weeks from data cutoff to its completion. If the 
recruitment rate is high and the remaining 40% planned subjects are projected to be all or nearly all enrolled 
within those 8 weeks, the interim analysis will be waived with reasons documented. In this case, the end of study 
analysis will be conducted at the 2-sided significance level of 0.05 with primary and key secondary endpoints 
tested sequentially. Furthermore, the dose-response relationship will be evaluated. 
Statistical Methodology for Secondary Efficacy Endpoints

The key secondary efficacy endpoint, CGI-I score, will be analyzed using the same analysis method 
(MMRM) as for the primary efficacy endpoint. The baseline CGI-S score will be used as the covariate. 
The contrast of interest will be at Visit 6 (Week 6) for SPD489 compared with placebo.

The dose-response relationship of SPD489 as measured by the change from baseline for ADHD-RS 
Preschool Version Total Score for the randomized fixed-dose arms (placebo, SHP489 5, 10, 20, and 
30 mg) will be evaluated using the MCP-Mod methodology with DRAS.  
Safety Analyses
The Safety Analysis Set will be used to report the safety data. 
Clinical laboratory tests, vital signs, and ECG findings will be summarized by treatment group and visit using 
appropriate descriptive statistics. Potentially clinically important findings will also be summarized or listed by 
treatment group.

Adverse events will be coded using the Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Activities. Treatment-emergent 
adverse events are defined as adverse events (AEs) that start or deteriorate on or after the date of the first dose 
of investigational product and no later than 3 days following the last dose of investigational product in the 
double-blind phase. 
Treatment-emergent AEs will be summarized. The number and percent of subjects with TEAEs will be 
calculated for each system organ class, by preferred term, and by treatment. The severity of the TEAEs, the 
relationship to the investigational product, TEAEs causing study discontinuation, serious AEs and death will 
also be presented. 
The CSHQ will also be summarized using appropriate descriptive statistics.  
Sleep diary data will be descriptively summarized.
A summary and listing of the C-SSRS data will be provided for subjects with a positive response only. 
Data Monitoring Committee
An external independent Data Monitoring Committee (DMC) was set up to review the data pertaining to safety, 
tolerability, and benefit/harm of the study therapy for the duration of this Pediatric Written Request program, 
which includes studies SPD489-211, SPD489-347, and SPD489-348. The same DMC will evaluate the efficacy 
analysis results and supportive safety summaries to determine if the interim efficacy criteria are met for this 
study. Confidentiality of the unblinded DMC analyses is a critical concern, and to address this, an un-blinded 
independent reporting team will be identified within a CRO. The independent reporting team will have no 
involvement in the conduct of the study.
Sample Size Re-estimation
In order to have sufficient study power to detect a clinically meaningful treatment effect for the primary efficacy 
endpoint, a blinded sample size re-estimation is planned as described in the section “Number of Subjects”.

BACKGROUND INFORMATION
Lisdexamfetamine dimesylate capsules (SPD489, previously referred to as NRP104) were 
developed for the once-daily treatment of attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).
SPD489 capsules contain 5, 10, 20, or 30 mg of lisdexamfetamine dimesylate, a new chemical 
entity designed for once-daily oral administration. Lisdexamfetamine itself is a 
pharmacologically inactive prodrug. After ingestion it is converted to l-lysine (a naturally 
occurring essential amino acid) and dextroamphetamine (d-amphetamine, responsible for 
pharmacological activity) primarily in the blood.
Amphetamine is a chiral compound that exists as 2 stereoisomers: d- and levo (l)-amphetamine. 
Lisdexamfetamine is the l-lysine conjugate of the dextro stereoisomer. After oral administration, 
lisdexamfetamine is rapidly absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract and converted primarily in 
the blood to l-lysine (a naturally occurring amino acid) and d-amphetamine, which is responsible 
for the drug’s pharmacological activity.
Lisdexamfetamine is classified as a psychomotor stimulant.
Amphetamine appears to exert its pharmacological effects in the central nervous system (CNS) 
by increasing the availability of naturally occurring amines that have important functions in 
nerve terminals. Amphetamine increases synaptic levels of dopamine, norepinephrine, and 
serotonin through multiple mechanisms (Hardman et al. 2001). It promotes the release of 
dopamine, norepinephrine, and serotonin into the extraneuronal space, and also inhibits the 
reuptake of dopamine and norepinephrine into the pre-synaptic nerve terminal resulting in 
prolonged residency of these neurotransmitters in the synaptic cleft. In addition to producing a 
CNS response, amphetamine treatment is also associated with cardiovascular effects such as an 
increase in systolic blood pressure and diastolic blood pressure, and pulse. Amphetamine may 
also suppress the appetite.
In addition to the approved indication of ADHD, other indications have been explored.
Additional information can be found in the current investigator's brochure (IB) for SPD489.
1.1
Indication and Current Treatment Options 
Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder is a heterogeneous neurobehavioral disorder 
characterised by a pattern of developmentally inappropriate inattentiveness, impulsivity, and 
hyperactivity resulting in clinically significant impairment in social, academic, or occupational 
functioning. Although ADHD was originally thought to be a disorder primarily affecting 
elementary school age children; it is now recognized that ADHD may persist across a lifetime, 
and that ADHD symptoms may manifest several years prior to entry into elementary school.  
While there are hundreds of studies investigating the treatment of ADHD in school-age children, 
there are very few studies exploring the treatment of ADHD in preschoolers. Although 
diagnosing ADHD in a preschool child can be challenging, reliable diagnostic tools and 
age-appropriate assessments are available, and it is therefore possible to conduct scientifically

rigorous ADHD studies in this population. It would be beneficial to provide additional 
evidence-based support for ADHD treatment decisions in the preschool population.  
Estimates of the prevalence of ADHD in the preschool population vary depending on the referral 
source and the method used to diagnose ADHD; however it appears that approximately 4-5% of 
preschool children are considered to have ADHD. Using the Preschool-age Psychiatric 
Assessment, an assessment validated for use in the preschool population, the prevalence of 
ADHD in a sample of 1,073 children aged 2-5 years was reported to be 3.9-5.1% (Egger et al. 
2006a; Egger and Angold 2004; Greenhill et al. 2008). In 2007, the National Survey of 
Children’s Health obtained information from parents of 73,123 children aged 4-17 years (Centers 
for Disease Control and Prevention 2010). Parents reported a current diagnosis of ADHD in 
5.5% of 4- to 10-year-olds (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention 2010). Some reports 
utilizing a clinic-based sampling frame (versus a community based - sampling frame) report the 
prevalence in males aged 4-11 is roughly 3 times greater than in females (Szatmari et al. 1989). 
There is acknowledgment, however, that males present with more disruptive symptoms and are 
referred for treatment earlier and more often than girls (Hinshaw 2002), so clinic samples are not 
likely to represent an accurate reflection of the gender distribution of ADHD.
Genetic studies indicate that ADHD has high heritability rates (Faraone and Biederman 1998; 
Tannock 1998) with an autosomal rather than sex-linked inheritance pattern (Wallis et al. 2008; 
Thapar 2002) supporting the gender-based prevalence ratios of 1:1 in the community which is 
consistent with the reported 1:1 male:female prevalence of ADHD in adults.  
Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder is characterized by symptoms of inattention, 
hyperactivity, and impulsivity that are “maladaptive and inconsistent with developmental level” 
(Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders [DSM-IV]). Preschool children, ages 
3-5 years, often exhibit symptoms of hyperactivity and impulsivity, so it may be challenging to 
delineate what is “inconsistent with developmental level” for this population (Smith and Corkum 
2007). Nevertheless, it is possible to diagnose ADHD in the preschool population in a reliable 
fashion (Egger et al. 2006a; Egger et al. 2006b; McGoey et al. 2007).
The presence of ADHD symptoms that are frequent, severe, and developmentally inappropriate 
can be used to define ADHD in this population (Connor 2002; Smith and Corkum 2007). In 
addition, impairment in 2 or more settings establishes that the constellation of ADHD symptoms 
is maladaptive and not confined to a specific environment. The severity of ADHD symptoms in a 
preschool child can be reliably measured using scales such as the Preschool-age Psychiatric 
Assessment and the ADHD-Rating Scale-IV Preschool Version (ADHD-RS-IV Preschool 
Version) that have been validated for this population and include age-appropriate questions and 
prompts (Egger et al. 2006a; McGoey et al. 2007).  
It is appropriate to consider whether an ADHD diagnosis in a preschool child will endure or 
resolve as the child matures. ADHD has been described in terms of a developmental trajectory 
that can be modified by biologic or environmental factors (Sonuga-Barke and Halperin 2010; 
Sonuga-Barke et al. 2005). Potential risk factors such as severity of ADHD symptoms, the 
presence of oppositional defiant symptoms, and neuropsychological impairment may affect the 
course of ADHD (Sonuga-Barke and Halperin 2010).

Although some children may not retain the ADHD diagnosis as they grow older, for many 
children the diagnosis endures beyond their preschool years (Lahey et al. 2004; Tandon et al. 
2011). In a sample of 96 children aged 4-6 years with ADHD, 79% of the children continued to 
have an ADHD diagnosis 3 years later as compared to 3% of the non-ADHD control children 
(Lahey et al. 2004). This finding was replicated in a sample of 48 children aged 4-6 years with 
ADHD who were followed for 2 years (Tandon et al. 2011). These results suggest that when an 
ADHD diagnosis is first made in a preschool child, it is likely to be stable over time. 
The constellation of impairments associated with an ADHD diagnosis in preschool children 
suggests a characteristic profile similar to that for individuals diagnosed after the preschool 
period. Preschool children with ADHD demonstrate impairments in social functioning and 
pre-academic skills (DuPaul et al. 2001; Ghuman et al. 2008). They are also more likely to be 
aggressive towards others and to sustain an injury (Greenhill et al. 2008; Rappley et al. 1999). In 
a longitudinal study which followed children aged 4-21 years, the attention span at age 4 years 
predicted math and reading skills at age 21 years and completion of college at age 25 years 
(McClelland et al. 2013).
Currently, the lack of a robust body of evidence derived from controlled clinical studies in 
preschool children makes it difficult to create reliable treatment recommendations. The 
American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) ADHD Clinical Practice guideline suggests that 
preschool children with ADHD initiate treatment with behavioral therapy prior to using 
pharmacotherapy (Subcommitte on ADHD et al. 2011); however the Preschool ADHD 
Treatment Study results indicates that only 13% of preschool children have a satisfactory 
response to behavioral therapy (Greenhill et al. 2006). If the preschool child with ADHD does 
not respond to behavioral therapy, the guideline then suggests the use of methylphenidate. Of 
note, methylphenidate does not have an indication for a population less than 6 years old 
(Subcommitte on ADHD et al. 2011). Immediate-release ADDERALL (dextroamphetamine 
saccharate, amphetamine aspartate, dextroamphetamine sulfate, and amphetamine sulfate) and 
dextroamphetamine are approved for children with ADHD as young as 3 years old. As a result, if 
a preschool child does not respond to methylphenidate, a trial of an amphetamine product is 
recommended by the AAP. However, the lack of data for amphetamines in preschool children 
with ADHD is acknowledged. Therefore the implementation of additional studies in preschool 
children with ADHD would provide additional evidence in order to inform treatment decisions.

