    Measured: 8 weeks

  2. The safety and tolerability of PD 0332334 in subjects with GAD will be monitored in this study

    Measured: 8 weeks

    Measured: 1 week

  6. Change from Baseline to Days 2- 8 and Weeks 2, 4, 6, 8 on the DAS A (total score)

  10. Change from baseline in the 17-item HAM-D total score at weeks 1, 2, 4, and 8

    Measured: 8 weeks

  11. Change from Baseline in the psychic subscale score of the HAM A (Items 1- 6 and 14) at Week 8

    Measured: 8 weeks

  12. Change from baseline in the somatic subscale score of the HAM-A (items 7 - 13)

    Measured: 8 weeks

    Measured: 8 weeks

  15. Remission rate based on the HAM A at Week 8

    Measured: 8 weeks

  16. Response rate on the clinician-rated CGI-I ate week 1 and week 8

    Measured: 8 weeks

  17. Change from baseline in CGI-S at week 8

    Measured: 8 weeks

  18. Change from baseline to Days 2-8 and weeks 2, 4, 6 and 8 on the GA-VAS (diary)

    Measured: 8 weeks

A Phase 3 study testing PD 0332334 and Paroxetine in people with Generalized Anxiety Disorder, run by Pfizer at 33 sites in 4 countries.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 16 Nov 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 33 sites in United States, Russia, Hungary, Taiwan. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study was stopped early (reason given: Please see Detailed Description for termination reason.). Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The efficacy of PD 0332334 in the treatment of GAD will be measured by the change in the Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale (HAM-A) total scores from baseline observed following 8 weeks of double-blind treatment. (time frame: 8 weeks). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 16 Nov 2012.
