This is a randomized, double-blind, double-dummy, placebo- and active-controlled 4 period, 4 way crossover study to assess the intranasal abuse potential of manipulated ADAIR formulation in nondependent, recreational stimulant users. The study will consist of an outpatient Screening Visit, an in clinic Qualification Phase, an in-clinic Treatment Phase, and an outpatient Follow-Up visit.
VAL-104 is a phase 1, randomized, double-blind, double-dummy, placebo- and active-controlled 4 period, 4 way crossover study to assess the intranasal abuse potential of manipulated ADAIR formulation in nondependent, recreational stimulant users. The study objectives include assessing the pharmacodynamics (PD), pharmacokinetics (PK), safety and tolerability of manipulated ADAIR 30mg when compared to crushed d-amphetamine sulfate and placebo. The primary PD endpoint is mean maximum drug liking (Emax) on a bipolar 100mm visual analog scale. A total of 64 subjects demonstrating a confirmed positive response to stimulants will enter the treatment phase. Safety will be assess via adverse events, vital signs, ECGs, clinical laboratory tests and Columbia Suicide Severity Rating Scale (C-SSRS).
