Lisdexamfetamine and binge-eating disorder: A systematic review and meta-analysis of the preclinical and clinical data with a focus on mechanism of drug action in treating the disorder.
Binge-Eating Disorder (BED) is the most common eating disorder in the United States. Lisdexamfetamine (LDX) was approved in 2015 by the FDA for treatment of BED and is the only drug approved for treating the disorder. There has been no systematic evaluation of the published clinical and preclinical evidence for efficacy of LDX in treating BED and the mechanisms responsible for the therapeutic action of the drug. To address this gap, we conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis using PRISMA guidelines. Fourteen clinical and seven preclinical articles were included. There is consistent evidence from clinical studies that LDX is an effective treatment for BED and that the drug reduces the BED symptoms and body weight of patients with the disorder. There is also consistent evidence from preclinical studies that LDX reduces food intake but no consistent evidence for a preferential reduction of palatable food consumption by the drug in rodents. The evidence on mechanism of action is more limited and suggests LDX may reduce binge eating by a combination of effects on appetite/satiety, reward, and cognitive processes, including attention and impulsivity/inhibition, that are mediated by catecholamine and serotonin mechanisms in the brain. There is an urgent need for adequately powered, placebo-controlled, behavioural and neuroimaging studies with LDX (recruiting patients and/or individuals with subclinical BED symptoms) to further investigate the mechanism of action of the drug in treating BED. An improved understanding of the behavioural and neurochemical mechanisms of action of LDX could lead to the development of improved drug therapies to treat BED.

Long-Term Safety and Efficacy of Lisdexamfetamine Dimesylate in Children and Adolescents with ADHD: A Phase IV, 2-Year, Open-Label Study in Europe.
Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is increasingly recognized as a persistent disorder requiring long-term management.. Our objective was to evaluate the 2-year safety and efficacy of lisdexamfetamine dimesylate (LDX) in children and adolescents with ADHD.. Participants (aged 6-17 years) with ADHD received open-label, dose-optimized LDX 30, 50, or 70 mg/day for 104 weeks. Safety monitoring included treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs), vital signs, electrocardiography, and growth. The TEAEs decreased appetite, weight decrease, insomnia events (including insomnia, initial insomnia, middle insomnia, and terminal insomnia), headache, and psychiatric TEAEs were pre-defined as being of special interest. Efficacy was assessed as a secondary objective using the ADHD Rating Scale IV (ADHD-RS-IV), the Clinical Global Impressions-Improvement (CGI-I) scale, and the CGI-Severity (CGI-S) scale.. The safety profile of LDX in this longer-term study was similar to that reported in previous studies. The efficacy of LDX was maintained throughout the 2-year study period. CLINICALTRIALS..

Lisdexamfetamine dimesylate in binge eating disorder: a placebo controlled trial.
To evaluate lisdexamfetamine dimesylate (LDX) in the treatment of binge eating disorder (BED).. Fifty participants with BED received LDX (20-70 mg/day) (n = 25) or placebo (n = 25) for up to 12 weeks in a single-center, randomized, double-blind, and flexible-dose trial. The primary outcome measure was binge eating (BE) days/week.. In the primary longitudinal analysis, compared with placebo, LDX was not associated with a significantly greater rate of reduction in BE days/week, as well as BE episodes/week, and scores on the Clinical Global Impression-Severity or Yale-Brown Obsessive-Compulsive Scale modified for binge eating scales. It was, however, associated with significantly decreased weight, body mass index, and fasting triglyceride level. In the secondary last observation carried forward analyses, LDX was associated with statistically significant reductions in BE days/week, BE episodes/week, weight, and BMI, as well as a statistically significant greater level of categorical response and global improvement. The mean (standard deviation) LDX daily dose at endpoint evaluation was 59.6 (14.9) mg. One participant discontinued LDX for a serious adverse cardiovascular event, which resolved fully.. Lisdexamfetamine dimesylate may have clinical utility for BED but further studies of its efficacy, tolerability, and safety in this population are needed. Copyright © 2016 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

