Managing ADHD symptoms in autistic children with a study plan
Part of Mental health clinical trials.
This Phase 4 study looks at how to manage ADHD symptoms in children and teens who also have autism. It may help your child’s care team learn what treatment routines work best in real life settings.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This trial tests if a mixed amphetamine medication helps teenagers with both autism and ADHD who still have significant symptoms, even if they are already on other treatments. It also includes typically developing teens as a comparison group.
This study tests whether brain wave recordings (EEG) can help predict how well children with ADHD will respond to stimulant medications. It aims to find the best treatment faster, potentially reducing the guesswork in choosing the right medication.
This pilot study tests a remote monitoring program (RAMP) for children with ADHD who are starting or restarting stimulant medication. It aims to see if using a smartphone app to track symptoms helps providers and families manage care.
This Phase 2 study tests whether diphenhydramine improves sleep in children with autism who have significant sleep problems. It requires sleep monitoring (watch data and sleep testing) and checking for side effects to see if the treatment is safe and helpful.
This Phase 2 study tests whether a single dose of N-acetylcysteine can improve “restricted and repetitive behaviors” in children with autism. It’s meant for kids who are stable and still in early puberty stages.
This trial studies whether N-acetylcysteine, a medicine taken by mouth, can improve autism-related restricted and repetitive behaviors in children. It looks at children who are showing at least moderate severity in these behaviors and may involve brain testing for safety reasons.
