Chronology of panic and avoidance , age of onset in panic disorder , and prediction of treatment response . A report from the Cross-National Collaborative Panic Study . The relevance of the chronology between panic disorder and avoidance behavior and of an early , medium or late onset of panic disorder was tested . Groups from the sample of the cross-national collaborative panic study ( CNCPS ) were compared for differences in basic characteristics and for the ability to predict treatment response . Patients who developed avoidance behavior before the full syndrome of panic disorder had less often a full agoraphobia but were not different in their response to treatment . Patients with an early onset of panic disorder suffered more often from agoraphobia . The treatment response was similar in the groups with early , medium or late onset of panic disorder . Neither the chronology between panic disorder and avoidance behavior nor the age of onset of panic disorder predicted outcome in short-term treatment with alprazolam or imipramine .