Always refer to the latest version of the SPD489 IB for the most accurate and current 
information regarding the efficacy and safety of SPD489.
1.2.1
Preclinical Information
Lisdexamfetamine is a pharmacologically inactive prodrug. After ingestion, it is converted in the 
blood to d-amphetamine (responsible for pharmacological activity) and l-lysine (a naturally 
occurring essential amino acid). A comprehensive set of studies has been conducted to evaluate 
the pharmacological and toxicological properties associated with the parent compound 
lisdexamfetamine. The safety profiles associated with d-amphetamine and l-lysine are well 
established.
All safety and toxicology studies, except the single-dose acute toxicity study in rats, were 
conducted in compliance with Good Laboratory Practice.
Complete preclinical information is presented in the current SPD489 IB.
1.2.2
Clinical Information
The pharmacological profile of lisdexamfetamine and the pharmacologically active metabolite 
d-amphetamine have been well-characterized in studies enrolling children, healthy adults, and 
adults with a history of stimulant abuse. These studies have demonstrated that oral administration 
of SPD489 resulted in a predictable d-amphetamine pharmacokinetic profile with low 
intrasubject and intersubject variability. The d-amphetamine AUC0-and Cmax generally behaved 
in a linear, dose-proportional manner. The weight-normalized d-amphetamine AUC0-is similar 
for children and adults, with tmax and t½ consistent across age groups.
In the ADHD Clinical Development Program, the efficacy of SPD489 for the treatment of 
ADHD has been demonstrated for children, adolescents, and adults with ADHD. Substantial 
evidence of efficacy was provided in well-controlled studies, where SPD489 was shown to be 
effective compared to placebo. SPD489 was associated with a statistically significant, clinically 
meaningful improvement in ADHD symptoms, functional outcomes, and health-related quality 
of life compared to placebo, in studies that used a variety of study designs, a variety of validated 
assessments, and a variety of raters.
The well-characterized SPD489 safety profile was consistent with that of other stimulants used 
in the treatment of ADHD. When the safety results from the 15 completed Phase 2-4 clinical 
studies in the ADHD Clinical Development Program were examined, the majority of TEAEs 
were mild or moderate in severity, and no differences due to age or sex were noted. The most 
frequently reported adverse events (AEs) were those typically associated with stimulant therapy 
(including decreased appetite, insomnia, headache, dry mouth, irritability, upper abdominal pain, 
and weight decrease), or potentially attributable to intercurrent illnesses (eg, upper respiratory 
tract infection and nasopharyngitis). These TEAEs were generally non-serious and were 
considered by the investigator to be resolved during study participation.
Stimulant medications like SPD489 cause a modest increase in average blood pressure (about 
2-4 mmHg) and average pulse (about 3-6 bpm). Individuals may have larger increases.

STUDY OBJECTIVES AND PURPOSE
2.1
Rationale for the Study
Based on IMS Health data and discussion at the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Pediatric 
Advisory Committee in September 2012 (Mistry and Chai 2012), it has been noted that there is 
off-label use of SPD489 in children under 5 years old (4%, or approximately 100,000 patients 
between February 2007 and March 2012). The lack of controlled data regarding the safety and 
efficacy of SPD489 in the preschool ADHD population, in concert with the prevalence of 
off-label prescribing of SPD489 supports the need for SPD489 studies in the preschool ADHD 
population. Importantly, it is not known if the therapeutic effects of stimulant medications in 
school age children with ADHD can be extrapolated to preschool children with ADHD. There 
are some indications that the effect size may be reduced (Greenhill et al. 2006). There may also 
be differences in the safety and pharmacokinetic profiles (Wigal et al. 2007; Wigal et al. 2006).
However, recent data from Shire SPD489-211 study preschool aged children with ADHD
suggests the safety and tolerability profile of SHP489 is similar to that observed in trials with 
children 6 to 12 years old, adolescents and adults. The efficacy results of the SPD489-211 study, 
were also comparable to older subjects and revealed a mean decrease from baseline of  -26.1 
(95% CI: -32.2, -20.0) in the ADHD-RS-IV Preschool Version total score, suggesting a robust
similar improvement in ADHD symptoms. 
In summary given the abundance of information regarding the safety and efficacy of 
amphetamines; the very well-established PK profile of SPD489; the similar efficacy and safety 
findings between populations with ADHD covering the age span from 6 to 55 years; and the PK, 
safety, and efficacy data from Study SPD489-211 in preschoolers (aged 4-5 years) with ADHD, 
it is expected that findings from previous trials in older age groups can be extrapolated to 
preschool patients with ADHD.

STUDY DESIGN
3.1
Study Design and Flow Chart
Approximately 245 subjects will be screened to randomize approximately 195 subjects in a 
5:5:5:5:6 ratio to SPD489 5, 10, 20, 30 mg dose strength or placebo to achieve 156 completers 
for this Phase 3 double-blind, placebo-controlled, fixed-dose study to evaluate the efficacy of 
SPD489 10, 20, and 30 mg pooled together compared to placebo, administered as a daily 
morning dose in the treatment of preschool children 4-5 years of age with ADHD. 
Approximately 25% of the subjects enrolled will be female, consistent with the literature-defined 
gender distribution in ADHD clinic samples (Szatmari et al. 1989; Wallis et al. 2008; Thapar 
2002).
A randomized fixed-dose design is used to avoid baseline characteristics selection bias for 
different treatment groups on the part of the participants and investigators. Blinded treatment is 
used to reduce potential bias during data collection and evaluation of clinical results. The 
placebo arm is used to control the subject’s expectation that a treatment would have an effect, to 
optimize sensitivity, to maintain the scientific rigor of the study, and to validate the study 
internally.
The study will have 4 periods as outlined below and in Figure 2:
(1) Screening and Washout
(2) Fixed-dose titration
(3) Dose-maintenance
(4) Safety Follow-up.
The duration of the double-blind evaluation period (Fixed-dose titration and Dose-maintenance 
Periods) will be 6 weeks. 
SPD489 will be provided in dose strengths of 5, 10, 20, and 30 mg. Matching placebo will also 
be provided.

4.4.1
Management of Blood Pressure and Pulse During the Study
Potential blood pressure and pulse increases must be further evaluated if they meet any of the 
criteria defined in Sections 4.4.1.1 and 4.4.1.2. 
4.4.1.1
Systolic and Diastolic Blood Pressure
Blood pressure criteria for further evaluation have been developed based on the normative data 
presented in the National Institutes of Health Fourth Report on the Diagnosis, Evaluation, and 
Treatment of High Blood Pressure in Children and Adolescents (2004). 
Increases in blood pressure (both systolic and diastolic) from the 50th to the 95th percentile 
(representative of a change of 2 standard deviations) range from 17-20 mmHg for both boys and 
girls in this age range. Based on this range, an increase of >15 mmHg from the baseline visit 
(Visit 0) was selected for this protocol. 
Prior to obtaining vital signs (blood pressure and pulse) the subject should be at rest for at least 
5 minutes. 
If any subject’s blood pressure measurements meet either criterion below, the investigator will 
notify the medical monitor.  If any subject’s blood pressure measurements meet either criterion 
below on 3 consecutive visits, the subject should be considered for potential discontinuation 
based upon the clinical judgment of the investigator and in conjunction with the medical 
monitor. 

Elevations in the average (of 3 readings) sitting systolic blood pressure defined as an increase 
of >15 mmHg from the baseline visit (Visit 0) OR a value >95th percentile for age, sex, and 
height 

Elevations in average (of 3 readings) sitting diastolic blood pressure defined as an increase of 
>15 mmHg from the baseline visit (Visit 0) OR a value >95th percentile for age, sex, and 
height 
4.4.1.2
Pulse
The resting pulse rate criterion for further evaluation has been defined based on the normative 
data presented in the National Health Statistics Report’s “Resting Pulse Rate Reference Data for 
Children, Adolescents, and Adults: United States, 1999-2008” (Ostchega et al. 2011). 
Any subject that has a resting, sitting pulse rate >126 bpm (based on the average of 3 readings)
and or is symptomatic requires further assessment. In this case an unscheduled visit needs to be 
conducted within 1 business day. At the unscheduled visit, if the subject’s pulse rate remains 
>126 bpm (based on the average of 3 readings) or if the subject is symptomatic then the subject’s 
investigator will discuss the findings with the medical monitor. A joint decision between the 
investigator and the medical monitor will be made regarding continued participation in the study. 
If a visit cannot be scheduled the next day, the subject may be discontinued from the study.

Reasons for Discontinuation
The reason for withdrawal must be determined by the investigator and recorded in the subject’s 
medical record and on the CRF. If a subject is withdrawn for more than 1 reason, each reason 
should be documented in the source document and the most clinically relevant reason should be 
entered on the CRF.
Reasons for discontinuation include but are not limited to:

Adverse event

Protocol violation

Withdrawal by subject or parent(s)/LAR

Lost to follow-up

Lack of efficacy

Blood pressure and/or pulse criteria met

Other. If “Other” is selected, the investigator must specify on the CRF
4.4.3
Subjects “Lost to Follow-up” Prior to Last Scheduled Visit
A minimum of 3 documented attempts must be made to contact any subject or parent/LAR in the 
event that any subject is lost to follow-up at any time point prior to the last scheduled contact 
(office visit or telephone contact). At least 1 of these documented attempts must include a written 
communication sent to the subject’s last known address via courier or mail (with an 
acknowledgement of receipt request) asking that they return to the site for final safety 
evaluations and return any unused investigational product.

