Summary Statement of the Proposal for Inclusion of Methylphenidate Methylphenidate (MPH), a central nervous system (CNS) stimulant, of the phenethylamine class, is proposed for inclusion in the WHO Model List of Essential Medications (EML) & the Model List of Essential Medications for Children (EMLc) for treatment of Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) under ICD-11, 6C9Z mental, behavioral or neurodevelopmental disorder, disruptive behavior or dissocial disorders. To date, the list of essential medications does not include stimulants, which play a critical role in the treatment of psychotic disorders. Methylphenidate is proposed for inclusion on the complimentary list for both children and adults. This application provides a systematic review of the use, efficacy, safety, availability, and cost-effectiveness of methylphenidate compared with other stimulant (first-line) and non-stimulant (second-line) medications.

However, there is a strong correlation between enhanced noradrenergic activity Research, University of Ottawa, Ottawa, ON, Canada and fear and anxiety. Consequently, some physicians have expressed concerns that the same enhanced noradrenergic activity that alleviates depression could also promote anxiety. The fact that the serotonergic and noradrenergic reuptake inhibitors are successfully used in the treatment For personal use only. of anxiety and panic disorders seems paradoxical. This review was undertaken to determine if any clinical evidence exists to show that serotonergic and noradrenergic reuptake inhibitors can cause anxiety.

  • Lilly Announces Edivoxetine Did Not Meet Primary Endpoint of Phase III Clinical Studies As Add-On Therapy for Major Depressive Disorder
    December 5, 2013 Lilly Announces Edivoxetine Did Not Meet Primary Endpoint of Phase III Clinical Studies as Add-On Therapy for Major Depressive Disorder INDIANAPOLIS, Dec. 5, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Eli Lilly and Company (NYSE: LLY) announced today that results from three studies of edivoxetine did not meet the primary study objective of superior efficacy in depression after eight weeks of treatment. When added to a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI), edivoxetine did not separate from placebo on the Montgomery- Asberg Depression Rating Scale (MADRS) in three acute randomized placebo-controlled Phase III studies (LNBM, LNBQ and LNBR). While the safety and tolerability of edivoxetine was consistent with previous studies, the efficacy results do not support a regulatory submission for adjunctive treatment in patients with Major Depressive Disorder (MDD). Data from all three studies will be disclosed in appropriate scientific forums in 2014. In 2010, Lilly launched the Phase III program for edivoxetine — a potent and highly selective norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor — to assess the benefits and risks of edivoxetine as an add-on therapy in patients with MDD. The Phase III program specifically focused on meeting the unmet needs of patients with major depression who had achieved only a partial response to treatment with an SSRI. In these three trials, patients remained on SSRI treatment and additionally received either edivoxetine or placebo. "Lilly undertook a robust Phase III program to address a significant unmet need for people suffering from depression," said David Ricks, senior vice president, and president, Lilly Bio-Medicines. "However, the lack of efficacy compared to SSRI alone in three separate clinical trials means that Lilly will not proceed with development of edivoxetine as an add-on treatment for depression." The ongoing clinical study evaluating the long-term maintenance effect of edivoxetine will continue to completion.

The findings and conclusions in this document are those of the authors, who are responsible for its content, and do not necessarily represent the views of AHRQ. No statement in this report should be construed as an official position of AHRQ or of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. A novel intervention may not appear in this report simply because the System has not yet detected it. The list of novel interventions in the Horizon Scanning Status Update Report will change over time as new information is collected. This should not be construed as either endorsements or rejections of specific interventions. As topics are entered into the System, individual target technology reports are developed for those that appear to be closer to diffusion into practice in the United States. A representative from AHRQ served as a Contracting Officer’s Technical Representative and provided input during the implementation of the horizon scanning system. AHRQ did not directly participate in the horizon scanning, assessing the leads or topics, or provide opinions regarding potential impact of interventions.
