About this study
Official title: A Double-blind, Randomized, Placebo-controlled Study to Evaluate the Effects of a Theanine for Stress Relief Formulation on Stress, Burnout Component, Mood, and Sleep in Individuals Who Report Occasional Moderate or High Levels of Stress
The purpose of this study is to assess the effectiveness and safety of the theanine for stress relief formulation versus placebo on stress, burnout component, mood and sleep
Read the detailed description
This is a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the effects of a theanine for stress relief formulation on stress, burnout component, mood, and sleep in individuals who report occasional moderate or high levels of stress.
Participants will be asked to completed assessments and questionnaires as well as obtain a self saliva sample.
The primary objective is to evaluate the median change in response to the theanine formulation on stress from completed questionnaires, Perceived Stress Scale-14 (PSS-14) and the State Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI) for stress.
The secondary objective is to evaluate the median change in response to the theanine formulation on stress from completed questionnaires, Depression, Anxiety and Stress Scale (DASS-21), Leeds Sleep Evaluation Questionnaires (LSEQ), Maslach Burnout Inventory General Survey (MBI-GS) and Short Form 36 Health Survey and Cortisol levels.

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Perceived Stress Scale (PSS-14)
Assessment of the mean change in the results of the Perceived Stress Scale (PSS-14) from baseline. There are 14 items and total scores range from 0-56. The lower the score indicates a lower level of stress.
Measured: 28 days
State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI)
Assessment of the mean change in the results of the State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI) from baseline. This is a 20-item questionnaire which includes separate measures of state and trait anxiety. The total scores range from 0-63. The lower the score indicates a better outcome.
Measured: 28 days
Secondary outcomes (5)
Depression, Anxiety and Stress Scale-21 (DASS-21)
Assessment of the mean change in the results of Depression, Anxiety and Stress Scale-21 (DASS-21) from baseline. There are 21 items consisting of three scales (Depression, Anxiety and Stress) contains 7 items and scores from each scale can range from 0-56. The lower the scores for each scale indicates a better outcome.
Measured: 28 days
Leeds Sleep Evaluation Questionnaire (LSEQ)
Assessment of the mean change in the results of the Leeds Sleep Evaluation Questionnaires (LSEQ) from baseline. This questionnaire consists of ten self-rating questions related to four consecutive aspects of sleep (getting to sleep, quality of sleep, awakening from sleep and behavior following sleep). The total LSEQ score can range from 0-100. The higher the total global LSEQ score indicates a better outcome.
Measured: 28 days
Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI-GS)
Assessment of the mean change in the results of Maslach Burnout Inventory (MBI-GS) from baseline. This survey consists of 16 statements of job-related feelings. It consists of 3 subscales including Emotional Exhaustion, Depersonalization and Professional Accomplishment. The total score can range from 0 to 96. The lower the score for the Emotional Exhaustion and Depersonalization components represent a better outcome and a higher score for the Professional Accomplishment represents a better outcome.
Measured: 28 days
Short Form -36 Health Survey (SF-36)
Assessment of the mean change in the results of the Short Form-36 Health Survey (SF-36) from baseline. This is a 36-item questionnaire that covers eight domains including physical functioning, bodily pain, role limitations due to physical health problems, role limitations due to personal or emotional problems, emotional well-being, social functioning, energy/fatigue and general health perceptions. The scores from each domain can range from 0 to 100. The higher the scores for each domain indicates a better outcome.
Measured: 28 days
Cortisol Levels
Assessment of the mean change in the results of Cortisol levels from baseline
Measured: 28 days

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A study testing Theanine for stress relief formulation in people with Stress, run by Supplement Formulators, Inc. at 1 site in United States.
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 14 inclusion and 36 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 26 Aug 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 1 site in United States. 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.
Are results available for this study?
The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.
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?
Perceived Stress Scale (PSS-14) (time frame: 28 days). 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?
On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT05854017, which also lists 30 linked publications.
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 26 Aug 2026.
