The main instrument used to assess efficacy was the Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder Rating Scale-IV-Japanese Version (ADHD RS-IV-J) (DuPaul et al. 1998; Yamazaki et al. 2001), an 18-item scale with 1 item for each of the 18 symptoms contained in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fourth Edition (DSM-IV) diagnosis of ADHD (APA 1994). This scale when used by investigators was designated as the ADHD RS-IV-J:I rating scale. The same scale was also used by the patients' teachers to assess symptoms in the classroom setting; this was designated as the ADHD RS-IV-J:School rating scale. The clinician assessment Clinical Global Impressions-Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder-Severity (CGI-AD/HD-S) was used as another measure of efficacy (Guy 1976; NIMH 1985). The primary efficacy variable used to evaluate atomoxetine treatment was ADHD RS-IV- J:I/School (Sch) total score, a comprehensive assessment in which the primary efficacy measure, the ADHD RS-IV-J:I rating scale, was administered and scored by the investigator in conjunction with teacher scores on the ADHD RS-IV-J:School rating scale. The ADHD RS-IV-J:I total score, ADHD RS-IV-J:School total score and CGI- ADHD-S assessment were used as secondary efficacy variables. Secondary objectives included comparing the efficacy of each of the above 3-fixed atomoxetine dose ranges with one another and with placebo, comparing the safety of

2 CT Registry ID# 5285 Page 2 these 3 dose ranges with that of placebo, and evaluating the plasma concentration of atomoxetine and its main metabolites with respect to dose and patient ability to metabolize atomoxetine based on their CYP2D6 genotype (i.e., EM: Extensive metabolizers, IM: Intermediate metabolizers, PM: Poor metabolizers). The main results of this study were as follows: 1.8 mg/kg/day was shown to be statistically significant compared with placebo in ameliorating ADHD symptoms in Japanese pediatric ADHD patients (ADHD RS-IV-J:I/Sch total score: p=0.010/one-sided; ADHD RS-IV-J:I total score: p=0.008/one-sided). The low 0.5 mg/kg/day dose and intermediate 1.2 mg/kg/day dose were not found to be statistically significant in ameliorating ADHD symptoms compared with placebo. A statistically significant linear dose response in efficacy was seen with increasing atomoxetine dose (ADHD RS-IV-J:I/Sch total score: p=0.008; ADHD RS-IV-J:I total score: p=0.007; ADHD RS-IV- J:School total score: p=0.026). Measurement of the secondary efficacy variables ADHD RS-IV- J:School total score and CGI-ADHD-S assessment did not show any statistically significant difference between atomoxetine treatment and placebo. Analysis of laboratory analytes did not reveal any pattern of abnormalities associated with atomoxetine administration. No deaths occurred during this study. Two patients discontinued the study due to adverse events. One SAE was reported during the course of the study: hospitalization (twice) due to vomiting and headache. This patient recovered and completed the study. The most commonly reported treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs; 10%) in all atomoxetine treatment groups were nasopharyngitis (15.8% : 29/183), headache (14.2% : 26/183), and decreased appetite (12% : 22/183). Two adverse events above the 5% level in patients given atomoxetine were statistically significant: decreased appetite in 12% (22/183 : p<0.001) and vomiting in 8.2% (15/183 : p=0.022). Statistically significant (p<0.05) increases in mean diastolic blood pressure and heart rate (pulse) were observed at all atomoxetine doses. A statistically significant dose response (p<0.001) was also observed for diastolic blood pressure and heart rate.