Administration of Investigational Product(s)
6.2.1
Interactive Response Technology for Investigational Product Management
An IWRS will be employed in this study to manage the tracking and confirmation of shipments, 
supply, inventory, ordering, expiration, site assignments, and dosing of the investigational 
products.
The IWRS provider will provide a user manual and training to each site, with detailed instruction 
on the use of the IWRS.
6.2.2
Allocation of Subjects to Treatment
This is a randomized, double-blind, fixed-dose, placebo-controlled study. The actual treatment 
given to individual subjects is determined by a randomization schedule. Subjects will be 
randomized in a 5:5:5:5:6 ratio to SPD489 5, 10, 20, 30 mg or placebo.  
Subject numbers are assigned to all subjects as they consent to take part in the study. Within each 
site (numbered uniquely within a protocol), the subject number is assigned to subjects according 
to the sequence of presentation for study participation.
The randomization number represents a unique number corresponding to investigational product 
allocated to the subject, once eligibility has been determined.
Individual subject treatment is automatically assigned by the interactive web response system
(IWRS).
If a randomization number/unique identifier is allocated incorrectly, the clinical research 
associate (CRA)/study monitor must be notified as soon as the error is discovered.
Investigational product packaging identification numbers, separate from randomization numbers, 
may also be assigned to subjects for specific treatment assignment as dictated by the study. In 
these cases, the same investigational product packing identification number may not be assigned 
to more than 1 subject.
6.2.3
Dosing
Dosing should begin at approximately 7:00AM (±2 hours) on the morning after the baseline visit 
(Visit 0). Subjects will be instructed to take 1 capsule daily in the morning throughout the study, 
at approximately the same time each day. The same parent/LAR should be available daily to 
dispense the dose of investigational product for the study duration.
SPD489 may be administered in one of the following ways:

Swallow SPD489 capsule whole, or

Open capsule, empty and mix the entire contents with yogurt, water, or orange juice.

Shire
CONFIDENTIAL
Page 42
Protocol Amendment 3
SPD489-347

The contents should be mixed until completely dispersed. The subject must ingest the entire 
amount of the mixture immediately within 3 minutes. The subject should not take anything less 
than one capsule per day and a single capsule cannot be split. The empty gelatinous capsule 
should be discarded into a trash receptacle by the parent/LAR.
Subjects will begin dosing with the lowest strength of SPD489 (5 mg) and will be titrated until 
the randomly assigned fixed-dose is reached.
Once subjects reach the fixed-dose level, this dose will be maintained until the end of the study. 
No dose reductions are permitted during the study. Subjects who are unable to tolerate 
investigational product will be discontinued.
6.2.4
Unblinding the Treatment Assignment
The treatment assignment must not be broken during the study except in emergency situations 
where the identification of the investigational product is required for further treatment of the 
subject. The investigator should contact the medical monitor as soon as possible after the 
investigator has been unblinded.  
In the event that the treatment assignment is broken, the date, the signature of the person who 
broke the code, and the reason for breaking the code, are recorded in IWRS and the source 
documents. Upon breaking the blind, the subject is withdrawn from the study, but should be 
followed up for safety purposes. Any code-breaks that occur must be reported to the contract 
research organization (CRO) and sponsor. Code-break information is held by the 
pharmacist/designated person at the site and by the CRO medical monitor for the study or 
designee.
6.3
Labeling, Packaging, Storage, and Handling
6.3.1
Labeling
Labels containing study information and pack identification are applied to the investigational 
product(s) container. 
All investigational product is labeled with a minimum of the protocol number, medication 
identification number (if applicable), dosage form (including product name and quantity in 
pack), directions for use, storage conditions, expiry date (if applicable), batch number and/or 
packaging reference, the statements “For clinical trial use only”, and/or “CAUTION: New Drug 
- Limited by Federal (or United States [US]) Law to Investigational Use”, “Keep out of reach of 
children”, and the sponsor's name and address. Any additional labeling requirements for 
participating countries and/or controlled substances will also be included on the label.
Space is allocated on the label so that the site representative can record a unique subject 
identifier and initials. 

Shire
CONFIDENTIAL

Protocol Amendment 3
SPD489-347
04 Aug 2017
Additional labels (eg, those used when dispensing marketed product) may, on a case-by-case 
basis, be applied to the investigational product in order to satisfy local or institutional 
requirements, but must not:

Contradict the clinical study label

Obscure the clinical study label

Identify the study subject by name.
Additional labels may not be added without the sponsor’s prior full agreement.
6.3.2
Packaging
Investigational product is packaged in the following labeled containers:
SPD489 capsules are packaged in 10-count high density polyethylene bottles with child-resistant 
closures. Each bottle contains a desiccant.
Changes to sponsor-supplied packaging prior to dosing may not occur without full agreement in 
advance by the sponsor.
6.3.3
Storage
The investigator has overall responsibility for ensuring that investigational product is stored in a 
secure, limited-access location. Limited responsibility may be delegated to the pharmacy or 
member of the study team, but this delegation must be documented. Investigational products are 
distributed by the pharmacy or nominated member of the study team. The pharmacist/nominated 
team member will enter the unique subject identifier and initials on the investigational product 
bottle/carton labels as they are distributed.
Investigational product must be stored in accordance with labeled storage conditions. 
Temperature monitoring is required at the storage location to ensure that the investigational 
product is maintained within an established temperature range. The investigator is responsible 
for ensuring that the temperature is monitored throughout the duration of the study and that 
records are maintained; the temperature should be monitored continuously by using either an 
in-house system, a mechanical recording device such as a calibrated chart recorder, or by manual 
means, such that both minimum and maximum thermometric values over a specific time period 
can be recorded and retrieved as required. Such a device (ie, certified min/max thermometer) 
would require manual resetting upon each recording. The sponsor must be notified immediately 
upon discovery of any excursion from the established range. Temperature excursions will require 
site investigation as to cause and remediation. The sponsor will determine the ultimate impact of 
excursions on the investigational product and will provide supportive documentation as 
necessary. Under no circumstances should the product be dispensed to subjects until the impact 
has been determined and the product is deemed appropriate for use by the sponsor.
The sponsor should be notified immediately if there are any changes to the storage area of the 
investigational product that could affect the integrity of the product(s), eg, fumigation of a 
storage room.

All controlled-substance investigational product for the sponsor’s studies must be stored in a 
securely locked, substantially constructed room or cabinet according to all applicable local, state, 
and/or national laws. Limited, controlled access to these investigational products must be 
maintained, as well as chain of custody, for all investigational product movement.
6.4
Drug Accountability
Investigators will be provided with sufficient amounts of the investigational product to carry out 
this protocol for the agreed number of subjects. The investigator or designee will acknowledge 
receipt of the investigational product, documenting shipment content and condition. Accurate 
records of all investigational product dispensed, used, returned, and/or destroyed must be 
maintained as detailed further in this section.
The investigator has overall responsibility for administering/dispensing investigational product. 
Where permissible, tasks may be delegated to a qualified designee (eg, a pharmacist) who is 
adequately trained in the protocol and who works under the direct supervision of the investigator. 
This delegation must be documented in the applicable study delegation of authority form.
The investigator or his/her designee (as documented by the investigator in the applicable study 
delegation of authority form) will dispense the investigational product only to subjects included 
in this study following the procedures set out in the study protocol. Each subject will be given 
only the investigational product carrying his/her treatment assignment. All dispensed medication 
will be documented on the CRFs and/or other investigational product record. The investigator is 
responsible for assuring the retrieval of all study supplies from subjects.
No investigational product stock or returned inventory from a Shire-sponsored study may be 
removed from the site where originally shipped without prior knowledge and consent by the 
sponsor. If such transfer is authorized by the sponsor, all applicable local, state, and national 
laws must be adhered to for the transfer.
The sponsor or its representatives must be permitted access to review the supplies storage and 
distribution procedures and records provided that the blind of the study is not compromised.
At the end of the study, or as instructed by the sponsor, all unused stock, subject-returned 
investigational product, and empty/used investigational product packaging are to be sent to a 
nominated contractor on behalf of the sponsor. Investigational products being returned to the 
sponsor’s designated contractors must be counted and verified by clinical site personnel and the 
sponsor (or designated CRO). For unused supplies where the original supplied tamper-evident 
feature is verified as intact, the tamper-evident feature must not be broken and the labeled 
amount is to be documented in lieu of counting. Shipment return forms, when used, must be 
signed prior to shipment from the site. Validated electronic return systems (ie, IRT) do not 
require a shipment form. Returned investigational products must be packed in a tamper-evident 
manner to ensure product integrity. Contact the sponsor for authorization to return any 
investigational product prior to shipment. Shipment of all returned investigational product must 
comply with local, state, and national laws.

