Trial Outcomes & Findings for Treatment of Pediatric Anxiety Disorders by Predicting Treatment Response Through Biocellular Markers and Sleep (NCT NCT02189213)

NCT ID: NCT02189213

Last Updated: 2021-10-11

Results Overview

The CGI-I score at the final visit will determine treatment response. The CGI-Improvement scale comprises a one-item measures evaluating the following change from the initiation of treatment on a seven-point scale. The following one query is rated on a seven-point scale: "Compared to the patient's condition at admission to the project \[prior to medication initiation\], this patient's condition is: 1=very much improved since the initiation of treatment; 2=much improved; 3=minimally improved; 4=no change from baseline (the initiation of treatment); 5=minimally worse; 6= much worse; 7=very much worse since the initiation of treatment. CGI-I scale of 1-2 is considered response to treatment. Anything below that is considered non-response to sertraline treatment.

Measure
Sertraline
Sertraline was administered PO to treat anxiety disorders in children and adolescents. One of the following dosing schedules will be used: Sertraline will be titrated from 25mg once a day orally up to 200mg once a day orally, for 12 weeks, or, the titration was stopped at the dose in which the participant shows a full response to the medication or experiences side effects that will inhibit titration.
Healthy Control
Healthy control will not be treated.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Final visit, at 12 weeks of treatment

Population: There were two males and two females in the responder group and two females and one male in the non-responder group.

The CGI-I score at the final visit will determine treatment response. The CGI-Improvement scale comprises a one-item measures evaluating the following change from the initiation of treatment on a seven-point scale. The following one query is rated on a seven-point scale: "Compared to the patient's condition at admission to the project \[prior to medication initiation\], this patient's condition is: 1=very much improved since the initiation of treatment; 2=much improved; 3=minimally improved; 4=no change from baseline (the initiation of treatment); 5=minimally worse; 6= much worse; 7=very much worse since the initiation of treatment. CGI-I scale of 1-2 is considered response to treatment. Anything below that is considered non-response to sertraline treatment.

Measure
Sertraline Responders
n=4 Participants
Responders will have either a score of 1 or 2 on the Clinical Global Impressions (CGI) Improvement Scale. The CGI-Improvement scale comprises a one-item measures evaluating the following change from the initiation of treatment on a seven-point scale. The following one query is rated on a seven-point scale: "Compared to the patient's condition at admission to the project \[prior to medication initiation\], this patient's condition is: 1=very much improved since the initiation of treatment; 2=much improved; 3=minimally improved; 4=no change from baseline (the initiation of treatment); 5=minimally worse; 6= much worse; 7=very much worse since the initiation of treatment. CGI-I scale of 1-2 is considered response to treatment. Anything below that is considered non-response to sertraline treatment.
Sertraline Non-Responders
n=3 Participants
Non-Responders will have a score of 3 or greater than 3 on the Clinical Global Impressions (CGI) Improvement Scale. The CGI-Improvement scale comprises a one-item measures evaluating the following change from the initiation of treatment on a seven-point scale. The following one query is rated on a seven-point scale: "Compared to the patient's condition at admission to the project \[prior to medication initiation\], this patient's condition is: 1=very much improved since the initiation of treatment; 2=much improved; 3=minimally improved; 4=no change from baseline (the initiation of treatment); 5=minimally worse; 6= much worse; 7=very much worse since the initiation of treatment. CGI-I scale of 1-2 is considered response to treatment. Anything below that is considered non-response to sertraline treatment.