The effect of lisdexamfetamine dimesylate on body weight, metabolic parameters, and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder symptomatology in adults with bipolar I/II disorder.
We primarily sought to determine the effect of adjunctive lisdexamfetamine dimesylate (LDX) on anthropometric and metabolic parameters. Our secondary aim was to evaluate the effect of LDX on attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) symptom severity in adults with bipolar I/II disorder.. Forty-five stable adults (i.e., non-rapid cycling, absence of clinically significant hypo/manic symptoms) with bipolar I/II disorder and comorbid ADHD were enrolled in a phase IV, 4-week, flexible dose, open-label study of adjunctive LDX. All subjects were initiated at 30 mg/day of adjunctive LDX for the first week with flexible dosing (i.e., 30-70 mg/day) between weeks 2 and 4.. Of the 45 subjects enrolled, 40 received adjunctive LDX (mean dose = 60 ± 10 mg/day). A statistically significant decrease from baseline to endpoint was evident in weight (p < 0.001), body mass index (p < 0.001), fasting total cholesterol (p = 0.011), low density lipoprotein cholesterol (p = 0.044), high density lipoprotein cholesterol (p = 0.015) but not triglycerides, or blood glucose. Significant reductions were also observed in leptin (p = 0.047), but not in ghrelin, adiponectin, or resistin levels. Diastolic blood pressure and pulse increased significantly over time but on average remained within the normal range (p < 0.001). There was a significant reduction from baseline to endpoint in the total score of the ADHD Self-Report Scale. Significant improvement from baseline to endpoint was also observed in the Montgomery-Åsberg Depression Rating Scale total score as well as the Clinical Global Impression Severity and Improvement score.. Short-term adjunctive LDX treatment was well tolerated by this sample of adults with stable bipolar I/II disorder. Lisdexamfetamine dimesylate offered beneficial effects on body weight, body mass index and several metabolic parameters. In addition to demonstrating short-term (i.e., 4 weeks) safety and tolerability, beneficial effects of LDX were also observed in mitigating depressive and ADHD symptom severity.

Lisdexamfetamine suppresses instrumental and consummatory behaviors supported by foods with varying degrees of palatability: Exploration of a binge-like eating model.
Diets high in sugar or fat are associated with multiple health conditions, including binge eating disorder (BED). BED affects approximately 2% of the US adult population, and occurs more frequently in females. It is important to develop animal models of palatable food consumption and food seeking that may have relevance for BED and other conditions associated with excessive food intake. The catecholamine uptake blocker and d-amphetamine prodrug lisdexamfetamine is used to treat BED. The present experiments studied the effect of lisdexamfetamine on food intake and food-reinforced effort-based choice in female Wistar rats. Three groups of rats received different food exposure conditions in the home cage randomly spread over several weeks: a chocolate exposure group (CE; brief access of chocolate and additional lab chow, n = 15), a lab chow exposure (LChE) group given additional access to lab chow (n = 8), and a third group given empty food dishes (n = 7). In tests of food intake under non-restricted conditions, lisdexamfetamine (0.1875-1.5 mg/kg IP) significantly reduced intake of both chocolate and chow in the CE group. In the LChE group, there was a trend towards reduced chow intake induced by lisdexamfetamine. All rats were trained on a Progressive Ratio/chow feeding choice task, in which they had a choice between working for high carbohydrate chocolate flavored pellets by lever pressing vs. approaching and consuming a concurrently available lab chow. The LChE group and the empty food dish group were combined to create one control group (n = 15). There was a significant overall dose-related suppressive effect of lisdexamfetamine on lever pressing but no group difference, and no dose x group interaction. Lisdexamfetamine significantly decreased chow intake in the CE group, but not in the control group. In conclusion, lisdexamfetamine affected both food intake and food-reinforced operant behavior, with larger effects seen in the group exposed to chocolate.

The effects of the prodrug Vyvanse on spatial working memory and adiposity in rats.
The present study investigated the influence of Vyvanse (lisdexamfetamine), a psychomotor stimulant, on spatial working memory, body weight, and adiposity in rats. Control and experimental rats were placed in individual cages equipped with a running wheel, and food and water were provided ad-libitum. The study was divided into three periods: 1) habituation, 2) experimental, and 3) withdrawal. Control rats received a placebo in periods 1, 2 and 3, while experimental rats received a placebo in periods 1 and 3. Experimental rats received a treatment of Vyvanse in place of the placebo during period 2. Spatial working memory was examined by utilizing the methodology of the Morris Water Maze. Rats were evaluated by performance in the maze each day during the experimental and withdrawal periods. Each assessment consisted of two trials. The first was a sample trial in which an escape platform was discovered by trial and error. The second was a test trial in which the platform location was recalled using working memory. Platform placement and start location of the rats were changed every session. It was hypothesized that Vyvanse would effectively enhance spatial working memory, and significantly decrease body weight and adiposity without side effects on activity level and anxiety in rats. Results supported the hypothesis. Compared to control rats, Vyvanse treated rats had significant improvement in working memory and significantly lowered body weight, as well as significantly decreased mesenteric, renal, and epididymal adiposity. No significant effects on activity level and task specific anxiety were noted in experimental animals. When compared to placebo treatment, Vyvanse treatment produced no significant influence on food and water intake. It was concluded that Vyvanse treatment in rats can enhance spatial working memory, and decrease adiposity without suppressing normal appetite.