Based on entries in the site drug accountability forms, it must be possible to reconcile 
investigational products delivered with those used and returned. All investigational products 
must be accounted for and all discrepancies investigated and documented to the sponsor’s 
satisfaction.
6.5
Subject Compliance
Subjects must be instructed to bring their unused investigational product and empty/used 
investigational product packaging to every visit. Drug accountability must be assessed at the 
container/packaging level for unused investigational product that is contained within the original 
tamper-evident sealed container (eg, bottles, trays, vials) or at the individual count level for 
opened containers/packaging. The pharmacist/delegated person will record details on the drug 
accountability form.
Subjects who have taken 80-100% of the investigational product are regarded as being compliant 
with the study protocol. Compliance must be assessed by the investigator.
The calculation of medication compliance is as follows:

There must also be documentation of assent (if required by Institutional Review Board [IRB]), 
indicating that the subject is aware of the investigational nature of the study and the required 
procedures and restrictions, prior to the performance of any study-related procedures.
A washout period may be required to discontinue any prohibited medication (Table 2). A subject 
cannot be instructed to washout any medication for this study until after informed consent is 
obtained.
Screening procedures may take place across multiple days to allow enough time to complete all 
procedures and confirm initial subject eligibility. Screening procedures and dates should be well 
documented in the source documents and CRF. The date of the screening visit (Visit -1) is the 
date the parent(s)/LAR and/or subject has signed informed consent for this study.
A screen failure is a subject who has given informed consent and failed to meet any of the 
inclusion and/or met at least 1 of the exclusion criteria and has not been randomized or 
administered investigational product(s).
For screen failure subjects, the investigator or assigned site staff designee will access the IWRS 
to record the subject as a screen failure.
Subjects cannot be rescreened once they have been designated as a screen failure. Reassessment 
of subjects who failed specific inclusion/exclusion criteria is not allowed.
7.1.1.1
Screening Visit (Visit -1)
Subjects will be screened at Visit -1 to establish eligibility for study participation. 
Table 1 details all procedures to be completed at the screening visit (Visit -1). Additional 
clarification on the procedures performed during the screening visit (Visit -1) is provided below:

Eligibility will be established per inclusion and exclusion criteria, including documentation 
of any prior non-pharmacological treatment and specified ADHD and CGI-S severity criteria. 
Areas of impairment will be recorded for all subjects for assessing the severity of the 
subject’s condition.

All AEs occurring after signature of informed consent must be recorded in the source 
documents and CRF.

Twelve-lead ECG will be performed after 5 minutes of rest. The investigator will perform the 
initial interpretation of the ECG immediately after collection to ensure the safety of each 
subject. The ECG tracing will be sent to the central reader for analysis. Upon review of the 
report from the central reader, the investigator will re-evaluate the clinical significance of the 
ECG in light of other safety data for the subject. If abnormal and significant results are 
observed following assessment by the central reader, the investigator, in consultation with the 
appointed CRO medical monitor, will confirm the subject’s eligibility to participate in this 
study.

Blood pressure and pulse will be collected after 5 minutes of rest 3 times (with at least 
2 minutes in between each collection) using a manual cuff during the visit.

7.1.1.2
Other Medications Used During the 30 Days Prior to the Screening Visit 
(Visit -1) Washout Telephone Call
The Washout Period should be initiated after clinical laboratory test results and 12-lead ECG 
results have been received and reviewed by the investigator. Eligible subjects will be contacted 
by a member of the site staff and provided with instructions on discontinuing any 
protocol-prohibited medications. During washout, a subject’s current prohibited medications (if 
applicable) will be discontinued for a period of a minimum of 5 times the half-life of the 
medication. Washout periods for prohibited medications are defined in Table 2. 
As part of the Washout Telephone Call, site personnel should perform the following procedures:

Schedule the baseline visit (Visit 0)

Review the inclusion/exclusion criteria

Ask about any concomitant medications that the subject is taking. If new concomitant 
medications that require washout are noted, instructions for appropriate washout should be 
provided.

Provide instructions on discontinuing any medication requiring washout.

Determine if any AEs have occurred since the screening visit (Visit -1).
If a medication washout is not necessary, the Washout Telephone Call will include all the above 
procedures except providing instructions on discontinuing any current medications.
7.1.1.3
Baseline Visit (Visit 0)
Once the screening central clinical laboratory tests and 12-lead ECG results have been obtained, 
in addition to repeat assessments (if required), and the subject has completed the required 
washout period (if applicable), the subject will return to the site for the baseline visit (Visit 0).

clarification provided below:

For subjects with more than 30 days since the safety measurements at the screening visit 
(Visit -1) were collected, an abbreviated physical examination, clinical laboratory tests, and 
12-lead ECG must be repeated, and the results reviewed by the investigator prior to the 
subject being enrolled.

After 5 minutes rest, blood pressure, and pulse will be collected 3 times (with at least 
2 minutes in between each collection) during the visit. The average of each set of 
3 measurements will be used to determine continued participation in the study (see 
Section 4.4.1).

Three ECGs will be taken, with approximately 5 minutes in between each one, to ensure 
appropriate baseline intervals are established. The investigator will perform the initial 
interpretation of the ECG immediately after collection to ensure the safety of each subject to 
continue with the study. The ECG tracing will be sent to the central reader for analysis. Upon 
review of the report from the central reader, the investigator will re-evaluate the clinical 
significance of the ECG in light of other safety data for the subject. If abnormal and 
significant results are observed following assessment by the central reader, the investigator, 
in consultation with the appointed CRO medical monitor, will confirm the subject’s 
continued participation in this study.  

The C-SSRS “Since Last Visit” Version of the Pediatric/Cognitively Impaired Version 
should be completed.

Screening Assessments
7.2.2.1
Kiddie–Schedule for Affective Disorders and Schizophrenia for 
School-age Children–Present and Lifetime Version–Diagnostic Interview
The sponsor-approved clinician at the site who is trained and experienced in the evaluation 
of 4- to 5-year-old children with ADHD, will determine a diagnosis of ADHD based on a 
psychiatric interview and mental status examination utilizing the Kiddie–Schedule for 
Affective Disorders and Schizophrenia for School-age Children–Present and Lifetime 
Version-Diagnostic Interview (K-SADS-PL) using the DSM-IV-TR criteria for ADHD.
The K-SADS-PL is a semistructured diagnostic interview designed to assess current and past 
episodes of psychopathology in children and adolescents according to Diagnostic and Statistical 
Manual of Mental Disorders, Third Edition-Revised and DSM-IV-TR criteria. Probes and 
objective criteria are provided to rate individual symptoms. The primary diagnoses assessed with 
the K-SADS-PL include, but are not limited to: major depression, dysthymia, mania, bipolar 
disorders, schizoaffective disorders, panic disorder, agoraphobia, separation anxiety disorder, 
avoidant disorder of childhood and adolescence, simple phobia, social phobia, overanxious 
disorder, generalized anxiety, obsessive compulsive disorder, ADHD, conduct disorder, and 
oppositional defiant disorder.
The K-SADS-PL is administered by interviewing the parent(s)/LAR(s), the subject, and finally 
achieving summary ratings, which include all sources of information (parent[s]/LAR, child, 
school, chart, and other). 
The K-SADS-PL will be administered by an individual experienced with the scale and 
qualified to establish a diagnosis. The site should maintain documentation of the 
K-SADS-PL training in the site’s files. All individuals performing this assessment must be 
pre-approved by the sponsor or delegated vendor. Based on the above criteria, suitable 
K-SADS-PL administrators may include physicians, nurse practitioners, or licensed 
psychologists.
7.2.2.2
Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test
The Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test, Third Edition, measures an individual's receptive 
(hearing) vocabulary for Standard American English and provides a quick estimate of verbal 
ability or scholastic aptitude (Dunn and Dunn 1997). For purposes of this study, the Peabody 
Picture Vocabulary Test will be used as a proxy for general cognitive ability. 
The Peabody Picture Vocabulary Test, Third Edition, should be administered by someone with 
general knowledge of psychological testing. All individuals performing this assessment must be 
pre-approved by the Sponsor or designee.

(DuPaul et al. 1998) and provides examples appropriate for the developmental level of 
preschool children. The ADHD-RS-IV Preschool Version is an 18-item questionnaire that 
requires the respondent to rate the frequency of occurrence of ADHD symptoms as defined by 
DSM-IV-TR criteria. Each item is scored on a 4-point scale ranging from 0 (never or rarely) 
to 3 (very often) with total scores ranging from 0-54. The 18 items may be grouped into 
2 subscales: hyperactivity/impulsivity (even numbered items 2-18) and inattentiveness (odd 
numbered items 1-17).
The ADHD-RS-IV Preschool Version should be completed by a clinician trained and 
experienced in the evaluation of preschool children with ADHD. Since the ADHD-RS-IV 
Preschool Version is used to guide dosing decisions, if it is not completed by the principal 
investigator or subinvestigator who is medically/clinically responsible for the subject, it must be 
reviewed and signed by them. All individuals performing this assessment must be pre-approved 
by the sponsor or designee.
The title, version, and date of the ADHD-RS-IV Preschool Version used in this study are 
included in Appendix 3.
7.2.3.2
Clinical Global Impressions
The Clinical Global Impressions (CGI) Scale (Guy 1976) permits a global evaluation of the 
subject’s severity and improvement over time. The CGI has been used extensively in clinical 
studies of ADHD (Michelson et al. 2001; Weiss et al. 2005; Wilens et al. 2001).
The investigator will perform the CGI-S to rate the severity of a subject’s condition on a 7-point 
scale ranging from 1 (normal, not at all ill) to 7 (among the most extremely ill subjects) at the 
baseline visit (Visit 0). Additionally, at the baseline visit (Visit 0), the investigator should 
establish 3 target areas of improvement with the subject and the subject’s parent(s)/LAR. To 
generate the targets, an open-ended question such as, “If this program of treatment works for 
your child, what things do you hope he/she will be doing better?” should be asked. Ratings will 
be completed with respect to ADHD symptoms.
At each visit from Visit 1 up to and including Visit 6/ET, the investigator will assess the 
subject’s overall improvement relative to the 3 target areas of improvement recorded at the 
baseline visit (Visit 0), on the CGI-I, a 7-point scale ranging from 1 (very much improved) to 
7 (very much worse).

The CGI-S and CGI-I should be completed by a clinician trained and experienced in the 
evaluation of preschool children with ADHD. Since the CGI-I is used to guide dosing decisions, 
if it is not completed by the principal investigator or sub-investigator who is medically/clinically 
responsible for the subject, it must be reviewed and signed by them. All individuals performing 
this assessment must be pre-approved by the sponsor or designee.

