Overview

Evaluate feasibility and acceptability of recruiting Black and Hispanic families for an open label clinical trial of multinutrients while collecting real-time parent-reported child behavior data and collecting at-home biospecimens to explore their potential as biomarkers, in a study of pediatric ADHD.

Description

This study will test the feasibility of recruiting and completing a multinutrient trial with racially and ethnically diverse participants (N=30), focused on Black and Hispanic families, and the acceptability of the intervention, and refined collection methods. The 8-week, open-label, study will evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of collecting (a) real-time ecological momentary assessment (EMA) data on child's target behavior problem, as identified by parent and (b) two types of bio-specimens (blood and urine) collected at home while taking the multinutrients daily.

  • Able and willing to swallow up to 8 pills per day
