Type | Measure | Description | Time frame | Safety issue |
---|---|---|---|---|
Primary | Evaluation of the difference in Hangover Severity Scores between the activity of LACIME Anti-hangover and the activity of PLACEBO. | Evaluation of the difference in Hangover Severity Scores between the activity of LACIME Anti-hangover and the activity of PLACEBO. The measure is the true change in self assessment scores from their baseline. 12 self assessed parameters : Headache, Fatigue, weakness Thirsty Dry mouth Nausea Vomiting Trembling Sweat Depressed Anxiety Trouble Sleeping Sensitivity to light For each of the above symptoms, the Hangover Severity Scale ranges from 0 to 4. The Scores are evaluated according to the following: Absent=0 Mild=1 Moderate=2 Severe=3 Incapacitating=4 Self assessment is achieved: Day 1 : 1h00 before alcohol intake (baseline) Day 1 : Alcohol and meal intake Day 1 : 1h00 after alcohol intake (Visit 1a) Day 1 : 4h00 after alcohol intake (Visit 1b) Day 1 : 15h00 after alcohol intake (Visit 1c) |
Total duration 2 days (Total=16h00: From 1h00 before alcohol intake until 15h after alcohol consumption) | |
Secondary | Evaluation of the difference in Cognitive Performance Score between the activity of LACIME Anti-hangover and the activity of PLACEBO according to "d2" psychometric test. | The test "d2" consists of identifying and marking the letters "d" accompanied by two dashes only in the middle of other annoying characters. The test "d2" is an array containing 14 lines of 47 characters which must all be checked. The recorded figures are : correctly identifyed characters, omissions, confusions, total number of errors. Three indices, reveal the evolution of the concentration: Concentration Performance (error-corrected processing rate) Speed of treatment Fluctuation Rate (precision in treatment and accuracy) Changes of psychometric parameters are evaluated by d2 test at: Day 1 : 1h00 before alcohol intake (baseline) Day 1 : Alcohol and meal intake Day 1 : 1h00 after alcohol intake (Visit 1a) Day 1 : 4h00 after alcohol intake (Visit 1b) Day 1 : 15h00 after alcohol intake (Visit 1c) |
Total duration 2 days (Total=16h00: From 1h00 before alcohol intake until 15h after alcohol consumption) | |
Secondary | Acetaldehyde blood assay (Jones, 2008) | Alcohol is mainly metabolized by hepatic oxydation by NADH / NAD+ enzymatic route. Ingestion of Alcohol provoques an increase in the ratio NADH / NAD+ which disrupts all the other metabolic pathways in equilibrium with this coenzyme. In the first stage of hepatic metabolism, the enzyme dehydrogenase converts alcohol into Acetaldehyde, a very toxic substance that has effects on the entire body. Acetaldehyde is a choice marker to evaluate the level of alcoholic intoxication whenever it is an acute, massive or chronic absorption. Titration of blood concentration of Acetaldehyde in mg/l Changes of blood parameters from baseline are evaluated at: Day 1 : 1h00 before alcohol intake (baseline) Day 1 : Alcohol and meal intake Day 1 : 1h00 after alcohol intake (Visit 1a) Day 1 : 4h00 after alcohol intake (Visit 1b) Day 1 : 15h00 after alcohol intake (Visit 1c) |
Total duration 2 days (Total=16h00: From 1h00 before alcohol intake until 15h after alcohol consumption) |