The name and address of each third party vendor (eg, clinical laboratory) used in this study will 
be maintained in the investigator’s and sponsor’s files.
7.2.4.1
Medical and Medication History
The investigator will perform a complete medical history at the screening visit (Visit -1), 
including a medication history, and record all information gathered. The investigator must record 
all clinically or medically relevant information regardless of how much time has elapsed since 
the date of diagnosis.
With the subject’s parent(s)/LAR’s consent, medical records from other treatment providers 
should be requested.
7.2.4.2
Physical Examination 
A full physical examination will be performed at the screening visit (Visit -1) and Visit 6/ET. 
Additionally, an abbreviated physical examination is required at the baseline visit (Visit 0) if 
>30 days have elapsed since the physical examination completed as part of the screening visit 
(Visit -1) was performed.
A physical examination will be performed by a qualified, licensed individual (eg, physician, 
physician assistant or a nurse practitioner).
A full physical examination is composed of a review of the following body systems:

General appearance

Skin

Head, Eyes, Ears, Nose, and Throat

Spine/Neck/Thyroid

Respiratory

Cardiovascular

Respiratory

Cardiovascular.
Abnormalities identified at the screening visit (Visit -1) will be documented in the subject’s 
source documents and on the medical history CRF. Changes after the screening visit (Visit -1) 
will be captured as AEs on the AE CRF page, as deemed by the investigator.
7.2.4.3
Adverse Event Collection
At each study visit, subjects will be questioned in a general way to ascertain if AEs have 
occurred since the previous visit (ie, “Have you had any health problems since your last 
visit, eg, decreased appetite?”). This information should be collected prior to the 
completion of assessments at all study visits. In addition, any symptoms/conditions reported 
during assessments and deemed to be clinically significant by the investigator will be assessed as 
AEs. 
AEs are collected from the time the informed consent is signed. Please refer to Section 8.
7.2.4.4
Vital Signs
Measurements of oral or tympanic temperature and sitting respiratory rate will be performed at 
the screening visit (Visit -1) and Visit 6/ET only.  
Measurements of sitting systolic and diastolic blood pressure and pulse will be performed at each 
visit to the site. Blood pressure, pulse, and respiratory rate will be determined after subjects have 
remained at rest for a minimum of 5 minutes.
Blood pressure will be determined by manual cuff (the same equipment and the same arm should 
be used throughout the study). A blood pressure cuff appropriate for the subject’s arm length and 
girth should be used for all blood pressure measurements. The cuff should be approximately 
two-thirds the length/width of the subject’s arm (from elbow to shoulder). All blood pressure 
measurements should be performed throughout the study using a manual cuff and should be 
performed by the same study center personnel (if possible) throughout the study. After 5 minutes 
of rest, three measurements should be obtained using the manual cuff with approximately 
2 minutes in between each collection for blood pressure and pulse and report the average of the 
3 measurements for each parameter. The 3 individual measurements and the averaged reading 
should be recorded in the source and CRF.
Any clinically significant deviations from Baseline (Visit 0) vital signs which are deemed 
clinically significant in the opinion of the investigator are to be recorded as an AE.

Height and Weight
Height will be captured at the screening visit (Visit -1) and Visit 6/ET. A calibrated stadiometer 
must be used for all height measurements. Height should be measured in inches or centimeters 
without shoes with the subject standing on a flat surface and with chin parallel to the floor. The 
body should be straight but not rigid.
Weight will be captured at each visit to the site. The same calibrated scale must be used for all 
weight measurements. Weight should be measured in pounds or kilograms without shoes.
7.2.4.6
Clinical Laboratory Evaluations
All clinical laboratory assays will be performed according to the laboratory’s normal procedures. 
Reference ranges are to be supplied by the laboratory and will be used to assess the clinical 
laboratory data for clinical significance and out-of-range pathological changes. The investigator 
should assess out-of-range clinical laboratory values for clinical significance, indicating if the 
value(s) is/are not clinically significant or clinically significant. Abnormal clinical laboratory 
values, which are unexpected or not explained by the subject’s clinical condition, may, at the 
discretion of the investigator or sponsor, be repeated as soon as possible until confirmed, 
explained, or resolved.
Clinical laboratory assessments will be performed at the screening visit (Visit -1) and Visit 6/ET. 
Additionally, clinical laboratory tests are required to be repeated prior to the baseline visit 
(Visit 0) with results reviewed before enrolling the subject in the study if more than 30 days have 
elapsed since the clinical laboratory assessments completed as part of the screening visit 
(Visit -1) were performed. Subjects will have the option of having laboratory assessments 
collected by a qualified home health care professional at their home. The following clinical

Electrocardiogram
A 12-lead ECG will be performed at the screening visit (Visit -1) and every post-baseline visit 
(Visit 1 to Visit 6/ET). Additionally, three ECGs taken approximately 5 minutes apart will be 
collected at the baseline visit (Visit 0). The mean interval values of the 3 ECGs is used to 
establish the subject’s baseline intervals. All ECGs will be performed after 5 minutes of rest 
using the central ECG provider’s equipment and will be sent to the central ECG provider 
electronically.

The initial interpretation of the ECG, normal or abnormal, and clinical significance, will be 
performed immediately after collection by the investigator. The ECG tracing will then be 
evaluated by a cardiologist at the central ECG reading vendor (Cardiocore) for analysis and 
returned to the site with a determination of normal or abnormal. Upon review of the report from 
Cardiocore, the investigator will re-evaluate the clinical significance of the ECG while taking 
into consideration all other safety data available for the subject.
Although a central ECG reader is being used for this study, the eligibility of the subject is based 
on the investigator’s assessment of the ECG. If abnormal and significant results are observed 
following assessment by the central reader, the investigator, in consultation with the appointed 
CRO medical monitor, reconfirms subject eligibility to continue.
All ECGs transmitted to the central ECG reader will be analyzed. If the central ECG reader 
receives multiple ECGs, the first readable ECGs will be analyzed as the scheduled ECG. Every 
ECG transmitted to the central ECG reader will have corresponding CRF data collected. No 
ECG should be deleted by study site personnel. All ECGs must be transmitted to the central 
provider regardless of quality, results, or number of ECGs taken at a respective visit.

Children’s Sleep Habits Questionnaire and Sleep Diary
The Children’s Sleep Habits Questionnaire (CSHQ) is a parent report questionnaire designed to 
screen for the most common sleep problems in children, and consists of 33 items for scoring and 
several extra items intended to provide administrators with other potentially useful information 
about respondents. The instrument evaluates the child’s sleep based on behavior within 8 
different subscales: bedtime resistance, sleep-onset delay, sleep duration, sleep anxiety, night 
wakings, parasomnias, sleep-disordered breathing, and daytime sleepiness. The CSHQ will be 
conducted at each visit to the site starting with the baseline visit (Visit 0) and will be completed 
by the subject’s parent(s)/LAR. 
The subject’s parent(s)/LAR will complete a sleep diary to log daytime napping, bedtime, and 
wake time. 
7.2.4.9
Columbia-Suicide Severity Rating Scale
The C-SSRS (Posner 2007) is a semi-structured interview that captures the occurrence, severity, 
and frequency of suicide-related thoughts and behaviors during the assessment period. The 
interview includes definitions and suggested questions to solicit the type of information needed 
to determine if a suicide-related thought or behavior occurred.
The C-SSRS contains 2 required items pertaining to suicidal ideation, 4 required items pertaining 
to suicidal behavior, and 1 required item pertaining to non-suicidal but self-injurious behavior. In 
situations where there is a positive response to the screening questions, there are 8 additional 
suicidal ideation items and 4 additional suicidal behavior items which are completed. Thus, there 
is a maximum of 19 items to be completed.
The C-SSRS must be performed by an individual who is trained and certified and is preapproved 
by the sponsor or delegated vendor and the site investigator.

Last Visit” version used in this study are included in Appendix 3.
7.2.4.10
Suitability of the Subject to Remain in the Study
At each visit (except for Visit 6/ET) starting with the baseline visit (Visit 0), the investigator will 
assess the subject’s ability to continue in the study. The investigator or a medically qualified 
designee will review all available safety information (including weight and BMI) and will 
evaluate for the presence of decreased appetite potentially leading to weight loss. In cases where 
the subject has clinically significant decrease in appetite, the investigator should intervene as 
necessary based on clinical judgment (eg, diet/behavioral interventions) and consider 
discontinuation of treatment if necessary. In cases where the subject has had ≥7% weight loss 
the investigator must discuss the case with the medical monitor and assess whether it’s in the 
best interest for the subject to remain in the study. 
As part of the assessment of the subject’s suitability to remain in the study the investigator 
should also assess the subject’s current potential for suicide, suicidal ideation, self-harm, or harm 
to others, as well as psychiatric disorders. The investigator should make this assessment by 
conducting a clinical interview with the subject and by reviewing of all other relevant sources 
available, including results of the C-SSRS. Any subject who has 1 or more positive responses 
must undergo further evaluation to ensure that they are not in any way at risk. As part of this 
assessment, if appropriate, the investigator should discuss risk factors for suicide with the 
subject. Where a subject has suffered an accidental injury, the investigator should ensure that this 
was a true accidental injury, rather than an episode of self-harming or a suicide attempt. 
The subject’s source notes should clearly document that the assessment of continued suitability 
including assessment of the subject’s appetite, weight loss and current potential risk of suicide, 
suicidal ideation, feelings of hopelessness, drug use, self-harm, or harm to others has taken place 
and should contain the decision on whether the subject is suitable to continue in the study.

Note: The amount of blood to be drawn for each assessment is an estimate. The amount of blood 
to be drawn may vary according to the instructions provided by the manufacturer or laboratory 
for an individual assessment; however, the total volume drawn over the course of the study 
should be approximately 18 mL. When more than 1 blood assessment is to be done at the 
timepoint/period, if they require the same type of tube, the assessments may be combined. If a 
catheter is used, the first 1 mL of blood from each sampling will be discarded. Biochemistry and 
hematology clinical laboratory tests will be repeated at the baseline visit (Visit 0) if >30 days 
have elapsed since the screening visit (Visit -1).

