ClinConnect Summary
This clinical trial is studying a new medication called NRCT-101SR to see how well it works and how safe it is for treating Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) in teenagers aged 13 to 17. The goal is to compare the effects of NRCT-101SR with a placebo, which is an inactive treatment. The study is currently looking for participants to join and aims to help improve ADHD treatment options for young people.
To be eligible for the trial, participants must be between 13 and 17 years old and have a confirmed diagnosis of ADHD. They should also have specific levels of ADHD symptoms as measured by a standard test. However, there are some important health conditions that would exclude someone from participating, such as severe psychiatric disorders or ongoing significant medical issues. Participants in the trial can expect to receive careful monitoring and support throughout the study, helping researchers understand how NRCT-101SR can impact ADHD symptoms in teenagers.

- Inclusion Criteria:
- • 1. Male or female, 13-17 years of age at screening.
- • 2. Has a primary diagnosis of ADHD according to the DSM-5 classification, confirmed with MINI using DSM-5 probes.
- • 3. ADHD-related symptoms - ADHD-RS-5 ≥ 26 in screening and baseline.
- • \* Baseline score must not change by more than 25% from screening to baseline, except subjects who stop taking ADHD medication after screening may have an increase of more than 25%.
- • 4. Has a minimum score of 4 on the CGI-S at baseline.
- Exclusion Criteria:
- • 1. PERMP-C score \> 200 in Moderate difficulty level in orientation.
- • 2. PERMP-C score \> 180 in Easy difficulty level AND \< 80 in Moderate difficulty level in orientation.
- • 3. Subject is functioning below an age-appropriate level intellectually, as judged by the Investigator.
- • 4. Lifetime history of severe psychiatric symptoms of major depression requiring hospitalization, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia or schizoaffective disorder, hallucinations, or delusions. Severe comorbid disorders such as PTSD, severe obsessive-compulsive disorder, or other symptomatic presentation that, in the opinion of the examining physician, will contraindicate NRCT-101SR treatment or confound efficacy or safety assessments. Subjects with mild to moderate forms of social phobia or dysthymia, for instance, may be included.
- • 5. History of seizures (other than infantile febrile seizures), any tic disorder (except transient tic disorder and subject has no episodes for at least 1 year), or a current diagnosis of Tourette's Disorder.
- • 6. Recent history (within the past 1 year) of suspected substance abuse or dependence disorder in accordance with DSM-5 criteria.
- • 7. Current abnormal thyroid function as defined as abnormal screening thyroid stimulating hormone. Treatment for at least 3 months with a stable dose of thyroid medication is permitted.
- • 8. History of poor kidney function; corrected estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) \< 90 mL/min/m2
- • 9. History of significant gastrointestinal disorders, such as chronic diarrhea, irritable bowel syndrome, ulcerative colitis, Crohn's disease, etc.
- • 10. Female subjects who are pregnant and/or lactating and/or sexually active women of childbearing potential (WOCBP) not agreeing to use birth control methods outlined in inclusion criterion.
- • 11. \*A woman is considered fertile following menarche unless permanently sterile; a premenarchal female is not considered a WOBCP).
- • 12. A "yes" answer to "suicidal ideation" item 4 (active suicidal ideation with some intent to act, without specific plan) or item 5 (active suicidal ideation with specific plan and intent) on the C-SSRS assessment at screening (in the past 12 months).
- • 13. Has history of severe drug allergy or hypersensitivity to the study medication or its excipients.
- • 14. Hypermagnesemia; serum magnesium \> 2.5 mg/dL.
- • 15. Hepatic impairment as defined by serum AST, ALT and/or ALP \> 1.25 ULN, and/or serum bilirubin \> 1.5 ULN.
- 16. Known history of hepatitis B and/or C.:
- • 17. Is currently participating in another clinical trial or has participated in a clinical trial within 30 days or 5 half-lives of the investigational drug, whichever is longer, prior
- • 18. to the Screening Visit.
- • 19. Currently living in an institutional facility.
- • 20. Severe physical disability not associated with cognitive function that limits ability to complete testing.
- • 21. Known history of symptomatic cardiac disease, advanced atherosclerosis, structural cardiac abnormality, cardiomyopathy, serious heart rhythm abnormalities, coronary heart disease, transient ischemic attack or stroke or other serious cardiac problems.
- • 22. Known family history of sudden cardiac death or ventricular arrhythmia.
- • 23. Serious or unstable clinically important systemic illness or disease that, in the judgment of the Investigator, is likely to affect the study assessments, deteriorate, or affect the subject's safety or ability to complete the study, including hepatic (e.g., Child-Pugh grade C), renal, gastroenterological, respiratory, cardiovascular, endocrinologic, immunologic, infectious, or hematologic disorders.
- • 24. Has previously participated in a NRCT-101SR / L-TAMS investigational study.
- • 25. Investigators and their immediate family members are not permitted to participate in the study.
- 26. Changes in medications or doses of medication as follows:
- • 27. All allowed concomitant medications, supplements, or other substances must be at stable doses for at least 30 days prior to screening and must be kept as stable as medically possible during the trial. For allowed concomitant medications, any dosing change within 30 days of Screening may be allowed if, in the opinion of the Investigator, it will not affect or influence study results.
