Trial Outcomes & Findings for Effects of Two Doses of a Common Cold Treatment on Alertness (NCT NCT01686646)
NCT ID: NCT01686646
Last Updated: 2014-12-08
Results Overview
The RVIP assessed the performance of visual attention mechanisms in remaining vigilant to periodically occurring events. The number of accurate responses to RVIP task was determined from the cognitive function computerised output. Participants monitored a series of single numbers (0-9) appearing in the centre of the screen. During the RVIP task, participants responded to consecutive sequences of three odd or three even numbers by pressing the corresponding response button as quickly and accurately as possible. This was identified in the output file by a value of '1' in 'TARGET=1' column. Also, the response time (in seconds) was recorded in the 'RT' column. If the subject correctly responded to the target, this was identified by a value of '1' in the 'CORRECT=1' column. The number of accurate responses was calculated as the total number of records where 'CORRECT=1' had a value of '1'. The test lasted approximately 9 minutes and number of accurate responses to stimulus was calculated.

The mean time of accurate responses was defined as the mean reaction time for the correct responses. For records with '1' in the 'CORRECT=1' column, the mean time of accurate response was calculated as the summation of the response time values divided by number of records with '1' in the 'CORRECT=1' column. The result was multiplied by 1000 to convert into milliseconds (msecs).

The no. of inaccurate responses to RVIP was determined from cognitive function computerised output. Participants monitored a series of single numbers (0-9) appearing in the centre of screen. They responded to consecutive sequences of 3 odd or even numbers by pressing the corresponding response button. This was identified in the output file by a value of '1' in the 'TARGET=1' column. If a subject responded incorrectly to stimuli (pressed the response button at the wrong time), this was identified by a value of '-1' in the 'CORRECT=1' column. The no. of incorrect responses was calculated as the total no. of records where 'CORRECT=1' had a value of '-1'. If the subject missed a target (failed to press the response button within 600 msecs of being presented with a string of 3 consecutive even or odd numbers), this was considered a missed response and was calculated as the no. of records where there was a value of '1' in the 'TARGET=1' column and a value of '0' in the 'CORRECT=1' column.

SECONDARY outcome
Timeframe: Baseline, 60 minutes and up to 120 minutes post treatment administrationPopulation: ITT population: all randomized participants who received study treatment and had at least one post-baseline efficacy evaluation.
Auditory and visual attention of participants was evaluated using a validated Sustained Attention task. For the sustained auditory attention task, participants were required to respond whenever they heard the number '8' in a continuous stream of numbers presented through headphones. This was identified in the output file by a value of '8' in the 'NUMBER' column. For the sustained visual attention task, participants were required to respond to the letter 's' every time it appeared in a continuous stream of letters presented on a screen. This was identified in the output file by a value of 's' in the 'LETTER' column. If the subject correctly responded to the target, this was identified by a value of '1' in the 'CORRECT=1' column. The number of accurate responses was calculated as the total number of records where 'CORRECT=1' had a value of '1'.