ADVERSE AND SERIOUS ADVERSE EVENTS ASSESSMENT
8.1
Definition of Adverse Events, Period of Observation, Recording of Adverse Events
An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical investigation subject administered a 
pharmaceutical product and that does not necessarily have a causal relationship with this 
treatment. An AE can therefore be any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal 
laboratory finding), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a medicinal 
(investigational) product, whether or not related to the medicinal (investigational) product (ICH 
Guidance E2A 1995).
All AEs are collected from the time the informed consent is signed until the defined follow-up 
period stated in Section 7.1.3. This includes events occurring during the screening phase of the 
study, regardless of whether or not investigational product is administered. Where possible, a 
diagnosis rather than a list of symptoms should be recorded. If a diagnosis has not been made, 
then each symptom should be listed individually. All AEs should be captured on the appropriate 
AE pages in the CRF and in source documents. In addition to untoward AEs, unexpected 
benefits outside the investigational product indication should also be captured on the AE CRF.
All AEs must be followed to closure (the subject’s health has returned to his/her baseline status 
or all variables have returned to normal), regardless of whether the subject is still participating in 
the study. Closure indicates that an outcome is reached, stabilization achieved (the investigator 
does not expect any further improvement or worsening of the event), or the event is otherwise 
explained. When appropriate, medical tests and examinations are performed so that resolution of
event(s) can be documented.
8.1.1
Severity Categorization
The severity of AEs must be recorded during the course of the event including the start and stop 
dates for each change in severity. An event that changes in severity should be captured as a new 
event. Worsening of pre-treatment events, after initiation of investigational product, must be 
recorded as new AEs (for example, if a subject experiences mild intermittent dyspepsia prior to 
dosing of investigational product, but the dyspepsia becomes severe and more frequent after first 
dose of investigational product has been administered, a new AE of severe dyspepsia [with the 
appropriate date of onset] is recorded on the appropriate CRF).

Shire
CONFIDENTIAL
Page 60
Protocol Amendment 3
SPD489-347
04 Aug 2017
The medical assessment of severity is determined by using the following definitions:
Mild:
A type of AE that is usually transient and may require only minimal treatment or 
therapeutic intervention. The event does not generally interfere with usual 
activities of daily living.
Moderate:
A type of AE that is usually alleviated with specific therapeutic intervention. The 
event interferes with usual activities of daily living, causing discomfort but poses 
no significant or permanent risk of harm to the research subject.
Severe:
A type of AE that interrupts usual activities of daily living, or significantly affects 
clinical status, or may require intensive therapeutic intervention.
8.1.2
Relationship Categorization
A physician/investigator must make the assessment of relationship to investigational product for 
each AE. The investigator should decide whether, in his or her medical judgment, there is a 
reasonable possibility that the event may have been caused by the investigational product. If 
there is no valid reason for suggesting a relationship, then the AE should be classified as “not 
related”. Otherwise, if there is any valid reason, even if undetermined or untested, for suspecting 
a possible cause-and-effect relationship between the investigational product and the occurrence 
of the AE, then the AE should be considered “related”. The causality assessment must be 
documented in the source document.
The following additional guidance may be helpful:
Term
Relationship Definition
Related
The temporal relationship between the event and the administration of the 
investigational product is compelling and/or follows a known or suspected response 
pattern to that product, and the event cannot be explained by the subject’s medical 
condition, other therapies, or accident.
Not Related
The event can be readily explained by other factors such as the subject’s underlying 
medical condition, concomitant therapy, or accident and no plausible temporal or 
biologic relationship exists between the investigational product and the event.
8.1.3
Outcome Categorization
The outcome of AEs must be recorded during the course of the study on the CRF. Outcomes are 
as follows:

Fatal

Not Recovered/Not Resolved

Recovered/Resolved

Recovered/Resolved With Sequelae 

Recovering/Resolving

Unknown.

8.1.4
Symptoms of the Disease Under Study
Symptoms of the disease under study should not be classed as AEs as long as they are within the 
normal day-to-day fluctuation or expected progression of the disease and are part of the efficacy 
data to be collected in the study; however, significant worsening of the symptoms should be 
recorded as an AE.
8.1.5
Clinical Laboratory and Other Safety Evaluations
Clinical laboratory assessments, vital sign, and ECG assessments are performed at the Screening 
Visit (Visit 1) and Visit 6/ET. The investigator is required to review these assessments prior to 
determining subject eligibility. A change in the value of a clinical laboratory, vital sign, or ECG 
assessment can represent an AE if the change is clinically relevant or if, during treatment with 
the investigational product, a shift of a parameter is observed from a normal value to an 
abnormal value, or a further worsening of an already abnormal value. When evaluating such 
changes, the extent of deviation from the reference range, the duration until return to the 
reference range, either while continuing treatment or after the end of treatment with the 
investigational product, and the range of variation of the respective parameter within its 
reference range, must be taken into consideration.
If, at the end of the treatment phase, there are abnormal clinical laboratory, vital sign, or ECG 
values which were not present at the pretreatment value observed closest to the start of study 
treatment, further investigations should be performed until the values return to within the 
reference range or until a plausible explanation (eg, concomitant disease) is found for the 
abnormal values.
The investigator should decide, based on the above criteria and the clinical condition of a 
subject, whether a change in a clinical laboratory, vital sign, or ECG parameter is clinically 
significant, and therefore represents an AE.
8.1.6
Abuse, Misuse, Overdose, and Medication Error
Abuse, misuse, overdose, or medication error (as defined below) must be reported to the sponsor 
according to the SAE reporting procedure whether or not they result in an AE/SAE as described 
in Section 8.2. Note: The 24-hour reporting requirement for SAEs does not apply to reports of 
abuse, misuse, overdose, or medication errors unless these result in an SAE. 
The categories below are not mutually exclusive; the event can meet more than 1 category.

Abuse – Persistent or sporadic intentional intake of investigational product when used for a 
non-medical purpose (eg, to alter one’s state of consciousness or get high) in a manner that 
may be detrimental to the individual and/or society.

Misuse – Intentional use of investigational product other than as directed or indicated at any 
dose (Note: this includes a situation where the investigational product is not used as directed 
at the dose prescribed by the protocol.)

Overdose – Intentional or unintentional intake of a dose of an investigational product 
exceeding a pre-specified total daily dose of 30 mg of the product.


Medication Error – An error made in prescribing, dispensing, administration, and/or use of 
an investigational product. For studies, medication errors are reportable to the sponsor only 
as defined below.
Cases of subjects missing doses of the investigational product are not considered reportable as 
medication errors.
Medication errors should be collected/reported for all products under investigation.
The dispensing, administration, and/or use of an expired investigational product should be 
considered as a reportable medication error.
All investigational product provided to pediatric subjects should be supervised by the 
parent(s)/LAR/caregiver.

Serious Adverse Event Procedures
8.2.1
Reference Safety Information
The reference for safety information for this study is the IB which the sponsor has provided 
under separate cover to all investigators.
8.2.2
Reporting Procedures
All initial and follow-up SAE reports must be reported by the investigator to the Shire 
Pharmacovigilance Department (GlobalPharmacovigilance@shire.com) and the CRO/Shire 
medical monitor within 24 hours of the first awareness of the event. Note: The 24-hour reporting 
requirement for SAEs does not apply to reports of abuse, misuse, overdose, or medication errors 
(see Section 8.1.6) unless they result in an SAE. 
The investigator must complete, sign, and date the Shire Clinical Trial Serious Adverse Event 
Form and verify the accuracy of the information recorded on the form with the corresponding 
source documents (Note: Source documents are not to be sent unless requested) and fax or e-mail 
the form to the Shire Pharmacovigilance Department. A copy of the Shire Clinical Trial Serious 
Adverse Event Form (and any applicable follow-up reports) must also be sent to the CRO/Shire 
medical monitor using the details specified in the emergency contact information section of the 
protocol. 
8.2.3
Serious Adverse Event Definition
An SAE is any untoward medical occurrence (whether considered to be related to investigational 
product or not) that at any dose:

Results in death.

Is life-threatening. Note: The term “life-threatening” in the definition of “serious” refers to an 
event in which the subject was at risk of death at the time of the event; it does not refer to an 
event which hypothetically might have caused death if it was more severe.

Requires inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization. 

Shire
CONFIDENTIAL
Page 63
Protocol Amendment 3
SPD489-347
04 Aug 2017
Note: Hospitalizations, which are the result of elective or previously scheduled surgery for 
pre-existing conditions, which have not worsened after initiation of treatment, should not be 
classified as SAEs. For example, an admission for a previously scheduled ventral hernia 
repair would not be classified as an SAE; however, complication(s) resulting from a 
hospitalization for an elective or previously scheduled surgery that meet(s) serious criteria 
must be reported as SAE(s).

Results in persistent or significant disability/incapacity.

Is a congenital abnormality/birth defect.

Is an important medical event. Note: Important medical events that may not result in death, 
be life-threatening, or require hospitalization may be considered an SAE when, based upon 
appropriate medical judgment, they may jeopardize the subject and may require medical or 
surgical intervention to prevent 1 of the outcomes listed in this definition. Examples of such 
medical events include allergic bronchospasm requiring intensive treatment in an emergency 
room or at home; blood dyscrasias or convulsions that do not result in inpatient 
hospitalization; or the development of drug dependency or drug abuse.
8.2.4
Serious Adverse Event Collection Timeframe
All SAEs (regardless of relationship to study) are collected from the time the subject signs the 
informed consent until the defined follow-up period stated in Section 7.1.3, and must be reported 
to the Shire Pharmacovigilance Department within 24 hours of the first awareness of the event. 
In addition, any SAE(s) considered “related” to the investigational product and discovered by the 
investigator at any interval after the study has completed must be reported to the Shire 
Pharmacovigilance Department within 24 hours of the first awareness of the event.
8.2.5
Serious Adverse Event Onset and Resolution Dates
The onset date of the SAE is defined as the date the event meets serious criteria. The resolution 
date is the date the event no longer meets serious criteria, the date the symptoms resolve, or the 
event is considered chronic. In the case of hospitalizations, the hospital admission and discharge 
dates are considered the onset and resolution dates, respectively.
In addition, any signs or symptoms experienced by the subject after signing the informed consent 
form, or leading up to the onset date of the SAE, or following the resolution date of the SAE, 
must be recorded as an AE, if appropriate.
8.2.6
Fatal Outcome
Any SAE that results in the subject’s death (ie, the SAE was noted as the primary cause of death) 
must have fatal checked as an outcome with the date of death recorded as the resolution date. For 
all other events ongoing at the time of death that did not contribute to the subject’s death, the 
outcome should be considered not resolved, without a resolution date recorded.
For any SAE that results in the subject’s death or any ongoing events at the time of death, the 
action taken with the investigational product should be recorded as “dose not changed” or “not 
applicable” (if the subject never received investigational product).

