September 27, 2021 updated by: Shire

Drug Utilization Study With Intuniv® in Australia

This study will evaluate and analyze prescribing behaviors of physicians and determine whether Intuniv was correctly prescribed in Australia.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Completed

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Detailed Description

This is a drug utilization study using retrospective database analysis where study will combine data from two sources of patient-level drug utilization data for Intuniv:

i) NostraData database: longitudinal participant level prescription database ii) Physician survey: de-identified participant data provided by representative physicians in Australia

In the NostraData database, actual prescription data are collected, which allows generation of information on drug usage. However, these prescription data do not contain patient variables such as age and indication needed to monitor potential off-label use. Therefore, these data must be supplemented with another data source. The physician survey will provide the data not included in the NostraData database.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

6 years to 17 years (CHILD)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Sampling Method

Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

Participants who have been prescribed Intuniv at least once during the reporting period.

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Is indicated for the treatment of ADHD in children and adolescents 6 to 17 years old, as monotherapy.
  • Must be used as a part of a comprehensive ADHD treatment programme, typically including psychological, educational and social measures.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Use for participants with a diagnosis other than ADHD.
  • Use for children less than 6 years of age.
  • Use in adults (greater than or equal to [>=] 18 years of age)
  • Prescribed overdose greater than (>) 7 milligram per day (mg/day) for participants > 12 years, or > 4 mg/ day for children lesser than or equal to (<=) 12 years.
  • If monotherapy with Intuniv, no prior treatment with stimulants or atomoxetine.

Group / Cohort

A group or subgroup of participants in an observational study that is assessed for biomedical or health outcomes.
NostraData Database

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure

Time Frame: Up to 3 years
Number of Participants Based on Indication of Use of Intuniv will be assessed.
Up to 3 years
Number of Participants with Presence/Absence of Contraindications
Time Frame: Up to 3 years
Number of participants with presence/absence of contraindications will be assessed.
Up to 3 years

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.

Study record dates

These dates track the progress of study record and summary results submissions to ClinicalTrials.gov. Study records and reported results are reviewed by the National Library of Medicine (NLM) to make sure they meet specific quality control standards before being posted on the public website.

Study Major Dates

Study Start (ACTUAL)

Study Start

The actual date on which the first participant was enrolled in a clinical study. The "anticipated" study start date is the date that the researchers think will be the study start date.
March 11, 2019

Primary Completion (ACTUAL)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.
