Brief summary
A Phase 2 study of SEP-225289 in adults with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).
Detailed description
This is a Phase 2, randomized, double-blind, parallel-group, multicenter, outpatient study evaluating the efficacy and safety of SEP 225289 in adults with ADHD using 2 oral dosages (4 or 8 mg SEP 225289 once daily \[QD\]) versus placebo over a 4 week treatment period.

Inclusion criteria
* Subject meets Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders Fourth Edition; Text Revision (DSM-IV-TR) criteria for a primary diagnosis of ADHD (inattentive, hyperactive, or combined subtype) established by a comprehensive psychiatric evaluation that reviews DSM-IV-TR criteria. Diagnosis is confirmed by Conners' Adult ADHD Diagnostic Interview (CAADID) Part 2. * Subject currently taking medication (stimulant or nonstimulant) for the control of ADHD symptoms has an ADHD RS-IV score of ≥ 22 at screening. * Subject currently not taking any medication for the purpose of controlling ADHD symptoms has an ADHD RS-IV score of ≥ 26 at screening. * Subject has a CGI-S score of ≥ 4 at screening. * Subject has a lifetime history of treatment with at least one medication for ADHD (stimulant or nonstimulant). Subjects may be either medicated or unmedicated for ADHD at the time of screening (all ADHD medications must be washed out during screening). * Subject has a negative breath alcohol test and a negative urine drug screen (UDS) for any illicit drug at screening, unless a false positive is suspected, in which case the UDS will be repeated. If the subject has a positive drug screen for ADHD medications (ie, methylphenidate or amphetamine) at screening; the subject must have a negative UDS after a washout period at least 3 days prior to baseline. * Subject is male or a non-pregnant, non-lactating female. * Female subjects must have a negative serum pregnancy test at screening; women who are post-menopausal (defined as at least 12 months of spontaneous amenorrhea) and those who have undergone hysterectomy or bilateral oophorectomy will be exempted from the pregnancy test. * Female subjects of childbearing potential and male subjects with female partners of child-bearing potential must agree to use an effective and medically acceptable form of birth control throughout the study period and for one month (30 days) after study completion. Medically acceptable and effective contraceptives include abstinence, prescription hormonal contraceptives (oral, patch, vaginal ring, implant, or injection), diaphragm with spermicide, intrauterine device (IUD), condom with spermicide, surgical sterilization, or vasectomy. For male subjects adequate contraception is defined as abstinence or continuous use of 2 barrier methods of contraception (eg, spermicidal condom). * Subject is 18 to 55 years old, inclusive, at the time of informed consent. 11. Subject can read well enough to understand the informed consent form and other subject materials.

Change From Baseline in the Wender-Reimher Adult Attention Deficit Disorder Scale (WRAADDS) as Measured at Weeks 1, 2, 3, 4.
The WRAADDS measured the severity of the target symptoms of adults with ADHD. It measured symptoms in 7 categories: attention difficulties, hyperactivity/restlessness, temper, affective lability, emotional overreactivity, disorganization, and impulsivity. The scale rated individual items from 0 to 2 (0 = not present, 1 = mild, 2 = clearly present) and summarized each of the 7 categories on a 0 to 4 scale (0 = none, 1 = mild, 2 = moderate, 3 = quite a bit, 4 = very much).
