A Double-Blind Placebo-Controlled Phase II Study to Determine the Efficacy, Safety, Tolerability and Pharmacokinetics of a Controlled Release (CR) Formulation of Mazindol in Adults With DSM-5 Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)

The purpose of this study is to determine whether a controlled release formulation of
mazindol is more effective than a placebo in the treatment of Attention Hyperactivity
Disorder (ADHD) in adults.

This study is an outpatient, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial in which
adult subjects with ADHD will be randomized to either oral mazindol controlled release or
placebo once daily. Subjects will be treated with study medication or placebo for 6 weeks
with visits occurring weekly to measure efficacy and any adverse events with adjustment of
medication dosing as necessary.

Inclusion Criteria:

- Subject has a primary diagnosis of ADHD established by a comprehensive psychiatric
evaluation based on DSM-5 criteria.

- Subject is functioning at an appropriate level intellectually as judged by the
investigator.

- Subject has a minimum baseline score of 28 at screen and at baseline using the
ADHD-RS-DSM5

- Subject has a minimum score of 4 (moderate) on the CGI-S at screening.

- Women of child-bearing potential must be non-pregnant, non-lactating, and agree to be
on an acceptable method of contraception. Acceptable methods of contraception include
intrauterine devices (IUDs), hormonal contraceptives (oral, depot, patch or
injectable), and double barrier methods such as condoms or diaphragms with
spermicidal gel or foam.

- In good general physical health as determined by medical history, a baseline physical
examination, vital signs, clinical laboratory tests and electrocardiogram (ECG)
measurement.

- Subject is fluent in written and spoken English and is willing and able to sign
written informed consent prior to receipt of any study medication or beginning study
procedures.

- Subject is willing and able to follow instructions, comply with the protocol
requirements and make all required study visits.

Exclusion Criteria:

- Any primary DSM-5 Axis I disorder other than ADHD or any comorbid DSM-5 disorder that
currently requires treatment.

- Lifetime history of any DSM-5 bipolar disorder

- Treatment with medications for any psychiatric or neurologic condition (e.g.,
amphetamines, MPH products, antidepressants, antipsychotics, mood stabilizers,
anti-epileptics) or pressor agents concurrently or within 14 days of randomization.

- Concurrent medical illness that would interfere with the conduct of the study in the
opinion of the investigator.

- History of significant cardiovascular disease, structural cardiac abnormality,
cardiomyopathy, heart failure, serious heart rhythm abnormalities, coronary heart
disease, transient ischemic attack or stroke, or other serious cardiac problems.

- Family history of sudden cardiac death.

- Clinically significant ECG abnormality or a QTc (Bazett correction) interval >450
msec.

- Resting sitting systolic blood pressure > 150 mm Hg or diastolic blood pressure > 90
mm Hg.

- BMI <18 or >40 kg/m2.

- Other medications that have CNS effects on cognition or attention (e.g., sedating
antihistamines or decongestants).

- Positive drug screen (UDS) at screening (with the exception of current ADHD
medication).

- Concomitant use of sensitive CYPA4/5 or CYP2D6 substrates with narrow therapeutic
indices.

- Pregnant or lactating.

- Ongoing psychotherapeutic treatment for the treatment of ADHD begun less than three
months before entry into this study.

- Recent or current DSM-5 Substance Use Disorder of moderate or greater severity (i.e.,
> 4 SUD symptoms), excluding nicotine.

- Suicidal ideation within past 3 months, suicidal behavior within the past year, or a
C-SSRS score of 3, 4 or 5 on ideation item.

- Evidence of any out-of-range laboratory value at screening that has not been
reviewed, approved and documented as not clinically significant by the Study
Investigator.

- A history of significant drug allergy or systemic allergic disease (e.g., urticaria,
atopic dermatitis), or any known/suspected hypersensitivity to any form of mazindol.

- Any other condition or clinically significant abnormal findings on the physical
examination, medical history, or clinical laboratory results during screening that,
in the opinion of the Study Investigator, would make the subject unsuitable for the
study or put them at additional risk.

- Treatment with an investigational drug within 30 days preceding the first dose of
study medication.
