简要总结
The goal of this research study is to find out how well oxytocin works to reduce pain. Oxytocin will be given intravenously (IV) and as a nasal spray. The study team also hopes to find out if the participants age, weight, or sex effects how well the study drug works.
Participants will be exposed to a heater on the skin at a training visit and rate how much pain different temperatures cause. On two separate visits, participants will use a nasal spray and get an IV infusion. After the IV and nasal spray, participants will rate the pain of the same skin heating temperature at various time points for 4 hours.
详细描述
This protocol will utilize a randomized, triple-masked, cross-over study design to compare intravenous (IV) to intranasal (IN) oxytocin administration for analgesia to an experimental pain stimulus in healthy volunteers. Equal numbers of adult men and women; ages 18-55 will be recruited. Participants will report to the research unit for three visits, 1) screening, informed consent, pregnancy test, and training to consistently rate pain from an FDA-approved device to test heat pain. The lowest temperature which causes a pain score of greater than 2 with 5 minutes of heating will be identified, 2) intravenous infusion and self-administered intranasal spray of study drug and 5-minute heat testing at intervals for 4 hours, 3) a repeat of the procedures done at visit two.
Participants will receive intravenous oxytocin, 20 IU and intranasal placebo on one of these visits and intravenous placebo and intranasal oxytocin, 48 IU, on the other. Pain score at the end of 5-minute skin heating will be compared using mathematical modeling of the time course of change in each individual and in the study population as a whole. The effect, if any, on these models of participant age, sex, and weight will be explored.
