Filter by:The aim of the current study is set out to find a human model for negative symptoms based on clinical observation that chronic cannabis users express negative symptoms and characterize by the same neurocognitive and electrophysiology characteristics like patient suffer from schizophrenia. Towards that end the first part of the study is set out to explore weather chronic cannabis user's express negative symptoms similar to patient suffer from schizophrenia. The second part of the study will explore the neurocognitive and electrophysiology characteristics of those cannabis users that express negative symptoms. This data will be compared to parallel data of schizophrenia patients with predominantly negative symptom. Several lines of biological and genetic evidence support the cannabinoid hypothesis for schizophrenia. Particularly, it is most significant clinically that the possible involvement of the cannabinoid system in the neural basis for the negative symptoms. This hypothesis based on clinical findings that chronic cannabis use causes a combination of symptoms including apathy, avolition, lack of interest, passivity, and cognitive impairments, the so-called "amotivational syndrome," which resembles the core negative symptoms of schizophrenia in behavioral level as well as the brain level. Both are associated with the functions or integrity of the frontal lobe due to its role in creating self-directed behaviors, deficits in which may underlie alogia, anhedonia, and flat affect. Despite the aforementioned similarities, to date, there is no documentation for such a relationship. Recognition that chronic cannabis users share the same or similar constellation of symptoms and similar neurocognitive and electrophysiology characteristics could provide a key to develop a human model for negative symptoms and an essential tool to comprehensive understanding of the etiology of negative symptoms and development of an innovative therapy. The investigators Hypothesize That Chronic Cannabis Users Would Express the Same Constellation of Behaviors as Negative Symptoms of Schizophrenia; as well as similar neurocognitive and electrophysiology characteristics
This is a single dose pharmacoscintigraphic study investigating the differences in paracetamol absorption between two formulations.
This is an open-label, Phase I study. Study treatments will entail a four-way crossover among three single, ascending, subcutaneous doses and one intravenous dose of MNTX in six healthy normal male volunteers. Blood samples will be obtained to determine plasma pharmacokinetics, dose proportionality for subcutaneous doses, and absolute bioavailability versus an intravenous dose.
Dolutegravir (DTG, GSK1349572) is a next-generation integrase inhibitor (INI) currently in phase 3 clinical trials for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). Fixed-dose combinations (FDCs) have greatly simplified the treatment of patients with HIV. While Atripla (an FDC of tenofovir (TDF), emtricitabine (FTC) and efavirenz (EFV)) has become the preferred first line regimen due in large part to its convenient presentation as a full treatment regimen in a single product, other options are needed. A fixed-dose combination of DTG/abacavir (ABC)/lamivudine (3TC) is one such opportunity. This is a single-center, randomized, open-label, 3-period crossover study in healthy adult subjects to evaluate the single-dose relative bioavailability of two experimental oral DTG 50 mg/ABC 600 mg/3TC 300 mg FDC tablet formulations compared to co-administration of the separate tablet formulations (DTG 50 mg tablet and EPZICOM), with each dose administered in the fasted state. Approximately 18 subjects will be enrolled and randomized to one of 6 different treatment sequences. There will be a screening visit within 30 days prior to the first dose of study drug and a follow up visit within 7-14 days after the last dose. There will be a 7 day washout between doses in each treatment period. The following PK parameters for DTG, ABC and 3TC will be measured: area under the concentration curve from time zero (pre-dose) extrapolated to infinite time (AUC(0-infinity)), Area under the concentration-time curve from time zero (pre-dose) to the time of the last quantifiable concentration (AUC (0-t)), maximum observed concentration (Cmax), lag time before observation of drug concentrations (tlag), time of occurrence of Cmax (tmax), terminal phase half-life (t½), apparent clearance following oral dosing (CL/F) and apparent terminal phase volume of distribution (Vz/F).
This study had an open-label, single-dose design. All subjects received a single dose of 30 mg of intranasal ketorolac. Blood samples for determination of ketorolac plasma levels were obtained pre-dose and at specified time points over 24 hours post-dose. The primary objective of this trial was to compare the pharmacokinetics of intranasal ketorolac between elderly and nonelderly adult subjects. The secondary objective was to evaluate the safety profile of intranasal ketorolac in elderly subjects.
This was a non-randomized, open label study in healthy male and female volunteers. A single intranasal dose of 30 mg ketorolac tromethamine was administered to all subjects on Days 1 and 6; in addition, subjects received a daily intranasal dose of 200 µg fluticasone propionate on Days 2-6. Subjects remained resident in the Clinical Unit from the evening of Day 1 until the morning of Day 2 and from the evening of Day 5 until the morning of Day 7, and made ambulatory visits to the Clinical Unit on the morning of Days 3-5. A post study medical was performed within 7 days of study completion. The objective of this study was to assess the effects of chronic administration of fluticasone propionate on the pharmacokinetics of intranasal ketorolac in healthy male and female subjects.
This study characterizes the pharmacokinetic effect of ASP015K on mycophenolate mofetil in healthy volunteers.
The objective of this study is to explore safety and tolerability of multiple oral doses of ASP015K in healthy volunteers.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the investigational device capacity to detect an intraocular pressure increase (IOP)induced by water intake.
The aim of the study is to assess the ability of healthy subjects to generate a motor adaptation in response to a mechanical perturbation generated by a robotic system for treadmill-based gait training (Lokomat by Hocoma AG, a device that received 510K FDA clearance).