3 CT Registry ID# 5285 Page 3 No statistically significant increases in mean QTc interval (Fridericia, Data Driven corrections) were found for any of the atomoxetine treatment groups. All mean increases seen with these two corrections were below 5 msec. Neither the Fridericia nor the Data Driven correction gave any evidence of an atomoxetine linear dose response in QTc mean change. Analysis of categorical changes in QTc interval (Fridericia, Data Driven corrections) detected statistically significant trends in QTc prolongation 30 msec in 15 (8.2%) patients (Fridericia: p=0.015) and 16 (8.7%) patients (Driven Driven: p=0.034) from the atomoxetine treatment groups. However, there were no prolongation times longer than 450 msec, and none longer than 60 msec. There were no adverse events or study discontinuations related to QTc interval prolongation. There were no study discontinuations and no evidence of differences in tolerability among patients with decreased efficiency to metabolize atomoxetine (IM and PM patients with respect to CYP2D6 genotype). Title of Study: Investigator(s): A Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Efficacy and Safety Comparison of Fixed-Dose Ranges of Hydrochloride in Child Outpatients with Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder This multicenter study included 41 principal investigators. Study Center(s): This study was conducted at 41 study centers in one country. Length of Study: 1 year 7 months Date first patient enrolled: 22 February 2005 Date last patient completed: 29 September 2006 Phase of Development: 2/3 Objectives: Primary objective: To test the efficacy of atomoxetine treatment in reducing the severity of Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) symptoms in Japanese children and adolescents who were at least 6 years of age but less than 18 years of age by testing 1.8, 1.2, and 0.5 mg/kg/day doses of atomoxetine compared sequentially with placebo as measured by the ADHD RS-IV-J:I/Sch total score. Secondary objectives: (1)To compare the safety of 3 fixed-dose ranges of atomoxetine with that of placebo. (2)To assess the relationship between atomoxetine dose and both efficacy and safety. (3)To compare the efficacy of each of 3 fixed doses of atomoxetine with one another and with placebo in children who have not had prior treatment with psychostimulants. (4)To evaluate the plasma concentration of atomoxetine, 4-hydroxyatomoxetine, and N-desmethylatomoxetine with respect to dose and cytochrome P450 2D6 (CYP2D6) metabolic status.

Study Design: Randomized, double blind, placebo-controlled study (Figure LYBC.1) Number of Patients: Planned: per treatment group (4 groups): placebo atomoxetine 0.5 mg/kg/day atomoxetine 1.2 mg/kg/day atomoxetine 1.8 mg/kg/day Randomized: 245 placebo 62 atomoxetine 0.5 mg/kg/day: 62 atomoxetine 1.2 mg/kg/day: 60 atomoxetine 1.8 mg/kg/day: 61 Completed: 234 placebo: 61 (173: atomoxetine) atomoxetine 0.5 mg/kg/day: 60 atomoxetine 1.2 mg/kg/day: 57 atomoxetine 1.8 mg/kg/day: 56 Diagnosis and Main Criteria for Inclusion: Japanese male and female patients who were at least 6 but less than 18 years of age and who met the criteria for ADHD found in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (APA 1994) and in the Kiddie Schedule for Affective Disorders and Schizophrenia for School Aged Children-Present and Lifetime Version: Behavioral Disorders Supplement (K-SADS-PL: Behavioral) module (Kaufman et al. 1997). Study Drug, Dose, and Mode of Administration: hydrochloride 4 capsule sizes : 2.5 mg, 5 mg, 10 mg, 20 mg Combination of capsules given orally twice a day to provide target daily dosage based on patient body weight. Reference Therapy, Dose, and Mode of Administration: Placebo: Identical in appearance and administration to study drug. Duration of Treatment: 56 days (planned) days (allowed) Variables: Efficacy: Primary: ADHD RS-IV-J:I/Sch total score Secondary: ADHD RS-IV-J:I total score ADHD RS-IV-J:School total score CGI-AD/HD-S (clinician assessment) Safety: Adverse events, clinical laboratory tests, vital signs, electrocardiograms Pharmacokinetic: Concentrations (atomoxetine and its metabolites: 4-hydroxyatomoxetine, and N- desmethylatomoxetine)

5 CT Registry ID# 5285 Page 5 Evaluation Methods: Statistical: The primary efficacy variable was the change from baseline to last observation carried forward (LOCF) endpoint in the ADHD RS-IV-J:I/Sch total score. ADHD RS-IV-J:I/Sch was defined as the ADHD RS-IV-J:I total score assessed in conjunction with the ADHD RS-IV-J:School total score collected at the same time for a specific visit. For the primary efficacy analysis the Williams test was performed to compare sequentially 1.8 mg/kg/day, 1.2 mg/kg/day, and 0.5 mg/kg/day doses of atomoxetine with placebo in order to determine the minimum effective dose. Statistical significance was p<0.025 (one-sided William's test). Statistical significance in all other tests was two-sided, p<0.05. Pharmacokinetic: Blood samples taken with a sparse sampling approach were evaluated by population pharmacokinetics to characterize the pharmacokinetics of atomoxetine, 4-hydroxyatomoxetine, and N-desmethylatomoxetine. Plasma atomoxetine concentrations together with patient characteristics were evaluated using the nonlinear mixed effects modeling program (NONMEM) and graphical analyses. Pharmacokinetics of 4-hydroxyatomoxetine and N- desmethylatomoxetine were evaluated using graphical methods only. Results: Study Design Study LYBC comprised two study periods (Figure LYBC.1): Study Period I: Screening, Medication Washout, and Assessment Study Period II: Randomized, Double-Blind Acute Treatment Patients who met entry criteria completed an initial washout, screening, and assessment period of days (Study Period I). This was then followed by approximately 8 weeks of acute treatment (Study Period II). At the end of this period dosages were abruptly discontinued.

