Pilot of a randomised controlled trial of the selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor sertraline versus cognitive behavioural therapy for anxiety symptoms in people with generalised anxiety disorder who have failed to respond to low-intensity psychological treatments as defined by the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence guidelines.

Significant recruitment challenges led to premature closure of this trial for generalised anxiety disorder, and recruiting participants from primary care rather than psychological therapy services may be more successful.
