Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: to test the hypothesis that acute treatment for approximately 4 weeks with atomoxetine provides superior efficacy compared with placebo in patients with Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder-Combined Type (ADHD-C), Reading Disorder (RD) without ADHD, and comorbid ADHD-C and RD (ADHD-C+RD) as measured by improvement in speed of inhibition as shown by a statistically significantly shorter Stop Signal Reaction Time (SSRT) as derived from the Stop Signal Reaction Time Paradigm.;Secondary Objective: To measure: a) In the subset of patients aged 10 years and older, compare performance. b) Compare performance in: ADHD-C, RD, and ADHD-C+RD with the normal control and reading disordered control groups on SSRT and a reading task (lexical decision task). c) Establish the specificity of effect of atomoxetine upon SSRT and a phonological and lexical decision task. d) Determine the effect of atomoxetine compared with placebo upon impulsivity. e) Determine the effect of atomoxetine compared with placebo upon working memory f) Test the hypothesis that atomoxetine is superior to placebo in reducing symptoms of ADHD. g) Compare the clinical effect of atomoxetine to placebo in reducing symptoms of ADHD, using the Clinical Global Impression-Attention- Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder-Improvement Scale (CGI-ADHD-I). h) Compare the safety and tolerability of atomoxetine with placebo as assessed by adverse events (AEs) elicited during open-ended questioning.;Primary end point(s): Stop Signal Reaction Time (SSRT) as Derived From the Stop Signal Reaction Time Paradigm;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Baseline and Week 4 of initial therapy and Week 4 of crossover therapy | — |
