Clinical Trial Summary

The objective of the present study is to study paracetamol effects on social pain and empathy under standardized international conditions (ICH-GCP) for planning, conduction and reporting of clinical pharmaceutical studies in humans. The study included MRI imaging of brain activity, analysis of genomic biomarkers potentially explaining interindividual variation. It is controversial whether the effects are of immediate nature or develop during a period of about 10 days. Therefore, the study is separated into two study phases. Single dosing (SD) is applied in study phase 1 and multiple-dosing (MD) in study phase 2. The study compares paracetamol with placebo and in the study phase 1 also with ibuprofen as analgetically active control.
