Trial Outcomes & Findings for The Influence of Pressure Pain on [11C]Diprenorphine Binding Potentials (NCT NCT01546155)

NCT ID: NCT01546155

Last Updated: 2017-04-11

Results Overview

Simultaneously collect fMRI-PET data in humans to investigate the change between bold signal evoked by pressure pain and bold signal evoked by non-painful pressure. The PET analyses generates one value per 120 minutes. This value is compared to the other 120 minute scan PET value in order to reflect the change.

Measure
Healthy Volunteers
The PET/fMRI scan session will last up to 120 minutes. Subjects will have 2 MR-PET scan sessions, each lasting up to 120 minutes, with a break between scan sessions. Approximately nine venous blood samples will be taken per scan session with a maximum of 48mL of blood drawn per scan session. Intermittent cuff pain, based on the previously determined Strong ratings, will be applied during one of the two scan sessions. Subjects will rate the pain they feel as a result of the cuff stimuli using the Gracely scale.
