This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter, 2-arm (1:1), parallel-group, efficacy and safety/tolerability fixed-dose study of SPN-812 in preschool-age children (4 to 5 years old) with ADHD. Participants will be screened for eligibility for up to 4 weeks. Eligible participants will be treated with study medication for 6 weeks. The total duration of the study is up to 10 weeks.

Change from Baseline in the Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder Rating Scale, 4th Edition, Preschool Version (ADHD-RS-IV-P) Total Score at End of Study (Week 6)
The Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder Rating Scale, 4th Edition, Preschool Version (ADHD-RS-IV-P) consists of 18 items that correspond directly to the DSM-IV-TR criteria for ADHD. The scale is subdivided into two subscales: inattention ("IA", 9 items) and hyperactivity-impulsivity ("H/I", 9 items).The clinician rates the frequency and severity of each symptom on a 4-point Likert-type scale, where 0 = Never or rarely, 1 = Sometimes, 2 = Often, and 3 = Very often. The sum of the ratings of all 18 items yields the raw Total score (range: 0-54; the higher the Total score, the more severe the ADHD symptoms). Post-baseline raw Total scores are converted to a change from baseline Total score. A lower change from baseline ADHD-RS-IV-P Total Score (\<0) represents a better outcome.
Time frame: Baseline and Week 6
Change from Baseline in the Clinical Global Impression of Severity (CGI-S) Score at End of Study (Week 6)
The Clinical Global Impression of Severity (CGI-S) is a single item clinician-rated assessment of the severity of subject's condition (ADHD symptoms) in relation to the clinician's total experience with patients with ADHD. The CGI-S is evaluated on a 7-point scale with 1 = Normal, not at all ill, asymptomatic, 2 = Borderline Ill, 3 = Mildly Ill, 4 = Moderately Ill, 5 = Markedly Ill, 6 = Severely Ill, and 7 = Among the most extremely ill patients (the higher the score, the more severe the overall ADHD symptoms). Post-baseline (raw) CGI-S scores are converted to a change from baseline score. A lower change from baseline CGI-S score (\<0) represents a better outcome.
Time frame: Baseline and Week 6
Clinical Global Impression of Change (CGI-C) Score at End of Study (Week 6)
The Clinical Global Impression of Change (CGI-C) is a single item clinician-rated assessment of how much the subject's condition (ADHD) has improved, worsened or has not changed relative to his/her baseline state prior to the beginning of treatment. The CGI-C is rated on a 7-point scale from 1 to 7, where 1 = "very much improved", 2 = "much improved", 3 = "minimally improved", 4 = "no change", 5 = "minimally worse", 6 = "much worse", and 7 = "very much worse". A CGI-C score \<4 represents a better outcome.

Change from Baseline in Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder Rating Scale, 4th Edition, Preschool Version (ADHD-RS-IV-P) Hyperactivity/Impulsivity Subscale Score at End of Study (Week 6)
The Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder Rating Scale, 4th Edition, Preschool Version (ADHD-RS-IV-P) consists of 18 items that correspond directly to the DSM-IV-TR criteria for ADHD. The scale is subdivided into two subscales: inattention ("IA", 9 items) and hyperactivity-impulsivity ("H/I" 9 items).The clinician rates the frequency and severity of each symptom on a 4-point Likert-type scale, where 0 = Never or rarely, 1 = Sometimes, 2 = Often, and 3 = Very often. The sum of the nine H/I items yields the raw H/I subscale score (range: 0-27; the higher the H/I subscale score, the more severe the H/I symptoms). Post-baseline raw H/I subscale scores are converted to a change from baseline score. A lower change from baseline H/I subscale score (\<0) represents a better outcome.

The sum of the nine IA items yields the raw IA subscale score (range: 0-27; the higher the IA subscale score, the more severe the IA symptoms). Post-baseline raw IA subscale scores are converted to a change from baseline score. A lower change from baseline IA subscale score (\<0) represents a better outcome.

Clinical Global Impression of Severity (CGI-S) Responder Rate (percentage of subjects with CGI-S score of 1 or 2) at End of Study (Week 6)
The Clinical Global Impression of Severity (CGI-S) is a single item clinician-rated assessment of the severity of subject's condition (ADHD symptoms) in relation to the clinician's total experience with patients with ADHD. The CGI-S is evaluated on a 7-point scale with 1 = Normal, not at all ill, asymptomatic, 2 = Borderline Ill, 3 = Mildly Ill, 4 = Moderately Ill, 5 = Markedly Ill, 6 = Severely Ill, and 7 = Among the most extremely ill patients. The responder rate (percent) is calculated by dividing "the number of 'responders' (m)" by "the number of subjects analyzed at the respective Visit/Week (n)" and multiplying the product by 100. Responder Rate values range from 0 to 100%. A percent \>50% represents a greater number of "responders" versus "non-responders".

Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder Rating Scale, 4th Edition, Preschool Version (ADHD-RS-IV-P) Responder Rate (percentage of subjects with ≥ 50% Reduction in Change from Baseline) at End of Study (Week 6)
The Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder Rating Scale, 4th Edition, Preschool Version (ADHD-RS-IV-P) consists of 18 items that correspond directly to the DSM-IV-TR criteria for ADHD. The scale is subdivided into two 9 item subscales: inattention and hyperactivity-impulsivity. The clinician rates the frequency and severity of each symptom on a 4-point Likert-type scale; 0 = Never or rarely, 1 = Sometimes, 2 = Often, and 3 = Very often. Sum of 18 ratings yields the Total score (range: 0-54; higher score represents severer symptoms). Percent reduction is calculated for the ADHD-RS-IV-P score: \[("Post-baseline"-"Baseline")/"Baseline"\] x 100; range: 0 to 100%; a "responder" is a subject with a 50% or greater reduction in change from baseline Total score. Responder rate (percent of responders) is calculated: \["number of 'responders' (m)"/ "number of subjects analyzed" (n)\] X 100; range: 0 to 100%. A Responder Rate greater than 50%, represents more "responders" versus "nonresponders".
