Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Change From Baseline to the End of the Double- Blind Treatment Period (Week 12) in Polysomnography (PSG) Defined Latency to Persistent Sleep (LPS).

    A central scoring facility was used to derive the PSG sleep parameters Latency to Persistent Sleep (LPS) from the epochs and stages collected via the PSG recordings. Each epoch is 30 seconds. The PSG parameters provided an objective assessment of the subject's sleep on a given night. Change from BL at Week 12 in LPS was derived from Week 12 LPS subtracted by BL LPS. Latency to persistent sleep (LPS; minutes): time from lights out to the first of 20 consecutive epochs (10 minutes) of non-wake, as determined by PSG recordings.

    Baseline (Day 0) to Week 12

Secondary Outcomes (19)

  • Change From Baseline (Day 0) to Week 12 in PSG Defined Wake Time After Sleep Onset (WASO)

    Baseline (Day 0) to Week 12

  • Change From Baseline in Clinical Global Improvement (CGI)-Parent/Caregiver at Week 12

    Baseline (Day 0) to Week 12

  • Change From Baseline in CGI-Child at Week 12

    Baseline (Day 0) to Week 12

  • Change From Baseline (Day 0) to Week 12 in Conners' ADHD Inattention Rating Scale.

    Baseline (Day 0) to Week 12

  • Change From Baseline to Week 12 in Subjective SL (Sleep Latency)

    Baseline (Day 0) to Week 12
