Further study details as provided by Eli Lilly and Company:

Primary Outcome Measures:
  • To test that atomoxetine is superior to placebo in reducing ADHD severity as measured by the Adult ADHD Investigator Symptom Rating Scale (AISRS) Total score and is superior to placebo in time to relapse of alcohol abuse at 12 weeks.

Secondary Outcome Measures:

  • The proportion of drinking days is smaller for atomoxetine-treated patients compared with those in the placebo group.
  • Time to relapse of alcohol abuse is longer for atomoxetine-treated patients compared with those in the placebo group.
  • Number of drinks per drinking day is smaller for patients treated with atomoxetine compared with placebo.
  • The proportion of substance use days, for substances other than alcohol, is smaller among patients treated with atomoxetine as compared with placebo.
  • After approximately 12 weeks of treatment, patients who receive atomoxetine will have superior social and occupational functioning compared with those who receive placebo as assessed by changes in the EWPS.
  • Global functioning as assessed by the CGI-Overall-S and the CGI-I are superior in patients treated with atomoxetine as compared with those treated with placebo.
  • Improvement in depressive symptoms as assessed by the HAM-D-17.
  • Improvement in anxiety symptoms as assessed by the HAM-A.
  • Improvement in self-reported ADHD symptoms as assessed by the ASRS.
  • Improvement in self-rated symptoms of alcohol cravings as assessed by the OCDS.
  • Improvement in specific symptoms of ADHD as assessed by the WRAADDS.
  • Improvement in the self-rated adaptive functioning as assessed by the ASR.
