Trial Outcomes & Findings for POC Study in Partially Responsive Generalized Anxiety Disorder (NCT NCT02310568)

NCT ID: NCT02310568

Last Updated: 2017-01-09

Results Overview

The HAM-A scale was a clinician rated interview scale designed to measure the signs and symptoms of anxiety. It had 14-items to rate the intensity of psychic and somatic anxiety on a 5-point severity scale. Each item ranging from 0 (not present) to 4 (very severe) were summed up to give a total possible score of 0 (not present) to 56 (very severe), where lower scores indicates less anxiety.

Participant Flow

This was a sequential parallel study consisting of 2 stages: 4 week randomized treatment period (Stage 1) followed by a 4 week treatment period (Stage 2). Participants randomized to placebo for Stage 1, received either PF-06372865 or placebo in Stage 2 and participants randomized to PF-06372865 in Stage 1 were assigned to Placebo in Stage 2.

SDS was a copyrighted, three question instrument designed to assess functional impairment associated with mental disorders in three domains: work impairment, social impairment, and impairment of family life or home responsibilities. Disability scores were reported for each of the questions (subscale scores range from 0 to 10) and a total disability score was calculated as the sum of scores for each question (total scores range from 0 to 30). Higher scores reflect greater impairment.

Timeframe: Week 1, 2, 3

Population: Stage 1 full analysis set: All randomized participants who received at least 1 dose of study treatment. Here, 'n' signifies those participants who were evaluable at specified time point for each arm, respectively.

The HAM-A scale was a clinician rated interview scale designed to measure the signs and symptoms of anxiety. It had 14-items to rate the intensity of psychic and somatic anxiety on a 5-point severity scale. Each item ranging from 0 (not present) to 4 (very severe) were summed up to give a total possible score of 0 (not present) to 56 (very severe), where lower scores indicates less anxiety.

A responder was defined as a participant with \>= to 50 percent decrease in their total HAM-A score from baseline to the last week in the stage (Week 4 in Stage 1, Week 8 in Stage 2). The HAM-A scale was a clinician rated interview scale designed to measure the signs and symptoms of anxiety. It had 14-items to rate the intensity of psychic and somatic anxiety on a 5-point severity scale. Each item ranging from 0 (not present) to 4 (very severe) were summed up to give a total possible score of 0 (not present) to 56 (very severe), where lower scores indicates less anxiety.

CGI-I was a 7-point clinician rated scale ranging from 1 (very much improved) to 7 (very much worse). Improvement was defined as a score of 1 (very much improved), 2 (much improved), or 3 (minimally improved), 4 (no change), 5 (minimally worse), 6 (much worse) or 7 (very much worse) on the scale. Higher score indicated more affected. Change is equal to score at observation minus score at baseline.

Population: Full analysis set for Stage 1 and Placebo Non-Responder set for Stage 2. Here, number of participants analyzed (N) signifies those participants who were evaluable for this outcome measure.

The CGI-S consisted of a single 7-point rating score of illness severity, was completed by a clinician. Raters selected one response based on the following question, "Considering your total clinical experience with that particular population, how mentally ill was your participant at that time?" Scores were: 1 (normal, not ill at all), 2 (borderline mentally ill), 3 (mildly ill), 4 (moderately ill), 5 (markedly ill) 6 (severely ill) or 7 (among the most severely ill participants). Higher scores indicate more severity.

The HAM-A scale was a clinician interview-administered scale designed to measure the signs and symptoms of anxiety. It had 14-items to rate the intensity of psychic and somatic anxiety on a 5-point severity scale. Psychic subscale of the HAM-A was the sum of 7 items. Each item ranging from 0 (not present) to 4 (very severe) were summed up to give a total possible score of 0 (not present) to 28 (very severe), where lower scores indicates less anxiety.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Stage 1: Week 1 up to Week 4 and Stage 2: Week 5 up to Week 8

Population: Full analysis set for Stage 1 was defined as all participants randomized and who had received at least 1 dose of randomized treatment. The Stage 2 placebo non-responder set was defined as the subset of subjects in the Stage 2 placebo set who had both a \<50% reduction in HAM-A between Stage 1 baseline and Week 4, and HAM-A value of \>= 16 at Week 4.

Percentage of participants with HAM-A total score less than or equal to 7 in the last week of the Stage (Week 4 in Stage 1, Week 8 in Stage 2). The HAM-A scale was a clinician rated interview scale designed to measure the signs and symptoms of anxiety. It had 14-items to rate the intensity of psychic and somatic anxiety on a 5-point severity scale. Each item ranging from 0 (not present) to 4 (very severe) were summed up to give a total possible score of 0 (not present) to 56 (very severe), where lower scores indicates less anxiety.
