Active clinical trials for "Anxiety Disorders"

The primary objective is to evaluate the efficacy of two fixed doses (100 mg and 30 mg once daily) of saredutant compared to placebo in patients with generalized anxiety disorder. The secondary objectives are to evaluate the efficacy of saredutant on disability and quality of life in patients with generalized anxiety disorder, and to evaluate blood levels of saredutant.

The purpose of this study is to test whether patients who are receiving mechanical ventilation in the ICU who listened to preferred, relaxing music whenever they desire for as long as they desire will have less anxiety, receive fewer medications, stay in the ICU for a shorter time, and experience less stress than patients who do not listen to music.

To determine the safety and efficacy of SEP-225441 (eszopiclone) in subjects with generalized anxiety disorder (GAD).

To compare by neuroimaging techniques and public speaking, the way social anxiety patients respond after the administration of GW876008, GSK561679, alprazolam and placebo

The purpose of this study is to determine whether cognitive behavior treatment (CBT) can be delivered effectively by providers of different expertise levels in adults age 60 and older in a primary care setting.

The study will look at the effect of MK0777on reducing anxiety in subjects with general anxiety disorder. This is an early phase trial and some specific protocol information is in progress and not publicly available at this time. (Full information is available to trial participants).

The purpose of this study is to characterize the safety and efficacy in patients with generalized anxiety disorder after short- (3 months) and long-term (6 months) use of Pregabalin (Lyrica).

Midazolam is an approved sedative medication used for medical procedures. This study was being done to document the safety and efficacy of midazolam in improving anxiety, heart rate, and blood pressure in patients prior to undergoing Mohs micrographic surgery for the treatment of skin cancer (basal cell carcinoma or squamous cell carcinoma). Midazolam may make a patient relaxed and sleepy, and lower blood pressure. These effects last for about 2 hours. This study had two parts. In the first part, eligible patients were randomized to either receiving one standard dose of midazolam syrup or placebo syrup before their surgery, with neither the patient nor the study team knowing which patient received the study drug. In the second part, patients who were not eligible to participate in the randomized study or who refused to participate in the randomized study were enrolled in a prospective arm where they knew they were receiving midazolam syrup. In the prospective arm, the doses were based on the patient's weight, and patients were given additional doses of midazolam syrup as necessary to control their anxiety. The primary hypothesis of this study was that a single dose of oral midazolam syrup to patients prior undergoing outpatient Mohs micrographic surgery for skin cancer would result in lower anxiety scores at 60 minutes compared to placebo. In addition, the second hypothesis of this study was that patients given oral midazolam would have the rate of adverse events that was not worse than 25% higher than in the placebo group.

The purpose of this research study is to determine whether AstraZeneca's drug AZD7325 is safe and effective in the treatment of generalized anxiety disorder.

The objective of this study was to obtain preliminary open-label data on the efficacy and tolerability of memantine, an anti-glutamatergic medication with a unique pharmacodynamic profile, in individuals with OCD and individuals with GAD. Because glutamatergic hyperactivity in frontal and frontal-subcortical circuits may play a role in the symptomatic expression of OCD, and possibly GAD, agents that reduce glutamatergic neurotransmission should provide unique anti-stress and anti-obsessional benefits. Memantine is a specific, uncompetitive antagonist at the NMDA receptor that blocks sustained activation of the NMDA receptor by high concentrations of glutamate under pathological conditions but rapidly leaves the NMDA channel upon transient physiological activation by low concentrations of glutamate.