Study design. Patient Demographics Table LYBC.1 shows patient demographics at baseline for the 243 patients in the Full Analysis Set (FAS: see section on Efficacy). All of the treatment groups were balanced with respect to patient demographics with no major imbalances among treatment groups for any characteristic. Patients ranged from 6 to 17 years of age (mean: years). There were 155 (85.6%) males and 26 (14.4%) females in the atomoxetine treatment groups, and of these 181 patients, 100 (55.2%) had prior stimulant use. Two (1.1%) of the patients in the atomoxetine treatment groups were classified as poor metabolizers (PM) with respect to CYP2D6 genotype: 1 patient in the low dose group (atomoxetine 0.5 mg/kg/day) and 1 in the intermediate dose group (atomoxetine 1.2 mg/kg/day). With regards to ADHD subtype, 61.3% (149/243) of the patients were Inattentive, 4.5% (11/243) Hyperactive/Impulsive, and 34.2% (83/243) Mixed. The severity of disease at baseline for all patients in the Full Analysis Set is summarized in Table LYBC.2. All of the treatment groups were well balanced for each measure of disease severity. No statistically significant difference between groups in mean baseline score was seen for any measure. In order to better understand the effect of CYP2D6 genotype on the metabolism, efficacy, and safety of atomoxetine, two IM (intermediate metabolizer) patient categories (Category 1, Category 2) based on CYP2D6 allele type were defined as subsets of the EM (extensive metabolizer) patients. The number of EM, IM, and PM patients in each treatment group for the Full Analysis Set is shown in Table LYBC.3 by metabolizer type.

7 CT Registry ID# 5285 Page 7 No statistically significant difference was observed between treatment groups with respect to the number of EM / IM / PM patients in each group.

14 CT Registry ID# 5285 Page 14 Efficacy Datasets analyzed for efficacy are shown in Figure LYBC.3. All efficacy analyses were performed for patients who met the study inclusion criteria, took at least one dose of the study medication, and had a baseline and post-baseline measurement. This set of patients was designated as the Full Analysis Set (FAS). All randomized patients (245) met the study inclusion criteria, took at least one dose of the study medication (placebo or atomoxetine), and had a baseline and post-baseline measurement. Two of these patients took prohibited drugs prior to the first visit after randomization and were excluded from the efficacy analysis. Thus, 243 patients were included in the efficacy analysis. These patients comprised the Full Analysis Set. Only ADHD RS-IV-J:I scores that were used to assess patients in conjunction with teacher scores on the ADHD RS-IV-J:School rating scale were included in the primary efficacy analysis. These were designated as ADHD RS-IV-J:I/Sch scores, and only patients with these scores for Visit 2 and at least their final visit (Visit 6, or prior visit LOCF) were included in the ADHD RS-IV-J:I/Sch data set. Two of the 243 patients included in the Full Analysis Set lacked either baseline or post-baseline scores on the ADHD RS-IV-J:School rating scale and were thus excluded from the ADHD RS-IV- J:I/Sch data set. Therefore, 241 patients were included in the primary efficacy analysis (ADHD RS-IV-J:I/Sch data set).

Table LYBC.5 contains the mean baseline, endpoint (LOCF), and change from baseline to endpoint in mean ADHD RS-IV-J:I/Sch total score. 1.8 mg/kg/day showed a statistically significant overall improvement in mean change of ADHD RS-IV- J:I/Sch total score from baseline to endpoint (-11.6: SD=8.8, p=0.010/one-sided) compared with placebo. There was no statistically significant difference between atomoxetine 1.2 mg/kg/day and placebo. However, decreases from baseline in mean

Secondary Outcome Measures The principal secondary efficacy variables were: ADHD RS-IV-J:I total score ADHD RS-IV-J:School total score CGI-AD/HD-S clinician assessment.

