NCT00534599

Brief Summary

This study is being carried out to see if extended release quetiapine fumarate (Seroquel®XL) when added to standard selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI) / serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitor (SNRI) therapy is effective and safe for the treatment of Generalized Anxiety Disorder in patients with partial or no response to SSRI/SNRI alone or in combination with a benzodiazepine, and if so, how it compares with placebo

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Least Square Mean Change From Randomization to Week 8 in Hamilton Rating Scale for Anxiety (HAM-A) Total Score

    Hamilton Rating Scale for Anxiety (HAM-A) consists of 14 items to evaluate anxiety. Each item is rated on a scale from 0-4, with '0' showing no anxiety (not present) and '4' showing the worst (very severe). Results based on MITT population with available data for this outcome measure. Least square mean of each treatment was adjusted for baseline value.

    Baseline (randomization) and then 8 weeks

Secondary Outcomes (14)

  • Least Square Mean Change From Randomization to Week 8 in Clinical Global Impression-Severity of Illness (CGI-S) Score

    Baseline (randomization) and then 8 weeks

  • Number of Patients With Clinical Global Impression-Global Improvement (CGI-I) Score of "Much/Very Much Improved" at Week 8

    Baseline (randomization) and then 8 weeks

  • Least Square Mean Change From Randomization to Week 8 in HAM-A Psychic Anxiety Subscale Score

    Baseline (randomization) and then 8 weeks

  • Least Square Mean Change From Randomization to Week 8 in HAM-A Somatic Anxiety Subscale Score

    Baseline (randomization) and then 8 weeks

  • Number of Patients With HAM-A Response (≥50% Score Reduction From Randomization) at Week 8

    Baseline (randomization) and then 8 weeks

  • +9 more secondary outcomes
