Population Pharmacokinetic-Pharmacodynamic Modeling of a Novel Methylphenidate Extended-Release Orally Disintegrating Tablet in Pediatric Patients With Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder.

Purpose/background: A methylphenidate (MPH) extended-release orally disintegrating tablet (MPH XR-ODT) formulation was recently approved for attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder treatment in children 6 to 17 years of age. This analysis sought to develop a population pharmacokinetic (PK)/pharmacodynamic (PD) model to describe MPH XR-ODT PD-response data in a classroom study and use the model to simulate PD responses for a range of body weights and doses.

Methods/procedures: The MPH XR-ODT PK/PD model was developed with pediatric and adult PK data from prior studies and efficacy data from a laboratory classroom study in children with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder.

A Single-Dose, Two-Way Crossover, Open-Label Bioequivalence Study of an Amphetamine Extended-Release Oral Suspension in Healthy Adults.

The purpose of this study was to compare the pharmacokinetics of a new extended-release amphetamine oral suspension (AMP XR-OS) with a standard extended-release mixed amphetamine salts product, Adderall XR®. : In this single-dose, open-label, randomized, two-period, two-treatment crossover study, 42 healthy adult volunteers received 15 mL of AMP XR-OS in one period and a 30 mg Adderall XR capsule in another period (both containing 18.8 mg of amphetamine base) under fasted conditions.

Pharmacokinetics of a New Amphetamine Extended-release Oral Liquid Suspension Under Fasted and Fed Conditions in Healthy Adults: A Randomized, Open-label, Single-dose, 3-treatment Study.

Purpose: A new amphetamine extended-release liquid formulation (AMP XR-OS), intended for the treatment of attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder, has been developed. This study was performed to determine if administration with food affected the rate of absorption or bioavailability of AMP XR-OS. The formulation was also compared with an equivalent dose of an extended-release mixed amphetamine salts reference product (30 mg) under fed conditions.

Pharmacokinetics of a New Amphetamine Extended-Release Oral Suspension in Children with Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder.

Objective: An extended-release amphetamine (AMP) oral suspension has been developed to facilitate medication ingestion and dose titration. This study sought to determine the pharmacokinetic (PK) profile of this new formulation in children with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).

Methods: This was an open-label, single-period, PK study in 29 pediatric participants with ADHD.

A Randomized Phase I Study to Assess the Effect of Alcohol on the Pharmacokinetics of an Extended-release Orally Disintegrating Tablet Formulation of Amphetamine in Healthy Adults.

Purpose: There is a strong association between attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and alcohol abuse, yet no studies have systematically assessed the effect of alcohol on the pharmacokinetics of psychostimulants such as amphetamine (AMP) in vivo. This study evaluated the effects of alcohol on the rate and extent of absorption of Adzenys™ XR-ODT*, a new extended-release orally disintegrating AMP tablet (AMP XR-ODT) for ADHD.

Methods: A Phase I single-dose, open-label study was conducted in 32 healthy adults.

A Comparison of the Pharmacokinetics of Methylphenidate Extended-Release Orally Disintegrating Tablets With a Reference Extended-Release Formulation of Methylphenidate in Healthy Adults.

Extended-release (ER) methylphenidate (MPH) is a first-line treatment for attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder. A methylphenidate extended-release orally disintegrating tablet (MPH XR-ODT) has recently been developed. This was a randomized, open-label, 3-period, 3-treatment study comparing the bioavailability and absorption of 2 MPH XR-ODT formulations with an MPH ER reference medication.

Pharmacokinetics of a Novel Amphetamine Extended-Release Orally Disintegrating Tablet in Children with Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder.

Background: A novel formulation for treating attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) has recently been developed-amphetamine extended-release orally disintegrating tablets (AMP XR-ODTs). In this study, we assessed the rate of absorption and exposure of AMP XR-ODT under fasted conditions in children with ADHD.

Methods: Children (6-12 years) with ADHD were enrolled in a single-dose, open-label, single-period pharmacokinetic (PK) study.

A randomized crossover study to assess the pharmacokinetics of a novel amphetamine extended-release orally disintegrating tablet in healthy adults.

Objectives: In this pharmacokinetic (PK) study in healthy adults, we sought to: (1) compare the PK properties of a novel amphetamine extended-release orally disintegrating tablet formulation (Adzenys XR-ODT™ [AMP XR-ODT]) to a reference extended-release mixed amphetamine salts (MAS ER) formulation and (2) assess the effect of food on AMP XR-ODT.

Methods: Forty-two adults were enrolled in a single-dose, open-label, 3-period, 3-treatment, randomized crossover study and received an 18.8-mg dose of AMP XR-ODT (fasted or fed) or equivalent dose (30 mg) of MAS ER (fasted).

A Single-Dose, Single-Period Pharmacokinetic Assessment of an Extended-Release Orally Disintegrating Tablet of Methylphenidate in Children and Adolescents with Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder.

Objective: To determine the pharmacokinetic (PK) profile of a proprietary formulation of methylphenidate (MPH) in children and adolescents with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in a phase 1 study. Methylphenidate extended-release orally disintegrating tablets (MPH XR-ODTs) combine two technologies in a single-tablet formulation-an extended-release profile that was designed for once-daily dosing in an ODT that does not require water or chewing for ingestion.

Methods: This was a single-dose, open-label, single-period, single-treatment study, in which 32 children with ADHD who were receiving MPH in doses of 40 or 60 mg before beginning the study each received a 60-mg dose (2 × 30 mg) of MPH XR-ODT.
