CNS Stimulants for ADHD

Hershey, Pennsylvania
Impulsive Aggression and chronic irritability (IACI) often occur together and are one of the most common reasons children present for behavioral health (BH) care. ADHD frequently associated with IACI as upwards of 50% of youth with ADHD manifest impairing IACI levels. IACI is the most common reason that children with ADHD are prescribed antipsychotics and admitted to inpatient BH units. Systematic dose optimization of CNS stimulants improves levels of IACI, reducing the need for these more intensive and burdensome treatments. However, response varies, with over half of children with ADHD showing meaningful improvement, upwards of 40% receiving minimal benefit and 3 to 10% exhibiting increased IACI levels. Symptom levels of ADHD or IACI and other demographic variables are of limited utility for predicting response, suggesting the need to move beyond symptoms in the search for treatment predictors. Youth with ADHD and IACI struggle with multiple aspects reinforcement learning (RL), defined as learning from interactions with the environment to reach a goal. Successful RL efforts tap multiple cognitive functions. In controlled laboratory tasks, youth with IACI and various BH disorders exhibit excessive behavioral and neural response to receiving reward (reward responsiveness), difficulty processing environmental cues to adapt behavior to meet a goal (set shifting/goal updating) and impaired ability to flexibly attend to relevant stimuli when blocked from a goal (frustrative nonreward). Event related potentials (ERP) are small electrical responses in the brain in response to specific events or stimuli measured by electroencephalogram (EEG) testing. ERPs exist that can serve as established neural measures of each of these cognitive functions offering a child friendly means to assess their contribution to observable levels of IACI. CNS stimulants improve functioning in these specific realms and impact associated ERPs to the degree that differences between ADHD and non-ADHD youth disappear. This study will examine the capacity of these ERPs to predict levels of IACI exhibited by children with ADHD when at home. Investigators will then assess if variability across children in the capacity of CNS stimulants to impact RL associated ERPs accounts for differences in the clinical effects of CNS stimulant medications to improve IACI at home using a multimethod battery integrating ERPs, parent report and task performance. Specifically, investigators will examine variance in the reward positivity (RewP) ERP when receiving reward feedback, the switch positivity (SwP) ERP measuring mental effort when cued to shift set and the change in P3b amplitude measuring attention allocation when transitioning from reward to nonreward on a go-no-go task. To achieve these aims, 136 children with ADHD and elevated IACI levels will have their CNS stimulant dose optimized over six weeks and then complete a two week within subjects crossover trial of placebo versus optimal dose. ERP collection will be completed within each blinded week. Parent ratings will be gathered 3 times per day including during peak and off-peak times of medication efficacy to capture the variance in IACI levels within the day and disentangle reports of worsening IACI related to loss of previously beneficial medication effects versus those most likely related to a direct adverse response to medication.

HOPS Intervention for ADHD

Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
The purpose of this current study is to conduct a conceptual replication with an independent evaluation team of the randomized controlled trial conducted by Langberg and colleagues, which demonstrated the efficacy of the Homework, Organization, and Planning Skills (HOPS) intervention. The study will be conducted under routine practice conditions with school staff serving as interventionists; the study sample will include the broad range of students with organization, time management, and planning problems. The study will examine how implementation factors (fidelity, engagement, working alliance) are related to outcomes, and it will explore the potential moderating role of school organization factors on outcomes.

Measurement Feedback App for Autism Spectrum Disorder

Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
The goal of this clinical trial is to test whether a smartphone-based data collection and feedback application ("Footsteps") improves the quality of behavioral data collected by one-to-one aides and leads to better youth mental health outcomes in school-aged youth (ages 4-17) who receive one-to-one support in schools. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Does the Footsteps app improve aides' data collection quality (i.e., consistency, timeliness, and completeness)? 2. Does Footsteps use lead to improved youth behavioral health outcomes (e.g., SDQ, YTP, GAS scores)? 3. Does Footsteps improve communication and supervision processes between aides and clinical supervisors? Researchers will compare aides using Footsteps to those using a "data collection only" control app to see if Footsteps leads to higher quality data collection, enhanced supervisory communication, and better youth outcomes. Participants will: * Use either Footsteps or a control app to record de-identified data on one client's behaviors and skills over 12 weeks * Complete biweekly online surveys about data collection experiences, youth progress, and aide-supervisor communication * Participate in a virtual intake and post-trial meeting * (For a subset) Participate in a 30-45 minute qualitative interview about their experience using the app

Oxymetazoline Drops for Drooping Eyelid

Hershey, Pennsylvania
After an episode of facial paralysis, as nerves recover, they aberrantly regenerate and send additional branches to the incorrect muscles in addition to the intended muscle. This leads to what is known as Aberrant Regeneration Syndrome, Post-paralysis Synkinesis, or Nonflaccid Facial Paralysis. It is characterized by poor facial symmetry and function, hypertonic facial muscles at rest, and abnormal facial movements. One sequela is acquired blepharoptosis causing a smaller ocular aperture, visual field obstruction, cosmetic deformity, and abnormal periocular spasms. This study aims to evaluate an FDA approved medication for acquired blepharoptosis due to synkinesis/hyperkinesis as an adjunct to treatment.

THRIVE Intervention for Childhood Mental Disorder

St Louis, Missouri
This study is designed to test the effectiveness and implementation of an early intervention therapy for children and their primary caregivers by using existing school counselors across several school districts. The intervention is a 6-8 week caregiver-child intervention (THRIVE) which will be conducted via video conference in the family's home (i.e., zoom), or within the school setting (or a combination of those 2 modalities depending upon feasibility for the family). THRIVE will be compared to an asynchronous on-line parenting education program, Parenting Wisely (PW). This online parenting course will be accessed at www.parentingwisely.com. Existing school counselors will be trained in the delivery of THRIVE to 3-7 year old children (in preschool, kindergarten and first grade) and their primary caregivers. In addition to testing the effectiveness of THRIVE compared to PW, we will also compare two implementation strategies: THRIVE-Coached and THRIVE-Low Coached (LC). We will assess ongoing coaching of THRIVE trainees to increase therapist efficacy and adherence to the intervention (THRIVE-Coached). This will be compared to implementation of THRIVE with low supports (e.g. weekly supervision) provided only for the first case following the initial training (THRIVE-LC\]. Compared to those randomized to PW, we expect children who receive THRIVE will have significantly better behavioral and socio-emotional outcomes. Caregivers who receive THRIVE will experience less parenting stress and depression, more optimism and will show more nurturing, emotional tolerance, and supportive caregiving. Therapists in the THRIVE-Coached condition will deliver the intervention with higher achieved outcomes and find the intervention to be more acceptable than therapists in the THRIVE-LC condition. Therapists in the THRIVE-Coached condition will be more likely to plan to sustain the intervention following the completion of the study than those in the THRIVE-LC condition. Parents and children receiving THRIVE from therapists in the THRIVE-Coached condition will have better socio-emotional outcomes than those in the THRIVE-LC and PW conditions.

Jornay PM for ADHD

New York, New York
The goal of this study is to extend the efficacy evidence of sustained release methylphenidate compound (JornayPM) in adults with Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). JornayPM has recently been approved for treatment of patients 6 years and older with ADHD; the release mechanism is unique among ADHD products in that it is taken in the evening, with effects in the morning upon awakening and then throughout the subsequent day. Of note, to date, there is no clinical data as to the tolerability or clinical effects or dosing in adults with ADHD; therefore the primary aim of this trial is to gather the first set of these data.