9.1
Data Collection
The investigators’ authorized site personnel must enter the information required by the protocol 
on the CRF. A study monitor will visit each site in accordance with the monitoring plan and 
review the CRF data against the source data for completeness and accuracy. Discrepancies 
between source data and data entered on the CRF will be addressed by qualified site personnel. 
When a data discrepancy warrants correction, the correction will be made by authorized site 
personnel. Data collection procedures will be discussed with the site at the site initiation visit 
and/or at the investigator’s meeting. Once a subject is randomized, it is expected that site 
personnel will complete the CRF entry within approximately 3 business days of the subject’s 
visit.
9.2
Clinical Data Management
Data are to be entered into a clinical database as specified in the CRO’s data management plan. 
Quality control and data validation procedures are applied to ensure the validity and accuracy of 
the clinical database.
Data are to be reviewed and checked for omissions, errors, and values requiring further 
clarification using computerized and manual procedures. Data queries requiring clarification are 
to be communicated to the site for resolution. Only authorized personnel will make corrections to 
the clinical database, and all corrections are documented in an auditable manner.
9.3
Data Handling Considerations
Data that may potentially unblind the treatment assignment (ie, treatment and bottle allocation) 
will be handled with special care during the data cleaning and review process. These data will be 
handled in such a way that, prior to unblinding, any data that may unblind study team personnel 
will be presented as blinded information or otherwise will not be made available. If applicable, 
unblinded data may be made available to quality assurance representatives for the purposes of 
conducting independent drug audits.

Statistical Analysis Process
The study will be analyzed by the sponsor or its agent.
The statistical analysis plan (SAP) will provide the statistical methods and definitions for the 
analysis of the efficacy and safety data, as well as describe the approaches to be taken for 
summarizing other study information such as subject disposition, demographics and baseline 
characteristics, investigational product exposure, and prior and concomitant medications. The 
SAP will also include a description of how missing, unused, and spurious data will be addressed.
To preserve the integrity of the statistical analysis and study conclusions, the SAP will be 
finalized prior to database lock. 
All statistical analyses will be performed using SAS(SAS Institute, Cary, NC 27513) and R 
MCP-Mod package.
9.5
Planned Interim Analysis, Adaptive Design, and Data Monitoring Committee
9.5.1
Interim Analysis
The study implements a group sequential design with one interim analysis. The interim analysis 
is proposed when approximately 60% of planned subjects who either complete or discontinue the 
study.
The interim analysis will be conducted on the interim analysis dataset, which is defined as all 
data from 60% of initially planned subjects who have either completed or discontinued the study, 
together with data for subjects who are in the study up to the interim analysis data cut time point. 
The efficacy, safety, and sensitivity on missing data mechanisms analyses at the interim analysis 
will primarily be conducted using this dataset.
The Lan-DeMets alpha spending function with O’Brien-Fleming boundary will be used for alpha 
spending between the interim and EOS analysis for the primary efficacy endpoint. Following 
evaluations in the stage-wise hierarchical setting (Glimm et al. 2010), the Lan-DeMets alpha 
spending function with Pocock boundary will be applied to analyze the key secondary efficacy 
endpoint. This approach will strongly control the study-wide type I error at the overall 0.05 
significance level, and in general increase power for the test on the key secondary endpoint.
If the hypothesis for the primary efficacy endpoint is rejected at the interim analysis, then the 
study will be stopped for efficacy and all ongoing subjects from the study (SPD489-347) will be 
immediately rolled over to the open-label extension study (Study SPD489-348). In this case, 
using the same data cut point that contains the same information fractions as the primary efficacy 
interim analysis, the key secondary efficacy endpoint will be tested. In addition, the incremental 
data collected during the interim analysis process, i.e., the overrun, together with the interim 
analysis dataset will be utilized in sensitivity analyses for major efficacy and safety end points. 
Otherwise, if the primary efficacy criterion is not met at the interim analysis, then the hypothesis 
for the key secondary endpoint will not be tested at this time, and the study will continue to its 
completion, then the primary efficacy endpoint will be tested.

If the primary efficacy test is rejected, then the key secondary efficacy endpoint will be tested. 
This testing procedure strongly protects the overall alpha level. In addition, all other efficacy and 
safety analyses will be conducted at this time.  
At the interim or final efficacy analysis, only the primary efficacy result will be used to 
determine if the study meets the efficacy criterion. The nominal significance level for the interim 
or final primary and key secondary efficacy endpoints for a 2-sided at a 0.05 significant level are 
specified below, calculated using East® 6.4. The calculations are based on 60% of planned 
sample size, and will be updated based on the actual information fraction at the interim analysis.

Analysis
Final Analysis

Endpoint

0.0477
Key Secondary 
Endpoint
0.0354
0.0257
If the primary efficacy criterion is not met at the interim analysis, and the blinded sample size 
re-estimation causes a sample size increase, the nominal significance levels at the end of the 
study will be recalculated such that the overall alpha level is not greater than 0.05 for the primary 
and key secondary analyses together. The calculations will be based on the new increased sample 
size, the actual information ratio, and the alpha already spent.
It is estimated that the interim analysis will take up to 8 weeks from data cutoff to its completion. 
If the recruitment rate is high and the remaining 40% planned subjects are projected to be all or 
nearly all enrolled within those 8 weeks, the interim analysis will be waived with reasons 
documented. In this case, the EOS analysis will be conducted at the 2-sided significance level of 
0.05 with primary and key secondary endpoints tested sequentially. 
Separately, if the primary efficacy criterion is met at the interim analysis, the interim analysis 
dataset together with overrun data will be used to evaluate the dose-response relationship with 
the Dose Response Analysis Set (DRAS). If the primary efficacy criterion is not met at the 
interim analysis and study continues to its completion, dose-response evaluation will be 
conducted using the EOS data.
9.5.2
Sample Size Re-estimation
In order to maintain sufficient study power to detect a clinically meaningful treatment effect 
for the primary efficacy endpoint, a blinded sample size re-estimation is planned. If the 
study continues beyond the proposed interim analysis, or if the interim analysis is waived, then 
the sample size re-estimation will be performed when approximately 75% of the 195 subjects 
have either completed or discontinued from the study. In this case, cumulative primary 
efficacy data will be used to estimate a pooled common standard deviation (SD) to ensure the 
variability hypothesized at the design stage is not underestimated.

SPD489-347
04 Aug 2017
Together with the assumed treatment difference of 8.4, the final total number of subjects to be 
enrolled will be calculated using the re-estimated pooled SD (Friede and Kieser 2006). 
The final total sample size could potentially be as high as 218 completers, which corresponds to 
the 97.5% percentile of the distribution of the estimator on the assumed true common SD of 
14 postulated at the design stage. If the re-estimated pooled common SD is larger than 14, the 
sample size will be increased. Otherwise, the sample size will remain the same. Note that the 
total of 218 completers is not considered a cap. As the final sample size is data driven, a higher 
number, though unlikely, is possible.
The Type-I error level for the sample size re-estimation will be adjusted based on the 
O'Brien-Fleming boundary when applicable.
9.5.3
Data Monitoring Committee
An external independent Data Monitoring Committee (DMC) was set up to review the data 
pertaining to safety, tolerability, and benefit/harm of the study therapy for the duration of this 
Pediatric Written Request program, which includes studies SPD489-211, SPD489-347, and 
SPD489-348. The same DMC will evaluate the efficacy analysis results and supportive safety 
summaries to determine if the interim efficacy criteria are met for this study. Confidentiality of 
the unblinded DMC analyses is a critical concern and to address this, an unblinded independent 
reporting team will be identified within a CRO. The independent reporting team will have no 
involvement in the conduct of the study. Further details regarding the DMC can be found in the 
DMC charter.
The DMC will not be involved in the blinded sample size re-estimation and dose-response 
relationship evaluations.
9.6
Sample Size Calculation and Power Considerations
Approximately 195  subjects will be randomized in a 5:5:5:5:6 ratio to SPD489 5, 10, 20, 30 mg 
or placebo to achieve 156  completers for the study (30 in each active treatment group and 36 in 
the placebo group) and 85% power for the primary efficacy analysis at a 2-sided 0.05 
significance level. The sample size planned at study initiation is estimated based on the primary 
comparison between pooled SPD489 10, 20, and 30 mg dose levels (excluding the 5 mg) and 
placebo on the primary efficacy endpoint, in a group sequential design with 1 interim analysis 
using the Lan-DeMets alpha spending function with O'Brien-Fleming boundary for the primary 
efficacy endpoint. Assumptions for the calculation include the true mean difference of 8.4 with 
the common standard deviation (SD) of 14 for the primary efficacy endpoint, for an effect size of 
0.6, and a dropout rate of 20%. 
The dose-response relationship that measured as the ADHD-RS-IV Preschool Version Total 
Score change from baseline will be evaluated separately. Assuming the maximum difference in 
change from baseline in ADHD-RS-IV Preschool Version Total Score between 0 mg (placebo) 
and SPD489 (5, 10, 20 or 30 mg) is 13.0 points, and has a standard deviation of 14 for the 
change, then in order to detect a plausible dose-response curve at 85% power and a significance 
level of 0.05 (2-sided) using MCP-Mod with equal allocation to the treatment groups, it is 
necessary to have 18 completers for each arm.

