Trial Outcomes & Findings for Dronabinol Interactions With Cognitive Enhancing Drug in Humans (NCT NCT00842985)

NCT ID: NCT00842985

Last Updated: 2017-05-30

Results Overview

CANTAB RVIP is one component of this computerized battery and is a measure of sustained attention with a working memory component. This study used two subscales of the RVIP. 1. RVP A' ( Target sensitivity, a measure of the ability to detect sequences.) The range is from 0-1; bad to good. 2. RVP B'' ( Response bias, which is a measure of the tendency to respond regardless of whether a target is present. The range is from -1 to +1 ; bad to good The numbers represent probabilities as units on a scale.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Once for each test session (4 total).

Population: Subjects who completed all four treatment sessions. Three of these 15 subjects were not analyzed due to validity concerns of the cognitive data for at least one of the four testing sessions.