Longitudinal magnetic resonance imaging reveals striatal hypertrophy in a rat model of long-term stimulant treatment.
Stimulant treatment is highly effective in mitigating symptoms associated with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), though the neurobiological underpinnings of this effect have not been established. Studies using anatomical magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in children with ADHD have suggested that long-term stimulant treatment may improve symptoms of ADHD in part by stimulating striatal hypertrophy. This conclusion is limited, however, as these studies have either used cross-sectional sampling or did not assess the impact of treatment length on their dependent measures. We therefore used longitudinal anatomical MRI in a vehicle-controlled study design to confirm causality regarding stimulant effects on striatal morphology in a rodent model of clinically relevant long-term stimulant treatment. Sprague Dawley rats were orally administered either lisdexamfetamine (LDX, 'Vyvanse') or vehicle (N=12 per group) from postnatal day 25 (PD25, young juvenile) until PD95 (young adult), and imaged one day before and one day after the 70-day course of treatment. Our LDX dosing regimen yielded blood levels of dextroamphetamine comparable to those documented in patients. Longitudinal analysis of striatal volume revealed significant hypertrophy in LDX-treated animals when compared to vehicle-treated controls, with a significant treatment by time point interaction. These findings confirm a causal link between long-term stimulant treatment and striatal hypertrophy, and support utility of longitudinal MRI in rodents as a translational approach for bridging preclinical and clinical research. Having demonstrated comparable morphological effects in both humans and rodents using the same imaging technology, future studies may now use this rodent model to identify the underlying cellular mechanisms and behavioral consequences of stimulant-induced striatal hypertrophy.

Effects of lisdexamfetamine in a rat model of binge-eating.
Binge-eating disorder is a common psychiatric disorder affecting ~2% of adults. Binge-eating was initiated in freely-fed, lean, adult, female rats by giving unpredictable, intermittent access to ground, milk chocolate over four weeks. The rats avidly consumed chocolate during 2 hr binge sessions, with compensatory reductions of normal chow intake in these sessions and the days thereafter. Bodyweights of binge-eating rats were normal. The model's predictive validity was explored using nalmefene (0.1-1.0mg/kg), R-baclofen (1.0-10mg/kg) and SB-334867 (3.0-30 mg/kg) (orexin-1 antagonist), which all selectively decreased chocolate bingeing without reducing chow intake. Sibutramine (0.3-5.0mg/kg) non-selectively reduced chocolate and chow consumption. Olanzapine (0.3-3.0mg/kg) was without effect and rolipram (1.0-10mg/kg) abolished all ingestive behaviour. The pro-drug, lisdexamfetamine (LDX; 0.1-1.5mg/kg), dose-dependently reduced chocolate bingeing by ⩽ 71% without significantly decreasing normal chow intake. Its metabolite, D-amphetamine (0.1-1.0mg/kg), dose-dependently and preferentially decreased chocolate bingeing ⩽ 56%. Using selective antagonists to characterize LDX's actions revealed the reduction of chocolate bingeing was partially blocked by prazosin (α1-adrenoceptor; 0.3 and 1.0mg/kg) and possibly by SCH-23390 (D1; 0.1mg/kg). RX821002 (α2-adrenoceptor; 0.1 and 0.3mg/kg) and raclopride (D2; 0.3 and 0.5mg/kg) were without effect. The results indicate that LDX, via its metabolite, d-amphetamine, reduces chocolate bingeing, partly by indirect activation of α1-adrenoceptors and perhaps D1 receptors.

Effects of lisdexamfetamine dimesylate treatment for ADHD on growth.
To complete an exploratory uncontrolled study of the effects of lisdexamfetamine dimesylate (LDX) on growth of children treated for attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).. Height, weight, and body mass index (BMI) from 281 children ages 6 to 13 years from longitudinal assessments up to 15 months were compared to norms from the Centers for Disease Control.. At study entry, children were taller and heavier than average. Growth delays were largest for weight and BMI, and there was a 13 percentile point decrease in height. Children continued to grow in terms of height while treated with LDX; we found no increase in raw weight or BMI during the study period. LDX treatment was significantly associated with diminished gains in height, weight, and BMI compared to levels that would be expected based on age-appropriate standards from the Centers for Disease Control. Growth delays were greatest for the heaviest and tallest children, for those who had not previously received stimulant therapy, and for those with a greater cumulative exposure to LDX. More work is needed to determine effects on ultimate adult height.. Consistent with prior studies of stimulants, treatment with LDX leads to statistically significant reductions in expected height, weight, and BMI. Growth of patients with ADHD treated with LDX should be closely monitored and corrective action taken should growth delays be observed.
