Filter by:This multi-site Phase 3 clinical trial is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to identify the safety and efficacy of DPI 386 nasal gel (intranasal scopolamine gel) for the prevention and treatment of nausea associated with motion sickness. The study will be conducted aboard military ships undergoing military operations or aboard commercial boats rented for the study to obtain data in a real world environment. The study will have three arms: DPI-386 nasal gel, placebo nasal gel, and Transderm Scop® (1.0 mg/72 hours; transdermal scopolamine patch [TDS], the current standard of care for the treatment of motion sickness). The study will include 120 subjects per arm, for a total of 360 subjects (n=360). A double-dummy design will be used to mask the treatment assignment. All subjects will receive both a patch and nasal gel: DPI-386 Nasal Gel + placebo patch, placebo nasal gel + placebo patch, or TDS patch + placebo nasal gel.
Randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled investigating the efficacy of tradipitant in the treatment of motion sickness.
This is an open-label, case control study of 180 patients presenting motion sickness, who will perform a motion sickness assessment questionnaire before and after treatment with dry ginger (Z. officinale) extract.
Sea sickness represents a major limitation on the performance of ships' crew. One of the challenges faced by the physician in the motion sickness clinic when prescribing anti-sea sickness medication is to select the appropriate drug for the patient. Difficulties arise due to high variability in the response to different drugs. In the case of sea sickness, the current procedure is to examine the drug's efficacy in each individual during real time exposure to sea conditions. A number of studies have documented the presence of sea sickness drug receptors in the vestibular nuclei, which determine the vestibular time constant. Two clinical vestibular tests which evaluate the time constant are the Velocity Step and OKAN tests. The purpose of the proposed study is to evaluate the influence of motion sickness drugs on the vestibular time constant, as a possible bioequivalent of drug potency in the individual subject. Eighty crew members will be recruited and divided into groups responsive and non-responsive to the sea sickness drugs scopolamine and meclizine. Subjects having a Wiker score of 7 in waves 1 meter high without drug treatment, and no improvement in symptoms after treatment will be defined as non-responsive to sea sickness drugs. Subjects having a Wiker score of 7 in waves 1 meter high without drug treatment, and a Wiker score of 4 or less after treatment, will be defined as responsive to drug therapy. Kwells, Bonine and placebo, will be assigned to each subject in a random, double-blind fashion. Each group will perform the Velocity Step and OKAN tests before, one and two hours after drug or placebo administration.
Current virtual reality device makes motion sickness and visual fatigue having limitation for recreation and other clinical approaches. Still there is no standardized quantification of motion sickness and visual fatigue measurement with objective approach. Current biofeedback accompanied with virtual reality would be promising tool for stress relief.
Sea sickness syndrome is present for 80% of persons on board when the boat rotation missions Astrolabe, sometimes there is a risk of very significant dehydration. A special unit specialized in the fundamental study of the vestibular system (inner ear), sensory organ at the base of visual-vestibular conflict inducing this syndrome, also provides medical support for parabolic flights (flight reproducing weightlessness) where this syndrome is strongly present. The goal of the study is to assess the frequency of occurrence of this sea sickness syndrome on the Astrolabe, to understand the triggers (type of boat movements, personality traits, anxiety / stress) without changing habits on board for those on board taking a antinaupathique treatment given by the ship's doctor. This study will be done in collaboration between INSERM U 1075 (France) and the Laboratory of military research VIPER specialized in extreme environments (Belgium). The ultimate goal will be to provide the best recommendations and the best treatment regimen to alleviate as best as possible the symptoms of people on board of the Astrolabe so scientists on board can perform their work.
In this comparative bioavailability and in vivo skin adhesion study, the impact of minor changes in qualitative composition of polyiso-Butylenes (PIB) from a different supplier and change of the manufacturing line of the micro porous membrane will be tested.

Nausea is a common and distressing experience that often precedes vomiting. Amongst symptoms emanating from the gastrointestinal (GI) tract nausea can be considered somewhat unique, as on one hand it represents a normal, highly conserved, physiological response to an ingested toxin yet on the other it may indicate pathology. Nausea may also arise as a consequence of pharmaco- and chemotherapeutic interventions. Nausea negatively impacts on quality of life, adherence to treatment and is a cause for discontinuation of the development of novel compounds. Experimentally, nausea can be induced in humans using a visually induced motion stimulus. Previously we have developed a 10-minute motion video of the landscape rotating as seen from the perspective of a subject standing on Westminster Bridge, London. The tilted and rotating view visual display makes the subject perceive that they are spinning round and round on a spot tilted away from centre of gravity due to circular vection. This motion video induced nausea in approximately 50% of healthy participants and caused a reduction in cardiac vagal tone, a validated measure of the parasympathetic nervous system branch on the autonomic nervous system. We therefore are evaluating the role of external transcutaneous vagal nerve stimulation in visually induced motion sickness.
Part 1, the pharmacokinetic (PK) phase, will expand upon the pilot study conducted at Naval Medical Research Laboratory (NAMRL) and has the goal of determining bioavailability and time to Cmax in a larger representative sample. Part 2, the efficacy phase, is to determine the efficacy of the aqueous spray solution via exposure to a nausea-inducing stimulus.
