Detailed Description
This is an open-label (all people involved know the identity of the intervention), single arm, multicenter (when more than one hospital or medical school team work on a medical research study), prospective study (study following participants forward in time) to evaluate the efficacy and safety of OROS methylphenidate in participants with ADHD (behavior disorder originating in childhood in which the essential features are signs of developmentally inappropriate inattention, impulsivity, and hyperactivity). The study duration will be of 12 weeks per participant, which is divided into 2 parts Screening (within 14 days before study commences on Day -1) and treatment (8 weeks and will include titration period [from the initiation of the study treatment to determination of the individual's maintenance dose] and maintenance period [at least 4 weeks after determination of maintenance dose]). Participants will receive initial dose depending on their body weight. OROS methylphenidate hydrochloride (HCL) will be given orally once daily at an initial dose of 18 milligram (mg) for participants below 30 kilogram (kg) and 27 mg for those over 30 kg of body weight. The dose will be increased by 9 mg or 18 mg every week for up to Week 8, followed by a maximum maintenance dose of 54 mg orally once daily up to Week 12 during which the dose can be decreased by 9 mg depending on tolerability. Efficacy will be evaluated by Korean Version, ADHD Rating Scale (K-ARS) total score and Clinical Global Impression)-Severity / Impression rating scale CGI-S/I. Participants safety will be monitored throughout the trial.

K-ARS measures the 18 symptoms based on Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders-forth edition (DSM-IV 1994). Individual item scores range from 0 (none/never or rarely) to 3 (severe/very often), whereas the rating of 2 points or more was regarded as abnormal. Total scores range from 0 (no symptoms) to 54 (highly symptomatic), higher score indicates worsening of condition.
- Number of Participants With Response Based on K-ARS Total Score at Week 12 [Week 12]
Response is defined as at least 25 percent (%) decrease in total score of K-ARS compared to baseline. K-ARS measures the 18 symptoms based on DSM-IV (1994). Individual item scores range from 0 (none/never or rarely) to 3 (severe/very often), whereas the rating of 2 points or more was regarded as abnormal. Total scores range from 0 (no symptoms) to 54 (highly symptomatic), higher score indicates worsening of condition.
- Number of Participants With Remission Based on K-ARS Total Score and Clinical Global Impression - Improvement (CGI-I) Scale Score at Week 12 [Week 12]
Remission is defined by all of the following criteria; 1) K-ARS Total score of 18 or less. 2) "Very much improved" or "Much improved" in CGI-I. K-ARS total score ranges from 0 (no symptoms) to 54 (highly symptomatic), higher score indicates worsening of condition. CGI-I is a 7-point scale ranging from 1 to 7, where 1=very much improved; 2=much improved; 3=minimally improved; 4=no change; 5=minimally worse; 6=much worse; 7=very much worse, higher score indicates worsening of condition.

Each question has a set of 4 possible answer choices, ranging in intensity, each answer being scored on a scale value of 0 (no symptom) to 3 (the most severe symptom). Accordingly, the total score ranges from 0 (no symptom) to 63 (the most severe symptom) for 21 questions.
- Change From Baseline in Parenting Stress Index (PSI) Total Score at Week 12 [Baseline and Week 12]
Parenting Stress Index (PSI) was designed to assess parent or guardian child-rearing stress index on a 5-rating scale from "never" to "very truly". Out of 30 items, 20 items are scored, being consisted of 8 child characteristics-related stress items; 9 parent-child interaction-related stress items; and 3 achievement expectation-related stress items. A possible total score ranges from 20 to 100; Increase in score indicates higher stress perceived by the parent.
- Change From Baseline in Clinical Global Impression-severity (CGI-S) Score at Week 12 [Baseline and Week 12]
The CGI-S rating scale is a 7 point global assessment that measures the clinician's impression of the severity of illness exhibited by a participant. A rating of 1 is equivalent to "Normal, not at all ill" and a rating of 7 is equivalent to "Among the most extremely ill participants". Higher change scores indicate worsening.
- Clinical Global Impression - Improvement (CGI-I) Scale Score at Week 12 [Week 12]
The CGI-I is a 7-point scale that requires the clinician to assess how much the participant's illness has improved or worsened relative to a baseline state at the beginning of the intervention and rated as: 1=very much improved; 2=much improved; 3=minimally improved; 4=no change; 5=minimally worse; 6=much worse; 7=very much worse. Improved very much, Improved much and Improved a little are defined as improvement and No change, Aggravated a little, Aggravated much and Aggravated very much were defined as aggravation.