19 CT Registry ID# 5285 Page 19 In order to better understand the effect of atomoxetine on inattention symptoms compared with hyperactivity-impulsivity symptoms, the following subscale scale scores were also used as secondary efficacy variables: ADHD RS-IV-J:I/Sch Inattentive subscale score ADHD RS-IV-J:I/Sch Hyperactive/Impulsive subscale score ADHD RS-IV-J:I Inattentive subscale score ADHD RS-IV-J:I Hyperactive/Impulsive subscale score ADHD RS-IV-J:School Inattentive subscale score ADHD RS-IV-J:School Hyperactive/Impulsive subscale score The 18-item ADHD RS-IV-J:I rating scale is designed such that odd-numbered items focus on inattention symptoms and even-numbered items on hyperactivity-impulsive symptoms. Total scores for these specific subsets were used for the above subscale scores. The following results were obtained for secondary measure outcomes: A statistically significant decrease from baseline in mean ADHD RS-IV-J:I/Sch Inattentive subscale score (p=0.019/one-sided) compared with placebo was seen in the atomoxetine 1.8 mg/kg/day group (Table LYBC.5). Statistically significant decreases from baseline in both mean ADHD RS-IV-J:I total score (p=0.008/one-sided) and mean ADHD RS-IV-J:I Inattentive subscale score (p=0.016/one-sided) compared with placebo were seen in the atomoxetine 1.8 mg/kg/day group (Table LYBC.6). A statistically significant (p 0.05) linear dose response with increasing atomoxetine dose was observed for all secondary measure outcomes with the exception of ADHD RS-IV-J:School Hyperactive/Impulsive subscale score and CGI-AD/HD-S clinician assessment (Tables LYBC.5~8). No statistically significant differences from baseline were seen in mean ADHD RS-IV-J:School total score, nor were any seen in mean ADHD RS-IV-J:School Inattentive or Hyperactive/Impulsive subscale scores compared with placebo (Table LYBC.7). No statistically significant differences were seen in mean CGI-AD/HD-S change from baseline (Table LYBC.8).

23 CT Registry ID# 5285 Page 23 Safety Of the 245 patients who entered this study, 183 received at least one dose of atomoxetine. There were no patient deaths. One SAE was reported: hospitalization (twice) due to headache and vomiting. Two patients discontinued the study because of adverse events (affect lability and headache). Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events TEAEs were those adverse events that emerged or deteriorated during the study drug administration period. Table LYBC.9 summarizes TEAEs that occurred in at least 5% of patients who took at least one dose of study medication (placebo or atomoxetine). At least one TEAE was reported for 78.7% (144/183) of the patients given atomoxetine. The most commonly reported events ( 10%) in all atomoxetine treatment groups were nasopharyngitis, headache, and decreased appetite. Two adverse events above the 5% level were found to have a statistically significant (p<0.05) relationship to dose: decreased appetite in 12% (22/183 : p<0.001) and vomiting in 8.2% (15/183 : p=0.022) of patients given atomoxetine. Treatment-Emergent Adverse Drug Reactions (ADRs) ADRs were those TEAEs indicated by the investigator to be related or possibly related to atomoxetine administration. Table LYBC.10 summarizes ADRs that occurred in at least 5% of patients who took at least one dose of study medication. At least one ADR was reported for 50.3% (92/183) of the patients given atomoxetine. In these patients the ADR incidence rate was found to have a statistically significant relationship (p=0.003) with increasing atomoxetine dose. The most commonly reported ADRs ( 10%) were decreased appetite and headache. Decreased appetite in 11.5% (21/183) of the atomoxetine-treated patients was found to have a statistically significant (p<0.001) dose response.