SPD489-347

Assuming a 20% dropout rate, a total of 24 subjects for each treatment group are required to be 
randomized. Therefore, the overall sample size of the study will be sufficient for dose-response 
analysis.
9.7
Study Population
The Screened Set will consist of all subjects who have signed an informed consent.
The Randomized Set will consist of all subjects in the Screened Set for whom a randomization 
number has been assigned.
The Safety Analysis Set will consist of all subjects in the Randomized Set who have taken at 
least 1 dose of investigational product.
The Full Analysis Set (FAS) will consist of all subjects in the Safety Analysis Set who have at 
least 1 post baseline ADHD-RS-IV Preschool Version Total Score assessment, where baseline is 
defined as the last valid assessment prior to taking the first dose of investigational product.
The Dose Response Analysis Set (DRAS) will consist of all subjects in the Safety Analysis Set 
who have at least 1 valid primary efficacy measurement (ADHD-RS- IV Preschool Version 
Total Score) on the randomized target dose level of the investigational product.
The above analysis sets are similarly defined for both the interim and the complete study 
analyses.
9.8
Efficacy Analyses
The primary and key secondary analyses, including sensitivity analyses, will be based on the 
FAS and will be conducted on either the interim analysis dataset or all cumulative data up to 
study completion, whenever it is appropriate. Specifically, these analyses will compare between 
placebo and pooled SPD489 10, 20, 30 mg dose strengths together, excluding the 5 mg arm. For 
primary and key secondary endpoints, statistical tests are planned to control the study-wide type 
I error at the 2-sided 5% level, as described in Section 9.5. All other statistical tests will be 
2-sided hypothesis tests performed at the 5% level of significance, with no adjustment for 
multiplicity. All confidence intervals will be 2-sided 95% confidence intervals, unless stated 
otherwise.  In addition, the dose response relationship evaluations will be performed over the 
DRAS and using appropriate datasets. For this case, all randomized investigational product 
groups, which include 0 (placebo), 5, 10, 20, 30 mg (SPD489) doses will be used.
Rules for missing data handling will be described in the SAP.
9.8.1
Primary Efficacy Endpoint
The primary efficacy endpoint is defined as the change from baseline in clinician-administered 
ADHD-RS-IV Preschool Version Total Score at Visit 6 (Week 6).

The statistical hypotheses of the primary efficacy analysis are:

The null hypothesis is: there is no treatment difference between pooled SPD489 (10, 20, and 
30 mg) dose group and placebo at Visit 6 (Week 6)

The alternate hypothesis is: there is a difference between pooled SPD489 (10, 20, and 30 mg) 
dose group and placebo at Visit 6 (Week 6). 
The estimand of primary interest is:
Estimate of the average effect attributable to the experimental treatment as compared to placebo 
at Visit 6 (Week 6), for all subjects in the FAS of the study.
The primary efficacy endpoint will be analyzed using the linear mixed-effects model for repeated 
measures (MMRM). The analysis includes the fixed categorical effects of treatment, visit, and 
treatment-by-visit interaction, the covariate of baseline ADHD-RS-IV Preschool Version Total 
Score, and with the baseline ADHD-RS-IV Preschool Version Total Score-by-visit interaction 
adjusted in the model. The primary contrast of interest will be pooled 10, 20, and 30 mg 
treatment effect at Visit 6 (Week 6) for SPD489 compared with placebo. Missing data will not be 
imputed.
Sensitivity analysis on missing data for the primary efficacy endpoint will be described in the 
SAP.
9.8.2
Key Secondary Efficacy Endpoints
The key secondary efficacy endpoint CGI-I provides an overall assessment of global symptom 
improvement. It will be analyzed using the same analysis method (MMRM) as for the primary 
efficacy endpoint. The baseline CGI-S score will be used as the covariate. The contrast of 
interest will be at Visit 6 (Week 6) for SPD489 compared with placebo. 
9.8.3
Secondary Efficacy Endpoints
The primary and key secondary efficacy analyses, and dose-response analysis will be conducted 
separately, and therefore no multiplicity adjustment will be considered for these objectives 
together.
Using a pre-specified set of candidate dose-response curves that are selected based on prior 
knowledge of SPD489 dose-response and assumptions on fixed-doses effects (placebo, SPD489 
5, 10, 20, and 30 mg), the dose-response relationship of SPD489 as measured by the change from 
baseline for ADHD-RS-IV Preschool Version Total Score will be evaluated using the DRAS. 
The MCP-Mod methodology will be used to identify the optimized dose-response curve and the
minimum effective dose (MED). 
The assumed family of plausible dose-response curves consists of linear, Emax, and logistic 
relationships, with appropriate parameters, covering the dose ranges of 0 mg (placebo) to 30 mg 
of investigational product. When the study completes, regardless at the interim analysis or at end 
of the study, using all cumulative available data, the dose-response relationship of SPD489 as 
measured by the change from baseline for ADHD-RS-IV Preschool Version Total Score fitting 
with a candidate curve will be evaluated.

Safety Analyses
The Safety Analysis Set based on either the interim analysis dataset or all cumulative data up to 
study completion, whenever it is appropriate, will be used to report the safety data.  
Clinical laboratory tests, vital signs, and ECG findings will be summarized by treatment group 
and visit using appropriate descriptive statistics. Potentially clinically important findings will 
also be summarized by treatment group and listed.
Adverse events will be coded using the Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Activities. TEAEs 
are defined as AEs that start or deteriorate on or after the date of the first dose of investigational 
product and no later than 3 days following the last dose of investigational product in the 
double-blind phase. 
Treatment-emergent AEs will be summarized. The number and percent of subjects with TEAEs 
will be calculated for each system organ class, by preferred term, and by treatment. The severity 
of the TEAEs, the relationship to the investigational product, TEAEs causing study 
discontinuation, serious AEs and death will also be presented. 
The CSHQ will be summarized by treatment group using appropriate descriptive statistics at 
each visit. 
Sleep diary data will be descriptively summarized by treatment group.
A summary and listing of the C-SSRS data will be provided for subjects with a positive response 
only.

Privacy and Confidentiality
All US-based sites and laboratories or entities providing support for this study, must, where 
applicable, comply with the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) of 
1996. A site that is not a covered entity as defined by HIPAA must provide documentation of 
this fact to the CRO.
The confidentiality of records that may be able to identify subjects will be protected in 
accordance with applicable laws, regulations, and guidelines.
After subjects have consented to take part in the study, the sponsor, and/or its representative’s
reviews their medical records and data collected during the study. These records and data may, in 
addition, be reviewed by others including the following: independent auditors who validate the 
data on behalf of the sponsor; third parties with whom the sponsor may develop, register, or 
market SPD489; national or local regulatory authorities; and the IRB(s)/EC(s) which gave 
approval for the study to proceed. The sponsor and/or its representatives accessing the records 
and data will take all reasonable precautions in accordance with applicable laws, regulations, and 
guidelines to maintain the confidentiality of subjects’ identities.
Subjects are assigned a unique identifying number; however, their initials may also be collected 
and used to assist the sponsor to verify the accuracy of the data (eg, to confirm that laboratory 
results have been assigned to the correct subject).
The results of studies – containing subjects’ unique identifying number, relevant medical 
records, and possibly initials – will be recorded. They may be transferred to, and used in, other 
countries which may not afford the same level of protection that applies within the countries 
where this study is conducted. The purpose of any such transfer would include: to support 
regulatory submissions, to conduct new data analyses to publish or present the study results, or to 
answer questions asked by regulatory or health authorities.

are perceived as positive, neutral, or negative. Additionally, Shire adheres to external 
guidelines (eg, Good Publication Practices 2) when forming a publication steering committee, 
which is done for large, multicenter Phase 2-4 and certain other studies as determined by Shire. 
The purpose of the publication steering committee is to act as a non-commercial body that 
advises or decides on dissemination of scientific study data in accordance with the scope of this 
policy.
All publications relating to Shire products or projects must undergo appropriate technical and 
intellectual property review, with Shire agreement to publish prior to release of information. 
The review is aimed at protecting the sponsor’s proprietary information existing either at 
the commencement of the study or generated during the study. To the extent permitted by 
the publisher and copyright law, the principal investigator will own (or share with other 
authors) the copyright on his/her publications.

To the extent that the principal investigator has such sole, joint, or shared rights, the principal 
investigator grants the sponsor a perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free license to make and 
distribute copies of such publications.
The term “publication” refers to any public disclosure including original research articles, review 
articles, oral presentations, abstracts, and posters at medical congresses, journal supplements, 
letters to the editor, invited lectures, opinion pieces, book chapters, electronic postings on 
medical/scientific websites, or other disclosure of the study results, in printed, electronic, oral, or 
other form.
Subject to the terms of the paragraph below, the investigator shall have the right to publish the 
study results, and any background information provided by the sponsor that is necessary to 
include in any publication of study results, or necessary for other scholars to verify such study 
results. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no publication that incorporates the sponsor’s 
confidential information shall be submitted for publication without the sponsor’s prior written 
agreement to publish, and shall be given to the sponsor for review at least 60 days prior to 
submission for publication. If requested in writing by Shire, the institution and principal 
investigator shall withhold submission of such publication for up to an additional 60 days to 
allow for filing of a patent application.
If the study is part of a multicenter study, the first publication of the study results shall be made 
by the sponsor in conjunction with the sponsor’s presentation of a joint, multicenter publication 
of the compiled and analyzed study results. If such a multicenter publication is not submitted to a 
journal for publication by the sponsor within an 18-month period after conclusion, abandonment, 
or termination of the study at all sites, or after the sponsor confirms there shall be no multicenter 
study publication of the study results, an investigator may individually publish the study results 
from the specific site in accordance with this section. The investigator must, however, 
acknowledge in the publication the limitations of the single-site data being presented.
Unless otherwise required by the journal in which the publication appears, or the forum in which 
it is made, authorship will comply with the International Committee of Medical Journal Editors 
(ICMJE) current standards. Participation as an investigator does not confer any rights to 
authorship of publications.

Impulsivity
(g)
often blurts out answers before questions have been completed
(h)
often has difficulty awaiting turn
(i)
often interrupts or intrudes on others (eg, butts into conversations or games)
B. Some hyperactive-impulsive or inattentive symptoms that caused impairment were present 
before age 7 years.

and at home).
D. There must be clear evidence of clinically significant impairment in social, academic, or 
occupational functioning.
E. The symptoms do not occur exclusively during the course of a Pervasive Development 
Disorder, Schizophrenia, or other Psychotic Disorder and are not better accounted for by 
another mental disorder (eg, Mood Disorder, Anxiety Disorder, Dissociative Disorder, or a 
Personality Disorder).
Code based on type:
314.01 Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder, Combined Type:
if both Criteria A1 and A2 are met for the past 6 months
314.00 Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder, Predominately Inattentive Type:
if Criterion A1 is met but Criterion A2 is not met for the past 6 months
314.01 Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder, Predominately Hyperactive-Impulsive 
Type: if Criterion A2 is met but Criterion A1 is not met for the past 6 months
