Anxiety clinical trials in Rhode Island: what to expect

Anxiety trials study generalized anxiety disorder, social anxiety, panic disorder and often post-traumatic stress alongside them. The treatments under study range from new medicines and repurposed ones to cognitive behavioral therapy delivered in person, by video or through an app, virtual-reality exposure, and brain stimulation. Many are run by universities and some can be completed largely online, with a small number of in-person visits.

In Rhode Island, recruiting anxiety studies are concentrated in Providence and East Providence.

Who anxiety trials usually look for

Trials name the diagnosis they study and set a minimum symptom score on a standard questionnaire, confirmed by a clinician interview at screening. Adults 18 to 65 are the usual range, with separate studies for teenagers and older adults. Typical exclusions are bipolar disorder, psychosis, a current substance use disorder and, for some medicine trials, daily benzodiazepine use. Stable antidepressant treatment is often allowed.

What taking part involves

After a screening interview, medicine trials run eight to twelve weeks with visits every one to two weeks, questionnaires and sometimes blood work; placebo arms are common. Therapy trials involve weekly sessions for eight to sixteen weeks, often with a comparison group that gets the program later. Some studies add brain imaging or a wearable to track sleep and heart rate. Everything study-related is free, and most trials pay for your time.

Questions worth asking the study team

Which visits must be in person; whether you can continue your current medicine or therapy; the chance of placebo or of a waiting-list group; and what support is available if symptoms get worse during the study.
