Filter by:This Phase 3 clinical trial is designed to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of the acute administration of 3.2 µg of PH94B to relieve symptoms of anxiety in adult subjects with social anxiety disorder (SAD) during an induced public speaking challenge. Subject participation in the Study will last a total of 3 to 7 weeks, depending on the duration of the screening period and intervals between visits. Upon signing an informed consent, all subjects will complete Visit 1 (Screening) and enter a screening period lasting between 3 and 35 days. If subjects meet all eligibility criteria at the end of the screening period, subjects will return for Visit 2 and self-administer the nasal spray and then participate in a 5 minute public speaking challenge. During the public speaking challenge, the subject will be asked for their anxiety score, which will be recorded by a trained observer. At Visit 3, the subjects will undergo the same public speaking procedure once again as they did in Visit 2. One week after the completion of the Visit 3 public speaking challenge, the subject will come back for Visit 4 (Follow-up) that will involve a repeat of the safety and psychiatric assessments conducted at Screening.
This study involves completing some online assessments and an intervention for social anxiety that all involve interactions with other people on a teleconferencing call.
To investigate the efficacy and mechanisms of change of an Internet-delivered transdiagnostic REBT intervention for adolescents with internalizing problems.
This study implements an anxiety-focused, parent-led, therapist-assisted cognitive behavioral teletherapy for parents of youth with ASD and anxiety.
Anxiety disorders affect over a quarter of the population, yet very little is known about the variables that predict treatment outcome. The planned study explores whether a patient's response to a physiological test involving inhalation of carbon dioxide predicts their response to exposure therapy.
Other psychiatric disorders, including anxiety, often co-occur with adult ADHD; with 85% of ADHD patients having at least one other psychiatric condition. The presence of a co-occurring anxiety disorder has been associated with additive clinical effects, leading to more global impairment, poorer outcome, greater resistance to treatment and increased costs of illness. Stimulants are effective first-line treatments for adult ADHD patients, however the literature has mostly examined these treatments in pure ADHD populations (i.e. without other psychiatric disorders). Thus, there is little information to guide physicians in making treatment decisions for patients with ADHD and a co-occurring condition. This trial aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of methylphenidate hydrochloride controlled release capsules (Foquest) in treating adults aged 18-65 years with DSM-5 ADHD with and without a co-occurring anxiety disorder.The study uses a 14-week, randomized, placebo-controlled, cross-over design.
This study implements a parent-led, flexible, individually-tailored cognitive-behavioral intervention for children with ASD and anxiety.
The current study examines therapeutic processes during internet-based cognitive-behavioral therapy for social anxiety disorder. Participants will be randomized to either treatment or wait-list conditions. Participants in the wait-list condition will receive active treatment following the wait-list period.
We propose the first randomized, controlled study to assess the comparative effectiveness of Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) with a medication for anxiety disorders. We will use escitalopram, gold-standard SSRI treatment for patients with anxiety disorders, and will examine the comparative effectiveness of the two treatments on anxiety symptoms and other outcomes important to patients.
Social anxiety disorder (SAD) is a fear of social situations that involve interacting with other people. Although it can be very upsetting, there are ways to help people deal with it. This study aims to explore the use of a new treatment called Metacognitive Therapy (MCT) for social anxiety in children and teenagers. MCT is a one-to-one talking therapy which works by changing people's patterns of attention and thinking in social situations. By doing this, people with SAD can begin to feel more confident and less anxious when interacting with others. Findings suggests that MCT works well when treating adults who have social anxiety. However, this treatment has not yet been used with young people. This study hopes to explore whether MCT can help treat SAD in children and teenagers. This information will help us to plan larger studies in the future. People who would like to take part in this study will be asked to fill in some questionnaires once a week for at least 2 weeks and return these to the researcher in the post. Following this, they will be offered 8 weekly sessions of MCT at their local Child and Adolescent Mental Health Service. Each session will last for about 1 hour. This will involve talking to a clinician about how they think and feel when in social situations, and filling in some more questionnaires. This will allow us to see how their social anxiety changes week-by-week and whether this has improved by the end of treatment (week 8). 1-months after people have had their last session of MCT, they will be asked to complete and return a final set of questionnaires through the post. This will allow us to get a final measure of their social anxiety and see whether any changes in SAD have been maintained. Primary Questions: - Is MCT a feasible and acceptable treatment for social anxiety disorder within a child and adolescent population? - Is MCT associated with improvements in SAD symptoms and functioning? Secondary Questions: - Are benefits associated with MCT replicable across subtypes of social anxiety disorder (general and specific)? - Are any gains associated with MCT for social anxiety disorder maintained at 1 month follow up?
