Psychiatry Research is currently conducting clinical trials dealing with anxiety disorders and their symptoms. Qualified clinical trial participants will receive study medication, physical exams and laboratory tests at no cost.
Investigation of a New Treatment for Generalized Anxiety Disorder: The purpose of this study is to find out if an investigational drug, PD 0332334, can treat generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) and if this drug has any effects on other disorders that may be associated with GAD. An investigational drug is one that is not approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA). We are investigating the safety and efficacy of PD 0332334 by comparing it to placebo (an inactive substance) and paroxetine (a drug currently approved for GAD treatment). Participants will be randomly assigned either PD 0332334, paroxetine, or placebo. Participation involves 9 visits over approximately 12 weeks, and those who finish the study may be compensated up to $675.