26 CT Registry ID# 5285 Page 26 Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) One SAE was reported during the course of the study: an 8-year old Japanese male randomized to the atomoxetine 1.8 mg/kg/day group was hospitalized twice due to headache and vomiting. The patient recovered from these events and completed the study. Study Discontinuations Due to Adverse Events Two patients discontinued the study because of adverse events: a 10-year-old Japanese male (atomoxetine 1.8 mg/kg/day group; affect lability), and a 14-year-old Japanese female (atomoxetine 1.2 mg/kg/day group; headache). Clinical Laboratory Values As determined by the Sponsor, analysis of laboratory analytes did not reveal any pattern of abnormalities associated with atomoxetine administration. Vital Signs Mean change from baseline to LOCF endpoint in vital sign measures are shown in Table LYBC.11. There were no study discontinuations related to changes in vital signs. A statistically significant (p<0.05) increase in mean diastolic blood pressure from baseline to endpoint was observed for all atomoxetine doses. The difference between treatment groups was statistically significant (p=0.003), and the dose-response was found to have a statistically significant (p<0.001) linear component. A statistically significant linear dose-response (p=0.029) was also observed for mean systolic blood pressure. No statistically significant difference was found between treatment groups. A statistically significant (p 0.001) increase was also observed in mean heart rate (pulse) for all atomoxetine doses. The difference between treatment groups was statistically significant (p<0.001) as was the linearity of the dose response (p<0.001). These results were not unexpected given the pharmacologic action of this drug. With regards to mean height, a statistically significant dose response was observed with the quadratic contrast from the ANCOVA model (p=0.036). However, there was no statistically significant difference between treatment groups. Changes in mean weight among treatment groups and the linearity of dose response were both statistically significant (p<0.001). When baseline and endpoint values were compared, statistically significant decreases in weight were seen for both the atomoxetine 1.2 mg/kg/day (p=0.002) and 1.8 mg/kg/day (p<0.001) groups. Dose response was also found to have a statistically significant (p<0.001) linear component.

29 CT Registry ID# 5285 Page 29 Table LYBC.12 summarizes the categorical analysis results of changes in blood pressure (systolic and diastolic), heart rate (pulse), and weight for atomoxetine- and placebotreated patients. For each criterion the percentage of patients meeting the criteria in a treatment-emergent manner (at any Study Period II visit) was computed for each treatment group. With the exception of systolic and diastolic blood pressure, all trends were statistically significant (p<0.05). Increased heart rate (pulse) was not unexpected due to atomoxetine s noradrenergic mechanism of action.

31 CT Registry ID# 5285 Page 31 Electrocardiograms Summaries of the mean change from baseline to LOCF endpoint in electrocardiogram (ECG) intervals and heart rate are shown in Table LYBC.13. Mean increases in heart rate were observed for all atomoxetine treatment groups compared with placebo. These leveled off at atomoxetine 1.2 mg/kg/day, but all increases were statistically significant (p<0.05). Differences between treatment groups were also statistically significant (p<0.001). Relative to placebo, all doses of atomoxetine were also associated with mean decreases in QT interval. On the other hand, the Bazett correction for QT interval, showed a statistically significant (p<0.05) prolongation of the mean QTc interval for each atomoxetine treatment group. However, for drugs associated with increased heart rate, the Bazett correction is known to over-correct for heart rate effects. In this case the Fridericia or Data Driven correction is more appropriate. Analyses of the ECG results using the Fridericia correction showed a mean decrease in QT interval for the atomoxetine 1.2 mg/kg/day and 1.8 mg/kg/day groups. A 2.07 msec prolongation was still seen in the atomoxetine 0.5 mg/kg/day group, but this was less than half of that seen with the Bazett correction. Data driven correction resulted in mean increases of QTc interval for all atomoxetine treatment groups, but none of the observed increases were found to be statistically significant, either with the Data Driven or Fridericia correction. All mean increases seen with either of these two QT interval corrections were below 5 msec. Also, unlike the Bazett correction, neither the Fridericia nor the Data Driven correction gave any evidence of a statistically significant linear dose response. Table LYBC.14 summarizes categorical changes in QTc intervals using Food and Drug Administration (FDA) criteria. Even though statistically significant trends were observed for criterion D (increase from baseline 30 msec) for both the Fridericia (p=0.015) and Data Driven (p=0.034) corrected QTc intervals, no cases were reported for a QTc interval >450 msec (criteria A, B, C), nor were any cases reported for a QTc increase from baseline 60 msec (criteria E). The number of patients in the atomoxetine treatment groups with QTc prolongation between 30 msec and 60 msec seen with both correction methods were: Fridericia (8.2% : 15/183), Data Driven (8.7% : 16/183). No serious adverse events due to QTc interval prolongation were reported during the study.
