Description

Randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial of an evidence-based antidepressant, sertraline, in youth (N=120) with generalized, separation and/or social anxiety disorders, seeks to evaluate the predictive value of plasma EV signatures.

Randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial of an evidence-based antidepressant, sertraline, in youth (N=120) with generalized, separation and/or social anxiety disorders, seeks to evaluate the predictive value of plasma EV signatures. Patients will be randomized to sertraline (25-200 mg/day) or placebo (3:1) and total plasma EVs will be collected at baseline and serially during the course of the 12-week treatment period.
